    Morning all :D Ds is off to his dads in about half an hour and I can't decide whether to go salaes shopping or stay in and have a mooching around kinda day :rolleyes: I'm tempted by the latter but this is the only day of the holidays where ds isn't here so may be my only opportunity to hit the sales ;)

    Sales in the morning......mooching in the afternoon with your feet up.....

    Happy Boxing day x

    I too have the dilemma of going to the sales or mooching and tidying up house however my bank balance has taken a rough ride recently and so therefore the sensible thing for me is to stay at home and have a NSD :rolleyes:

    Yeah I think I'm heading the same way tbh Ladypink, theres nothing I really need and knowing I have that money from my parents means I will pslurge on stuff just cos its reduced rather than cos I need it :o Hmm, think I may give them a miss, may stay in and try and find some matched bets for the footie and make some pennies instead of spending them ;):D

    Well I sneaked out to the sales after all, never could resist the thought of a bargain :o:o It wasn't anywhere near as busy as I thought it would be, got a few bits, nothing majorly exciting ... a pair of boots for work which I have been meaning to get for ages as my ones don't have any grip and I wanted some for the winter with a chunky sole and good grip, (£25 reduced from £50), a chunky brown jumper and a pair of brown trousers for work (£9 and £8) and a few bits for ds (jeans £4, think 2 x chunky jumpers £9 each). I also picked up a couple of bits to put into my present box for aunts birthdays during the year.

    Just having some lunch and catching up with corrie as I didn't see it over the last few days.

    Tigz I think we did say tuesday, shall we come to you, you come here or meet somewhere??

    Hi Benben, Professor Layton is highly addictive. I had 'Pandoras Box' for Xmas and am addicted to that one already...
