    In Telford today -

    Dalek alarm clock with lights and voice £4.99
    Megabloks Magnawheels £4.99
    Rosanna Cotswold mugs £2.49
    Rosanna Dottie Baroque cups and saucers £2.49. These are where the tea and coffee are in the hat box type packaging.
    4 pack of disposable high chair placemat, fork and spoon, bib and sippy cup for babies. Great for your nappy bag in case of emergencies for £1.49. I like the mats especially when highchairs tend to be grotty when you're out and I never remember anti bac wipes so can only babywipe them.

    OMG that is awful, how much is the motorist screwed now a days.

    But on another not, 1 thing can i say not to buy, well i really didn't like it is the cotton wool pads.

    They are a 2 in a pack for 99p and they are so rough on the face.

    I'll stick to my 1 pack for £1.49 from tesco.
