Do you buy yourself a christmas present?

MrsTinks

Noooooo never *cough*

But I have informed OH that he's bought me Nanny Oggs cook book and the cheeky so and so told me that was fine and thanks for the new fishing west (or whatever it is) that I bought him reduced from £70 to £20 (even when I don't know I'm buying it I am money saving how good is that!)

I bought myself some perfume yesterday because my daily use stuff has run out and they have stopped making it for the UK market:eek:

So I went looking for something similar and when I found one I liked the assistant said they had a gift pack with body lotion and shower gel for the same price as the perfume on it's own. She asked if I wanted it gift wrapping and I thought why not so I have another present under the tree.

I bought myself a new outfit for my christmas do's over the festive period. Think I might treat myself to a few goodies in the sale as well.

The perfume's not Climat by Lancome by any chance? I have had such problems getting the stuff, eventually tracked it down in Tunisia!

Yes ^_^

I've bought myself a special Christmas top [if it gets here...] some posh glittery eyeshadow, 2 DVD's and some sweets you can't get here from eBay to uh... ease the transition into Christmas

I bought myself a car once - didn't get it Christmas day but on 31st Dec - yes it was very extravagant but no-one else was likely to treat me

great book

I buy myself Terrys chocolate oranges when on offer (as always!!)

I do wrap them up for me from me and put them under the tree, like to Charlotte from Mummy, to Mother from Mum etc....

It drives the kids potty. After doing this for several years, you would have thought that they would have had the hint and buy me one, but no. They still don't!

I got myself a laptop a couple weeks ago. Got fed up of sitting at my desk working on things and had to do research for my dissertation in london this week, so I ordered a ibm thinkpad t41. It's lovely.

I'm kinda classing it as a present tho.

I treated myself to a lovely 'sleep easy' pillow from Culpeppers in their sale in the summer; was about to wrap it last night to stick under the tree when hubby asked me what it was. When I told him, he insisted I give it to toddler who hasn't been sleeping well lately. Well, they do what they say they do, as toddler had 14 hours sleep last night and only just managed to get up before 9 o'clock!!! Back to the drawing board for me, then ... mind you, toddler asleep for that length of time is a present in itself!!
