Have considered it but not had much chance to look round the shops with the boys being off school and we just have no storage space to keep things. I did overbuy on the wrapping paper & cards this year when it was being sold just before Xmas which I will put under DS2s bed with the decs.

This is a first for me. I bought all cards for next christmas and 2 presents boots and sainsburys sales. DD still wants a nintendo DS so I know how much I need to save and hopfully it will be cheaper this year.

i have bought cards paper and tags, a few toiletries reduced in boots and today i got a 6 foot tree reduced in tesco from £49.99 to £2.75 coz it was the one on display in the store. mind you it doesn't go back in the box but i don't care for that price!!
