    Hi all.

    I received my WHS order (a personalised book for DD1) was £20 last year, I paid £7.50 inc p+p for this one.

    I ordered DD2 some toys from Tesco's on Tuesday with £30 of vouchers and doubled up to £60. I paid £17 cash for £77 worth of stuff. On wednesday morning there was an offer on, spend £75 and get 1,000 extra points free. Missed out on that by about 30 minutes. GRRR. Need to collect if from the store over the weekend sometime.

    Poor you elysia for missing out on the extra points - I've been on the look out for these too and can't find any!

    I like the idea of the breakfast hamper to use for my mums hamper. I have already bought a cafetiere and some nice teabags to go along side the denby set and lovely saucer plates might have another mosey on Snebenhams site to see if I can find some nice cups to go alongside this set. Have cereal bowls and might get some cereal to go with them

    In fact what am I on about - just remembered - will make some granola to go with them instead as cereal gift

    There is another granola recipe in the christmas book which I can't find on the site but will have a look in my book for the christmassy version

    I made this granola version last year and it was nice. Might make those breakfast bars for me :D
