    carlamarie - how on earth did you get those items so cheap, were the £2 vouchers rewards for something? My daughters jungle junction mad too

    yes they were from the disney magical rewards scheme they are currently running on the dvds, you geta £2 voucher per dvd (theres other rewards there too) and you also get the points towards getting more dvds, ive had about 6 free dvds now.

    my plan this year is to get a collection of dvds for the kids as we will often have a movie night on a friday evening and especially in the winter when its too cold to do anything outside. so i am buying a couple everyweek, getting the |£2 vouchers to spend in disney shop and enetering the codes online to gain points towards more dvds!

    :snow_laug Morning ladies! For anyone looking for toys for Christmas check out Argos.....they have a HUGE sale on...just bought a baby annabell feeding doll (normally £40), 5 lullaby gloworms (normally £10 each) and a fisher price toy camera (Normally £10) for less than £40.....Be wary of the prices on the "search result" page though as the lullaby gloworms are showing up as £6.99 where as when you actually click on the item they're only £2.99 - same with alot of items on there. I hope you can all get lots of bargains :) :xmassign:

    I love christmas and this year will be my grandson's first - bless. I've already bought a preent for him (a Thomas the Tank Engine chritmas dvd) and his father has never see T the T much to my daughter's disgust.

    We have alos bought some books for my Dad, who is the most awkward person to buy for, hubby bought those from a bookshop that was closing down . I've also picked up a few toiletry items from superdrug as they were dead cheap.

    Last time I tried to save money by making cards they ended up looking like a 5 year old made them - false economy there

    morning all, it's so lovely to see soooo many people loving Christmas, I always thought it was just me who thought about it in June! :grin:

    Carlamarie youve got some amazing bargains there! I always love the Disney Store, though my kids are 14 and 12 we still love Disney, even DH admits to it and that the Disney Florida holidays are the best he's ever been on! My DS bought me a big plush Stitch for Christmas last year, Im more of a kid than they are! :grin:

    thanks for the Argos tip as well, have a few littlies to buy for so will have a nosey

    love the Christmas Movie Marathon! Polar Express is my absolute favourite, tho we love Fred Claus too - any of you who have little ones, have you got/seen 'Barney's Night Before Christmas'? we've watched that since DD was a toddler, its absolutely gorgeous and the most Christmasssy Christmas thing ive ever found, has carols and 'night before Christmas' type songs, we still watch it now! its fantastic for little ones, will see if you can still get it on DVD

    you can still get it for a couple of ££ on Amazon, its really magical for kids, family come back from trip and daughter and friends decorate the house, build snowman etc, then realise if Santa fills their stockings, who fills Santas? so they make gifts for Santa and have a snowglobe that takes them to Lapland to Santas house (its gorgeous :) ) hes the best Santa Ive ever seen! they see the workshop etc, its absolutely gorgeous and so lovely and magical for kids, we watch it still even though mine are teens!
  • Hi Guys. Apparently the new KRINGLE CANDLES are superb (even better than Yankie)

    Anyone ordered any of the Christmas festive ones and can recommend what to get. Thought I would place an order in the next few weeks

    I've bookmarked the page and am very tempted. I think might just even order a few single tea lights and put them in a nice little holder wrapped with some cellophane and ribbon they'd look fab:) I fancy the minty ones and the one that says this is how homes should smell at Christmas :) Let me kno if you get to order first.
