    My little excursion was VERY productive.

    £5 for wine and cheese hamper boxes. Got 2

    Lots of brandy butter and toffee cream :T

    3 very fancy cheeses reduced to 10p each
    Bog standard cheddars 10p (will give these to my Mum. I like a lot of flavour in mine!)

    A couple of whoopsies 90% off. Literally only 2 though, cooked meat and a finest meal for 2.

    A few 1p jar grippers to pass on to parents, in laws and grandparents.

    I think that was it. Very happy with my little trip.

    Only thing I actually lack a stock of prior to this evening was cheese.

    I'm well chuffed :)

    The 'Who We Are' List

    altojack - Female - over 21 - Stowmarket Suffolk

    Thought it was about time I joined the list too lol

    I'm going off topic now but feel I want to share my good fortune. I haven't seen my grandchildren for about 18

    months due to DS leaving his wife. I am now able to see the children and am going tomorrow with DH for our

    first visit. I've been sitting around with a grin on my face and feeling so excited and yet weepy. Does that make sense?


    Perfect sense - I have grandchildren and it would break my heart if I couldn't see them. Have a lovely day tomorrow :)

    How much is it costing her to make? etc :)

    I assume the cake is for a friend or a work colleague- she is brill - she normally does real novelty stuff.
