    I'm the same Jane, except I don't have kids but I've bought for my 2 nephews, Mr M's 3 nieces, nephew and surprise baby en route lol, my friend's 6 kids/2 kids/1 kid, 4 kids for post pals, a couple of kids pressies for local charity .... I love buying kids stuff but doesn't look like I'll be having any little Melvis' to buy for so I just buy for others but I too can't stop lol xx

    Jane if you haven't spent more than you can afford then no worries. Little ones always get lots when they are so young. They soon grow up and their taste gets more expensive :D

    I am like you though Melvis. No kids of my own so end up spoiling everyone elses. One day hopefully have my own as Christmas isnt quite the same when you are grown up :D

    Been to pics to watch Hugo and we had a pizza hut meal ( first time I've been there with kids :o).

    I think buying for the kds is exciting Jane :) I've been lucky enough to win lots of pressies too. I also got the pantenne shampoo, which I always use.

    Just chilling on the iPad now but will have to go on slow pc as it won't let me send parcels on fb comp!
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    No idea whats in the Spa Kit - it doesn't say!

    It is nice and easy when they are small Jane. DD is getting a lot of my wins for Xmas surprises, only got earphones for the boys that I won! (Won 3 pairs of earphones this year!!!) DS1 is an accountant in Bermuda earning more than most of us can only dream of so he is really difficult to buy for.
