The "Cripes, Christmas is almost here" December NSD thread

kerri_gt

Whoops, fell off the NSD wagon today as quickly as I got back on it. Managed to get 3 rolls of xmas paper (for next year) in HB for 50p each, then picked up some yorky puds and some b'day wrapping paper in Mr A, using APG cost me 14p. Stopping at Mr S on the way home for petit pois (forgot those for tomorrow!) and a bunch of xmas flowers to take to my dads grave tomorrow (going to add some holly from our garden too to it) - used £2.50 worth of nectar points and a 1p womble price match, plus found another 23p price match on the way out. Apparently I don't to full price shopping at all anymore

Just some hoovering to do and ironing the xmas tablecloth and I think I am done and ready for some mulled wine - Nargle, Igor gave me his recipie from last year...can't wait to try it :eek::eek:

However, it should mean I don't have time to spend any money today!:D

Arrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhh spoke to soon!:o Went out for a walk earlier and just couldn't resist popping into the Co*op to see if there were any reductions ...... got a fair bit of stuff - would've been £22.70 for £8.09:j (I sorted the freezers this morning & there was room left ...... mainly down to having to chuck stuff when I had to cramb it into one still...:))

Loads of stuff was dated the 27th (so not reduced) so I'll def be popping back on Boxing Day afternoon!;)

Really must get on, still loads to do:eek: - have a fab day tomorrow everyone .... hope Santa is good to you all!:) (at least I'll manage not to spend tomorrow!:o)

cw18 – I’ll be waiting for the whoopsie report tomorrow!!

Given I didn't managed to get out of the house until after 3:30p and the store was closing at 5, there wasn't a lot left

From Mr M I picked up 2 large tubs of organic natural yoghurt (back on my muesli for breakfast from tomorrow), a tub of whipping cream, a pack of mini scotch eggs, a pack of 3 butchery burgers, a pack of best scones (which meant I had to then buy a non-whoopsied tub of clotted cream ), a pack of 3 ciabatta rolls, 2 packs of 4 mini iced ring donuts, and 2 tubs of wensleydale and cranberry sandwich filler - total bill £4.32, of which £2.35 was the Whoopsies

Then I nipped round to A!di - came away with a pack of 2 iced fingers, a pack of 2 sub rolls and a pack of 2 unsmoked gammon steaks (all at 50% off) plus a pack of their fruited scones for finishing off the clotted cream Total bill £1.55, of which £1.22 was the Whoopsies

Nargleblast

6 NSDs in the bag!
