Hi everyone,

I'm after a creepy crawlers bug making kit for my 7 year old nephew. Cheapest is £24.99 in Argos. Can anyone find it cheaper?

Also what can I get 2 teenage girls (14 and 15)?

Really struggling with them!

This looked ideal for my DD but the customer reviews of that actual mat itself aren't great.

Hi Tammy!
Not sure of your budget or if the girls wear make/up or read ....but hope it gives you a few ideas.!

MAKEUP-Urban Decay Gift set rrp £30 but £10 from Halfprice Perfumes (have used them and posted thread on this deal a while ago).
http://www.halfpriceperfumes.co.uk/cosmetics-142/urban-decay-cosmetics-145/

Urban Decay and Too Faced (make-up ranges)-currently part of 3 for 2 mix n match at Boots.
http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CatalogSearchResultView?storeId=10052&catalogId=11051&langId=-1&pageSize=12&beginIndex=0&sType=SimpleSearch&resultCatEntryType=2&searchTerm=too+faced&newDepSearch=&x=18&y=18

I say these ranges coz they are quite expensive but you can look out for deals-teenagers into their make up will love it (and you!)

Cheaper make-up....includes Barry M Nail polishes (if they have nails!!) -2 for £7 at Superdrug. Free Del until Tues.
Superdrug does a range of makeup for £1 called Make Up Academy- you could buy a little make-up bag & pop some items in.

Other ideas-
Malorie Blackman Books-new title is Boys Don't Cry. I've just ordered DD(she's 14) -Dead Gorgeous for £3.18 off Amazon.
Fearne& Hollie's Best Friends Guide to Life (book).

Skull candy earphones-for ipods etc-Amazon-15% off certain ones until 14th Nov.

Dance 2 game on Wii etc.

Failing that a music ( HMV ) or clothes voucher ( for New Look )..:rotfl:

Good luck.xxx

Is it worth the money then? I really struggled to part with that amount of money for one toy but did because he keeps seeing it on the tele and saying about it but the whole idea of it the difference between that one and all his other remote control cars is that it sticks to the walls and goes up and over and back down again so would you not recommend it? I have the receipt.....:D

I would say probably not in my opinion but then again I find this to be the case with a lot of these toys.

We have lightly textured walls and the car seems to lose it's grip - it is better on smooth walls and surfaces apparently.

What about a glossy magazine subscription for a year. You can get them quite cheaply.
