#Bargainoftheweek: Save Up to £30 on Father's Day Gifts at Truprint

Father's Day is quickly approaching ( it's the 21st of June this year in case you'd forgotten!) and it's time to start thinking about the perfect gift for the Dad or Daddies in your life.

As a married mother of two, Father's Day is no longer just about buying presents for my own Dad, I now need to find the perfect gifts for the father of my children and my Father-in-Law too! That's not even including present's to Grandads from the their grandchildren although we often have a crafty day and make these!

With so many gifts to buy I need to ensure I get the most out of the money I spend. I was delighted to hear about Truprint's exclusive Father's Day offer where you can Save £30 when you spend £50 on their site*.

That sounds great doesn't it? With this offer you will be getting your personalised photo gifts for less than half price! What I wanted to find out though was what you could actually get for £50 (or just £20 when you use the discount code?) Could I really get presents for all the Dads in our family for just £20? (plus postage)

The lovely folks at Truprint challenged me to find out exactly that!

What I got for £50 at Truprint.co.uk

• A beautiful Father's Day card with photos on the front, a message inside and even an image on the back £2.75 - My 4 and 7 year olds sat with me to help me design it and the process was so simple to do

• A personalised 10"x8" photo jigsaw puzzle with 120 pieces £9.99 - ideal for a Grandad that loves his puzzles

• A set of six photo coasters with images from our holiday £14.99 - a great gift as a set or ideal to split up and gift together with a mug

• A 7x5" Wooden Photo Panel with stand £11.99 - perfect for Daddy's desk at work

• An A5 spiral bound lined notebook with image and 'Daddy's Notes' printed on the front £6.99 - this will help Daddy with all his planning for the scout group he runs and make him smile every time he sees the picture on front 

In conclusion I was thrilled with the selection of gifts available from Truprint, the website was really easy to use and creating the gifts was a pleasure. I thought the quality of all of the items we ordered was fantastic and can't wait to see the look on the recipients faces when they open them on Father's Day!

The array of items I managed to get for £50 was impressive and excellent value for money even before the discount is applied!

Lest we forget...

Today we attended our local remembrance service and took time to think of those who served their country and those who have lost their lives.

Instead of sharing my own words I wanted to share some that I always have in mind on remembrance day, this poem always makes me think of my dear departed Grandad...

The Final Inspection

The soldier stood and faced God, 

Which must always come to pass.

He hoped his shoes were shining,

Just as brightly as his brass.

Step forward now, you soldier,

How shall I deal with you ?

Have you always turned the other cheek?

To My Church have you been true?'

The soldier squared his shoulders and said,

No, Lord, I guess I ain't.

Because those of us who carry guns,

Can't always be a saint.

I've had to work most Sundays,

And at times my talk was tough.

And sometimes I've been violent,

Because the world is awfully rough.

But, I never took a penny,

That wasn't mine to keep...

Though I worked a lot of overtime,

When the bills got just too steep.

And I never passed a cry for help,

Though at times I shook with fear.

And sometimes, God, forgive me,

I've wept unmanly tears.

I know I don't deserve a place,

Among the people here.

They never wanted me around,

Except to calm their fears.

If you've a place for me here, Lord,

It needn't be so grand.

I never expected or had too much,

But if you don't,

I'll understand.

There was a silence all around the throne,

Where the saints had often trod.

As the soldier waited quietly,

For the judgment of his God.

Step forward now, you soldier,

You've borne your burdens well.

Walk peacefully on

Heaven's streets,

You've done your time in Hell.

Anon
