I love these threads. Favourite bit of mumsnet! Many name changes but been around since the year of the huge pink unicorn we all bought! You also all successfully reunited us with a reindeer Teddy called Otis who my son takes to bed every night ❤️

DC are not interested in toys anymore which makes me sad but looking for inspiration on here!

Quite a bit in the Argos clearance currently although very limited stock!

I remember the Christmas miracle of Otis! @Mumbythesea1 🦌🥰

I’ve just bought my children’s main / big Christmas gifts…. £60 for an Amazon tablet!! Spontaneous decision they’re getting the same big gift!! With different cases of course. The green one was £50 but not in stock anywhere near me unfortunately. Still, absolute bargain! Almost half price.

Depending on age, they may still like one toy gift

We bought teenage neighbour a remote controlled car (cool one aimed at adults) and he absolutely loved it, his favourite gift that Christmas.

He said he thought he was too old for toys, but then Christmas day it just felt wrong and boring, he had nothing to play with and just felt flat. So when we turned up with that, it was perfect

Obviously I wouldn't spend a big chunk of the budget on a toy, but depending on age and if this is the first no toy Christmas, I wouldn't rule out one or two bargain more grown up toys

I mean, who hasn't bought a scalextric set or a doll house "for the kids" and sat playing with it when they've long since wandered off 😂 we all like to be kids at Christmas!

I think it's around November.

Has anyone spotted lovely (bargainous) presents for students? One boy and one girl

Try Temptation gifts @Realfastfoodie they're also on TCB

Thank you I have ordered a few bits for stocking fillers.

Dds were looking at Fahlo bracelets at a wildlife centre yesterday. I know they’re mentioned a lot on here. Are they usually on offer on Black Friday? Currently 3 for 2 on Fahlo website.

Just ordered this powerbank. The offer is on the green one only.
I purchased a normal size one last year that was on offer from a post on here and it is really good.

I’ve been in all the Homebargains within a 20mile radius for those exploding kitten! Well done you for getting a pack 🤩

Bohomoon have a £10 sale on and free postage this weekend. They do mystery goodie bags three items for £10.

There were quite a few in mine, if they still have any next time I’m in I’ll grab one for you and post

I just managed to get an exploding kittens in mine but no hello kitty cards! They also had some zoobles secret party animals for 99p each. And some kawaii night lights for £3.99 that I thought were cute! I might check again in a week or so for hello kitty cards!

I always find the home bargains mentions stressful as I hate knowing there are good bargains out there but not near me 😂
No exploding kittens in mine either. I also saw someone say they have the little rubber ducks for 79p (they are £1.50 in the entertainer) but couldn't find those either, so not sure if that one is true.
Think someone also mentioned previously the pawpaw squishmallow lip balm but mine only has care bears. Lots of love heart stuff too if you have younger ones into that.

Same here @Moonnstarz - nothing of interest in any HB I have been in recently 😿

Though - tbf - I did get a nice velvet stocking in there one Xmas after they were mentioned on here!

No voucher showing for me 😪

Oh no. I tried to go on my order to look but it wont take me to the item. Just saying buy again and coming up at £19 now
