    The Unazukin are great little things for 49p - our kids love them.

    Okay, yesterday - indoor micro helicopters r/c £9.99. They are exactly the same as these at Play.com for £13:

    The box doesn't say Syma on though, and read the reviews at the bottom on Play - they are tricky to control, probably too difficult for younger children. We haven't got the hang of ours yet, it tends to go round in circles a lot, but I've been thinking about these for ages even since I saw them being flown around Debenhams and Selfridges (£30 there).

    The Yes no dolls nod or shake their head meaning yes or no to a question, not sure how accurate they are, bought one for sister as she likes that type of thing
  • Home bargains Telford has Sindy 14" girls bikes for £19.99 each - seemed like a really good bargain (shame I just bought my daughter a bike for more £)

    there are also lots of cheap pushchairs, dolls cots and dolls high chairs

    We picked up some of those yes/no dolls a few weeks ago-my hubby popped back in ten minutes later for one more (for me lol) and he had one of the last....people had gone mad over them!

    Cute little stocking filers!

  • I got a couple of these dolls today - they are really cute :)

    It says on the box they require 2 LR44 type batteries (1.5v)

    Can anyone tell me what type these batteries are, and where is the best (cheapest?) place to get some from?

    Thank you :)
    I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure!!

    "square" batteries are 9v and known by many names including PP3.

    LR44 batteries are "button" or watch type batteries.
