Beat you too that one as I was out on Thurs and bought my first Xmas gift for next year :rotfl:

:eek::rotfl:just about fainting at the thought of doing Christmas shopping already!

Rising - boots for walking maisie will be an investment - I might sound old saying this but you only get one pair of feet and whilst i don't mind donning a pair of impractical killer heels for a couple of hours on a night out, I would never 'scrimp' on activity shoes. Also means you're feet will be nice and toasty while you build your strength back up. x

Ohhh the days of high heels are long gone here I'm afraid:( - have a wardrobe full of shoes I can't (and unlikely to ever) wear anymore ..... did try to throw some out but .... just can't bring myself to do it!:o

Have ordered the lovely fleece lined ones so fingers crossed they fit OK - not really into buying shoes online as I have such difficulty finding ones that a) fit and b) don't hurt the gammy foot - but not really much option atm

hope you got your crumpets ok - I must admit there is one brand I deff think are better than all the rest (thank fully my A$da do a 9 pack for £1) - although if they don't have them i revert back to SP ones - it's all or nothing with me :rotfl:

Ohhhh def a one brand crumpet woman here ..... by any chance do they begin with a W - quite like the 9 for £1 packs here but it leaves a rather lonely one!

I definitely need new glasses.... I thought you were going out to buy some new boots for Maisie on first reading :rotfl::rotfl:

:rotfl:I do actually have doggy boots :rotfl: - they're only used if they cut a paw to keep it dry / clean or if the weather's awful & there's loads of salt on the roads / pavements as this really wreaks their feet

i have cleared out a lot of my shoes over the past couple of years, truth is we just don't go out as much as we used to so no point in hanging onto things I'll never wear again.

Yep, I am a W crumpet lady myself - then are deff the best (toasty on the outside, still fluffy in the middle) - although I do know what you mean about the one that gets left :rotfl:

Ahhh, to Maisie's boots - no chance I'd ever get anything like that on my kit :eek:


I just popped on to ask you guys something. I have some pet food which I got a while back but my mog isn't overly keen on it and it will take her forever to work through what we have so i was wondering about selling some off and putting the £ to other food for her. I recall on one thread someone sold some pet food but I can't for the life of me remember how they did it? Was it any of you guys?

Afternoon all, it's a bit wet and grim out there, but did spend I pleasant morning with the dog (drowned rat impression). Was going to call into shop on way back for bread but remembered have some in freezer.

Freeby, don't know if you normally do this or if you have time but I wondered if we could do a final count, how many NSD we achieved between us for December, just thought it might be fun ?

Have nice weekend all.

No we don't do it but it seems like a good idea. :A It shouldn't be too much of a problem or take too much time

What does everyone else think? Would you like to see a total NSDs collected?

Not an NSD today as i have been buying stuff for next christmas.

:eek::eek::eek::eek: ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! you and Kerri gt :eek::eek::eek: i am hoping christmas will disappear before we get there..

rising - shame about those crumpets, that is complete rubbish. and yeah i would invest in those walking boots, if it means you will walk her for longer and it will help you get out the house by supporting your legs and keeping them warm then yeah, if not then dont bother.

the earrings - yeah i havent worn earrings for 2 years because i started becoming really allergic to nickel and so i now have to wear pure metals... trust my ears as i want to become debt free to now only want gold and silver.... *mutters* :mad:. lol. find a pair you want to wear and maybe tie your hair in a pony tail and go admire yourself in the mirror

Citizen - those earrings are a total bargain - well done & (as my dad would say) 'wish you well to wear them' xx

HOW is it nearly 2013 already? Actually i'm not a fan of new year - hate being felt forced that I must be out having a great time, paying to get into places you'd normally go in free (and spend money in - thus keeping them in business) any other day of the year, so many people spending yet more money they can ill afford to and then spending the next few months struggling to pay it off. Whoops...sorry...soap box away and exit stage left....

thank you! very pleased with myself put them straight in and havent taken them out since

i am not a fan of new years either, but then i am not a fan of people and new year means lots of people i dont know sweating near me :rotfl: but this year is different so excited for the next year to being debt free etc. but still i will be spending in indoors with a couple of bottles of champagne with my OH toasting to hopefully the best year of our lives yet. dont worry we shall toast to all of MSEers too.

freeby and kerri - freaking love a good SPREADSHEET! mmmmmm! cant wait to update mine! or rather update a few! i will be doing a few today.

sazzie23 - yes definitely addicted! really changed the way i see my spending, i was one for treats here and there, the odd quid really adding up see you in january!
