HELP please!!! Not sure if I imagined it or not??

I'm sure thread or two back... (it's so hard to search on the app), someone said B&M had little boxes of seashell shaped chocolates for less than a pound (79p??)

Been looking in a few and can't find!

Im looking for something less than a £1 to wrap up as bulk presents and these would have been perfect!

Anyone remember? Thanks!

Tesco have little pocket diaries for £1 and mince pie fudge for £1.25

Some years ago, bakedin mug cake kits were a thing - I am looking for something similar? ready mix mug cake type things (without or without a mug!) for some teenagers with additional needs who need simple steps to adulthood 🙂I have found dr oetker ones in tesco - any other suggestions?

Marks and spencer have them in bottles they're lovely

HopefullyHopeless · 10/12/2023 21:13

@slithytoveisascientist I saw some nice ones in M&S which came with a tube-squishing-key which is handy

beetr00 · 10/12/2023 21:14

@minsmum would a pocket size edition be acceptable?

minsmum - my go to often for hardback books is Amazon

minsmum · 10/12/2023 21:29

Thank you but he is quite particular and wants the normal sized one and Amazon don't do the classic hard back. I will go to Waterstones if I have to but I don't like paying full price for this

Callipygion · 10/12/2023 21:32

There’s one for £17.80 that’s ‘like new’ and it’s free P&P @minsmumThe Hobbit

£16.50 at Abe Books Abe Books Hobbit

I saw some in TK Maxx today if that's any good? All the ingredients were either in a mug or a jar

@Reastie we’re on page 38

minsmum · 10/12/2023 22:05

Thank you that's wonderful I will have a look

@MarshmallowsOnToast, I think it was Home Bargains with the Guylian, as I was minded to get some.

Babynumberthreeee · 10/12/2023 22:10

@Seasonofthewitches you may be sorted now but I got my dad this if he may enjoy a light hearted thriller

Could You Survive Midsomer?: Can you avoid a bizarre death in England's most dangerous county? (Midsomer Murders) https://amzn.eu/d/aQHbZrP slightly over budget at £12 but its entertaining

slipperypenguin · 10/12/2023 22:12

Any codes or discounts for the entertainer?

slipperypenguin · 10/12/2023 22:13

And any deals or discounts for sol de janiero?

slipperypenguin · 10/12/2023 22:17

Mads96 · 10/12/2023 13:33

I have £10 off £60 at the entertainer if it would help anyone 😊

Me please! @Mads96

Please can anyone recommend an air fryer recipe book. DD has the Ninja - I think it has 2 sections? I've looked on Amazon and there are quite a few on there but the reviews aren't great. I'm guessing they'd want straight forward recipes, not necessarily traditional - they especially enjoy Italian, Spanish, Mexican and Indian food - both in high pressure jobs with long hours so pretty pushed for time especially during the week so I imagine would prefer not too much faffing. I am completely clueless as I'm a very traditional cook without an airfryer. TIA.

Thelifeofawife · 10/12/2023 22:46

@slipperypenguin Notino seems to be the best price for sol de janeiro

Thanks for all the help with Air Up bottles. Having discussed the details with him he’s decided he doesn’t want one.
