can i check whether purchasing pressies on Boxing day for the following Christmas counts as being within the christmassy period?
I have to admit i'm bar humbug about things like decorating too early but i do get pressies sorted out way in advance so i can try and get them in the sales.
Jody that's a huge amount to spend at christmas, sounds like you're going to save yourself a fortune this year if you only do token pressies, just be careful not to add others to your list cos you're not spending as much on the normal ones (easy to do by accident) and that your token pressies don't end up too expensive as well.0 -
I think that counts as within this Christmassy period Lemon Tree
My friend rang me today to say can you believe the shops have Christmas carols on today, now that is bad!LBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

Hi Woowoo!
I've finally got to the end of your diary (after about 2 weeks!) and I just wanted to day that I think you're doing amazingly well. I love the idea of making lots of payments, and they soon add up. DH and I pay a set amount each month on payday, and what's left is for us, but I think i'm going to see what I can shave off the various budgets to make some extra payments too.
