@OneHornedFlyingPurplePeopleEater why not give crimpits to the nieces? Perhaps with the cookbook..

Moppet5 · 05/12/2023 14:43

I ordered 2 Fahlo bracelets (1 was free) on 27th, got an email on Friday to say they it was on its way. Royal Mail tracking didn’t work until just now, saying due tomorrow

Ah yes, I had planned the crimpits as one half of the present. I need 3-4 of them so was hoping to find a good deal :)

But, especially in the case of the neice I don't know well, I don't know if she has one or might think it's a shit present, so wanted something else too 😆

My craft gin box arrived. Very pleased for £18 but I dont think its worth 45 so will cancel subscription.

VeruccaSalty · 05/12/2023 14:52

Well maybe one more box. So nice to get a parcel for me for a change!

Mads96 · 05/12/2023 15:04

Looking for a good deal on a Le Creuset Travel Mug for BIL. Prices are varying online but when I find a cheaper one delivery is usually £5! So ending up over budget.

Thanks 🥰

Can anyone recommend a make/model reasonable priced stovetop coffee maker? I don't drink coffee but dh had asked for one. Thanks

Just been to my local Lidl and managed to find some goodies - though I agree with others that the stuff there is a bit random overall. Not sure whether it is just my local one or all lidls but it was rammed full of people in the middle aisles and a bit like a jumble sale where some stuff was just completely mixed up with other stuff! 😝🫣

Anyway….. their wrapping paper was down to 50p.
managed to get DS some Xmas pjs for £2.50 and a fleeced lined zip up hoodie for £3.50
& got DD a lcd LOL drawing board for £4.99 (thought it would be handy for car journeys) & also managed to get her a windproof/waterproof jacket for £3.99.

Did go to another Lidl this morning on my way home and managed to get some slipper socks for my oldest DS for £1.99 and some gingerbread tealight candles for 99p.

All in all I’m pretty happy with my finds 😍

Can anyone suggest somewhere I can get new harness and leads for our two female dogs? (Treat for Xmas along with their stockings) Not too expensive but not plain 😝 I’ve seen some lovely ones on Etsy but at £40 each it’s a bit more than I wanted to spend!

toprump · 05/12/2023 15:18

I've just opened my Hallmark Big Box of Christmas which was on these threads months ago.

I'd completely forgotten it also contained two boxes of crackers, plus loads of Xmas cards, so now I have an absolute surplus! Luckily they will keep. Just in case anyone else had forgotten what it contained!

Ilovepugs2017 · 05/12/2023 15:21

Also these make nice gifts. Picked them up in my local Asda this morning. £3 each but also in 3 for 2 offer so had 3 of them for £6

I'm so sorry if it's already been discussed but I've missed two threads🥲 Is anyone having issues with Oodie? I received an apology email yesterday basically saying they've been super busy but no estimate of a delivery date. Two separate orders placed at the beginning of November & neither have arrived

mumonthehill · 05/12/2023 15:45

Oh @Beingacatbed i have a dress in my basket but was dithering but if the code come through will buy! Thanks

Holidayqueen1 · 05/12/2023 16:01

The classic is Bialetti - they last forever. They cost about £20. More if you want a decorated one.

barms90 · 05/12/2023 16:37

beetr00 · 05/12/2023 16:39
