Peppa Pig Bingo £5.79 @ Amazon

The Inspiration Works Peppa Pig Bingo is on sale at Amazon for 61% off, reduced from £14.99 to £5.79.

There’s actually a really good explanation of the Peppa Pig Bingo from the only review on Amazon.

Apparently, “this is a sound-recognition bingo game for 2-4 players. Each player chooses one of the 4 plastic game boards (Emily, Pedro, Peppa, Danny) There are 2 variations - "object sounds" and "occupations sounds". Players decide which variation they want to play and turn their game boards to the correct side (one side has only object pictures, the other has only occupations pictures).

According to Kip, the reviewer, “You select the variation on the central unit using a slider button, and each player presses his character button on the central unit. Then the game starts. Each player takes turns to press the buzzer on the central unit. The unit will play a sound. If a player has the related button on his game board, he will press the corresponding button down.Once the game is over (one of the players presses down his last button), the unit ie Peppa will announce the winner.

Kip says its an enjoyable game, with the only two downsides being you can’t let your child win, and you have to stick the stickers on yourself, the right sticker in the right place.

Silver Peppa Pig Locket £10.64 @ Amazon

Silver Peppa Pig Locket £10.64 @ AmazonToday is your last chance to order from Amazon in time for Christmas delivery (you'll be paying £5.99 for the privilege too) and if you're stumped for something a little special for a Peppa Pig fan then this silver Peppa Pig locket may just save your bacon (perhaps I shouldn't use the word bacon and pig (Peppa) in the same sentence!)

I had a silver locket when I was little and I loved it; I loved that I could keep something 'secret' in it that no one else could see unless I chose to show it to them.

The locket itself is oval in shape and features Peppa Pig on the front wearing a little red dress, which adds a nice splash of colour, and the chain is a 35.5cms silver trace chain.

The original price for this silver Peppa Pig locket is £34.65, Amazon have reduced it down to £10.64 and you have until 2pm to order it and select next day express delivery to ensure it's with you in time for Christmas day.

Well, off you go then! Hanging around here isn't going to make sure you get one in time to wrap up for your special Peppa Pig fan now is it!

Peppa Pig Fairy Tale Little Library £2.49 @ Amazon

by Sarah Macdonald in Deals on 14 November, 2011 at 10:00 am

Peppa Pig Fairy Tale Little Library £2.49 @ AmazonAmazon have got a nice little deal on this Peppa Pig Fairy Tale My Little Library set at the moment; it's usually £4.99, has been reduced to £2.49 and would make for a great stocking filler for a young Peppa Pig fan.

Ahhhh Peppa Pig! I miss her; she brings back fond memories of when my youngest was cute, and little, and not into splatting aliens like Ben 10, or challenging me to lightsabre battles where I have to let him win.

I love these Peppa Pig Fairy Tale Little Library books – any of the Little Library book sets actually - they are such a great way to introduce tiny kids to the fantastic world of books and reading.

So, six little chunky board books make up the Peppa Pig Fairy Tale Little Library collection, and they come all nicely packaged in their own slip case to keep them altogether.

They're perfect for chubby fingers to get to grips with and are marvellous for very short bedtime 'stories' - my youngest had a Bob the Builder set and were favourites for a long time. In fact, he's recently rediscovered them, but this time he's reading them for himself - so grown up now *sigh*

If you choose the Amazon SuperSaver delivery option then there's nothing else to pay and, in my experience, delivery only takes two or three working days - you can't say fairer than that for free!

Peppa Pig Peppa Secret Tower £9.97 @ Tesco Direct

by Lynley Oram in Deals on 13 November, 2011 at 11:00 am

Peppa Pig Peppa Secret Tower £9.97 @ Tesco DirectAs I sit writing this my six year old son is sitting next to me playing with his Peppa Pig playground playset. The toys in this range have an appeal that last for quite a while. I think he still plays with all his Peppa Pig stuff even though he's a little bit old for the show now. I don't think you can really go wrong then with this Peppa Pig Peppa Secret Tower if you're looking for something as a Christmas gift. Tesco Direct has it reduced in their 50% sale from £19.97 down to £9.97. Delivery is free if you can collect in store.

Princess Peppa has her own secret tower, and she wants to share its magical mysteries with you! At least that's what it says on the website. I can't quite see what is 'secret' about it to me (I was thinking it might have a secret compartment, but I couldn't see anything about that in the blurb).

It folds out to reveal royal rooms, accessories and beautiful furniture, all fit for a princess. There’s all sorts of secret wonders to be discovered, including a magical mirror and a large clothes dresser – after all, a princess needs somewhere special to store all her beautiful outfits. When Peppa is tired, she can relax in the luxurious four poster bed. Again, that's what it says on the website and I have to wonder who on earth writes these things and have they even seen the show? Peppa is one of the best role models for little girls on the telly. She's not princess obsessed, and she's not fashion obsessed!

However, if I was going to have anything 'princess' themed in your child's bedroom then this would probably be it.

This Peppa Secret Tower is designed to encourage development of hand to eye co-ordination, while also offering your child hours of imaginative play. It’s suitable for little princesses aged 3 years and up.

Peppa Pig Duo Jigsaw Puzzles £3.99 @ Amazon

by Luschka van Onselen in Deals on 25 October, 2011 at 7:00 pm

Peppa Pig Duo Jigsaw Puzzles £3.99 @ Amazon

This Peppa Pig Duo Jigsaw Puzzle is a lovely looking gift for a Peppa Pig fan. The box contains two puzzles, one with twelve pieces and another with twenty-four.  It’s currently on offer at £3.99 instead of £6.99.

It’s pretty self-explanatory really – two puzzles, one with twelve pieces and one with twenty four, suitable from ages three and up.  The puzzles both measure 23cm by 19cm, so around an A4 page in size, and come in a box that acts as a carry case too.

The winter theme of the 24-piece puzzle will go well with the season, and the 12-piece summer picnic set will give you something to look forward to.

The reviews are really mixed on this one – some say it looks cheap, some say the box is too big for the quantity of puzzles (??) and some say it’s fantastic and the kids love it. It’s a cheapy, and makes a good stocking filler, but don’t expect  miracles, I say.

by Sarah Macdonald in Deals on 4 October, 2011 at 3:00 pm

Peppa's Super Activity Collection Plus Free Gift £7.99 @ The Book PeopleThe Book People website is one of my favourite places to shop for books; you really can't beat them for great book deals and their service is reliable too.

Peppa Pig Supermarket Playset £24.99 @ Argos

by Luschka van Onselen in Deals on 1 October, 2011 at 7:00 pm

Peppa Pig Supermarket Playset £24.99 @ Argos

Argos has the Peppa Pig Supermarket Playset on offer for half the original £49.99 and are now selling it for £24.99.

Actually, this toy reminds me of one of the rides at Peppa Pig World in Paultons Park – an absolute MUST DO day out if you have a bit of a Peppa fan in your home. It’s a bit like being stuck in one of those shiny happy worlds you’d see on TV, but the kids love it and it’s really well done.

But anway, I digress.

The playset includes a supermarket trolley, a delivery van, an oval of road, a swing set, Pedro Pony, and two Peppa’s in different outfits.

It’s a great price for everything you get if you think what just the Peppa Pig houses cost! Reviewers give the set 4.8 out of five stars, which is pretty great.

This can be reserved for store pickup, and home delivery will cost you £5.95.

Peppa Pig: Peppa's Christmas DVD £2.85 @ Zavvi

by Sarah Macdonald in Deals on 11 August, 2011 at 11:00 am

Peppa Pig: Peppa's Christmas DVD £2.85 @ ZavviIf you buy this Peppa Pig: Peppa's Christmas DVD from Zavvi, you'll be saving yourself £9.94 as they're selling it for £2.85 instead of £12.79.

Don't look at me like that, I'm just the messenger - albeit a rather early one.

Although that's not strictly true, you know how quickly the time goes between now and that festive time of year where we're roasting chestnuts on open fires because we say it every year, "Ohhh, I just don't know where the time's gone, last time I looked it was summer!"

Not only that, there's really no excuse for not being organised - I've already got a few Christmas pressies for various people stashed away.

My eldest son was given a Thomas the Tank Engine Christmas video (yes, video) years ago and he loved it; for a good few years after that, when it got closer to Christmas time, that's all he wanted to watch.

So this cute little Peppa Pig: Peppa's Christmas DVD will probably have the same effect on all young Peppa fans.

There's an exlusive extended Christmas episode and 10 other festive tales.

You don't have to pay any delivery charges with Zavvi and their service has always been good whenever I've used them; for £2.85 I think Peppa's Christmas DVD would make a rather nice stocking filler.

Princess Peppa’s Palace £19.99 @ Argos

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

Princess Peppa’s Palace £19.99 @ Argos

Argos have a sale on a range of Peppa Pig playhouses at the moment, and  one of the best offers seems to be this Princess Peppa’s Palace playhouse which is £19.99 instead of £39.99.

I must admit, I’ve totally gone off Peppa Pig. I loathe the repeated portrayal of Daddy Pig as an idiot, and after tweeting about it recently, I discovered I wasn’t alone. Many people find that rather offensive – but I was assured that in later episodes, Mummy Pig gets her come-uppance too. And really, I don’t know how I feel about that either.  But my daughter loves Peppa, and especially her as-big- as-her Peppa Pig doll, so we’ve kept that, but the DVD’s have mysteriously disappeared from our house.

She does have a Peppa’s Palace too, and she absolutely loves it and plays with it for hours on end. This is the smarter version, it seems, as it comes with a few accessories, such as thrones for the King and Queen, beds, tables and chairs, an oven cauldron and an exclusive guardsman. It comes with a Peppa figurine and for the price many people felt that it should’ve had more accessories, but at this price, hopefully that makes up for it.

These are out of stock for delivery, but there does still seem to be stock around the country.

Peppa Pig Grandpa Pig Boat £10.99 @ Home Bargains

by Sarah Macdonald in Deals on 9 August, 2011 at 9:00 am

Peppa Pig Grandpa Pig Boat £10.99 @ Home BargainsHome Bargains are really coming up trumps with some fab' bargains just now; this Peppa Pig Grandpa Pig Boat is £10.99 instead of £24.99.

This pop-up fabric Peppa Pig Grandpa Pig boat will make any little Peppa Pig fan v e r y happy indeed.

The pop-up feature is fabulous, in my opinion, as youngsters aren't known for their patience and waiting for something like this to be inflated, or put together, just tests everyone's patience.

Peppa Pig's Grandpa Pig boat measures approximately 95 x 30 x 30 cm and is suitable for little shipmates aged two years and over.

It has proper portholes, features a pirate flag and can be used for playing both indoors and outdoors - perfect for our unpredictable summer weather.

I love toys like this as they allow young imaginations to run riot.  In addition, this Peppe Pig Grandpa Pig boat doesn't need batteries, doesn't have flashing lights or feature any bells and whistles; marvellous, just make it all up as you go along.

Delivery to your home will cost just £2.99.

Peppa Pig Fairy Tale Little Library Collection £2.49 @ Tesco

by Sarah Macdonald in Deals on 2 August, 2011 at 11:00 am

Peppa Pig Fairy Tale Little Library Collection £2.49 @ TescoTesco are selling this rather cute Peppa Pig Fairy Tale Little Library collection for £2.49 at the moment, instead of £4.99.

Ahhhh Peppa Pig!

She brings back fond memories of when my youngest was little and not into splatting aliens a'la Ben 10, or hacking off body parts of members of the Dark Side with his light sabre (although he still won't be told that it's not called a light saver!).

I love these Peppa Pig Fairy Tale Little Library books – they are such a great way to introduce tiny kids to the magical world of books and the concept of reading.

Six little chunky board books make up the Peppa Pig Fairy Tale Little Library collection  and they come all nicely packaged in their own slip case.

They're perfect for chubby fingers to get to grips with (and will withstand a fair amount of teething trauma!) and are marvellous for very short bedtime 'stories' - my youngest had a Bob the Builder set and were favourites for a long time.

There’s no delivery to pay if you arrange to collect in-store.

By the way, ignore the notice saying they're available from 01/01/2500 - you don't have to wait that long, I added them to my basket without any problems *grin*

Peppa Pig Magnet Book £3.49 @ Tesco Direct

by Luschka van Onselen in Deals on 1 August, 2011 at 7:00 pm

Peppa Pig Magnet Book £3.49 @ Tesco Direct

Tesco Direct have a Peppa Pig Marvellous Magnet Book on half price offer at the moment for £3.49, instead of £6.99 saving you £3.50.  Standard delivery is free, and express delivery is £2.75.

We went on a really long flight recently – 11 hours’ worth of day flight – and one item in the bag full of in-flight entertainment toys I had for my daughter was a magnet book which she spent a good couple of hours on and off, playing with. I was really glad for it too, as not only doesn’t it take up much room or weigh very much, but it also provided plenty of play.

This Peppa Pig magnet book is all about Peppa and her little brother George, having fun “on an exciting adventure”. You can join in by reading the story and choosing the magnets to finish the pictures.

There are ten story pages and while it doesn’t say how many magnets there are, looking at the pictures it looks like there’ll be at least one for each of the main characters, and a few friends.

Peppa Pig Bubble Mower £17.97 @ Wilkinson Plus

by Luschka van Onselen in Deals on 16 July, 2011 at 7:00 pm

Peppa Pig Bubble Mower £17.97 @ Wilkinson Plus

The Peppa Pig Bubble Mower was £25.50 at Wilkinson Plus, but with £7.53 off, is now £17.97.

If you have a toddler in the UK, chances are you need little to no introduction to Peppa Pig, or explanation as to why this is such a fab little gift item.

The toy bubble blowing ‘lawn mower’ decorated with Peppa Pig, is just that – the red one in the image above is the one you can get from Wilkinson in this offer, but I put the pink one in too to show you where the bubbles come from.

The bubble mower requires 2 x 1.5v AA/LR6 batteries, which aren’t included. It also requires bubble solution, but there is some included to get you started with. I can’t see them, but the blurb does warn that there are small parts which could be a choking hazard in under 3’s.

The mower is 50cm high, and 30cm  wide, so it wont take up masses of space, but isn’t a small toy either.

You can collect in store four days after ordering, or delivery will cost you £4.95

Peppa Pig: Polka Dot Single Bed £54.99 @ Play.com

by Luschka van Onselen in Deals on 1 July, 2011 at 9:00 am

Peppa Pig: Polka Dot Single Bed £54.99 @ Play.com

There’s £65 off this Peppa Pig Polk Dot Single Bed at Play.com right now, bringing it to £54.99 instead of £119.99

We spent ages recently trying to find a single bed for my daughter. We settled on one that was over £100 but came with it’s own mattress – this was a mistake! While the bed is fab, the mattress is a nightmare. If either of us tries to lie down next to her, we have springs in our backs! While it seems fine for her – she’s light enough not to make much of a dent in the mattress, it definitely won’t be suitable long term, and if we ever did this again, we’d just buy a frame we liked and get our own mattress with it.

This Peppa Pig single bed has a Polka Dot design MDF headboard and the rest of it is made from steel. It is 199cm x W91cm x H35cm, making it an ideal first bed as it’s easy to get onto and off of at that height.

Play dispatch within 24 hours (Another bonus. We had to wait 28 days for ours!)

Peppa Pig Spaceman George Backpack £5.51 @ Amazon

by Luschka van Onselen in Deals on 24 June, 2011 at 7:00 pm

Peppa Pig Spaceman George Backpack £5.51 @ Amazon

This Spaceman George backpack from Peppa Pig is on sale at Amazon for £5.51, a grand 45% off the £10 RRP.

I don’t get the whole Peppa Pig thing. She’s a little whiney, obnoxious and somewhat vain pig, but for my sins, my daughter loves her. I bought her a pair of Wellies when we were on holiday in April, and the only ones in her size were Peppa Pig, and since then… there are even tears sometimes if I won’t let her wear her Peppa Pig ‘boots’.  So I won’t be showing her this!

The Spaceman George backpack has a zip for easy opening, and has adjustable straps making it easier for children to carry. It’s not a huge bag – which you don’t really want for a bag for 3 years and up, and the reviews on it are pretty fantastic. Parents and children love it. It’s bigger than ‘baby backpacks but is big enough for ‘a change of clothes and a drink’.

It’s also an ideal backpack for boys, as it doesn’t have the typical Peppa Pig pink.

Peppa Pig Chair £11.24 @ Sainsburys

by Sarah Macdonald in Deals on 28 May, 2011 at 9:00 am

Peppa Pig Chair £11.24 @ SainsburysOooh I do love most things Peppa Pig and Sainsbury's are selling this Peppa Pig chair with a 25% discount; £11.24 instead of £3.75.

This is a cute little chair that's guaranteed to get a lot of use this summer, that's assuming the sunshine and warm temperatures decide to put in another, and prolonged, appearance again this year (the weather in my little bit of the country is ruuuubbish again today!).

In the traditional deck chair style, this Peppa Pig chair features a warm and sunny picture of Peppa enjoying herself at the beach .

It has a tubular steel, powder coated frame which, according to the official information, makes it sturdy.

It's suitable for young Peppa fans aged between three and six years old, or a maximum weight of 50kgs...just in case you're tempted to sit on it too.

There is also official advice that comes with this Peppa Pig chair and that's to periodically check it for loose parts.  I'm not sure WHICH parts might loosen off over time, it's not as if it has that many of them; I'm just passing on the message.

The 25% discount price on this Peppa Pig chair is valid until 7 June.

OINK!

Peppa Pig Book Collection £9.99 @ The Book People

by Sarah Macdonald in Deals on 14 April, 2011 at 10:00 am

Peppa Pig Book Collection £9.99 @ The Book PeopleI sometimes wonder how The Book People make any money at all – they’re selling this lovely Peppa Pig Book Collection for £9.99 instead of £49.99.

Ten books make up this Peppa Pig Book Collection and they come in a little carry case too, making them easy to pack up and take out with you AND ideal for trying to create a tidy spark in your child from early on.

I’m rather fond of Peppa Pig and all her funny antics, the creators really came up with something for everyone – Peppa for the girls, George for the boys and just the loveliness of it for the grown-ups.

The Peppa Pig Collection books follow Peppa through various daily scenarios that your child is likely to experience, so they can read along and identify with what’s happening in the story and equate it to their own life.

If you have a Peppa Pig birthday party coming up then the Peppa Pig Book Collection would also be ideal for splitting up and putting into party bags; something nice to keep once the cake’s been eaten and the balloon has popped!

Peppa Pig George's Band Set £4.99 @ Argos

by Luschka van Onselen in Deals on 5 April, 2011 at 9:00 pm

Peppa Pig George's Band Set £4.99 @ ArgosIt's been over a month since we last wrote about the Peppa Pig George's Band Set being on sale. It was £4.99 then, and is again now – but at least now it's in stock again!

The Peppa Pig George's Band Set includes castanets, cymbals, a drum, maracas, a trumpet and a tambourine and none of the instruments require any batteries, but on the down side, that also means they don't have an off switch!

They seem to be pretty good stock levels still, although it's dropped somewhat from when I checked this morning.

Commenters on the HUKD thread that own it say it's a good purchase, (although there's talk of headaches – but the kids love it).

This is available for home delivery too, but will cost you £5.95, which is a little rough compared to the actual item price though! Of course, you can reserve online, and collect in store, which certainly seems the best bet here!

Peppa Pig Grandad Dog Pick Up Truck £4.64 @ The Hut

by Sarah Macdonald in Deals on 26 March, 2011 at 12:00 pm

Peppa Pig Grandad Dog Pick Up Truck £4.64 @ The HutThe Hut have cut a whopping 71% off the full price of this Peppa Pig Grandad Dog Pick Up Truck - it's £4.64, for now, instead of £16.99.

I haven't written anything Peppa Pig for, what feels like, ages!

I've looked and looked at this Grandad Dog Pick Up Truck and for the life of me I can't work out how it should be £16.99, perhaps I'm just getting more tight-fisted as the deals go by; The Hut aren't making it up with an over-inflated rrp, I've checked all over and the usual suspects are all selling it for that sort of price.

Amazon have it up for £12.79, Toys R Us and Tesco Direct for £16.97, Sainsbury's for £16.99 and Woolworths for £17 - so £4.64 from The Hut is a serious bargain.

Have you done the maths? Have you worked out that 71% off £16.99 is actually £4.99...? Well if you use this code - KSTART15 - then you'll get an extra 15% off, which brings the price down to £4.64; hurrah!

Peppa Pig Grandad Dog Pick Up Truck comes with a windable winch and has sounds effects too, although it's always quite fun to make your own sounds.

Grandad Dog is ready to tow any car in his pick up truck as he's dressed in mechanics overalls, and his free wheeling truck can be pushed to any break down.

The winch on the back of Grandad Dog's Pick Up Truck can pick up Daddy Pig's car and tow it back to the garage to be fixed; hurrah!
