I'm so excited.

Ive been in hospital all weekend as ive had a few problems but im okay now, but DF left me with the laptop and dongle.

BIG MISTAKE:rotfl:

I have ordered loads of litle bits for hampers and stocking fillers and i cant wait for the postie to arrive.

Off to see what else i can find...

Hi everyone!!

I've been buying more Xmas pressies. Am really chuffed with myself - have got the coolest pressie for my Dad - who had me tearing my hair out about what to buy him!!!
Was going to buy him and Mum a joint pressie of a camcorder but plans have changed so I wont be able to afford it in time :rolleyes:
Mum is easy to buy for - have got her some gorgeous Swarovski crystal flower earrings and a perfume set as well as some other bits - and poking about online I found a pressie that I laughed for ages about - I've bought my Dad a share in a Gold Mine!!!!!!!! :rotfl:Perfect for the man who has everything....

Aww ((HUGS)) hope it wasn't anything too stressful/painful. Glad to hear you're ok now.

I really need to start orgainsing my Christmas stash. I have presents and boxes of chocolates spread accross the house, have actually lost a few pressies, I'm that disorganised!

Oooh postie arrived this morning and delivered a nice gift for my DF from lovehearts.com.

Got him a nice gift box with ''i love you'' love hearts in 1/2 price in the reduced section and there is a 10% discount code aroud somewhere - i'm sure i found the code on a thread in grabbit but i cant find the actual thread now. It's worth every penny as the box itself is top quality. Although i would have been slighty disapointed if i had paid full price for it. But it wouldn't be very MSE of me to pay full price.

Although i am going to email them to tell them off as the packaging wasnt very discreet as it had swizzels matlow and lovehearts.com all over the box, luckilly he's at work so hasnt seen it but if he had been here i would have had to make up a good story as to what it was.

I am practically finished now, just a few more fillers to buy and im done. Then i have to start on the xmas dinner and decorations.

hi all!
havent been around for a few days as my nanna was rushed into a+e on thursday and we were all told to go and say 'goodbye'. luckily she pulled through!
then on friday i was very ill, i was even hallucinating which was very scary! and the kids have picked it up too altho not as bad, thank god. my son and i are better now but dd is still quite ill. dh wasnt effected in the slightest!!

so the (longwinded)moral of the story is, i havent been able to do much in regards to xmas this last week. altho my friend said they have the butterkist toffee popcorn fior £1 in b&m. its the 6 pack multibag ones. so i have asked her to picked me 3bags up for my movie hampers. very handy having your best friend work opposite b&m, toys r us and boots!

yippee_kye_yay

forgot to say, hope your better now princess

((((((((hugs)))))))) to all those that have had a tricky time over the last few days, good to have you back! I just realised that I was so focused on getting xmas gifts that I now have no spare cash until my next pay day :eek:. I guess weeks of eating pasta will be worth it when I see people enjoying their gifts .

Ooops I forgot to say in our two local boots shops they had a number of different childrens perfumes reduced to £1 - £2.50. They make ideal stocking fillers or wee extras for xmas!

Glad to hear you and your nanna are ok Yippee Kye Yay, sounds like a nightmare week! Popcorn bags sound great, I'm doing a movie hamper for my boyfriend for Valentine's Day though so not sure whether the date would be long enough on it for me to get them now and stash it away.

I got a stocking off ebay recently with a tube of glitter glue for OH's personalised one, as well as a sudoku cube, some hama beads and boards to make magnets and coasters, and a packet of dried Naga chillis (world's hottest) to go in his chilli hamper feels like good progress!
