Ah, I think you might be right Cuwins. I only enquired about the s’mores set and have just seen that mentioned on the sale packs of marshmallows…
If people are interested in anything else then it might be worth emailing them to double check dates. They are really responsive and
helpful

Literally looked in my youngest daughters wardrobe earlier & thought how much stuff she has that I need to sort out and she doesn't need anymore clothes.
Accidentally visit Hype website & order a hufflepuff hoodie & the cutest hedwig T-shirt for her. £20 delivered.
The designs look lovely to be fair. Bit different.
Also the Playmobil set she wants for her birthday was cheaper at bargain max than anywhere else so that's also been sorted.
Thanks @Soscrewed

There is a everything £5 sale at Gruum at ghe moment. I love the hard shampoo and conditioner bars, lots of nice gifts for anyone eco conscious.

Is everyone spending over £50 for free delivery at the naked marshmallow company or paying £3.95? Is there a free delivery code flying about? x

I paid the delivery

Hi, glad I saw this! I was really puzzled when I bought a couple of new fitted sheets from asda and 0.30 came up for one but full price for the other one?

I’ve jumped on the s’mores kit bandwagon - figured it should hopefully do for Halloween if not Christmas

So you’re telling me I need to eat £50 of marshmallows in a month?

Looking for advice and/or bargains.

Jigsaw puzzle board / roll up mat. If anyone knows of any decent priced ones, I’d be thankful. Same with Disney and Harry potter Jigsaws (1000 piece or more ones).
Also looking for a cheap Christmas jigsaw for the elf to bring.

My 6 year old loves doing these with my partner and they’ll both be over the moon with new ones (and I’ll be relieved that a mat means I can get my dining table back whilst they’re ongoing!)

@GirlWithTheYellowHat Sure, I’ll post it. Message me your address. It’s shade 03 (kind of Barbie bright pink)

@IsThisIt2021 i was in the works earlier and I’m pretty sure I saw a puzzle mat on clearance. It’s not online so must be store specific. Sorry I didn’t catch the price though

also worth keeping an eye on ravensburger puzzles on Amazon or WH Smith. I often find bargain puzzles on both of those

@Willow4987

Thank you, I’ll have a look next time I’m near the works and I’ll keep an eye on Amazon.

@whereareyousleep Sorry, been out so just seen your question - No, definitely wasn’t that much, think I paid £3.99 postage. £8 seems a bit steep!

I don't think It's a legitimate website sorry.

There's no address on the contact us page which is usually a give away. And that all the prices are weird amounts like £17.19 cause they are Chinese prices converted

@IsThisIt2021 have you tried Vinted for jigsaws? There's normally loads of all sorts on there and often "new" with / without tags. Got DD a great Tom and Jerry one last year, sealed, for £1.

For jigsaws I get a lot from charity shops. The boxes are usually fine

Charity shops often have puzzle rolls for only a couple of pounds too.

I’m looking for a birthday present for a 9 year old girl. She loves top model books but I’ve bought them for her so many times. Would like something different but similar.

My own dd loved the klutz one with the wee hangers when she was wee but it doesn’t seem to exist any more. Budget of around £20.

Also doing my mum’s Christmas shopping. Looking for kids warm/fleecy pjs. Usually get in M and S but they all seem to be quite thin. I’m out of the way of shopping for kids as my youngest is 17. Any help would be appreciated.

@nicky2512 how about this for the 9yo girl. I got one for my daughter & niece last year who are that age & they enjoyed them. This is a mega bargain at that price.

This definitely looks like a scam I'm afraid- unknown company, prices too good to be true and weird amounts. I'd try to stop the transaction and keep an eye on your bank account for a while in case your card details have been nicked. Maybe even cancel the card and order a new one.

@Beachcomber74

Oh @hby9628 thank you!! Wouldn’t have thought of that. Dd had some of those and we both loved them. Brilliant.
Have never bought from there before.

@nicky2512 it's a good website. Worth keeping an eye on but I often forget of its existence for some reason.

@hby9628 there's a website for bargain max, I had no idea!! We don't have any shops like this locally. That's my bedtime browsing sorted!

@nicky2512 primark is usually good for fleecy pjs but it might just be a bit early in the year for them.
