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

Was at the one in Perth today.
My friend got fabarooni curtains reduced from over a hundred quid to 25 :j
With just a little persuasion from me :j

Certainly is That's not far from me at all, might have to have a wee peruse sometime!

and .... Home Bargains is next door , Discount UK next to that.... Pets at Home over the road... as well as a whole host of other shops I really shouldn't go near.

I love that place! (Honestly, I do usually just go every couple of months to stock up at PAH and HB but .... hoping I'll feel a bit better tomorrow & can make a wee trip!:)

Thanks Beanie ... may just have to reserve on later on - however, the more I look at it, the more I don't think it'll fit in with everything else in here:( so may have to wait until the Argos ones come down a bit more (typically, they had the one I really wanted with £50 off but it finished Christmas Eve - and didn't have the money then - so I'm maybe better holding off as I'm sure it'll be reduced again at some point ... just missing my sewing machine!:)

Mmmmm maybe Im glad its about a 90 mile round trip for me.

Good evening folks:j,

As predicted, a spend day for me today. Despite being a man, I've never ever had a problem with my shopping mojo:o

NOT an NSD for me....went into town, got a make up set from Boots as needed new eye-make up (and it was half price), sent ebay parcels (have made about 60+ from eBay and Amazon this Xmas period ) got envelopes for the next lot of sales (included in the 60 or so) and got some DVDs, nibbly bits, a new stick blender.

And we went shopping and spent a LOT - got spices and oil and noodles and sorted the menu so there's some easy meals for when I don't want to cook, veggie meals for the virtuous days and some stuff for the slow cooker - soup and stew here we come!

Ooh if you are do you fancy meeting up for a coffee? I can always find an excuse to visit the shops

Hooray!
Managed a sneaky nsd today taking me to #7.
Only because I was too hungover this morning to leave the house apart from the nursery run.

BDINI - I know I haven't actually joined "properly" this month but I've made my target of 20 - I've got 22 so far - any chance of a prize (or is that being really cheeky:o:o:o)

Hope you had a lovely Christmas

Not cheeky at all Spoon, wouldn't be an NSD challenge, without you having a prize on the front page!!!!

I've took the liberty of increasing your target once you hit 20, so you now have 2 prizes.... & if you sneak another one in before the end of the month, you might even get 3!!!!

Christmas was lovely thanks, i just can't believe how quickly it all seems to be over these days!
Hope yours was fab too? x

Yup, that would be great!:D (Can only think of Sainsbob's, McD's or Ikea out there atm but will have a think)

I may not last long but could certainly do with getting out for a wee while having spent the best part of the last couple of days in bed ......and I won't feel guilty about the Lurgi as I know you've already got (a version of) it

Sure I'll be OK but can I PM you in the morning (just in case.....)?

Sounds good Sainsbugs might be the best plan - too many weans in Ikea :rotfl::rotfl:
