    Shame got to pay postage :( love these bags

    Seasalt jute Cristmas bag £1.50
    http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/seasalt-jute-cristmas-bag-1-50-2381109

    Ideal for putting Christmas presents in

    I saw a lady at the station yesterday and I was admiring her shopper bag and it was one she had got in the Kath kids ton sale for £3.50 :eek:
    Needless to say a lot of time was wasted last night drooling over the cute things in the sale on their website and wishing I had more presents to buy - no cheap shoppers though.

    Shopping bag envy - my new affliction

    When i was in Singapore and Hong Kong the percent of people had masks

    on as they were walking about because of the smell of petrol fumes etc

    but if you went to the old markets they didnt wear masks and were still selling animals alive such as

    chicken ducks frogs fish rabbits and another little furry thing not quite

    sure what that was could have been a tash :)

    Just done my first attempt at getting a free airport lounge via the Holiday Extras guarantee (read a thread on the dibb about it!).

    Paid £72 via HE, found it for £60 on another website, and as they guarantee to give it to you for free if you find it cheaper elsewhere hopefully it will work out! If not I will be cancelling the lounge at £72! :D

    Thanks, had a look too and looks like a saving of £100 for the family summer holiday. Mucho Gracias, we're off to cuba!:D

    OMG - better warn youngest son to be mindfull of being in contact with anyone who has come through HK airport or been on hols recently - he lives and works in HK. At the mo I know he is doing a sea kayaking course out in the midst of no where - it when he get back from exped and goes into the city shopping that you possibly stand more chance of picking something up ...
