    Thanks to all who posted about the Kung Zhu arena.
    Boots 3 for 2 sounds good to me :)

    Boba Fett voice changer Helmet is £19.99 at Argos if anyone's looking. Probably be cheaper nearer Christmas but I got one just in case!
    if i had known then what i know now
  • DD wanted zhu zhu hamster princess bits, searched town yesterday (all the big toy shops, argos, entertainer etc..) and all out of stock, thought i would try the small toyshop on the way home and managed to find the ball room and the prince hamster and for half the price of e-bay and amazon, could not find the castle anywhere but she will be happy with the ballroom. Also picked up a monster high doll in Argos.

    Managed to find ben and hollys castle in tesco last week for dd2 and it was priced at £14.99 (half the price of other shops).

    I saw the toy story Barbie a few weeks ago in Sainsbury's (not sure if they still have them but might be worth a look).

    I think i have finished my christmas shopping (unless i see a real bargain).

    Good luck to all of you who are still trying to track down toys.

    Fireman Sam Deluxe Firestation £29.99 at ELC, in stock at the moment

    £5 off code makes up for the £4.95 delivery!!

    (and while we're at it, Debenhams have the Fireman Sam Helmet with Sounds for £11.90, there was a 10% off code floating about too this morning but I cannot find it ANYWHERE now?!)

    Hi :)

    Just wondered if anyone can help. My DD is 4 & is desperate for a new doll. I have absolutely no idea what's a good doll & what's not. I want one that she will play with but don't want to spend lots of money. I don't mind £20ish but really don't want to spend £60 :eek:

    Any help is really appreciated, not really in the know as of yet ;)

    Sorry - I've not read the entire thread but I have done a fruitless seach of it - but has anyone come across the Monster High iCoffins anywhere in the UK?

    All I can find are ones that have to be shipped from America, with the postage making it about £50-60. I've made that mistake before with kids toys, when they've been much cheaper once the English stores stock them, but I'm going to have a very disappointed little girl if I can't source one before Christmas. Still, you have to be sensible sometimes, hey?

    MTIA for any suggestions.

    To the poster looking for Annabelle bits, the very best place I have found after years of buying annabelle stuff (first my DD, now foster kids) is a seller on ebay called paperted. She makes all her annabelle clothes and will often personalise it too. Brilliant seller, stuff has always arrived in good time, and it is always excellent quality, unlike most shop bought stuff.
