  • Hello All,

    I know that quite a few of you are Vistaprint fanatics so I wanted to ask some advice. I have found a pen on there (personalised) that I want to buy FIL as part of Xmas present. Now the pen is free at the moment with £2 odd postage. Is this normal? I tried adding more pens but you only seem to get 1 free.. i actually wanted 4. Can you make single orders under the same username? I've checked and there are no codes at the minute :(

    Thanks

Bargain I think :T I'm going to put them in the family Xmas eve hamper (as my children are older 13,17 and 20. Think here choices may be better then the younger Xmas DVDs like Santa Claus etc . However someone will be watching the snowman with me at some point tht day !!! It's tradition :snow_laug:snow_laug

    Me again!

    Just used the Whittards code from Martins email and got my Nans present sorted. Got Best of British preserve set, 80 teabags, shortbread biscuits and then the 4 free mugs. Also treated myself to the Luxury Hot Choc and also a Rocky Road Hot Choc quite dear but going to pop them into the Christmas Eve Hamper. Got free postage too and 15% topcashback.

    Yankee Candle wise my fave so far is the Cranberry and Mandarin one it smells amazing!! Dont like the cupcakey ones as I find them too sickly and cannot stand the minty piney ones either, yuk!

    6 days until Pea arrives now but midwife said the other day "it" was almost fully engaged so might not make it to then!

  • Hi all, I got back from my holiday at the weekend and i've desperately been trying to catch up (over 40 pages!!!!) but alas i've had to give up! What with coming back to work, sorting out the stuff in our new house and organising our wedding which is now less that six months away I just couldn't find the time. For evey page I read i'm sure another 3 appeared! :rotfl:

    Thanks to those who wished me a lovely holiday, welcome to all new people, hugs to anyone who needs them and well done to everyone who's doing well on their Christmas shopping!

    Now it's October I can really feel it coming! I think I saw someone mention that the Boots catalogue comes out today so i'm going to pop in when i'm out to lunch! :D

    The only thing i'm disappointed with at the moment is before I moved house I shopped at a nearby Tesco and they were getting lots of Christmas stuff out, since i've moved the closest supermarket is Asda and they still don't have anything!! They are making an unhappy customer out of me! :(

    Hope everyone is well. x
