    Hey Snaggles!

    I too have been buying bargains online - nearly finished shopping now, apart from a few more bits for my mum and bf and a couple of bits for kids stockings - I'm thinking pens and pencils lol.

    Pens and pencils are just fine!! My DD loved post-it notes too, especially those in neon colours........cheap, and very cheerful.........just watch for the children sticking things on your back when you are not looking ;)

    Sea! How funny, I was just thinking this morning that I hadn't 'seen' you for ages, and hadn't realised you'd posted on here! (Is 'bf' best friend or boyfriend?? Spill woman!! :D)

    Both of my two love pens, pencils, art stuff...so they will be good stocking filler options, thanks.

    Hypno, I still can't talk, so maybe I could get the Post-Its for me? :D

    I'm off to an Ann Summers party tonight, which will be interesting with no voice. I will have to make little signs so I can communicate I think. Just little phrases that will come in handy throughout the evening, such as 'Hello', 'yes', 'no', 'more wine please', 'do you have any bigger ones?'......etc..... :rotfl:

    Confession time, I went to Home Bargains and B&M, and bought some extra little presents for the kids. Also bought the kids some desperately needed winter clothes, and some frozen food in Sainsburys, so I really dread to think how much is on the credit card now. Going to have to be :A :A to finish the month within budget.

    Who would choose December as the right month to start sticking to a tight budget?? :doh:

    Just had an email from Asda. I had emailed them to complain that I had twice had items missing from my shopping, and was unimpressed with their substitutions (boys nappies instead of girls, £3.50 wine instead of £5.50 wine in the 3 for £10 offer...this one is particularly irritating as has happened 100% of the time so far - I would accept the odd one or two).

    They've just refunded me £5. Not a huge amount maybe, but more than the cost of the missing shopping, and a nice gesture.

    Still sticking to Tescos from now on though! :rotfl:
