Have seen this thread floating about , but never posted on it.

I am a real saddo when it comes to Christmas presents. Most of mine are got in January. But that's not really the sad bit.

The sad bit is my Christmas Present phone app. It has pictures of everyone I buy for. Under their picture are further pictures of the presents I have got them. It tells me where I bought them, how much they cost, if they're wrapped.
It has a budget planner.There are different categories,Family, Freinds, Colleagues etc.
It tells me what I got people last year, so I don't repeat gifts.

Best of all, it needs a code to open :j so no prying eyes

I actually think I would cry if I lost my list.:o

God god - now that's organised - very impressed x

It's called Better Christmas . (Andrew Grant)

The picture is of Santa holding a yellow note pad.

It also lists all the shops you need to go to and have been to. You can enter a present you haven't got yet. Then when you go shopping, you can go into the store list, and it will tell you what you need to get in each shop.

Made my first stocking today... Took 6 hours as I don't own a sewing machine (If the photo works this is what it looks like...)

My DH just purchased a tin of Quality Street for me awww! But he said that he hunted the whole shop looking for the full size tin! ROFL.
He was so confused bless him.
He doesn't eat them as some contain nuts so he just steers clear incase he eats a wrong one by accident so hasn't really paid attention for years at the size of the tin and I had to say I was shocked too, it's like half the size they used to be.
I wonder if anyone knows how many grams used to be in them? This one 825g including wraps. £6 in Morrisons (cheaper than driving to asda and paying parking).

We never usually buy tins of chocolates but he felt bad for me as I had a bad day bless him.

p.s when i opened the tin it smelt like christmas

Will look later a work. I am sure there is an old tin lurking about as a spare biscuit tin :rotfl: Like the biscuits last long enough to need a spare tin.

Thank You

Don't laugh but I have an app for that :rotfl:

It's called Netrobe.:o

It doesn't tell me where I have put them. But my bedroom is in the loft, all my clothes are in deep bookcases going round all the walls. So I can see them.
It sounds weird but my dd and her friends think it looks like a Superdry Shop.
