O mine got fake ones of those, one I bought on Amazon and I think the other shein. They were over them quickly. My 11yo is also messy, guaranteed to stain anything the first time she wears it, so I absolutely won’t spend £££ on things. I only bought the WF as was on sale. Even her school leavers hoody which is navy has paint all down it and she’s not even finished school yet 🤦‍♀️

I was thinking of a fake but she said i wont wear a fake. She wont know though and your right they will be over them quick. She harped on for a labubu got one was interested for a day and now its never mentioned.
Im gonna take a look on amazon or even vinted.

Ah, I think that is what I meant by a spout. How do you get it clean?

It kind of pops open and you stick it in the dishwasher or hand-wash it. We've never had any problems with them. I would also recommend them (just remember to add a dash of cold water as they stay so hot you will burn yourself)

£5.40 for these Squish alongs squishmallow type thingies, might be cute for a stocking

Famousthehero · 19/07/2025 12:07

£10 for the hug a lumps Goose and a few others for £12

i picked up one of these in a shop a while ago and didn’t want to put it down. Think it was the rabbit… they’re heavy in a really nice way

That's a great price for those (if you can wait for early August). DD (5) is obsessed by them!

Oh we have the duck and we love him. Can highly recommend to anyone considering (especially anyone with Autisic kids as they are very sensory friendly in a weighted blanket sort of way) Great price!

£21 for the Cookeez makery oven

not sure if it may drop further towards Christmas, this is a good price historically

My hero! I've been salivating over this since Christmas 2023 but couldn't justify the price. Ordered. Thank you!

MamaK19 · 19/07/2025 19:12

Is this worth getting? Not sure if it’s a one time wonder time thing?

Definitely a one-time 'Wow' with the transformation. Then you're just left with a very expensive teddy (that smells good). As far as I know, you can reload it, but obviously it's not a surprise at that point.

We got the Cookeez toaster for Christmas, whose value is also mainly in the 'reveal' moment, but my DD still plays with the teddy and it still has its scent. As for the oven, £40 is outrageous; £20 is still overpriced but doable for me. I'm prepared for it not to live up to the hype. 😁

Can anyone remember the website for the oodies seconds we all got 2 maybe three years ago?
DS is probably in need of a new one by now.

Online Home Store. Or a seller on EBay called True Face Uk.

Waitrose has some Hask shampoos sang haircare 33% off. I got the tea tree, which is divine.

Tooteefrootee · 20/07/2025 10:58

Amazon have decent deals on a couple of LOL Surprise dolls (ones in the balls) atm. I may have been stocking up for stockings, parties etc... I would suggest that 5-7 is probably the best age range for these, though they say from 3.

L.O.L. Surprise Water Balloon Surprise - down to £3.60. These were £10 in a local toy shop
