Hi,
Well done on the saving and good luck with the E-baying.

Don't forget to take some butties and a flask of coffee to have in the car park before you go into the park, then pack a few snacks for muching on between the rides.
Look up on the net the best way to 'do' the park, there are lots of hints and tips to make sure you get the most value out of your day.
Hope you have great weather and a fantastic time, keep up the good work.

Ahh, careful with the blonde, easy to break bleached hair. Watch it particularly when wet, go gently.
If you aren't having any luck with a college for hair stuff, try a mobile hairdresser, usually cheaper if you don't mind the fact that they use your shampoo, electric and hot water.
Enjoy the party.

As you love shopping take cash with you to pay for your food shopping it makes it more real. If you still have the urge to shop take some cash and find some bargains for Christmas and Birthday presents then when Christmas comes you won't have to spend so much.
