    I've got bits hidden at me muvva's so really need to get over there & see what I HAVE got before buying more :o It's mainly designer label bits that I've harvested from charity shops, but :doh: brain 'ere didn't think to make a note of what sizes & colours! Could be one offspring has a whole new wardrobe to model over the festive season whilst the other two share a pair of sox:rotfl: They will be NOO sox tho...can't bring mesen to go to 2nd hand underwear JUST yet :o

    Hi all,

    Am putting together a 'cooking-themed' pressie for my friend, so far has lots of bits but missing some easy recipes for her to cook for her boyfriend. She really wants to learn but my brain is much right now - any suggestions for romantic food that is easy to make and she can impress him with? The ones I like tend to be summery and more complicated - ie: my friend mostly cooks ready made strir fries and frozen dinners to give you an idea, but she really has started to want to learn more.

    PS: Woolies are doing a Thorntons chocolate box for £2.99 at the mo which would be a lovely stocking filler for anyone interested

    tesco are doing free green and blacks choc recipe books when you buy 3 bars. they're really gorgeous books (normally about £15-£20) and i'm sure her boyf would appreciate some lovely choc puds!

  • Added this on another thread but found this old one too about this site.

    Just had an email from www.top-gifts.co.uk saying that they're doing 25% discount off everything until midday on 16th November. I think I've got the email because I've ordered personalised calendars from them in the past, so not sure if it will work for everyone else, but I guess so?

    The discount code is "EARLYBIRD" and you use it on the checkout pages and it takes 25% off your order. I was going to order some photo calendars anyway using kids photos (as Xmas gifts for my Mum and Dad etc), so this discount code came at a good time !

    Anyone else have any discount codes for Xmas gift websites?

    Ta!
