    pinksteps congratulations

    pinknfluffy love the wrap must take ages to do

    managed to do a fair bit today picked up some presents in argos all on offer and got a gift card to spend on something else.
    picked up the cellophane from lidl thanks for the heads up chrissyg hardly any left and only had clear/red stars so got one of each.
    finally collected my debs order gift set with freebie off grabbit freebie was 7 mini products 4 perfume, lipstick and something else so they will go in dd advent calendar.
    picked up the sain flip magazine gift/food guide a few recipes I want try the mincemeat brownie tart looks good and they are doing mince pie & gingerbread ice creams so might have to try them too.
    *Nectar double up starts tommorrow* hoping to get ds the game he has asked for that's his main present sorted if they have it

    need to dig out the xmas wrap stash and see if I need anything else.only thing I can think of is gift bags as alot of the kids present this yr are small so putting them in bags makes it look like there is more under the tree without spending extra.

    *Lidl are meant to be doing the Dark choc bars 1/2 price 17p this weekend*
    this year do something that scares you for courage is not the absence of fear just the knowledge that some things are worth the risk

    Evening lovelies!

    of the people who bought these bags did they arrive in speedy time and are they a good size?
  • Just had to pop in to say congratulations to Pinksteps!
    A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

    They took a couple of weeks to come and are a reasonable size enough for a drink /sandwich etc.
