Many thanks WM - just been to Asda and got 2 boxes of 99 Size 5 Baby Dry for £6 each :money: that's 6p a nappy :T:T

They also have boxes of 6 packs of johnsons wipes (the pink ones) for £2.50 :money::money:

Wish I had bought more than 2 of each now

Thanks MFD. Was just going to post that I have seen a few posts on the grabbit board saying that Asda stores has the pampers on at £6.

Also for anyone using Huggies (Beenie - Where are you?) a poster has said they are £5.50 per box.

3 we have been in size 5's for a while now but I don't think he is in any danger of growing out of them any time soon. If anything he seems to be losing his little belly

I am also currently having to buy 18-24 month clothes because all his 12-18 month stuff is getting a little tight on him. Although he has been in 18-24 sleepsuits for a while now. Do these kids ever stop growing?

I think I am going to have to put him in proper pj's soon too his 18-24 sleepsuits are starting to pull at the neck

Am I a bad mother in that William hasn't worn a sleepsuit since he was about 5 months old :eek: and at present sleeps in PJ's from Asda's which comprise of a short sleeved t shirt and a pair of shorts:think:

Maz, not as bad as I am - S sleeps in a nappy and a sleeping bag and that is all!

My asda has no bargain nappies cos its a big store that normally sells big boxes anyway

12-18 trousers are fine on S, but t shirts are starting to be a struggle going over his head, so phasing out the small 12-18 ones is starting and the unpacking of 18-24 ones is occurring have given up on Primark t shirts for him as he outgrows them so quickly, sticking to asda ones from now on!

Trousers are hit and miss ATM. He has a pair of combats on today that are minimode I think - 12-18m and they are turned up. But he was in a pair of Saisburys jeans 12-18m yesterday and they were erring towards the short side.

It is mainly a t-shirt thing for us too....although I don't want to buy too many short sleeves because then he will end up in long sleeved vests under them in winter again (and I am rubbish at getting the cuffs clean )

I would worry that Benjamin would get cold. He sleeps in a vest and sleepsuit and we quite often put his little oil filled radiator on to keep the temperature up in the night.

If it drops below 19 degrees he wakes in the night *shrugs* good job our kids are a different as their mothers!!

Will need to buy him some bed socks


Edit - I wouldn't get Benjamin in a sleeping bag for anything these days!

I need a bit of advice, I have a job interview in an "adult shop" next week as a sales assistant, it's a brand new shop. How should i dress to this interview? He's not asked for a CV or anything, and I called about it yesterday and I know my mum did too but he texted her today saying she was unsuccesful for an interview, I can only think he wants younger people working there?

I need this job, kicking keira's dad out, he has until saturday to get the hell out of my life, so it will just be me and her, and probably a private nursery and poorness ensue!

We've given up on vests now, the poppers annoyed us
When he gets old enough to want to play with the contents of his nappy we will go back to them now doubt!!!

Get some long sleeved white t shirts and bleach them when they dont come clean in the wash

Pencil skirt and a nice blouse/top Buttons

You don't want to dress slutty but you don't want to look dowdy either. Just what you are - a young mum with an open mind looking for a job.

Will you be getting a discount that you can share with your friends?


Edit - not that my goody drawer gets any action these days - last night I fell asleep on hubby whilst he was getting all smoochy!!

I can't wear skirts MFD! I have awful calves, I have polish farm wife legs! I usually wear leggings and a dress of some sort, but I have big boobs so probably always looks slightly provocative :eek: this guy is probably an uber perv so im not sure which approach to take on this

well I'm hoping if I get it I will get to sample new lines (but not the anal beads or owt! )

My_Fathers_Daughter

I can't say I have every examined the legs of a polish farm wife but I take it that it is not a compliment

Just because he runs an adult shop doesn't mean he is an uber perv....you should know better than to be casting aspersions than those working in adult shops!!

I'd wear a blouse and trousers, but possibly put a vest under the blouse and have the top few buttons undone? And a smart jacket but not necessarily a suit jacket IYSWIM.

Really hope it works out for you! Take a CV with you and leave it with him even if he doesnt ask for it. Good luck xxx
