    I AM DISAPPOINTED!
    I was looking forward to the Unnecessary Challenge "HOORAH" at the knowledge that one of us, during this whole challenge has bought new knickers!

    I've bought loads of underwear lately, I didn't get a hurrah...

    It's a bit of a ludicrous floppy purple one pippo! Need it for Reading next week, I burn quite easily!

    Do not fear - there are still 9 shopping days until hols (but only 6 til we go 'down south' for the wedding) there are so many knickers I could buy in that time:rotfl:

    Found a pack in the drawer that I bought 'for hospital' but didn't use - think I could sell those big granny knicks on ebay?

    PP have a hip hip!! from me, but remember - don't just buy them - tell the world about them!!!

    I'm so sick of not spending too:mad:
    I'm a big lass & an old(er) lass and I've been to the 'shops' today and the current fashions are so me:T textures & crinkles and colours that are so now hippy in my head and I think Boll+++ks why did I choose now not to spend!!

    also wondering - got no unnecessary under my belt - do I/we need to move on??

    I know I had 'puter problems but to find we were on page 3!!:confused:

    Hi Pippo

    I'm a recent convert to hampers so mum is getting a pamper hamper for her birthday at the end of this month and my SIL is getting a pink hamper for hers in sept. Have also got my nieces b'day pressies bought :T

    Have got mum's, Sils xmas pressies bought and have worked out what 2 others will get, hampers again. Also have 2 main pressies and some stocking fillers for DD and DS ;)

    Also have savings this year for pressies and tescos stamps and vouchers so there shouldn't be any unnecessary overspending at xmas. Am also resurrecting some craft/sewing skills and will be making a couple of main and some stocking fillers as well as cards so hopefully an even cheaper xmas :j

    I really love this site although I spend entirely too much time here :rotfl:

    must confess to being too busy stuffing my face with pizza, crying into my pillow and asking my parents if I can move back home.....
