I got my starfish order today - ordered on the 18th so quite a wait, but it is nice.

Interested in this too if and has info it would be appreciated. Thanks

Finally had a delivery email for baby born. No idea if all my items are coming though! Find out tomorrow!

@butterfliesandbee found it!

Same, got my DPD emails today, Baby Born inbound tomorrow. Still waiting on Starfish, ordered on the 19th, hopefully doesn't turn out to be this year's American Candy.

@butterfliesandbee with the shipping the 3 pack of 100mgo 340g honey comes to £8.43 each, and it's £8.50 each from Tesco for the 'UK's best brand' rather than this one from nz. So not that much of a bargain unless you know your honey brands I guess!

The 85mgo one is cheaper, as outlined by the pp.

Could go down a right honey rabbit hole here!

Thank you so much.

Bit of a random one but got a book of paper airplane designs in Lidl today for £2.99 says 6+ but my 4 year old will love this with help! Lots of other cutting design books too!

Has anyone got any suggestions on good books for a 5 year old boy? I love Harper Collins but find the website infuriating to search through. If it helps anyone else I found 3 Octonauts books which are £4 each when bought as a bundle with the discount.

I ordered on the 18th and got a dispatch email this afternoon and a DPD acknowledgement too. Hopefully you will get yours soon.

Argos has play doh brunch set for £15 down from £40

Sorry to be a pest! I have Searched the Lidl site but couldn’t find this. Can you post a pic please of the plane book?

What is the steen info i have missed this

Mine's exactly the same ☹️. I certainly won't shop with them again.

Yes, that was it - I got the 4 x 225g UMF15+ ones - the discount plus p&p brings it down to about £12.50 per jar. A quick google showed other brands coming in around £20-£35 per jar for this size & strength...

It's Steen's manuka honey, in their clearance section (due to having changed the packaging). There is an additional discount code to apply: 60OFFLAST
I used it on the 4 x MGO515 ones (which is a higher concentration, so I figure good for colds, flu etc) which are £99.16 in the clearance section and the code takes it down to £39.67 + £5 P&P, which is about £11/jar (not £12.50 which I miscalculated is as earlier)... a lot cheaper than other places seem to be for that strength...

I may have exaggerated a bit about buying it for everyone 😄

Was gonna ask about this as nothing this end! Taking a while!

Here you go - they were at the end of an aisle in book display stand!

Stellar pans are amazing!

I have done the P Louise 2 for £1 thing. Don't even want it but it seemed too good a bargain to miss! Mine just kept automatically adding 2, one free and one normal price.

Has anyone's amazon pjs been dispatched yet? Mine are due to arrive 1st to 3rd Oct and yet to be dispatched :/

https://www.theperfumeshop.com/the-perfume-shop/the-perfume-shop-advent-calendar/eau-de-parfum-spray/p/99530EDPJU?varSel=1332296 This is £99 but going through Topcashback you'll get 4.5% back.

Great idea. Will have a look. Hopefully will be a bluelight discount aswell

I have loved reading the narwhal books by Ben Clanton with mine, and he also wrote tater tales - king of the world and the greatest in the world about a potato that look really good but we haven’t read those yet!

I got this today for a birthday gift and it’s a really sizeable box.
