Hi all - yes, great thread, thanks Just Thrifty.
Like others have said just have had so many things is difficult to decide and the diversity is amazing.
Have to agree about Rabbitx radio link - have been hooked ever since!!!!
and love my posh little bottle of Clavin Klein S.O (thanks M.D.).
Have had brilliant stuff for nieces and nephews - memberships to clubs with loads on websites plus lovely/fun free gifts and the urban cricket kit which was really great (sorry, can't remember poster's name)
Have had fab. full size make up: lipsticks, foundation, mascara plus loads of toiletries.
and so many household items: batteries, glasses, mugs, razors, treats for pets, washing stuff .... (can't possibly list them),
brilliant childrens/teaching resources both on line and through the post such as the Penny Black Project,
liked my Matterbox and my laptop is bursting with links for games, music, soft ware, 'useful' sites, children's stuff, resources, e-cards, personlised fun stuff, hobbies/crafts , environmentally friendly sites, etc., etc., etc. - I will never be bored again .........
.... now always have a glossy or interesting 'coffee table' mag or two lying around .... !!!
... have been to film screenings and had meals out ...
the list is endless. Although free, apart from being exciting getting them, they make me feel rich!!!!! - thanks everbody!!!!
Love logging onto laptop knowing there are now links for endless fun, entertainment and interest but think my personal luxury fave is bottle of Calvin Klein.
(Sorry - this was a bit long!)
Edit - my New years Resolution may have to be 'stop talking' or 'don't be boring' !!!!!!0 -
My Nikwax sample was great, and I'm looking forward to getting some free trees in Colchester next week.
Plus of course, free chat

£5 M&S voucher has to be the most memorable! £20 boots voucher from Pigsback ... £10 M&S valued Opinions ... Olay moisturiser ... perfume sample postcards (the ones that actually arrived). Signed up for the Matter box so that's one for 2009. Sounds like I missed loads too.
