    I use the spradsheet that is avilable on here that was made by another poster.

    ohh that does sound useful. perhaps if u send the link to snowbrow they can edit their first post to include it so it diesn't get lost in the thread??

    Hi the spreadsheet that was available was on the xmas dfw 2008 challenge, and one of the posters created it and sent it to all who asked for it..

    A simple spreadsheet is all it was maybe someone could create one and then forward to all that would like one..

    Thankyou I have one but not sure how I past it onto everybody else not tech enough..

    Mine has who the item is for. where I bought it. where I have hidden it. Original cost. actual cost. saving.

    Maybe use your new one as mine is 2 years old..

    Everybody I know thinks I sad for having a christmas spreadsheet but its nice to see original cost and saving you have made..

    Hi all :)
    I`m sure i had been on this thread previously but obviously not as i`ve been reading through and i`m not here lol! I must be a lurker :D
    Well done all of you who have bought and spotted so many bargains!!

    This year i`m doing my xmas things throughout the year :)
    Xmas 09 was very hard and i had very little to give, my hubby had a fab hamper though that cost me approx £22 and most of the contents were freebies:T

    This year i am doing homemade bits and under £10 per gift!
    I have already cut up my 09 xmas cards and made gift tags :A I have bought reduced gift wrap/ribbons/bows and cellotape.

    Now i just need to make a start on the gifts :D x

    Slight blip in 2013 - Debtfree Aug 2014 :j

    Hi everyone, my OH said he will do me a sheet at work tomorrow and send me it so I can get it to everyone who needs one.

    He is pain at times but he loves anything like this so it will give him something to do in his lunch hour or is that the work hrs :D :rotfl:
