    We've eaten the pringles, the chocolate fingers, a tin of celebrations, 2 boxes of mince pies and SOMEONE seems to have eaten the Thorntons that were secretly stashed away. . .

  • Have been really good this year, not opened any tins of choccies or any
    pringles even though they call to me in the bedroom:confused:
  • We've not opened anything, probably will during the week though! :]
  • We always get loads of treats in for Xmas and I have been good and haven't cracked them open; well apart from a tin of Roses.

    I usually feel sick the moment we open the chocs and get overwhelmed that I don't feel like stuffing my face :)
  • Trying to not buy it then I cant eat it
    I have however drunk most of the xmas booze I had put away (blush blush)
    Will have to get some more in now

    All truth goes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Then, it is violently opposed. Finally, it is accepted as self-evident.

    I've started on the Xmas whisky, was saving that for when I cook Xmas dinner-mind you there's still plenty left.

    I made mince pies yesterday and today to freeze...ummm...well :whistle: I am a mince pie monster:D

    I haven't bought anything we can't resist yet, I used to get lots of sweets and alcohol as prizes for sales promos in a previous job and since I stopped doing that job we really cut down on how much choclate etc was in the house at Christams. If it's there I eat it so the only way to avoid it is not to buy it in the first place.

  • We have been munching mincepies since mid-november! And after eights since they have been sold at pound land! My mum bought us a tin of quality sweets last week, but I think we've only had a couple each, so so far pretty good for us, normally we would have had loads by now!
