Countdown to Freedom

Hi all, I didn't get there last night either so will post details when I get back:D

Edied to add: I will never get a job there. Didn't stop from 10 am until 5pm.

However I may not have helped grow Costco sales but I have drunk 1/2 bottle of white wine so feeling very relaxed

Goodness, my Friday night post was a bit weird, that's what 1/2 bottle of fizz does to me these days.

Loads of clothes bought for relative yesterday and off for some trying on today, before I do stock rotation and return them to a different branch

Brisket of beef is in the slow cooker so dinner will be ready when we get home.

We did a huge grocery shop yesterday, close to £100 :eek::eek: however Mr T did remind me that it contained 3 gifts which DD wanted me to buy.

No exciting news to report but life is back to normal which is a blessing.

Glad life is getting back to normal Tilly and you can look forward to :xmastree: (have missed your "how many sleeps" update)

contemplating joining costco but wondering if would save the £30 back as compared to say aldi/lidl etc... which dont cost to joint. What do people reckon?....

Tilly, I spent £110 in the supermarkets yesterday :eek: Am I still allowed in here?

In my defence that does include about £15 of Xmas gifts - but I am going to need to visit Herr A today for some bread and veg

Ah yes, police raids, feast eating dogs, 1p overpayments. Methinks your 'normal' is differently located to ours :rotfl:.

You forgot the end of the world stock piling in the garage, the conference/ironing calls and her secret MSE DD agent :rotfl::rotfl:

Hi Katsu, sounds like we both had a spendy grocery weekend :eek: Let's keep it secret, no one will have noticed :rotfl::rotfl:

Evening GG, maybe normal is a bit odd in the Tilly household :rotfl:

Froggy, what's my secret MSE DD agent? I think I've spent too much time in the car today, my brain may be fried...........

Relative looked at clothes and I only have 80% to take back, which is amazing as I thought I may end up taking them all back

Watched a Christmas film with DD, poor DS went to bed as he is feeling under the weather and DH has been making ice creams to freeze for Xmas. What a star :xmastree:

Lodger switcheroony, otherwise known as OP, to do in the morning. I still haven't been to C@stco and given how much we've spent this week, I daren't even put a toe through the door. I cannot afford Costco-itis this week.

:xmassign:16 sleeps :xmassign:

TYO, I do bulk buy probably once a quarter from C@stco, but I could exploit the offers more than I do. As I shop in L!dl or Ald! pretty much the rest of the time - I fell out with Mr T, Mr A during this year - I think I do save enough to cover the cost, however the biggest benefit is the mega batch cooking. When Mr T and I are on a cooking roll, we do tend to go a little mad :rotfl:

Looking forward to work this week and only 10 working days to go :T

Have a great week, Tilly x x x

Hi Radish, you've just reminded me I'm taking a day off this week :rotfl: so 9 work days to go.

Enjoy your day off :T
