    Yes last year all decs went to 49p incl cards etc. wonder if it will happen again?
  • WHS Liverpool had some surprisingly decent children's books for 99p -mainly suitable for under 5s, including Tweenies titles, a Teletubbies colours and others for older preschoolers. Could be useful for pressies/stocking fillers!

    I went to WHSmith in Trafford Centre, Manchester today - all boxes of Christmas cards inc £6.99 luxury cards have been reduced to 69pence. They had quite a large stock when I was there around 2pm. Stock up now for next xmas.

    Does anyone know when they generally start to reduce their diaries?

    Really need one but am a little reluctant to pay full price if they'll be reduced relatively soon! (it's my new years resolution to start thinking more money saving...!)

    Waterstones have reduced their diaries to half price in store.

    Just been to WHSmith. They have Gary Rhodes's book for £6.25! It is huge saving and the book is really great!

    Are you actually Gary Rhodes promoting your book, you know you cannot do this on the site!!
  • Just bought some Woodmansterne cards which normally retail at £6.99 for 12.

    You must be joking, don't you? ;)
    I just love the book!
