    That's what annoys me I couldn't do anything like that I mean therss good ppl who want gok and fern ect not for profit can't get any, yet see ppl with trolley loads to but on ebay and take advantage of those who can't get out
    Makes my blood boil sorry

    I'm all for work and ppls income but personally I feel when see how much ppl put them on for they are taking advantage of those who can't get to the shop
    Ok vent over lol



    I know what you mean, there were people in front of me with trollies full to brimming and saying a lot would be put on ebay. Did make me really cross. I only ever buy as gifts or for myself, and DD has bits and pieces for her friends birthdays etc throughout the year.

    happy bunny, went in to my local at 8.45 got lots of nice things, (xmas sorted next year for the nieces and nephews) a few birthday presents, a few toys. Then went to the pharmacy and picked up my starbucks mugs (been wanting these for ages), then just managed to get on online and order a gok hat box.
    Thanks to all the people posting xx

    i took all the advice from the experienced folk on here, pre midnight I had my basket full of everything i might want AND listed them all in favourites encase my basket was emptied and was prepared to pay by paypal - it all went through easily
    THANK YOU! :)

    then i thought ohhh there's stuff i didn't notice i'll buy that as well - and it's an utter nightmare! the same problems i think most of you are having,
    next year i'm over preparing! clearly preparedness is not enough!
    Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.
    Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

    The thing that annoys me about people selling this stuff on Fleabay at over inflated prices is that there are people out there who don't know about this sale and think that they are getting a bargain. it is almost criminal.

    Well, finally managed to place an online order - only 11 hours to do so !!

    Unfortunately about 75% of what I had in my basket this morning had gone by the end but after so long I had to get something !!!!

    Went to Staines store earlier and didn't find one thing I liked....was going to buy something but thought why, I don't like it need it or want it and came away....a bit gutted about it all though.

    Well done to all of those who did well for themselves (esp if it is for yourselves/friends/family and not just to profit on ebay)
