Then I put them under the tree, they are the first ones! I WIN!!! hehe. Just have cards to write now, mum's presents to wrap, and any others that are still filtering through from online.

Another nsd for me today which I am really pleased about. Tomorrow is going to be a biggie though - I have to buy a present for secret santa, it's dd's gymnastics night, and I need to pay a friend who is making a big batch of lovely Rocky Road chocs for my sister who is due to give birth any day now.
Expected spend tomorrow
£15 - rocky road (oh yes, there's lots of it and it's very nice and luxurious)
£3-50 gymnastics
£2-81 remaining secret santa budget
Ouch, still have my Christmas do Friday as well.

Darn it!!! Have run out of milk and will need some for my coffee addiction...no NSD for me, although it will be as far as the challenge is concerned at least!

I've been having fun today on the Weight Watchers site - am making the most of my bargainous subscription! Have got my meal plan done outside of WW up to end of Feb (OCD I remind you...!) but have been putting the recipes in and seeing how I can reduce the calories, or maybe get one more portion out and have more veg and then does it work out cheaper because I have to factor in that salad is expensive but I love it! Oh the fun! And I'm being serious!!!
