Good idea re chocolates, very handy to have spares for xmas.

Ann Summers - are we seeing Jnr Suragspun no 2!! xx

I've got two small boxes for my parents' neighbours because they've apparently been taking in parcels all year. And Jr.1's only ten weeks old - I'm lucky if I can muster the energy to smile at her father, much less make a new baby :rotfl:

Evening all,

I am back 1 month since my laptop broke, I am trying to get everything back loaded onto the laptop, and get everything going again, so its gonna take a while to catch up with all the posts. Did I miss anything MAJOR?

I am feeling quite organised about things from the man in the red suit, I've got quite a few things pre-ordered from Play.com and the final santa lists are being prepared this next week and posted a week today, and then after that the kids can't change their mind so that will give me a chance to get going.

Got quite a few payouts due just redeemed vouchers from valuedopinions for Argos, so the longwinded surveys are paying off!

Got £49 scheduled to be paid out from quidco, and got quite a lot listed on ebay, play and amazon in the last couple of days, away to go and get more listed just now, so that'll help with the funding side of things.

I 've missed this thread so much in the last month, hope everyone is well, and keeping up to date with their lists! Sarah i've missed the daily jokes!

Glad to be back - kalojac x

Think I may have to buy an extra "Decoration" for my kids, I spotted this on Next.co.uk...

I think £12 is a fab price for a bedding set from next, though I think I'll pop into my local one next week and see what kind of quality it is.

That is gorgeous, I'd love one for dd, but she has a double quilt, but £12 from Next is an amazing price xx

Ladies

Argos have their Christmas catalogue out and there are some bargains in there,

The catalogue is now covered with ticks, dd has got her hands on it.

Flicking through it quickly -
Top suggestions-

p 26 Playboy (half price - avoid the "rug", its actually a mat for the bathroom, + pretty in pink half price - gorgeous little foudue £10.

p29 mens leather gifts - there what I call older mens gifts,

p35 no 25 cat no- 2554169 skulls wall clock halfprice £7.49 (reminded me - got memory like a sieve- is it rufusd!!!2 making the quilt for her daughter, the clock reminded me of the quilt.
