NewThrift - woke up to 4* this morning. It's not far off
Lulu 92 - brilliant thank you!


just poped on to say Talking Ben the app, has a toy out (most probably already knew this) and he is normally £24.99 A has him at £8.99 . i've reserved him - the shop machines where broken today
That is another present ticked off my list :D:D

No problem Lola.

If anyone else wants it I started with this item. Two pairs of owl earrings for 40p inc. postage!

Scroll down to the bit where it shows you what other people bought and there will be loads of other bits and bobs, 9 times out of 10 for less than £1. Repeat the process with every item you click on and you will soon have loads of goodies on their way!

The items are normally coming from China so do bear that in mind when it comes to shipping, although a lot of my stuff took less than 10 days to arrive!

Hope that it helps

On the kindle note... EE are giving their customers codes to get a free Kindle book, choice of 8. My mum and dad received their codes by text, my sister and I got ours by email... So worth a check if your with EE and haven't heard about it yet

But what I'm wondering is don't suppose any of you know if where they say "1 per customer" thats Amazon or EE.... As we have 4 EE accounts, but use 1 Amazon account so can we use all 4? or can we only use 1 ?

Today Flowfy got some more stocking fillers. Went into Home Bargains, got a lovely make your own elastic band plane kit, for £1.99 (DH) and some hello kitty mugs (DD). I too have been going on them amazon sites. one called Yaziland and one called Wombee. needless to say, loads of stuff is winging its way towards me as we speak. I bought a load of miniature boozes, as well, which I am going to use as gifts, in my make your own crackers kit. I also went into a large charity shop today and made a few purchases.....is this naughty, for Christmas presents? Anyway I got a large cut glass vase for my mother, some lovely glass votive holders (put with a couple of yankee votives for lady gifts) loads of gift bags and 2 boxes of Christmas cards. Just for me I got 3 casserole dishes, a Wedgwood mug, 10 shot glasses, 3 cereal bowls, some stationary and a massive chip and dip bowl....guess how much? haha £8 the lot.

This is perfectly acceptable and many on here get gifts from the CS, car boots, table top sales and the like. If the goods are clean and in good condition there is no reason not to :money:

Evening.
Well I went into town today and was very good. Literally only picked up a few things from Argos that DC's had picked out when we were looking online yesterday. What they don't know is they were in the clearance but and the dearest request was £7 :rotfl:
DH's parents and siblings usually tell him to buy the kids a present from them and they give us the money. Limit is £10. We do the same for their kiddies. So we would buy something then hubby drops them off at his mums and the others just pick one to wrap up and give at Xmas. Then we usually buy them a wee small something to add to it. I usually buy pyjamas - which incidentally I've already ordered:rotfl:
It cuts down on buying stuff that won't be used, kids don't like or doubling up on gifts.
So today's buys were for that. I've got most of the kids stuff in. From Argos sales etc throughout the year, the big stuff I'll leave until Oct/November and the it'll just be nick nacks. From the sales etc I've saved about £600 this year:eek::T
Had to get rid of some of the stuff I did buy for them as kids have lost interest in Mosh Monsters, or changed their mind about something else, but I've been able to sell those on thanks to Ebay and Facebook sites. Even made money on some of them :T

My house will be known as the Marvel, Frozen, One Direction. Celtic Football house this year:rotfl:

I called into our local craft shop also as I want to try and make some of the Felt Gingerbread Men that I've seen ideas for on here somewhere but they didn't have a nice colour of brown felt:( Will have to keep an eye out for that.

I'm not going to look at the lovely Amazon things you have all been buying, as I'm trying to de-hoard this house I did end up buying the Mighty icks DVDs though:o:rotfl:
