Does anyone know anything about drones? DS has asked for one but I haven’t a clue what to look for. Hoping to spend no more than £50 but I don’t know if that’s possible.

I'm afraid we have had only bad experiences with drones. Even with a large garden they crash and break so easily then parts lost, and you aren't allowed to fly them on campsites etc. I think if you lived near beach they would be okay. Or maybe my dh is more clumsy than most!

Picked up the Lego city house with electric car for £20 in Sainsbury's yesterday - inflated original price of £47 but cheapest elsewhere is about £32 so still a bargain. Was actually looking for the space roller coaster of course but can't pass up a bargain.

Just a heads up regarding the neon signs. I ordered one for about £20 thinking that was the price. It was taken from my bank and then I got an email saying the adjustments were made and the cost was £230 (this was just a name I ordered). I did get a refund but want to save anyone else the faff. It isn’t clear when you first purchase.

OMG, that's ridiculous! Trading standards report worthy?!

Honeyandwine · 22/10/2023 08:18

Thank you for the person who mentioned the megladon further reduction at sainsburies. We got two for £17 each. Cannot believe how cheap they were!

Any murder mystery book recommendations for dd aged 13.
And where does one go to buy a Venus fly trap?

Try the ruby in the smoke by Philip Pullman. I loved those books when I was that age.

@BlackFlyChardonnay Where did you find the kirby squishmallow please?

Sports Direct

There are some here online, but my local store had various others.

@Georgieporgie29 Sorry I pressed post before I finished haha.
I've just had notification that ASOS have 25% of sports brands today including north face. Might be worth a look if they have that coat your husband wanted Smile

Just coming on to say, beauty boxes. Never had any problem cancelling but some require you to have received the box before you can cancel. Some have/stipulate very short time between ordering and receiving as they may have a set day of the month for sending their boxes out so if you are ordering close to a cut off date it might make things trickier timewise so DO check out the terms and conditions so you know what you are potentially committing to. Fortune really does favour the brave tho lol

Hi all, only just starting to get into these threads and on number 6 already! I have a £10 on over £30 spend for Boden voucher if anyone will use it? Expires 7th Nov

oriel2013 · 22/10/2023 08:43

£10 off that should say!

Any murder mystery book recommendations for dd aged 13.
And where does one go to buy a Venus fly trap?

My dd likes the danganronpa manga series. There's also a game for the PlayStation. She said it's murder mystery. I havent personally read it but it's popular amongst her friendship group. (13-15).

We saw little Venus fly traps in garden centres. But be careful pretending to feed them, apparently it can cause them to die.

I've also seen little lego type Venus fly trap sets on temu.

Our local independent garden centre has them inside with all the other house plants, never seen them at any of the chain ones though.

Feeling quite miffed that the Megalodon trucks have gone down so much after I was so pleased with getting one for £35! Oh well, it's already been passed to the grandparents who are getting it, so not my money I suppose. Never dreamt it would go significantly lower

MerylSqueak · 22/10/2023 00:29

Can anyone recommend an absolutely, positively leakproof dounle insulated cup please?

Check out Klean Kanteen, I think they’ve just bought out some new ones. I’m not looking because I really really don’t need any more!

Georgieporgie29 · 22/10/2023 09:09

@Scoleah thank you so much for this. Unfortunately it’s not on there, but I appreciate you letting me know so I could check. It’s the murdo jacket which I’m guessing is a popular one (which is just my luck 🤣)

Georgieporgie29 · 22/10/2023 09:11

Just had this email off Boden. Think it’s standard reductions for everyone (decreasing by date) but maybe it will work with the £10 off codes people have?

I'd love that please @oriel2013 if you still have it. Do you know if it works with already discounted stuff or is it just full price? I've had a £40 dress sitting in my basket for. Week but can't bring myself to pay the postage and don't want anything that would bring it up to the free postage limit!

Ouch it is expensive!! I've found it on here for £289 but it's only in Black. Seem to have all sizes. Murdo coat I've never used the site before, but they have good reviews on trust pilot!

MerylSqueak · 22/10/2023 09:51

Thank you for all thermal mug recommendations. Is there a particular Contigo to go for? The one I have leaks really badly, although it was cheap in Tesco so they might have been selling off a line that didn't work well.

OliviaFlaversham · 22/10/2023 09:52

I agree, that is shocking! Apologies my end for also falling for it.

Georgieporgie29 · 22/10/2023 09:56

Oh wow, thanks so much for that @Scoleah he’s after the green one but he may be persuaded by the black one at that price
