Thread 14 - the one where we track our Fahlo turtles while snuggling under our heated blankets

Holding thread for @Reastie

See the second post on Thread 13 for the usual information.

Anyone seen any Turkish delight anywhere? I normally get my dad some but not having much luck!

@buckeejit You can never have too many board games can't fit in our cupboard already so not sure where the ones I've bought this year are going.

Even bought Ten-Bone bowling that you play with the dog 🙈 we don't even have a dog luckily my parents do who we see lots

Was holding off on stocking fillers as was hoping some small Xmas plush would be replenished but not sure how long to wait. Has anyone seen any cheap small Xmas plush anywhere? Just wanted to pop on the top of their stockings.

10% off toys in B&M until end of Nov

I got some lovely looking Turkish delight this time from Lakeland. I'm sure B&M also had some in last time I looked as that's where I usually get mine.

I'm looking for Turkish delight with no luck too! It used to be everywhere

MyMemory do genuine Apple Watch bands at clearance prices, they come in the Apple packaging too. Stock changes fairly frequently - this is current selection, filtered to show 'in stock' only:

I know right! Normally Lidl is my friend but I'm a bit disappointed in their Christmas stuff this year.

Also a bit annoyed a couple of suggestions I have given to family have gone oos and they havnt bought them so now I will have to think up more ideas!

@WimbyAce Nice Christmas soft toys in Card Factory- got a nice Gingerbread man for £4 and they had some cheaper than that

Finally got into the Christmas spirit over the weekend and started my shopping.
I am looking to order a phone for my DS from Very. Does anyone know if the new account welcome code can be used on sale items.
TIA.

@buckeejit sorry to hear you had a rubbish day yesterday and I hope today has been better.
I couldn't find the info on the website so just decided the easiest way was to ask the company directly. They replied pretty quickly. Once you'd ask the question, I was curious too!

Can anyone help?!

DH has asked for 2 things. Paul A Young chocolates (he shut all his shops a few months ago) and a Clarins for men exfoliating cleanser which they have stopped making. I will get other chocs from great recommendations.

BUT

Can anyone very brilliant find the Clarins Mens Exfoliating cleanser for me? It is out of stock or only on very scammy looking sites with awful trustpilot reviews.....

this one :)

The set that looks like it contains it is false advertising and actually contains a basic face wash so that has been returned this morning :(

Thanks so much

Ah I had seen the card factory ones, might have to go with those.

Thanks looks like I can order to collect from my local lakeland. We don't have many shops locally so q limited where I buy from.

Has anyone who bought the claw machine from Temu actually tried it? I set it all up last night, and much like the real things, couldn't actually pick anything up with it! I got it free, so I'm not overly disappointed, but I can't really give it to my children if they won't be able to get a prize, the frustration levels would be immense!

I am so sorry for my lack of BRIDAL BEAUTY update!!

Of all times to have a family crisis !

And then the other thread is full.

A PP poster didn't want spoilers , which I am glad to know about !

I didn't think !

Shall I do a BRIDAL Beauty Christmas box reveal thread ?

Or just let people know privately?

To be fair ....I still haven't unpacked it all yet as I was so overwhelmed with what I saw just on the top layer
🤣!

@bizzey I checked for your updates so many times, I’ve become a little obsessed with beauty boxes 😅
You can set up a new thread and link it here. Or I noticed another poster in the last thread set their photos as sensitive so that you had to click to view it (so no spoilers)

Re. the family crisis - I hope everything is okay!

There were some little ones on toysforapound. I'll see if I can still find them

Oh that's annoying, they seem to have sold out.

Some Poundlands have soft toys in Santa hats.

Anybody else not had any shipping email from White Fox? Order placed 20th Nov and order still marked as unfulfilled!

@bizzey I want to see too!!
Sorry to hear about a family crisis- hope everything ok...

I had 'unfulfilled' on my body shop order because they had cancelled it. You may want to check, sorry.

@rheasmummy Join us in the waiting room over at 'White fox hoodies' thread, also in Christmas section!

The kids' artwork picture frames have already been discussed, but these look like a cheaper alternative at £14.71
The main differences I can see are that they don't 'open up' like the DaVinci ones, or have any glass/plastic in window.

I often see Turkish delight in garden centres if that helps anyone
