    Afternoon just popped in to say hope everyone had a nice time over the Christmas period .I left my lappy at home when I stayed with Lala for 4days so just having a quick catchup and would like to say thankyou to davemorton for a nice new thread.:T
    I am now off to sort out all my lovely pressies and sale bargains I purchased as I like to keep busy when I return home after spending time with Lala the family as it feels very lonely and it is my darling Dh's Birthday tomorrow which always makes me sad .
    Hugs to everyone .

    Oh nanny sorry to hear this. Christmas always brings loss into sharp focus.

    Can you keep busy tomorrow to make the hours pass a little more quickly?

    Afternoon all.
    Hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and are not suffering the after effects too much!;)
    Back to normal for us now, but I admit to not having set foot inside a shop of any description since the day before Xmas eve.
    No trawling the sales in town or even on line come to that. :o
    Have debated going out in the evening for whoopsies but just cant work up any enthusiasm for more food!!
    Got the last of the turkey in the slow cooker in a cream sauce and will have that tonight in a pie with home made chips.....and I bet I enjoy it that way the best :D

    Is there anything worth getting in Tesco at the moment. Bearing in mind it involves a 30 odd mile round trip?
    Everyone seems to be saying that the sales are pretty dire this year so didn't know whether the best bargains will be found towards the end rather than the beginning of them.

    I need someone to spur me into action. :D


    Hi purdy
    I've wasted so much time and petrol this last week chasing non existent whoopsies. Think the stores around me mut have got their stock control right this year:o:)

    My Fave glitch of the year was the BS at 5.00/5.30am. It was so funny chatting to the Elite at 5.00am knowing you were'nt the only other nutter that had set your alarm that early to catch a glitch(And it made it even sweeter when the refunds came for the LYB cards;)) Mind you the APG cleaning stuff was a winner;)and so was the £1 cheese, then again I did love the 1p lamb aeros:TDishwasher tabs were pretty good, as still are the 1p Monster munch.Loved the 4p socks and sunglasses and the "free" Bavaria.Had to be brave with the Denby DTD dinner sets;) and also liked the car coupons;) Liked the £20 Dwell vouchers and loved the Special K FB coupons. All in all far too many to mention, but rounded off nicely with the Glam BS cards and a damn good Elite year:T:T:T:T:beer:

    And (On a roll now;)) Loved the glitch were you got 500 Boots points for every £1.67 spray you bought if you could find the reduced ones. So got £170 in one day on my card:o:oWhich covered a lot of Xmas pressies:T:T
    Beware!!!! Glitching is addictive:rotfl:
