Just been to T & the chocs in bags above are £1.20 BOGOF. Qty as MLB listed.
For those not able to get cadbury miniatures the after 8's are on offer @ £1.42 ish & I'm sure you could cover these boxes.
ES mints BOGOF ends tomorrow.

I am in need of value bird feed. I though T had a basic bag for about £ odd but no joy today instore or on the system I did see it & even held it, should have bought it there & then!, anyone know of very cheap feed as we are adding it to our reindeer food.
Thanks

They had cheap birdfood in Poundland yesterday. They also do the "fat balls" which would be great wrapped up as snowmen/Rudolph's for any keen birdwatchers (aka my parents) - for their birdtable, not them, I mean!

Hello all :j
upsy daisy -love your bits and pieces..........:T

qwiksave...........the mouse is so cute:T

Well, at last got down town to get a few bits and bobs................diaries to cover (49p from sue ryder shop), lovely woolen embroidered beret for sons girlfriend for £1.49, some notepads (10p each) from local stationers ............then on to sweet shop for bon bons, marshmallows, little 'millions' for joke pills, cheap choccys to pop in a jar and some bars of chocolate to cover. Got some paper from craft shop for that. Was going to get some felt from the little sewing shop but the lad we look after was with me and by then he was driving me senseless.........I was starting to forget what I wanted...............lol
Got home and wished I'd got some lovely patterned paper to do kitchen organiser..........think I'll nip down tomorrow.
So now I've got two more ''make it yourself'' snowmen, empty drinking choc.jar was white so filled that with bon bons, added googly eyes, some shaped lips and found a lilac fluffy bed sock for the hat..............young girl who cleans for me loves lilac so she''ll love it. Joke pill bottles now filled up.........just need to cover diaries and choccy bars...........our lad decided he wanted to make something for his sister plus a card so I had to down tools for a bit................lol :rotfl: Am now worn out...........well mentally anyway...............lol
Oh and stupid me...........should have got some nice paper to cover the diaries.............not sure what I've got lurking about will look right..........oh well we'll see.
Keep busy all:rotfl:

The keys are real unwanted ones. Hubby got some from work and I also asked at the local key shop for some

I am struggling to get some more packs of the Anita's Christmas Laser 3D stickers? My local stationers where I bought my orignal packs from don't have any more in stock. Hobbycraft don't have any either
Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced website for them? I don't mind buying them online as long I don't get hammered with OTT postage charges!

I found this in Pets at home of all places- it's a cat collar - Poor cat I would never subject her to wearing it.
However the bells are delightful its a shame you can't hear it. I was so sure I could make something out of it I bought it, it was only 99p!!! When you think of the price of those little bells there must be 25 on here!!
Ideas anyone??



thanks! managed to buy the last 2 in local store :j

I bought the HC ones for 99p, The Range were selling what I thought to be the same ones for £1.50.

Bird feed thanks Annie I will go there tomorrow. Funny how I go in there OFTEN & always forget to look for other stuff too!!!
