    Has anyone seen the cake stands in Middlesbrough/Stockton? What are they like, the wire ones or the ones where it has 'plates'? They had some lovely ones in HB a while ago and I had to wait until I got paid before I could get one but of course they were all gone by the time I got back :( was gutted!
    they had 5 in stockton yesterday hon, on the bottom shelf near the cups, in a round box £3.99 each ;)

    Thanks cookiemonster, I managed to grab one before I started work :) They're a really good bargain.

    Got 3 more of the WoW miniature boxes too, 3 out of 6 overall had a sandbox tiger loot card in so well worth the money! Although be aware that the UDE points can no longer be redeemed as Blizzard isn't working with Upper Deck to make the TCG anymore. The site says that they're looking to find a system where any points can be redeemed so might be worth hanging on to, but I wouldn't buy them specifically for this.

  • Has anyone seen any '60 minute Scrapbooker' kits in the Manchester area this week? I bought one in Leigh last week and wish i'd bought more! I've tried Bolton, Burnden park, Farnworth and the one in Liverpool centre with no luck.

The local charity shop sells their books at £2.50 so this is a real bargain.:eek: I got Alphabet weekends by Elizabeth Noble, a womens life by Rachel Billington and the accidental marathon by Lucy Hawking rrp £21 total. They had lots of titles and a variety of genres. :D

    Slightly OT, but they had the 60 min scrapbook kits in TK Maxx yesterday for 9.99 (RRP £30), so the HB ones are a real bargain :)
