Morning!
Well you are all sounding so organised - in my mind I was going to be like Misty but it hasn't happened! I'm not too bothered though - I am more organised than I have ever been!
Thanks very much Tiggerplease rest assured though I only got there this year from being a touch over obsessed with it

not at all, just write down in a book who gave it to you so you dont give it them back. THATs cheeky
I second that jamtart.
yippee kye yay (love the name by the way), I recycle pressies all the time if I know we wouldn't use it don't waste it or bin it give it to someone else and then you're not only doing your bit for the environment:p you're saving yourself money which is the best bit.:T0 -
I got some skewers, my mam was in Tescos tonight and spotted them so she grabbed me two packs, 100 in each pack so have more then enough. I am going to make Chocolate Strawberrys yum yum
SARAHWe went to the grill on the alley for lunch, it was really nice and better still I didnt have to pay a penny!
JAMMYMy last day at work is this Friday. I havent sorted another job yet but I was supposed to have a two week holiday at Christmas so I am still going to have that and look after Christmas. Luckily I am getting a good redundancy pay and I am going to temp till I get myself sorted with a permanent job.
Everyone is doing so well, I know alot of you are saying that you arent organised but think of it this way, you might not have all your jobs done but this time last year did you have as much done as you do now???
Sorry if that doesnt make sense xxx0 -
Sorry everyone, i know this shouldn't be on here but it is money saving and everyone is SOOOO nice on this thread that i had to ask.
Does anyone want a code for £20 off virgin wine??? I wont use it but someone might?!?!? lol
..xxI am only me, no pretences, no second guesses.. It's the best I can do, I'm sorry if that's not good enough for you... I'm sorry I'm not good enough for you :A0 -
Hi all
permanent member of the naughty list here!
My coldy bug thing has got worse again and have spent all day in with the rest of the family (except taking DS to clinic appt). Still no Christmas cake for us!
Anyway wanted to pick your brains girls. DS has asked for some warhammer from Father Christmas he want the 40k space marines and I really don't have a clue what I should be getting or where from..I'm sure that someone here (was it Svevs and PML??) had hubbies who did it?? Sorry if I'm wrong was ages ago on old thread. ANy pointers for a beginner would be great
Thanks xxx
Hi furrypig
Ok shhhhhh my hubby works at gamesworkshop hq in Nottingham :rotfl: Their main thingy is warhammer. PM me what you are looking for and i will get him to find out how much with staff discountHe doesnt play himself. Hes in the warehouse.
furrypig says:my name is Choccy and I am addicted to nose free stamps as I want to save them all and give them noses!!!:rotfl:
About me. Im Choccy or Chocolate orange depending on where i am.Yes occasionally i am a total looon who spends too long online,but no where near as much £ as her spendy elves do ..:D0 -
Yay, I made the 'nice list'-today
My pledge for tomorrow is to actually pledge some money to the Salvation Army. I reckon I've 'saved' enough cash (through deals, Ebay etc)to be able to spare £19 to help. Have seen the adverts on the telly & that's what I'm gonna do-Christmas isn't a happy time for everyone.Jo x:A0
