    I store all my Christmas related things in my office. In the run up to our wedding it was known affectionately as the wedding room. Now it's known as my Christmas grotto. (I don't have any children). God knows what I'll do after Christmas!!

    I am still at a complete loss as to what to get hubby from the baby- we have agreed that we are going to spend Christmas day in pjs watching dvds and he has new slippers, dressing gown and all that and will most likely get me some pjs off ebay if possible. But I wanted to get something with Daddy on but not a mug or a photo frame and im at a complete loss. Any suggestions? (£5 budget)

    I bough this from ebay, under £5 delivered think it was £4.50 for fathers day and dressed him in it as a surprise for Daddy when he changed his nappy. x

    Got this in Sainsbury's £3.50 (husband holding it just so you know for scale, I haven't got hairy hands :rotfl:)

    It has a slide and a pin for hair or as a brooch and the middle bit is very sparkly.

    They also had some on alice bands but I forgot to check the price of these.
  • Evening all

    I was in HomeBargains this evening looking for a Christmas mug I thought I'd seen one of you bad influences post previously, but from a quick review of the last week's posts I can only assume I imagined it! So rather disappointed I couldn't get hold of an imaginary mug, but whilst there I did see this which made me think of Chirpychick

    It was the only one of that style but similar products were £1.99.

    I shall continue on my quest for imaginary Christmas mugs! :xmassign:

    Ah yes they did indeed have those and they are very cute. Unfortunately the imaginary ones are shaped like Father Christmas's face and are only 29p! :rotfl:
