I'm glad someone wraps their stocking pressies as well;)I'm doing 4 stockings with 10 pressies in each and they all have to be wrapped, that's why my wrapping takes so flipping long:p

Stocking pressies HAVE to be wrapped in our house. I used to try and do each pressie in a different paper, but I've given up on that this year!

You think that's bad???!! When we were little my Mum used to get me and my sister the same or similar pressies in our stockings. So she used to wrap them up AND number them so that we could find the same number and open them together!! Some of you will think she's nuts and she is a bit bless her cotton socks but she's also amazing! :T Our stockings alone would often have over 50 little things in and opening them both together meant the other didn't spoil the surprise! My Mum is ....:A

Dont all rush at once :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I wasnt around for the TCO deal but did see them in Sainsburys for £1 today. Too many mingles in the house for me to be tempted though.

Thanks for the info. So when you tried the sour cream & guacamole last time, they didn't come out as free then?

Apart from Expresses that store is closest to me in miles, but with the traffic it usually takes me about 25 mins+ to get there. Wok1ngham takes about 12 mins, and Brackn3ll North 15ish.

I can also detours on my way home from work at Heathr0w via W1ndsor, Sl0ugh, ashf0rd, or Brackn3ll Mart1ns Her0n. Plus I go down to P00le once a month.

As you can see I get about a bit!!

the sour cream and guacamole werent in store last week so today was first time i tried it,Wok is easier for me too but i tend to go to the other 2 on way from work. prob wont be going to oxford rd because of the bridge being closed..:D

A friend in work - young girl with a 4 yr old son her hubby has lost his job so money was really tight she was upset as all she had left was £9.11 to do her sons stocking which included buying the stocking I told her to give me the £9 and to trust me, I think she thought I was odd but was at the end of her tether, 2 days later i go in with a 99p shop stocking bulging with glitched Cars pencil case - light up yoyo - TCO - loads of pens/pencils - pack illoom balloons - pack bandz -packet water balloons - uno playing cards - box choc fingers - wine gummies -lego clipstrip toy - lion king and cars dvd (DTD) Made me feel all warm and fuzzy I also gave her the £9 back
