Super Stocking Fillers!

So most of your Christmas shopping is done and ready to be wrapped and all you have left to buy are all those little stocking fillers. Panic not, with our new Gift Finder we have all you need for those little extra gifts.

They say that the best things come in small packages and so where better to start than with our selection of cheap gifts for under £5?! With over 50 products to choose from you will be sure to find something for everyone including that difficult "Secret Santa"! For my dad who is always losing his keys the Where's Wally Key Finder And Torch Keychain is perfect, the Love Hearts Tea Lights Set to add to my mums candle collection, my nephew is going to love his new G.I. Joe Canvas Belt and while I was searching the huge collection of mugs I couldn't resist a little treat for me when I spotted this cute Hello Kitty Polka Dot Mug!

If you have a set aside a bigger budget for something a little more expensive then perhaps something from our gifts for under £10 range might solve all your Christmas shopping needs and delight your friends and family with some of our fabulous stocking treats! My niece has requested some make up just like mummy, so the Little Miss Bad Lips and Face Make Up Set is just the ticket. For my other half who thinks he is a bit of a Superman these Men's Superman Figure 2pk Socks from the loungewear range is a good start to the transformation!

Don’t be a Mug this Christmas

It's nearly the season of cheer and good will to all men so this Christmas why don't you help give someone you love the gift of tea.

It’s a fact that people like tea but end up having no choice but to drink it from bland old boring mugs.

What these people truly crave is to stand out from the crowd and be able to drink their favourite beverage in true retro style.

Here are some of my recommendations to help those people stuck in a bland mug world.

1. Tetris, one of the most recognisable games in gaming history, has millions of fans that will love this cool officially licensed Tetris Heat Change Mug. This stylish black mug features a snapshot of a Tetris game at the beginning of play when cold. Fill the mug with your choice of hot beverage and the face of the mug immediately changes to show the game in a much more advanced state of play. AWESOME!!!

2. Can you believe it, it's the 30th anniversary of the Rubik's Cube this year and what better way to celebrate than with this wickedly retro mug inspired of course by the fabulous toy! An awesomely old school find, this little treat is sure to bring back all those memories of frustration, joy and wonderment with every sip!
