OH might be tight on everyday things but he goes overboard the other way for Wil. This is what he has bought Wil for his birthday

My niece has the same one and Wil loves playing in it so he will be made up with it.

My parents are contributing to it and any money MIL and FIL send will go towards it too because I don't want Wil having massive amounts spent on him each birthday so he comes to expect it.

He had a swing for the garden last year (£100) and then OH went out and spent another £100 on a bouncy castle.

Lily has this same house but slightly different colours and absolutely LOVES it!! I am sure it will be worth every penny you have spent on it as she really has spent hours in it.

Ours was also from ebay and we managed to get it from some very rich people by offering £50.... i guess they did not need the money

Aw bless your oh! We are getting Tayla a pink playhouse but its only £59.99 in toyrus, i dont get why Little Tykes is so expensive? (sorry i dont mean that to be rude?)

Aw lovely wil will love it. We got given one very similar but in pink and purple and she loves it. Im currenty nagging neil to clean and cut back the garden and cover the pond so she can go out and play in it this summer

Someone offered the seller £75 for this one and she told them to sod off. I bet she is glad she did now.

I bet! I got given ours cos the roofs a lil warped but c doesnt care!
