I did find one toy in £10 Tuesday at Boots. It’s a wooden dinosaur lion, whatever one of those is. It looks more like a toy lion with a big nose to me, but I know nothing.

Here's a link to the dinosaur lion at Boots.

I went to the big shopping centre near me today, had a good look in Boots and found the "a little something" range all on half price. Not familiar with it myself, but looks ideal for my DD10 who is just starting to get interested in skin care and a little make-up experimentation.

I picked up the citus fusion body duo which is a shower creme and body mist for £2.50 and the mini face pallette for £3.50, the whole range is half price though so worth a look.

I grabbed Pokemon labyrinth for £10 which I thought was a food price, it’s been sat at around £12.99 the last few days on offer then has dropped a bit further.

grabbed the new kinetic sand sweet/chocolate set for £16, not a huge saving but is something ticked off the list!

trying to find some inspiration for a nearly 5 year old boy who doesn’t give many clues away about what he would like, with a November birthday too in which I already struggled to buy for.

will share anything I see during my browsing!

Some great deals on play-doh on Amazon prime day, just picked up this pack of 22 pots (We've already got all the cutters etc) for 39% off, lots of other varieties/sets with chunky discounts too. I also got the party bag variety, 24 mini pots and 24 cutters for £14.99 which is 18% off and perfect for my DD upcoming party.

twistable crayons would make a good stocking filler

My 4 and Half has been playing with Knex at school and the box has dropped to 25 so thinking ill pick that up!

Bought a specially designed foot hot water bottle last year from Aldi’s Middle Aisle of Treasures for just this reason and it was a game changer. It was so lovely to have under my desk that I bought another one for a colleague for a Christmas present and she LOVED it. Uses it for a lot of the year.
Haven’t used this Amazon one but it’s nearly identical, and down to £12.99 on a Prime deal.

A code (AUTUMN50 and AUTUMN40). They've stopped working but someone said that OLDFRIEND gave 50% off at the weekend.

When out grocery shopping check the freezers carefully.

A lot of shops have things on clearance to make room for christmas party stuff. A lot is unmarked, as in no red reduced stickers, I has prawns in asda for 38p.

Morrisons had a few different things like for example, frozen gateaux, I had no room in the freezer as full of prawns.

My absolute favourite shower gel - Elizabeth Arden Green Tea, which smells just gorgeous - is on a crazy offer with Prime down to £8.22 for a big 500ml pump bottle (from £14.92).
Strong recommend and works well as a gift to yourself.

That’s the kind of bargain I am after, thank you. Ordered two

I know lots of people will be looking for it but I’m looking for the cheapest possible PlayStation 5. We weren’t going to get one for DS but after a rough Christmas last year we have decided to go for it! Ideally one I can pay monthly. Hoping that I would see it on prime day but nothing so far!
