    I got these fab stepping tiles (not sure what they are called but apparently they RRP for £60 and I got them for £10 at my regional meeting)

    They are about 1.5ft square. 1 is red, 1 is green and they are filled with liquid and you swuish them about with your feet. very relaxing, I love them let alone the kids!

    (Think we were at the same regional forum cos I saw them there too)

    I also got some cheap goodies there including a light panel for £35 which is in the catalogue for over £90!

    I got some jigsaw bricks from Poundland for yes, you've guessed it £1. They are fab!! The older kids love them, they are plastic block jigsaw pieces you can attach together and build up on top of one another! Fab

    Yes. That's them, although I have 1 red 1 green. How expensive are they!

    Hmmm, I'm sure I heard a lady at my table saying she bought a bargain light panel. Which one were you at? Small world if we were on same table!

    I could say I was the one that won in the raffle but that was most of our table. Think I was sat next to you!!! Amongst other things I also bought a pod construction kit. It certainly is a small world

    Not really a bargain in the "on sale" sense but a bargain in the fact that it is a resource that is not over priced:

    Both from Lawrence educational. They help with CLL and are brilliant.

    Not that I have got this but wish I had my own garden as I would certainly not pass this bargain up. So thought I would pass it on to you guys instead...
