I have a straightforward family to gift for this year. DS wife and 4 children. My budget for gifts is £200 I think it ridiculous how many presents they get so mine are kept to a minimum with monies given at various times during the year
Eg Gd wanted ice cream tonight Local freshly made stuff £10 She is just out of hospital though Plus I promised a small amount for her bank as she was super brave getting her adinods out Baby just started walking. First shoes £35 so it goes on Therefore I don't feel mean not spending a fortune at Christmas

Seren your DD should know you have a restricted income so I would tell her you budget and ask how it should be split. It may be the other grandparents may not be so evenly generous to all 4 children

Sound advice from you and from Emmita.:A

So I'm just going to take the plunge and start as I mean to go on from now this minute.

No as they are much cheaper. If you had 3 gift sets at £8 each and 3 shower gels at £1.50 each, they would take the two cheapest items as the free ones, so £1.50 x 2, so your overall shop would cost more

Good morning all

TM how long is your boy home for ? I am hopping at least a few weeks and that you have managed a wee bit of time off

Well last day of work this week and I so need a break Might all be in my head but loads of folk are irritating me because they are not doing their jobs

Anyone in HR type role but like me without the HR salary ?I had a visit from ACAS our regional rep who offers a face to the role Nice PR exercise

Enjoy your day

I picked these up near the self serve at Tesco Extra yesterday. 5p each so had them all, 2 x trays of 12 plus 4 loose ones (I've opened one to try ). Cashier counted 12 in each tray and then the loose ones and put them through, but when I checked she'd only put 16 through :j Dated 7/11 but that doesn't bother me
