At Christmas we had a look at the Little Miss collection in TK Maxx. It was £25, not bad, but we ended up not getting it. I was glad we didn't as last month we picked them up from the same store for £18. It was the last set and didn't come with a box, but we didn't mind that. Considering the books retail at £2.50 each or 2 for £2-£2.50 these worked out at 50p each (or somewhere along those lines). Bargain! We're always reading them and really chuffed with this find.
Definitely worth looking at the kids books in TK Maxx!

That's great Glynis, as you say, works out at very little per book and the kids love them. My daughter started reading them to herself too, when she got good enough at reading.
Enjoy |

An excellent bargain Glynis! I always like to have a little look around in TK Maxx you can pick up some great bits in there. Their sales are often very good.

I did not know TK Max sold books!
I thought it was only clothes, not that I have ever ventured inside....must go look next time I'm in town. My kids used to love Mr & Miss books. And Becky has been collecting them for my Grandaughter.
