No Money Mummy to Millionaire Mummy!!

Pips_Mum

I had so much to carry I had to ring OH to come and get me as I physically could not carry it all! I am really annoyed though as Disney store had mickey mouse clubhouse kitchens £40 down to £14 and I hadnt got an arm spare!!

I sat and wrapped them all up last night, labelled them all and even wrote the birthday cards out for the first couple of months so all I need do is give them to the person!!!
Feel really sick today like a hangover without the booze! Supposed to be going out for a meal later as well :-(

Wow - I thought I was organised lol - mine are still pending delivery and will be pushed under the bed till needed. It is stressful sale shopping (especially when you run out of arms lol) - I gave it a miss for the first time ever but got some nice bits online. Enjoy your meal! x

Meal was ok thanks Pinky.

Popped into town again and got my last presents, also got a family organiser calendar half price. I like to have a calendar with different columns as I have one for me, one for OH, one for Pip and one for meal plans.

Ive been doing my flylady emails and today was to sort through your Makeup so I did my makeup bag and also my toiletry cupboard. I found there were some bits in there that I am never ever going to use so I threw them out and had a reshuffle. It all looks so much tidier and I dont feel bad MSE wise as I only chucked the useless stuff.

Hows your week going?

We've actually had a lovely stress free week, so nice not to have to rush anywhere or get up early. Kids back to school soon tho so will have to get back into a routine. Roll on the next hols.
I am still waiting for a boots delivery still no sign tho x

You've had a good sort out, agree re the make-up got to do my bags - tend to lose one bag then grab another and chuck sum stuff in.

Went shoppinh yesterday picked up some xmas cards half price card factory, - the named one - friends, inlaws, aunties etc, a few bits in M+S sale, so there be a few prezzies sorted, best bargain was m+s birthday book set, was £9.50 reduced to £2.00 mums claimed it for one of her friends, as we do the postal surveys (get 12 x 1st and 4 x large 1st free a month) said put stamps with it, plan is to get organised with the lists and present allocation next yr.

wish you a happy New Year xx

Happy New Year hope 2011 is a good one.

I've also started to do a fair bit of christmas shopping and a few birthdays as well, but i'm nowhere near as organised as you. I did get paper though some of which i can use for birthdays. I certainly haven't wrapped things up yet, i'm still getting over the trauma of the christmas wrapping just done.

everyone is getting so organised on here, there sounds some good bargains.

On bargain hunting - I know Argos has their sale, but if you go on their home page scroll down and theres a section in yellow and black, - called catalogue clearance, you can then specifiy what store you want, (I don't work for Argos honeslty!), - I find on average that 90% of the stock is accurate, i've got DD a halloween cape, hat and broom, (adults size) reduced from £10.00 to £2.50.

def worth a look - generally on all yr round xx

Happy New Year, and may it be a year full of health, wealth and good wishes. xx
