    The twins are getting android tablets now. They were getting ipads after their sats but I saw CPW's deal on the Samsung 10.1's (£145 each), remembered the amount of travelling between now and June and bought them one each now. Just need to order covers, headphones and memory cards. So that's another £60 gone.

    Or a Scottish or English Heritage membership - I know a few families (mine included) who get great use of their memberships. NTS we feel is for older folk.

    I also noticed a great cashback deal for NTS on topcashback.

    On the basis that everyone has too much tat, I have mostly gone for cinema or restaurant vouchers this year.
