Glo-Worm is £5 in ASDA baby event atm! I think the Jumperoo is also on offer on the ASDA website, if not in Argos.

 

[Blah11]

£95 for a jumperoo?! That's really expensive, you should be able to get one for £60-70ish!

if you don't mind getting the precious planet one, it's on sale in Argos for £59.99 at the mo.

 

[Blah11]

Also, last year in November, Tesco and Homebase and B&Q.. loads of places.. had loads of christmas trees and decs for half price. I'm getting mine then
