    Late to the party again I know. Cathedral Citys showing £2 on a.com - has it always been that way?

    It's possible and cheap to do by yourself. About £20 for a kit from WH Smith. it's also possible to use online templates, just make sure they legally cover your circumstances. I have no doubt at all you have above and beyond the intelligence required to complete one ;)
    if people prefer a solicitor, it would cost about £200 ish (don't quote me on this, it's dependant on circumstances) for a basic double will.

    If you are legally married then you haven't much to worry about as long as you trust Mrs Anon to carry out your wishes and don't expect her to go shopping every day to replenish the stash empire you have built :p:p

    :D

    I think supermarkets would be safer if Mrs Anon was in charge of shopping - I am training her up and she does prompt me to check what is glitching and advise on filler stocks (I am not letting her go shopping with me, you have to draw the line somewhere :eek:) but I fear she would be more of a muggle in a muddle unless she had strict lists. Little Anons could potentially assist as they are glitchers in training. That said, she would be safe for many essentials for "a while" as we have "a few" of many items ;).

    Lots of 10p Christmas stuff in B&M clearance.
    Baubles, napkins, cards, stocking filler stuff/junk like posing pouches, toilet golf, bath football, plus others......


    Also the large Ronnie Reindeer Thornton's chocolate for £1.


    HTH

    You're outdoing me again:T:T. I'll have a look at what information I got from M yesterday. If an item is better than, or matches, those prices, then it will go onto the list, if not then I'll forget about it.:cool: I doubt they will be as good as B&M. Just having a look at one now... Thornton's Snowman Gift Pack 245g, £1:eek::eek:. That's v.expensive price - it's a triple piece set but I don't think it's a big one! Let me know if that is better than the weight on the B&M one (I doubt it) and, if it is, I'll put it onto the list. I ought to do a B&M list:rotfl:. Really, in the light of 300g Toblerones at 75p in the middle of last year, I should not be considering £1 prices for much lower weight like that!

    I think Mrs Anon is probably a saint ;):D and I'm sure you know it.

    I've been having a mass de-clutter....of everything! And it's made me very aware of what anyone clearing my stuff out might think of me in that event :o

    I told a good friend lately I have an old die hard habit of keeping the dregs of the foundation I wear :o it goes back to my skint student days when I'd save the dregs in case I ran out of make up and would have to break into the packaging to swipe the dregs out :o that 'should' never happen now and hasn't for years but I still never throw away the dregs. I've had to lately to clear them out. I won't say how many finished foundations I'd kept 'just in case' but it was a lot :o

    Is £7.50 for an Ironing Board a good price? I note you can get used ones cheaper than that but prices I've seen online for new seem to be dearer. I can't remember how much I paid for my reduced price ironing board a few years ago. If it is a good price, then there may be some Beldray Ironing Boards at that price each in M. (I say 'may be' as you might find they are not in your M store.) I found several in stock in one M yesterday though. 110cm x 113cm. I noticed, separately, that the Beldray Mop Buckets have gone down (were £1.50 last week, £1.00 yesterday) so, maybe, the Ironing Board needs to be waited on. Then again, they may all disappear from your M before then.

    he always brings a smile to my face ...though i think your daughter

    school bag ...I am away to bed now so you take care :)

    The rest of the kids are ok too perky and they love DS2 enough that they know he gets slightly more attention but they don't mind that. He brightens their lives as well.

    Yes, I transferred £1500 to DD bank account to buy a £15 school bag because I forgot the decimal point :eek: :rotfl::rotfl:

    Sleep well. You made me smile today :)

    Talking about the rice cakes earlier, that were the only item actually needed, I understand what was being said.

    I bought several shops with the Finish dw tablets and the (relatively expensive:D:() 10p sweets last week. I realised, about two days later, that I'd bought nothing that we actually needed:rotfl:. So, I had to go and do some essential items shopping. Of course, the DW tablets will be needed in due course and then I will be very thankful that I got them at an excellent price (I do have a dishwasher but wasn't 'out' of them just yet). That's the 'trouble' with this money-saving lark - sometimes you end up buying nothing:rotfl:!
