    OMG Glam 300 items!!! That's crazy but I would be exactly the same if I came across quality items for pence!

    I know - I just can't help myself. I hate shopping for my own clothes so think I've just gone a bit mad on baby :o Can always keep it for next one or do some eBay bundles.

    Just made my list of stuff I need to buy for hospital bag, thankfully not too much - will go to Matalan, Tesco and ASDA and pick up some cheapie nighties and slippers sometime when I'm on Mat Leave.

    Where does the time go? :think:

    Someone is selling very nice peter rabbit stuff on ebay if anyone is interested. I havent used seller before but thaught it might be of interest to someone. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Beatrix-Potter-Peter-Rabbit-Curtains-pelmet-tieback_W0QQitemZ130323346662QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Home_Garden_Curtains_Blinds_Curtains_EH?hash=item1e57e074e6&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14
  • 300 items Glam!! That is a lot of baby clothes. I don't blame you for picking up bargains though. OH and I are both supposed to be off next sunday so might drag him to a local car boot to grab some more bits. I also love some of the stuff that Asda have at the moment so might grab some bits from there as well. My Nan has just given me £100 for baby bits so might splash some of that on clothes as we don't really need anything else.

    Kindof- I'm glad my OH gets his MacDonalds fix at work as it does nothing for me, although I did have my fair share of fries in the first trimester, but thankfully have gone off it now.

    I've been wanting (craving?) all sorts of junk food that I wouldn't normally eat, certainly not in these quantities anyway! Had 2 McD's, and a KFC in the last 4 days, plus today my usually healthy breakfast of a banana and a low fat chocolate shake (for the calcium) and wholemeal toast was replaced by a pancak stack which consisted of 2 massive fluffy american style pancakes and 4 rashers of bacon! :eek:

    I hope it passes soon otherwise I'll be putting on so much weight!

    Oh yeah, and I just had a bit of an accident with 3 quarters of a 200g bag of tortilla chips and half a tub of sour cream and chive dip! Oops! Not done my wisdom teeth any favours crunching on them either. :confused:
  • Ooh now tortillas and sour cream I could eat now!!!! Don't have either in though. I've also been craving chilli with sour cream and avocado since I saw it on Economy Gastronomy this week. Will have to get a portion of chilli out the freezer and invest in an Aldi 29p avo!

    Just tried to do some eBay listing and my camera's memory card is playing up so I can't upload any flipping photos. Have managed to list two items, the rest will have to wait.

    Just set a load of snipes on eBay up for the next few days since i always forget to check my watch list and miss everything :D Not on baby stuff though, just leggings and stuff.

    Evil ex's mobile bill just went out of my account, i was going to leave it but i think i'll ring bank on Monday and get them to reverse it, since i'm getting my car fixed on Monday. :o
    Plus he rang earlier and hasn't changed his stance (i.e blaming me for us splitting) so he can get stuffed.
  • I'd definitely not pay it Beenie, as long as it's in his name not yours!

    I've accidentally started looking at handbags on eBay- this is not good!

    Yeah it's in his name, i made him set the DD from my account so it went out with all the other bills (read, so i could control all the money LOL). I asked him what he wanted to do about it and he said cancel it. It's only £25 cos i made him downgrade contract, but stuff that, i'm skint! :D

    Definitely cancel it Beenie! You have more important things to be spending your money on than your ex's mobile!!

    GISI - accidentally started looking at handbags? Love it!
