    Been in, not only have they got the reindeer throws for a fiver(got two) they've got cushions to match and a lovely grey/white cushion/throw colourscheme. The slippers are great, they've got shaggy boot ones, and ballerina style slip on's, dead soft. lovely soft socks, and nice winter jumpers and leggings. The dressing gowns are nice, but i would go asap cos you would have thought it was christmas eve when i was there, the amount of people!!

    Has anyone seen the mens fleecy PJs in Primark? I mean the long bottoms and top, not fleecy onesies. We don't have one locally but going to Manchester in 2 weeks so really hoping I can get some for my other half and grandad.

    I love primark christmas time as het all the pjs and pants and socks etc, but hate the state on the placce as people throw all the clothes etc on floor when its busy

    The trick is to go early, before they have time to throw things everywhere ;). We used to go around lunchtime an it was hell on toast; now I go straight there on my shopping adventures (10am ish) and it's actually quite a pleasant experience :rotfl:

    Be careful with the knitted stuff though, my Mum bought a cardigan and it shrank to a tiny size!

    I got my niece and nephew xmas pjs each (so cute) found boys didnt have many fleece type christmas themed ones, more monsters and cars etc which is nice but doesnt match in with the hamper lol so I got a monster wearing a wooly hat, close enough I guess! I also got both parents slippers (wish they did bigger variety of xmas novelty slippers for men like they do womens) Got a room difuser for £3 looks really nice and some novelty socks - will really help bulk up the hampers and whole lot was £24!!

  • Their scented candles are nice, i got the cinnemon stick, and festive fig £1.50 each, they smell amazing, and seem to be lasting quite well (1hr burning for 8 nights and still half full). I also got 2 pk teatowels but cant remember how much i paid. and onsie for eldest dd(12y) for £5, and lovely minnie mouse pjs with tutu skirt for dd(5y) for £7!!!

    Word of warning with the reindeer/heart leggings, they are sort of knitted attached to an elastic waistband, the material has the habit of coming away from the waistband, so check the stitching before you get them!
