  • My DH literally only buys my present and even then I have to gently point in the right direction. Well done Ed

    Hey HDK - sounds like our DH's are similar in that respect!

    My OH's Christmas shopping (just for me) is all from Play.com - luckily you can buy more than DVDs and games on there now which is a relief when I open my Christmas presents :D

    I'm not sure he knows there are other websites available :D

    With some of the big online retailers, there may as well not be! Amazon, I'm looking at you :D Bought sister's presents this morning (also from Amazon).

    Absolutely nackered today - planning on keeping my head down - leaving early and enjoying as stress free a weekend as possible.

    That said, I do need to update our spreadsheet book for next year :)

    Oops - I just realised that I put my little update this morning on your thread instead of my own! Sorry for that Ed... I've deleted it. Silly me - I bet you wondered what the heck I was doing!!

    Sold a book on Green Metropolis, packaged up to post in the morning.

    Now to finish my coffee, do the dishes and start the spreadsheets :)

    Got a nice big bottle of Belgian beer on offer in Tesco, that's the evening sorted!

    Popped in to Aldi on the way home as well, got a big butternut squash, vine tomatoes, mushrooms and a bag of mixed peppers for 69p each. I think we still have onions and garlic in the cupboard, so that should do us for a few days.

    Oh the fun! ;)

    Evening Ed :)

    I've just caught up on your diary as I'm behind this week due to working away for a few days. Nice one on the 'cashback save'.

    Have a good weekend and enjoy your Belgian beer! :beer:

    BW :)
  • OOOOhh Ed, my dream man. Buying presents, shopping on the way home.......Even your ingredients sound exotic
