    shoes...:smileyhea ... why are they so pretty.... i tend to go for comfort most the timebut its soo nice to have fancy ones.

    Shopgirl, I find menu planning really helpful, not that i always follow it ;) but it helps to stop me from buying things i don't need. Unfortunalty alchol always seems to 'jump' into my trolley even thou its not on my list :rotfl:

    Aaaargh! I put the paperwork down for my insurance and I can't find it!!!!! For goodness sake people...what's wrong with me?!?!?!?!?:mad: :mad: :mad: Kaz2904, evab and gallygirl...and all the rest of you who are trying to sort me out...sorry!!!!! I'm on the case!:o

    Ema_o...I'm, soooo jealous, my shoes are in a very small space - maybe I should move house to accommodate them?;)

    Smlsave...gonna try meal planning this week - but I know what you mean about alcohol - it's very jumpy - lots of it always ends up in my trolley. How does that happen?:p

    Hopefully next time I'm here - the insurance will be gone...don't hold your breath!:rotfl:
