I got 2 travel essential bags with smellies £18 down to £4.50 (MIL & Dad's GF), a star Trek Mug for my Dad £6 down to £1.50, A fairtrade Tea Gift Set for mum £12 down to £3, 3 small photo frames for sisters £8 down to £2 and a petrol can money box for my bro £10 down to £2.50!

Also got myself a lovely box set photo album - with 3 photo albums inside for £2.50!

When I got home I remembered I had 4 sisters to buy for :doh:not 3 (well, 5 but one is only 9)

Are they all your sisters or are some SILs? Sounds like you got some good deals. Counting Christmas and Birthdays (and not counting Alice and OH) I have to get six female presents and twelve male presents (and my mum always gives her smellies to me) so I don't get to take much advantage of all the smellies deals.

If you visit and your boys like trains, it's worth going to Locomotion at Shildon which is a few miles north of Darlington. They have the original buildings where Timothy Hackworth (railway pioneer) lived and worked and lots of history about railway development. Then there's a huge shed with loads of engines, carriages and trucks that are part of the National Rail Musum collection. It's a worth a visit if you're ever up here, and it's free entry too.

Oooh thanks, I'll have to take Alice there - she's mad about trains since she got a toy railway and some Thomas books.

Sami, was that when 2 babies suffocated? The hammocks were used incorrectly, one was hung from a hook rather than the frame and the baby was put head at foot end right up rather than in the middle and the other the baby had injections and pain relief then placed on her side. The older ones there was a worry that metal washers scraping on metal could cause shards of metal to fall but the new ones all have plastic washers.

Sorry disappeared, mummy came round.

Sami, I was told in my boots, cuz its not a big store, they are getting new deliveries every other day till the end of the sale from all the bigger branches to get rid of it all. Apparently mine had loads of toys in this morning, and there was still tonnes of ITNG stuff left, but I didnt buy any of it
