    Thanks :D

    Anyone know where you can buy credit card holders from? Like in a wallet how there is a few little sections for it, I know you can buy things just to hold them... I've seen some on ebay and I'll buy one off there if need be but would be nice to know if anyone has seen them elsewhere.

    Like these.. http://product-image.tradeindia.com/00260784/b/0/Leather-Credit-Card-Holders.jpg

    or even http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CREDIT-CARD-HOLDER_W0QQitemZ280405404251QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMen_s_Accessories_UK?hash=item414976ea5b

    I've seen some lovely ones on Etsy, might be a bit pricey though?

    I would try the smaller shoe shops - i know ours usually has a section at the front next to the checkout with masses of purses, wallets, credit card holders etc in and theyre usually quite cheap too. Im sure ive seen them in the likes of BHS etc too :)

  • totally off topic, ive had a few crazy days, but im guna tell you all anyway!

    monday was redundancy day at his work and im happy to say he still has his job!

    tuesday was shopping in town and witness a bloke hit by a bus, which was very scary and i worked myself into a state of shock thinking about it because i couldnt get the image of him recieving cpr out of my head! but i have heard in the paper that the man is fine with no serious injuries. so thats made me feel a bit calmer

    then today mother in law had another mini stroke! shes fine though! so that was another worrie squashed thank god!

    anyhow back to the thread!
    i have only one thing to report im afriad. was in wilkinsons and they had the wilkinsons sword vibrating razor with a facial trimmer on the other end. it was £8.97 in boots but i got it for £3.something. so this will go with father in laws aftershave and body spray set
  • what about the boxes bananas come in - shallow but big enough. you might have to get some extra cardboard to go in the bottom as there's usually a hole in them . lettuces also come in large shallow boxes...and peppers


    That's a great idea, I might do that too :T. I think I've seen them at the end of the tills in Morrisons.

    That all sounds very scary, I'm glad each event ended better than expected. It sounds like you need a nice, relaxing bar of chocolate and glass/bottle of wine.

  • i think i must have put on about 8stone yesterday after seeing the bus incident i was shaking really violently and everyone i spoke said i needed a sweet coffee. 3 mugfuls later it was doing no good so i went just a little bit crazy on the chocolate drawer! oops!

    i think u can get a no7 one from boots, spend £5 and u get a no7 voucher worth£5 so put £1 to it an get your cc holder. i buy a £5 top up for mobile and u get a voucher back
    Starting to save £2 coins again, but it is a struggle:rotfl:Not doing very well keep spending them
