You are all wonderful and I’m now going back to my mince pie and stollen (never too early!).

Super seconds festival

Thank you for the tip for the paper bouquet books, have bought three of them!

Gruffalo Granny is half price on amazon just in case anyone hasn't seen!

That’s the one, thank you ☺️

Air toobz are brilliant. We've had ours for two years now and my son adores playing with them (he will be 7 in December) we also got someone to buy the extension pack which is really good as he can make some really creative designs with it. Fun for all the family and comes out a lot when he has friends over to play

Thompson & Morgan seeds now have a free delivery offer before the end of 14th Sept with this code:

Me too- also bought 3! They look beautiful- a lovely, substantial looking gift for the money.

I'm planning on making photo calendars for gifts this year, if anyone sees any deals! Or if you do it annually, when is the best time to buy?!

I bought the Thompson and morgan seeds -
thanks to the OP who posted these previously as I think my best friend will love them, but any suggestions of a nice tin to store them in and make it more of a gift? I’ve not found much online below about £20 which seems mad!

Thank you so much, the first of many purchases! She’ll love that x

The ones I bought last year were vacuum packed and in plain ish black and grey bags so hopefully no issues hiding them. I didn’t get mine in time for Christmas unfortunately so they are ready to go for this year, Ill unpack them a day or two early so they can puff out.

Sorry can't link as I bought via the app but just got a Degusta advent calendar from Groupon for 26.49. I used a discount code EAT25 which expires tomorrow

Hi do you know what size these socks are please? I can’t see it when I click the link. Thanks

Some pretty tins here from £3.60 @hannahbanana2007

Thank you for all the bargains!

Some good deals on Amazon at the moment on Duplo, with a general %discount and also a £5 off £50 on many sets. Stocked up for DS!

Thank you so much these look fab!😊

Anyone know of discounts for Emma Bridgewater mugs? It's a large I need for an October birthday. They're pricey, so even free p&p would help. Thanks ❤️

Hi all i'm looking for a bargainous backpack for travelling for 18yo ds who is off travelling around Asia for 5 months in a January if anyone sees one.
