    I do that. The only problem I have is that I hide them so well that even I can't find them!!


    Hi Poppy, I do that too. Bought DH a watch 2 years ago and still haven't found it. Also lost 2 cd;s that I bought about 18 months ago.

    I do the same with birthday cards. Buy a few in advance and forget where I put them and have to go and get some more.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    CW thats what I was thinking about yesterday need to start making a list who I have got what for as got things all over the place that you collect over the year on good offers.

    Friends birthday in Oct thought I didn't have anything & as just out of hosp hadn't been shopping so had some bodyshop bits got on glitch went for lunch during lunch her jewellery caught my eye then remembered I had bought her a necklace in the sale around June time so she ended up with double prezzies :rotfl:


    I bet your friend just loves you. Double pressies, wow.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I like to put my xmas pressies in bags as I hate wrapping them.

    Trouble is I have run out of bags and remember seeing some cheap somewhere, but can't for the life of me remember where.

    Anyone seen cheap gift bags anywhere.

    Mr A has Smartprice bottle bags and med size gift bags for 19p each. They are red with white christmas trees on. Used some last year (they had stars on) and were perfectly fine assuming they were the right size.

    Card Factory usually have some cheap offers too if you need larger bags.
