apparently said pyjamas are ‘iconic’ in her words…
they are the official yummy sushi pyjamas, as worn in Buffy the Vampire Slayer in a show that was made decades before DD was born, but that she is obsessed with…

Your daughter is correct, completely iconic! I spent years wanting those very pjs.

My bargain Fiorelli bags arrived this morning and the tote bag is so lovely that I’m really torn as to just keeping it for me rather than gifting it 😂

Did you get a dispatch email @ThreeB? I think my order will be due but have had no notification.

Oh, and if you'll use the tote then keep it! We all need treats.

I got a shipping note from Fiorelli yesterday and then shipping updates (both email and WhatsApp) from DHL last night and this morning.

sadly I don’t think I will get enough use from the Tote to justify keeping it but it is soooooooooo beautiful.

I've snapped up some MASQD travel brush sets in a container for stockings via Boots £10 Tuesday - for some reason MN wont let me post a link though.

£6 off a £60 spend at Argos if it helps anybody.

TheWeeDonkeyFella · 19/08/2025 13:49

Thanks @ThreeB, no notification for me yet so I can get on with errands this afternoon. I expect if they've had so many orders the usual delivery timeframe might slip a bit.

JD Sports has a very decent sale on for anyone with sporty kids to buy for. I managed to pick up some great bits to put by

Ive just received an order from bohomoon. They do stainless steel jewellery. They have a £10 sale on and it includes the lucky dips. I got 2 lucky dips (each with 3 items) and a necklace for £21 as I got an extra 30% off ordering through tik tok rather than their website. They did send me a code on the website though which is BESTIE20

Im on the lookout for party bag style fillers, like an activity book etc, for ages 3-6 if anyone sees anything :) I've got those bags they can colour in already, for my very very soon wedding 😅 5 kids total.

A long time since my wedding, but we googled fr wedding activity sheets or kids and a ton of free ones to print at home.

Congratulations! I was looking at kids stuff for less the other day and they have loads at good prices - so much I ended up with a massive basket and couldn’t face the option paralysis to actually check out

Amazon Haul is now on the website rather than just the app , hopefully will make it easier to navigate next time a discount is offered . I’ve had two of my orders dispatched now , but oddly not the first and largest one ordered last Wednesday.

I’m going to do my usual yearly mention of this website for cheap children’s books https://booksforbugs.co.uk/

Most books £4.99 but often a clearance section cheaper and I believe they will have some £1 christmas ones up September time.
Small independent family business as well which is lovely. Always very quick postage.

Powerbank that was popular last year down to just under £9 if anyone is looking for a stocking filler!

Picked up clearance sale items during RL lunchtime browse. H&M Micro fibre hair wrap turban towel reduced to £2. TKMaxx had final reductions so picked up Shell Hair Claws at £1 alongside trendy keyring bag charms at 70p/£1. Definitely worth the rummage for bargain stocking fillers! I’m still contemplating making my own DIY keyring bag charms since I liked the look of the new season ones in Accessorize but not the price! I’m not paying £12 for pom poms however nice they look.

Thank you for this @ThisLuckyEagle 🙂

Might be a silly idea but we have a rule that we don't put anything 'new' in a Christmas Eve box except new PJs and consumables (DS gets enough rubbish from family) we tend to just put in board games, cups, DVDs etc that we pull out each year.

I discovered you can upload a picture to ChatGPT and ask it to turn it into colouring pages so I've done a few of those from past Christmases (one of DC playing in the snow, one of our cat in front of the Xmas tree etc) I've just printed these at home on slightly thicker paper. I think my DC will absolutely love this!
