LEGO Duplo Lighting McQueen £5.98 @ ASDA

LEGO Duplo Lighting McQueen £5.98 @ ASDA

LEGO Duplo’s Lightning McQueen set is on sale at ASDA for £5.98 instead of £9.97, saving you £3.99.

Actually I think this is a really expensive set. Even at £5.98, you’re getting a car, a finish-line flag, a handful of blocks and a cactus. As the single reviewer put it, you’d have to add this to more Duplo to really be able to do much with it. She does also say that ASDA was about £5 less than anywhere else though.

I guess if you’re going to be buying a bit of Lightning McQueen Duplo, rather pay this price for it than full price.  My daughter has a Duplo Lightning McQueen (which she calls Ferrari!)  and she loves it, but the side panels do keep falling off, so it’s probably worth noting that if your child is going to be looking for a car to run around with all day, you might want to get something that doesn’t fall apart.

Considering how much time it’s spent in the bath, however, I’ve been impressed with the printing on it, and that it’s stayed on!

You can collect it from your local store for free, or have it delivered for £2.95.

Chicco Winter London Stroller £55 @ ASDA

by Tamsin Oxford in Deals on 17 January, 2012 at 6:00 pm

Chicco Winter London Stroller £55 @ ASDA

Wow, ok, £55 for a stroller seems really good value for money to me and you’re saving £20 off the usual price which is £75. Part of the ASDA Baby and Toddler Event, this discount is one of many so do poke around to see what else you may need.

The Chicco Winter London Stroller is a practical and lightweight buggy that is suitable from birth until 15kgs. This type of stroller is ideal for people who have to navigate a lot of stairs and don’t want to have to carry ten tons of pram about the place.

The Chicco Winter London Stroller has a lockable front wheel and is designed to close like an umbrella – nice and easy. The back rest reclines to five positions and the stroller has linked rear bakes for safety. The ergonomic handles (hahah) apparently make pushing this stroller a joy.

The leg rest can be adjusted to two positions, there is a five-point safety harness, a foot muff, a detachable hood and a shopping basket and rain cover.

Huggies Nappies Big Pack 2 For £14 @ Asda

by Lynley Oram in Deals on 14 January, 2012 at 6:00 pm

Huggies Nappies Big Pack 2 For £14 @ AsdaThe Huggies Nappies Big Packs normally sell for £11.98 each at Asda. With this deal you can get two packs for £14. There are 76 nappies in these packs, so at a total of 152 nappies that works out to 9p each. Tesco is offering the same pack at £11.98 each or two for £19.

There are also deals on smaller packs, which you can find here, with 2 for £10 and rollbacks offered. The Huggies Nappies Big Pack is for sizes 4 to 7. If you're a fan of Huggies this is an excellent deal. It seems like every baby has a different 'preference'. I always found that my son reacted to any brand other than Pampers, while my neice had the same problem but with any brand except Huggies. My best mate on the other hand found that Sainsbury's own brand worked just as well as any brand name, but not the own brand from Tesco. It is definitely an odd one!

Everyday is a world of new discoveries for a baby. Whether they’re sticking their head between their legs or trying to eat their feet, they’re always exploring the exciting world as it unfolds around them. And like any explorer, it’s important that they have the right equipment.

Huggies Super-Dry nappies offer dryness for up to 12 hours protection. With a special super stretchy waistband and breathable outer layer, your little explorer can stay dry and comfortable, meaning he can concentrate on his next exciting discovery, whatever it may be.

Huggies Little Swimmers My First Swim Kit £3 @ ASDA

by Tamsin Oxford in Deals on 8 January, 2012 at 4:00 pm

Huggies Little Swimmers My First Swim Kit £3 @ ASDA

The Huggies Little Swimmers My First Swim Kit set is down to only £3 at ASDA and comes with quite a few little bits and pieces to make your little one swimming pool ready.

The Huggies Little Swimmers My First Swim Kit comes with six special swim nappies from Huggies which don’t swell up in the water like normal nappies would! You also get your very own 100% cotton hooded towel to wrap up your little one after their very first swim.

The Huggies Little Swimmers kit is the perfect way to start swimming with your baby without having to worry about embarrassing leaks or issues. I used these when my daughter was a baby and she absolutely loved them. Well, she was too young to care but I appreciated the fact that they were easy to use and that they didn’t puff up like a super absorbent balloon.

Toy Story Inline Scooter £10 @ ASDA

by Luschka van Onselen in Deals on 10 December, 2011 at 7:00 pm

Toy Story Inline Scooter £10 @ ASDA

ASDA have a Toy Story Inline Scooter for sale at £10. I’m not sure if that’s the usual price or not, but our HUKD folk seem to think it’s a great deal.  Delivery is £2.95 for the standard service, or you can collect in store for free.

I’m not crazy about parent-handle free things with wheels – but that’s cause I’m mum to a two-year old, and kids seem to be made of bounce-back-rubber! I see so many kids heading to school on these things as they glide past our house with mums and dads practically jogging along, that it must be good for the whole family, right?

The Toy Story Inline Scooter features an easy-grip handle and good-grip foot plate. It folds up easily for storage, which I imagine makes it easier when you end up having to carry it, which I’m sure inevitably happens.

This scooter is also height adjustable to suit your growing child – it goes from 61cm to 87cm and I’m sure would be loved by any Toy Story fan.

Glitter Fairies Gift Set Under £2 @ ASDA

by Tamsin Oxford in Deals on 29 November, 2011 at 6:00 pm

Glitter Fairies Gift Set Under £2 @ ASDA

Now this is a lovely deal from ASDA that would make an equally lovely stocking filler this Christmas. The Glitter Fairies gift set is down from the usual price of £5.99 to only £2.99 but if you get these in conjunction with their current 3 for 2 offer, the price drops down to under £2 per Christmas gift.

Each of these Glitter Fairies gift sets includes two lip glosses and two nail polishes. They are themed to the Sweet Treats theme and the packaging is designed to look like a food stall. The bottles are also shaped like flowers and look rather adorable.

I am not an advocate of kids using make-up of any kind actually so I am not sure I approve of these sets. However, I have allowed my daughter to wear nail polish so I reckon I am being a bit of a hypocrite here!

If you are on the prowl for cheap and cheerful Christmas gifts or stocking fillers, then this set at half price and in conjunction with the 3 for 2 deal is a winner.

Lego Star Wars T-6 Jedi Shuttle £29.99 @ ASDA Direct

by Tamsin Oxford in Deals on 22 November, 2011 at 4:00 pm

Lego Star Wars T-6 Jedi Shuttle £29.99 @ ASDA Direct

ASDA Direct has marked the Lego Star Wars T-6 Jedi Shuttle kit down from £46.47 to only £29.99 which is a saving of £16.48 off the usual price. This would make an excellent Christmas gift for any little Lego (and Star Wars) fan.

The story so far…

The Jedi have been ambushed by bounty hunters while racing to a distant Clone Wars battlefield in their T-6 shuttle. Fortunately their Lego Jedi shuttle is armed with flick missiles and a rotating wing for flying mode and the detachable cockpit can turn into an escape pod if things get a bit too hairy.

This Lego Jedi shuttle is more than a match for those pesky bounty hunters, much less the powerful jedi nestled within its cool Lego shell.

This Lego Star Wars T-6 Jedi shuttle is a lovely Christmas gift at one third the usual price and well worth looking into for any young Lego fans.

62 Piece Take Along Tool Cart £15 @ ASDA

62 Piece Take Along Tool Cart £15 @ ASDA

ASDA has marked this whopping 62 piece take along tool cart down from £30 to £15 and you can get it delivered instore for free. This would make a superb Christmas gift for any kids who love to make, build and construct.

The Take Along Tool Cart comes with 62 different pieces which is a whopping number for any toy under £20 (unless it’s Lego though). You get a huge range of tools and toys that can be whipped up into a frenzy of pretend building play.

The Take Along Tool cart acts as a portable work bench and then folds up into a rolling case. It comes with drill that has a forward and reverse function and lights up. The Take Along Tool Car has all the tools any kid needs to complete the essential jobs around the home.

I have already snapped this up for my nephew as he will utterly love it.

Traditional Wooden Dolls House £35 @ Asda

by Luschka van Onselen in Deals on 5 November, 2011 at 11:00 am

Traditional Wooden Dolls House £35 @ Asda

There’s £25 off the Traditional Wooden Dolls House at Asda, reducing it from £60 to £35. Standard delivery is a very reasonable £2.95, but you can have it delivered free to your local store.

I always seem to be writing about wooden dolls houses and think I might actually just have to buy one at some point.  I can imagine this under the tree come Christmas morning, and think my little girl would love a house full of people and things to play with.

The Wooden Dolls House is a 3 floor house with 5 rooms, a staircase, windows, doors and a lift-top roof.  You can open the front of the house to get inside.

The house does not come assembled, so you’ll have to do that yourself, and while the customer reviews loved it and most thought it was good quality, a few of our HUKD members didn’t think it was at all. Also, there’s some uncertainty about what’s included. Some commenters say that it didn’t include people as in the picture. You can buy accessories for the house, and the furniture pack and garden furniture pack are currently less than half price at £12 too.

Awesome Chocolate Christmas Deals @ ASDA

Awesome Chocolate Christmas Deals @ ASDA

ASDA appears to be on a mission to fatten me up. Yes. How can they so callously reduce the price of chocolates and expect me to have the self discipline not to buy them? They have marked down tins of Roses, Quality Street, Cadbury Heroes and more to only £4.

Click here to get chocolaty with ASDA

The ASDA tins of chocolates are the large celebration ones and they are all half price in this sale. As well as the Cadbury Heroes Tin (800g), the Cadbury Roses Tin (850g), the Quality Street Tin (1kg) you will also find the Celebrations Tub (855g) and the Basset Liquorice Allsorts (800g) bag.

Other items that may catch your chocolate loving fancy include Thornton’s Moments which I love and wish I could say no to. These tubs of chocolate will make lovely additions to the Christmas home as well as Christmas gifts for work colleagues and friends. Sweet little token presents.

So, go and have a look at what ASDA has on offer in their £4 chocolate sale and indulge!

Wooden Play Kitchen £40 @ ASDA

by Tamsin Oxford in Deals on 19 October, 2011 at 3:00 pm

Wooden Play Kitchen £40 @ ASDA

Oooh, this is a lovely deal and many of the people I’ve spoken to who’ve bought this toy say it is utterly fabulous. You get this lush wooden play kitchen for £40 instead of the usual £80 at ASDA, what a save!

The wooden play kitchen comes with a microwave, oven, sink, preparation area and storage space and the hub controls turn and click just like a real oven. We used to have a plastic pretend kitchen which we (sadly) had to get rid of for space reasons and my daughter loved it.

The fact that this play kitchen is made from wood is a really good thing. Wooden toys are really so much better quality and are more durable, and they always tend to look really good. I love the little green handle on the oven door and the sweet little sink and vegetable storage area.

While £40 is hardly a minor spend, this kitchen is good value at that price. What do you think?

Traditional Wooden Doll House £30 @ ASDA

by Tamsin Oxford in Deals on 9 October, 2011 at 4:00 pm

Traditional Wooden Doll House £30 @ ASDA

This is another utterly lovely Christmas gift in the making that has been marked down from £60 to only £30 at ASDA and will make one little girl utterly ecstatic. The house is really quite beautiful looking on the outside and is one I could quite happily live in, in the real world. Although probably not quite so pink…

The wooden doll house comes with three floors of rooms and offers up hours of lovely imaginative play for kids. Intricately designed with a staircase, detailed windows, doors and a roof this house wood sell for loads on the current property market (hahah).

You don’t get much else with the house I don’t think though. The interior is pretty well made with the roof hinged to the main body of the house for easy open and close access. However, the site says that furniture packs are available separately which means you’ll probably have to spend more if you want to kit it out.

Huggies Super Dry Big Pack x 2 £15 @ Asda

by Lynley Oram in Deals on 9 October, 2011 at 9:00 am

Huggies Super Dry Big Pack x 2 £15 @ AsdaAsda are selling Huggies Super Dry big packs for as little as £9 each, and I've been able to find them for this price at Tesco, and slightly cheaper at Amazon. However, you can get 2 packs for £15 in the multi-buy offer, and I haven't been able to find this cheaper anywhere. It works out to (for say the Huggies Super Dry 76 big pack size 4) just 10p per nappy.

I couldn't find an option to collect in-store. Home delivery charges start at £3, depending on what times you opt for. Keep in mind that there's a minimum spend for home delivery of £25. Also, don't book a slot too far in advance, as you're charged whatever the price is on the day, not at the time you place your order.

If you shop at Asda, it might be worth going into the store to see what they've got on the shelves. As for buying four boxes, well I remember what it was like when son was still in nappies, and it doesn't take long to get through that many!

Play and Learn 26 Piece Wooden Blocks £3 @ ASDA

by Luschka van Onselen in Deals on 8 October, 2011 at 11:00 am

Play and Learn 26 Piece Wooden Blocks £3 @ ASDA

ASDA has a great price on a 26 piece wooden block set, which they’re selling for £3. It doesn’t actually seem to be reduced at all, but £3 still seems like a fantastic price for such traditional childhood blocks to me.

I’m quite surprised by these blocks as they strike me as being very similar to what I would have had as a child, although I’d be suspicious of the quality – which is why having a review system on a website, is so useful. People who’ve bought this set are surprised by the price, especially in relation to the quality, and without fail their children have liked it.

The ASDA Play  and Learn A – Z Wooden Blocks are made from 100% ethically sourced wood and according to the website, it comes with FSC approval. Whatever that means, it sure sounds good. The sale of this product also supports the Tommy’s charity.

Each block contains two letters of the alphabet in bright colours, and four pictures carved out of the wood of items beginning with those letters.

All in all, not a bad little gift for a little person.

Clothing Sale George @ ASDA

Clothing Sale George @ ASDA

Well, looky here. ASDA’s George range of clothing is about to hit a nice little sale, just in time for Christmas and the cold winter months. It is a perfect time to nab some little extras and accessories for summer next year, and as cute little gifts.

The items on sale include quite a few different styles and some of them are branded items at silly low prices. Awesome. I found some truly cute Winnie the Pooh pyjamas as well as fancy dress costumes (which would come in handy for Halloween), and clothing categorised for older girls and boys, shoes, younger girls and boys, and characters.

I am strangely bemused by the fact that you can buy Zhu Zhu pets clothing. I didn’t think they were still such a big deal, are they? I mean, I know they have enormous ranges now that include babies and puppies, but nobody I know seems that interested in them anymore.

Anyway, take a look around and enjoy the sale. Items are going for as little as £2 for a pair of jeans. Nice.

Pampers Sensitive Wipes 9 Packs £3.50 @ ASDA

Pampers Sensitive Wipes 9 Packs £3.50 @ ASDA

Ooh, this is an absolutely genius deal for those of you who stock up on wipes for their kids. ASDA is selling a pack of nine packets of wipes for a mere £9. That’s right, nine packs of Pampers Sensitive wipes for a mere sniffle of a price.

The box of nine packs of wipes gets you a total of 504 wipes for only £3.50. You can order them online or you can get them instore and if you buy them in bulk you’ll be saving a ton of cash. It works out to only 39p per pack which is utterly brilliant.

I cannot link to the pack directly but rather to the special offers in Baby & Toddler page, but you’ll see them there with the heading of Wow! Easy enough to find I think. You can also get some other deals like the Cow & Gate growing up milk, Pampers nappies and even some Tommee Tippee items for below £10.

Bright Starts Lion In The Park Baby Gym £16 @ ASDA

This is a totally cute little deal and utterly brilliant for a mum to be or one that has a freshly made baby on her hands. ASDA has marked the Bright Starts Lion in the Park baby gym down from £29.98 to only £16 as a part of their Baby Event.

The ASDA Baby Event appears to be steaming ahead with great enthusiasm at the moment and I am utterly smitten with the deals that are popping up. This is one of them. The Bright Start Lion in the Park baby gym is usually very expensive and this price knocks it straight into the Awesome Savings category.

The large, quilted play area is smothered in gorgeous pictures of a baby lion and his friends. There is an easy to reach plus ladybug pull toy that plays four melodies, four other toys hang from the soft toy bar, a baby-safe mirror for self-discovery, a colourful bead rattle and a spiralling bead chase, plus a bee-shaped water-filled teether.

There are three height settings that allow the bouncer to grow with the baby, a sun toy stalk that turns, a leaf toy which acts as  a teether, and a giraffe bead chaser. There’s also a tree toy stalk with a spinning lion and a mirror. There’s also a toy loop for attaching  more favourite toys and an easy to clean toy tray.

Two For £2.50 @ ASDA Baby Event

I do love the fact that the big stores are holding these regular baby sales that offer up lots of lovely goodies at awesome prices. It just makes shopping for little ones that much more satisfying. At the moment ASDA has a Baby Event going full steam ahead and one of their offers is a the 2 for £2.50 deal that includes a large number of useful products.

The range of products included in the ASDA 2 for £2.50 special offer is their Little Angels toiletries range. You can choose from baby bath, baby lotion, baby oil, baby powder, bedtime wash, conditioner, shampoo, cotton wipes, Eco Baby products and more.

This is an awesome moment to snatch up some essentials for the bath and bedroom. Or you can whip up a seriously impressive present for an expectant mum using only a tenner and some clever choices. Imagine getting a gift basket packed with things you didn’t know you needed as a first time mum? Genius.
