    I'll probably end up getting one for myself if it smells nice :D I love most of the Britney Spears perfumes, and they last me ages. I gave my sister a bottle at Xmas and it was ALL GONE 3 weeks later? What was she doing, bathing in it?

    I'll need keep an eye out on the grabbit board for cheapy offers for it, or maybe Boots, I think they are changing their voucher to perfume ones soon.....I still have a No7 one to use but I don't need foundation so nevermind!

    Thing is she DOES know the other numbers, she just can't be bothered I think. We live on the 8th floor and I'll say to her what number is that (pointing to the giant 8 in the landing) and she'll shout 8, then If I ask her again, she'll start going...

    42, 12, 53,3, stinky bum poopy head. Yeah nice one....lol

    Well OH wants a game for Xmas for his ps3 :rolleyes: He moans about having no clothes yet makes no effort to get them himself, I can't do it for him!!

    Well she just needs more trousers and tops really but saying that I just came across a black bag full of hand me down clothes from my sister, so I really don't need to get her that much now, maybe a nice dress for Xmas, pyjamas, she needs new winter boots and a pair of jeans or 2.

    I just ask OH's mum to nip in by Mckays and she buys it.......:o

    Yeah I will try and lay off the coke, I just love the fizzy burst in my mouth, i tried sparkling water and it's not that nice. But diet coke is expensive too.

    Still need to get DD's Xmas presents, think it's the roller skates/helmet set, a bed spread for her bed, maybe some peppa pig books, another puzzle and some books.

    She'll be getting loads from other people aswell so .... :)
    I'm the same as you with Diet coke, it's virtually all I drink unless I'm somewhere it's not available, I been totting it up and I spend about £10 a week on it :eek: (dont tell SM :rotfl:)
    Need to cut it out, i've so far never had a fuilling, but i now me teeth aint right :o

    Thats the same as the stuff i've bought for Jake its all been on offer so haven't spent as much as i would have done if it had been full price.

    Sami - Jake loves jigsaws as well he's got quite a few but seems to manage to lose all the pieces for them, theyre probably all at the bottom of his toybox somewhere! Does the ebay seller sell them with numbers on or just names? Jake keeps trying to count but at the minute every number is "2" so would like to encourage him to learn more!
    there's a few diff ones, can't find the one I was thinking off though :eek:
    I think asda do a puzzle with 0-9 on it though

    BM that came to £86, I've spent £82 with just puzzle to get £12 coz Christopher is such a long name :p my budget was £100 and I've actuall moved some stuff off his christmas ist on too his b-day list (jan) coz I've got much more for my money being mse ;)
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Well our limit for her is £150, so not near that yet :D But most of things were cheap, the eyepet and easel is what eats up most of it, but those are quite BIG things and really I shouldn't even count the eyepet as OH was going to buy the camera anyways (I actually just remembered I got the eyepet for £25 off amazon, I had ordered it for £30 off play and noticed Amazon were £5 cheaper, so MSE :p)

    We don't want the camera so we can record ourselves singing to singstar and upload it......*whistle*

    It would be easier to save money on things for her if I knew EXACTLY what I wanted to get her but I don't, plus sometimes you get bad luck, buy it one day and it's on sale the next. I did see a helmet/elbow/knee pad set from somewhere....for £9.99, I think it was Argos, which is good cause my Valued Opinions has just hit £10 so that's essentially going to be free.

    What roller skates would be better for her? Proper leather type ones or the plastic ones they put on their feet whilst still wearing shoes? My sister has princess roller skates and Keira loves them and incidentally we walked passed a charity shop (it was closed as it was Sunday) and they had them in the window, looked new enough but I'm not sure I'd want to buy 2nd hand stuff for Xmas, or even for that matter 2nd hand roller skates cause they might have some sort of fungal disease in them for all I know, and It IS Keira, she is nude most of the time, she will deffo put her feet in those without socks.

    It's all I drink too, soooo bad but I bet I spend more than £10 a week on it. I can EASY drink 15 cans in a day. I don't often, but that's only because I restrain myself.

    My mum tells me I should go get checked for diabetes cause I'm always drinking, we were in Mcdonalds and I took a large DC and my mum got a large one too, I finished mine within 2minutes and had to keep pinching hers because my mouth was so dry, probably all the salty chips but mmmmmm, crap food.

    I'm not sitting on no deposit bingo sites winning money because OH got a new bank card and they don't know that one.....

    Can't believe people in the chat are ripping my name off, Beantoasties is a great bingo name! Just jealous cause I just won about £30, that's away to get withdrawed.....next site!
