abwsco Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 If anyone else is mad (or so DH thinks at times )and is thinking of preparing for winter even though we're not into summer yet Dunelm Mill have cheap fleece throws in for £2.99. I've got some this morning so that DD can line her curtains with them to help make their flat warmer this year. Far cheaper than buying thermal linings. I've also bought us an electric blanket as it was less than half price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 OOoo, now I've never been to a Dunelm Mill but one had just opened near us - I may have to go and get some of those fleece throws for the dogs. Thanks for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted March 15, 2012 Author Share Posted March 15, 2012 I always head for the clearance section and have had some fab curtain bargains. Last lot being fully lined 90" x 90" drop for only £15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Might have a wee look myself . Dunelm Mill is great for stocking up for kids going away to uni . I bought towels for ES 2 years ago and they are still as good as new (better than ours, in fact ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Never mind preparing for winter, camping season is upon us and fleece throws are perfect for lightweight, coziness in tents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welovemarmite Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 OOoo, now I've never been to a Dunelm Mill but one had just opened near us - I may have to go and get some of those fleece throws for the dogs. Thanks for that Just what i was thinking.... i have been to the banbury one, it is very nice, but be warned, its like the sahara at noon in there, i end up doing a striptease round the shop. oh and only take in the amount of money you intend to spend and nothing else and no cards..

Lavenders_Blue Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Great bargain! I will pop into Dunhelm next time I am in Peterborough. I could also do one of these for the 'dog chair' (a rocking chair that is in our hallway and the only piece of furniture the dog is allowed on) as she as made the cushion filthy, hence why she is not allowed on any other furniture. A fleece throw will be much more washable than the cushion cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Thanks for the tip - I hate hot places. Don't worry about my wallet - I have plenty of will power where money is concerned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welovemarmite Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I got a couple yesterday. They are like snuggle sacs for sitting in. They have a zip half way down and then poppers, but you can undo them and they are a huge flat fleece. Not bad for £2.99. If you are going to the banbury one then they are in a big bin near the checkouts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Thanks, I'll try to get down there one evening this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I usually buy the cheap ones in Ikea but will pop in to the Swindon Dunelm Mill on Friday when I go to Sainsburys just opposite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I'll have a look. It'd be fun to leave them zipped up and see if the dogs can work out how to crawl in them like a sleeping bag. Ruby would suss it out in a flash but Cyrus is a wee bit 'challenged' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
