dont know if it would be worth your while taking a cake with you see if they would stock them... you never know, it would prob be your best bet of getting a stockist in the town centre as most of the other shops are chainstores rather than independants let me know how you get on as it might save me a trip into town if theres none or not worth the bother

I will let you know....... oh and I will just happen to have some leaflets in my bag;)

Firstly THANK YOU EVERYONE

I read this thread from front to back this week and last night made a "Baby Cake" for my SIL, she is due a baby girl in the next 3 weeks (Please god let it be a girl!).

I got everything from Asda and did spend a small fortune but it is their first baby and it is my brother so I dont mind.

I know I could have done it cheaper if Id shopped around but I was Sooooooo Excited to make it I just went a bit mad lol.

So for £50.....

My Ingredients.....
25 nappies
7 Body Suits
Hooded bath towel
Wash Mitt
2 Shawls
3 frilly pants
8 pairs of socks
3 bibs
2 pairs scratch mitts
1 outfit with hat
3 food pots
Silicone bib
3 plates
2 bowls
Cutlrey
Cup
2 dummies
And teddy!

and finally a picture!!!!!!!




Im Soooooooooooooo Chuffed with myself so than you all for the ideas!

I think my fave is the white frilly sock roses and The Frilly knicker roses I love too!

Trollydolly - fabtastic cake - its soooooooo pretty & jampacked with lots of goodies - they'll love it!!! beware though it does really become addictive!!

Irlrip - just on the blanket issue - I was in Adams the other day and their blankets are all on 3 for 2 - I bought a few of the white ones (got stars on them) cos they're really nice & I can never find white/cream blankets cheap and they also have pink with hearts on and blue with cars I think! They had a cute white teddy on reduced to £3.99 from £5.99 I think!

Now apologies peeps but I need to do a little rant!!! I am getting really fed up with these stores not having the same stock all the time and being really lacking in the blanket departments - been to 2 Asdas today to try and get the Winnie The Pooh hooded cuddle robe I used for my Winnie cake the other day cos as you know I've had another order for one exactly the same!!! :eek: Well couldn't get that & couldn't get the clothing I put inside either!! Asda was rubbish for WTP stuff!! Anyone seen any WTP stuff on their travels? please desperate here!! Got one more Asda to try for the cuddle robe & then I'm stumped!! :eek: This it the problem I guess when you're not in a position to buy wholesale!

Right rant over - sorry!!
