Echo Dots, shows etc are reduced on Amazon. I just got a kids one for £26.99 down from £64.99.

Thanks so much everyone, I'm loving this thread, used both the hobbycraft and Oliver bonas tip with no problems and also the reduced barbie from game and now have some great stocking fillers!

For the person looking for rugby related gifts, magazines direct have rugby related magazines (amongst other subjects) and are giving away a £10 Amazon gift card with a subscription at the moment.

Came on to ask about on that ass - signed up but freebie not arrived yet. Would quite like it for dh bday at end of oct then can decide if I want another for Xmas 😂😂

also went for the bluey toy advent calendar 😬 it is coming from China and is due this week - I’ll let you know if it arrives and what it’s like (for adding to drawers so will disassemble).

Still on trying to get refunds from trespass 🤦‍♀️

Highly recommend Vinted for dress up onesies and considering using for ps3 games for kids for Xmas.

Can someone explain bubble tea to me. Is it a kit to make fizzy drinks like the old soda streams? Can you tell I’m an old fogey 😂

Had an email from Smyths Toys this morning, they have some reductions, and free delivery with over £20 spend.

@NightSku0 Do they have good dates on them? I saw them in Asda a couple of months back but was with DD so couldn't check dates and haven't seen them since.

@Spaghettihulahoops my dd loves bubble tea, but I don't quite get it! The boxed ones are essentially a tea bag which when you've let it sit for a bit you bung some fruit syrup in and then add little balls with fruit syrup inside them. They're tapioca I believe but flavoured.

My 12 year old would tell you they're marvellous, and the ones you buy when you're out are nice enough with so many different flavours combos, but they're predominantly fruit juice or milky stuff with chewy balls in. As I say I don't quite get it but I'm an old fogey too! So I just pay, enthuse about how lovely it is so she thinks I'm a with it mum, whilst longing to get home to have a nice cup of Yorkshire tea!

Thank you! Just bought one from the "I Love" series (family favourite) and also 1980s sweet wrappers. Free click and collect.

You’re very welcome ☺️ @TheGirlWhoLived

This looks nice for a fairy garden for the previous person who was looking for one!

The infamous oven is one of their reductions!

Lovely Tisserand mindfulness set of 3 aromatherapy roller balls down from £17 to £7.50. Make a nice stocking filler or teacher gift

If anyone’s kids like Cinnamoroll (I think that’s how it’s spelt!) I ordered some keyrings and plushes from Aliexpress and can recommend the sellers, they’ve just arrived today after ordering on the 16th Sept and they’re brilliant, my girls will love them.

There’s £2.50 bonus cashback on Quidco today when you spend £10 on advent calendars at some shops (inc the Works) first 4000 people to opt in. I won’t bother adding my link to referrals as I only posted it on the 29th! But you get £5 if you sign up through it.

Daughter would like some Ugg boots for Xmas. I can see Ugg website offers 10% off first order. Just wondered if that's the best I'll get?

Youve reminded me! Ugg had a really good sale on last November. I'm hoping they do it again this year! Slippers were around £30 and they had loads of boots too. I got myself a pair of boots for around £60 (saving £100) and a few pairs of slippers for presents. Could you hold out until then and see if they have any offers on?

Yes please! 😁

@TheGriffle yes please!

Picked up these bargains at Tesco today (75% off). Had to visit two Tesco’s on the hunt for something else entirely. Also saw special edition Sharpies set - 30 pens (with maze ball) for £6.00 which seemed a bargain too.

Has anyone seen amazing discounts on Sketchers slip-ins? I've been asked to get some but the recipient seems to think they'll only cost about £20 😂 I can stretch to about £40-50 but all the cheaper deals I've found are sold out in size 10 😭

I was checking out the schleich/Papo shop toysandlearning for some schleich unicorns I saw today, and they have some great deals on - for example
Dino and vehicle £14.99

they also have different versions of this Robot for £2.99, it’s called a ‘Santa special’ so I don’t know if they change which figures this applies to

@AliasGraceful Tkmaxx have lots of Skechers, hit and miss size wise though

Sadly they haven't got the slip-ins. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll keep an eye out in case any come in 🙂

@ChristmasFanatic @PumpkinDart I’ve hopefully attached screenshots of my order page which shows a picture of the items I got and the sellers name.

I’m really happy with them, good quality and they’re super cute, my girls will love them.
