They are only to have in for guests as I do not drink.

I haven't tried any of them elaine but I'm sure they'll be half decent. Unless you are buying for a connoisseur, I don't think it will matter

afternoon all

On both of our Sparks cards we have hot chocolate in the cafe for £1 and I'd come to the conclusion that is just straight forward standard medium hot chocolate.
This afternoon we went to the cafe and I ordered 2 medium luxury hot chocolates (cream and marshmallows) thinking the plain ones would be better used when we go in the morning. I gave my sparks as normal.
The till automatically deducted the discount for both drinks so £5.70 down to just £2 and I used the credit note that expires in December that I've been whittling down.

Also in Ikea I got one of the calenders but I am not sure how to open it without damaging it as we want to give it someone as a gift ...
It has a voucher inside, desperate to know what it is ...
But we were given a £5 voucher at the till which seems to have no minimum spend to be used in December and January
Ikea cafe have a weekday afternoon offer - £1.50 for a hot drink and cake - might depend on which one you are visiting. Useful if you dont have the £1 sparks Marks hot chocolate offer
I had a childrens meal - 4 meatballs, chips and an orange for £2.50 - not really a red meat eater so that was plenty for me - OK I had been drinking hot chocolate and cream in Marks firstly

Well I have my list ready for tomorrow for sainsburys.

I am getting myself a jumper, 2 cd, a Xmas salt and pepper set and a bag.

OH a dressing gown, some CDs and some vinyl records (we hid these behind something).

DD is getting a CD, Sims vampire game (hope they have this as forgot to check), a jacket, some leggings and maybe a bag.

I am also getting a dressing gown, a couple of books, slippers, Xmas jumper and a few gifts for other people. I will be checking the perfume and the wine out as well.

I intend being outside for 7am when they open. I hope there will not be too much of a queue. This will almost finish my shopping for everyone except DD as we still need her list. Think I will need a big trolley and to go around twice as have mine & OHs vouchers to spend. I am exhausted already just thinking about it.

I am also picking DD up after work for her to do a bit of shopping as well.

I'm planning to go to S after work tomorrow night but I'm not sure whether it will be a wasted trip. I'm thinking that early morning would be best but I don't really want to wait until next Saturday and I haven't any time to take off work:o

I'm thinking some of the popular sizes of dressing gowns etc might have sold out:o

Did I read somewhere you can get a free hot drink with the Ikea Family card each time you go in?
