To whoever was asking about High School Musical stuff - New Look have some of their stuff in the sale, I got a pen with 8 different colours and Zac Efron's face on for 50p (down from £2), also Tesco have back to school stationery 3 for 2 and there's a pretty big range of HSM stuff there too.
Also, in my local cinema they had a pile of fold out A2 posters of the HSM3 graduation picture, they're free to pick up and you can take as many as you want!

You just need to keep your eye out really - people tend to post good bargains on this thread. Tesco do some cheap crome mini shopping basket style ones which look good.

I think she is the mum and its a present for her daughter so that she doesnt feel left out when the new baby (the daughters sibling) is born.You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
