for anyone collecting Nectar points for Christmas, on the Nectar site you can get 100 Nectar points for registering for the new Nectar Daily Deals newsletter, and also 1000 points if you sign up for free 30 day trial of their DVD Rental service

Thankyou have signed up for the daily deals newsletter. Do you have the link for the dvd rental free trial offer please, I cant find it.

hiya yes its here >>> go to Nectar.com/my account/bonus point offers, then scroll to bottom and there are a few there, clicked on 'visit website' to get you the link but it takes you to LoveFilm ...hmm! in that case if you are thinking of a free trial Id go to LoveFilm via TopCashback, you can usually get a cashback + and Amazon voucher if you do it through them, a lot more than 1000 Nectar points!


by the way does everyone have the Nectar toolbar? you get 2 points for every search, max 50 per month but some months they do double so you can get 100 points

Thanks everyone for your help, much appreciated - its the talking figures she's wanting, to be precise buzz,woody,jesse,bullseye,slinky,rex,lotso,ken & barbie :eek: hubby seems to think she will change her mind b4 xmas but i know how stubborn she is lol, she just wants to act out the films. Hopefully some things might go on sale I'll keep watching :-)

will keep eye, looks like Disney Store sale already finished, that was quick! :eek:

found when mine were smaller and they wanted something for Chrsimtas in September, Id get it, put it away then they wouldnt mention it again! so not long before Christmas I'd get out/watch/mention/read something connected with what they had mentioned and suddenly they would be interested in it again! they are also so open to suggestion at that age Im sure you would be able to subtly nudge her around by making sure TS was on on the Disney Channel or soemthing when she was around!

suggestions for 10 yo, last year found the pre teen and teen girls going mad for the knitted hats with animal faces on etc? got my DD one with bear face and ears, and several others for friends/cousins etc, they all love them, Next have some brilliant ones - I just ordered a zebra knitted hat form their autumn previous for my DD, see all the teen girls wearing them on their way to school on the cold(er!) weather

Kringle order arrived!

very impressed with quick service, good prices (especially compared to Yankee) well packed and good communication.

The tea lights smell delicious, some of them you can open as they have a lid you can take off, the others are shrink wrapped with the label attached, so if you open them they are then open as have no actual lid, so not opened them all yet. The hot chocolate is to die for, the Kringle Cookie is gorgeous, all gingerbread/cinnamon, not too sure about the Home for Christmas one as its a little too strong on the cloves for me, but they can often be more subtle and a bit different when they are burning
the Mulled Spices is lovely too, smells just like mulled wine ...logically I guess!
