This is not fair, I am skint But this range is lovely - and I do need some chair pads for my newly refurbished dining chairs! And the M&S range is lovely too!

Oh well, have to wait for my next paycheck and maybe look for some more work next month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillfamily Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 the M&S stuff is lovely but at Matalan 6 chicken placemats and 6 chicken coasters only cost £3.00 for the lot - costs £14.50 at M&S and Matalan Chicken Mugs are only £2.00 each...............just as nice but much cheaper May get the tea towels though as my towels are years old and could really do with replacing......

chelsea Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I would have got mine from matalan but they dont do online shopping Matalan for me is a 40 mile round trip. Im an armchair shopper!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillfamily Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 it's a shame Matalan don't do online shopping - only up the road from me. I pop in every now and then to check out their homeware dept as they're good value Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missuscluck Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 OMG Just seen this thread. My head is now in a crisis. I really dont NEED anything new at all and I have been sooo good all this month. I really would like one of those egg holder thingys from M and S. Think I should show hubby who might buy me one for easter if I am very good! The Matalan stuff is also nice and the e bay table cloth..... Arrghhh.

Cate in NZ Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I really wish that I hadn't read this thread. I really don't need anything new, my kitchen cupboards are filled to the gunnels as it is . I shall resist this temptation. I have, in fact, been looking at the Matalan range on a regular basis, and have been tempted for ages, but I will stay strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Sorry, I came across them by accident as she hadn't put chickens in the item title! Do you think I should point this out to her? She might get a lot more interest in them! (no good for me as a) I need wipeclean otherwise they will be permanently in the wash and b) I could make them myself ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I must confess though..........i was in matalan this morning and they had plates, bowls, mugs, egg cups, trays, and place mat &coaster sets I brought a tray for £3.00, egg cups 2 for £3.00 (they're going to be easter presents) and the 6 setting place mats and coaster set was priced at £6.00 but went through the till at only £3.00..........bargain PAM Now you are going to make me go to Matalan tomorrow and spend more money on chicken things It is gorgeous I can see OH now and I've got to go to Matalan as well now this morning - the opposite side of town to where I was going! I like those Hen Starsigns from Ana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I do desperately need some wipe clean place mats and the Matalan ones sound a bargain - anyone have a picture? (or anyone going to matalan that could pick some up for me and and I'll pay postage? Pretty please? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
