    next sale...new coat and boots for me and my daughter and a few tops for the boys.

    Then I went to boots and got some gift sets and stuff for next years pressies.

    Biggest bargain was the Gap outlet near us where I got 10 pairs of jeans, mostly for the kids and 3 hoodies for just under £100. I did have a couple of email vouchers though.

    Never went near the supermarkets due to parking and trolley rage:rotfl: but I will have to brave it tomorrow. Running out of bread, milk and fruit and stuff

  • I really should not have bothered eating dinner tonight as broke my tooth implant. Was gutted when I felt tooth break but relieved it was not a real one. Luckily it will only need a new porcelain tooth as screw appears intact.
    We joke that my dad always breaks false teeth at Xmas or on holiday but it is now my turn.
    Hope dentists agree that it broke because they didn't fix the screw into the bone evenly but that was probably due to bone graft.
    Will try hard to talk cost down.
    Now feels very strange using my Bzz agent Colgate toothbrush!!!

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    Been to T's it was a little frenzied with pushing,tripping people up, taking out of peoples trollies etc for the tablets:eek: I got one and didn't participate in any of these activities:D

    The finest ham on the bone easy to carve 1.4kg that was £18 then down to £6 scanned at £3 :j:j:j:jsel was still £6.
    HTH
    i had to hunt this post out to let you all know-
    just got back. i got 5. 5 still on shelf. they have a £3 sel now and i could only just see the offer date ends 15th jan. i think this must be a mis-price for this amount of meat so it may end a lot earlier. the bones will make my little russells very happy. then make a soup with the bones when they are finished. ;)
