*prods Mr My3Girls for not joining in*

I popped into Tesco in town to see if I could find the Cathedral cheese glitch or Christmas mini mallows (none in stock) and spotted the Cadbury Fabulous Fingers for £1 half price? don't know if they would be good for Snowman Soup as from what the kids told me they are bigger better fingers?! Got some to put away for Christmas but may help with store cupboards or hampers

Popped into HOF to see if the Christmassy Yankee candles were in, which they werent grr! they did have Christmas Cupcake votices reduced to 88p, didnt have change with me and didnt want to put 88p on a card!

M&S have all the candles and some gifts in, along with some decs, the Mandarin Chrsitmas Spice (think it's called that, the red one anyway!) is especially lovely this year, treated myself to the little tin

I usually get the kids new tops to wear on Christmas day, they usually get a nice shirt/dress etc to wear for when we go out or visiting over Christmas, this year DS has a really nice Boden top (sale) and DS got dresses and stuff in the States from Forever 21 which is soooo cheap thank the lord something is!) which she can wear with leggings and boots etc

re the chocolate hamper, I love the Chocomania range in Body Shop, always worth checking if there is a glitch as there usually is! I know I shouldnt post codes but LOVE at checkout giving free p+p and 35% off inline orders for one week starting today

Thanks msgigglewick.

I haven't actually looked deeply inside some of my saved links, as my 2 are a little too old now.:(

Have saved it as a separate link for BIG LINK post next year.

poppygirl - I personally think you should get a christmas jumper from primark as its going to be cold! Dont want to cover up your xmas jammies in a coat now do you! :-D

More shopping for me this morning, got a lovely dog tin from sainsburys full of dog shaped biscuits. Reduced from 10.00 to 5.00! My moms a scottie dog fan so i got her the black :-)
Also got some candy canes for my snowman soups as i wanted more traditional ones & dont think adults would appreciate Mario ones from B & M!

Hope everyone is well xxxx

I wouldn't have paid the £10.00 either, I know for a fact she will force everyone else to eat the biscuits so she can use it as another 'junk tin' :mad: but it keeps her happy..

Hi all,

Hamper help please

I would like to make a chocolate hamper. She will also get a mini pot of gold with a scratch card and a £10 new look voucher inside it.

Can you think of other cheap chocolate related things (taste, smell or colour) apart from the below which I could add in – (also please let me know which shops might have them)? I saw some chocolate smelling bath and crèmes in superdrug but they where £3 each and that would have blown my budget.

Superdrug choc face mask
Hot chocolate
Eating chocolate
Chocolate cookies
Chocolate coloured flannel
and a couple of books for reading whilst eating all that chocolate
:xmassmile

Was beat to what I was going to say !! Also quality save had a few chocolate items like 2 bath things together for 3.00 they were in like milk cartons but were deffinatly chocolate!!

I know somebody was asking about dressing up to pick up there brother (sorry just caught up on 8 pages can't remember who it was) I'd stick to pjs and an Xmas jumper && either a Xmas headband or Santa hat !!

Somebody else asked if anybody has bew outfit for Xmas!! I do I get a new outfit every year used to be my mum who bought it but now I do I also get one for Boxing Day! This is because we see family on both days!! I really want some nice jeans and a thick cardi for Xmas day && I might get an Xmas jumper too!!
