Hope you like it and I promise to move onto other non cup/mug gifts so as not to bore you all to tears :rotfl:

Please don't rainmac those 'tea cup set thingies' lol, are lovely, and I'm sure when we sometimes think we can't finish whatever we're doing we can always turn to the tried and tested tea cup thingies I think they're great x

So do I ..! How pretty are those? I'm off to find the thread :rotfl:

Forgot to mention it on this thread but yesterday Wilkinson's were selling off some of their summer items, like mens and womens flip flops and beach baskets for 10p. The bags and baskets were in strong colours, like illuminous green and not everyone can store these things until next year, but for 10p I'd find a space

And if the Boots ladies (and gents) haven't cleared the shelves a lot of haircare products have been reduced by up to 75%. Hths

Just wanted to mention to people that at the moment there are some books on M&S that are 50% and 3 for 2


You can get 6 books for £1.50 .

There are some autobiographies, cook book, puzzle books and gardening books. Thought they may be handy for your baskets.

Thanks for this. Being a bit slow this morning but i can't find the sale books - where do I find them or have you any links? Thanks very much

It's still early, (or late however you view it ) but some of their suncare items are showing as 80% off too.
