    ooo just had email from camelcamelcamel, the Adopt It Adopt A Reindeer has dropped on Amazon from £12+ to £3.36! grab it quick!!!!

    have ordered one for my neighbours little grandchildren, bet they will love it!


    Thanks Snugglebunny - I've just ordered 3 reindeer. Not decided on who is getting these yet but they are a bargain!! :T

    Thanks again!
  • Thanks I have ordered a reindeer as an extra present for my three teenagers.
  • am so glad you all got them, was going to post the link for Heva04, so thanks PipsMum! :)

    thank you for the tip about camelcamelcamel, it was them that emailed me :grin: am so pleased, my neighbours grandson is nearly 7, so think he will really be excited to think hes adopting reindeers, thought about getting one for couple of other littlies I get for, but think they would be too little to understand it, its such a super gift for such a low price, and free delivery as well! apparantly it comes in a tin so usually Amazon would send that via courier I think? though there is a free Amazon Prime trial at the moment for a month, its a really good service, usually next day delivery. (at checkout it offers it I think)

    Im pretty sure I saw on this thread that somebody recieved theirs and said the valid to date is some time in 2014? will try and find the post later
    Mine came via Royal Mail, it is in a tin but a small, very slim one. :) Its now £3.32, ordered two for my brother and niece. :)

    Room for another one in here?!

    I need to start getting sorted!

    I'm loving the adopt a reindeer... was thinking of getting them for the children we know...

    Do you think I could get 1 for 2 sisters? Or shall I get them one each?!

    I'm really pleased to have come across this thread- I don't think Ive ever been in this bit before, but it's right up my cup of tea, so will be back regularly. :T

    Forgot to mention that I also managed to pop a Christmas DVD for youngest ds into basket whilst I was in the Christmas spirit!

    sorry everyone been away for a while, got a bit of catching up to do on this thread now!

    Just ordered the adopt a reindeer - thanks for the suggestion - i'm going to put it in my girls xmas eve hamper :D

    I've no idea how people buy for kids in advance, my girls have changed their minds so many times and haven't a clue what they would like, im rather frustrated lol.

    Decided to buy mil a kindle for her xmas, pushing my budget up a bit (a lot!) but im saving swagbucks so hopefully by the time it comes to ordering that will shave a bit off the price.

    we're also hopefully moving in the next few months, so no idea where i will be for xmas lol

    My DS tends to like something for a long time, he's liked Dr Who for 5 years lol so I know Im safe on that one lol but I do wait until nearer the time if he's asked for a 'faddy' thing. I also usually wait until nearer the time for children in the familys main presents. :)
