Have a lovely Christmas!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0

Managed to declutter 5 bags of goodies that I had stocked up from Claires Accessories. They always had really good sales over the years so in amongst the absolute bargains I already gave to the kids in our family I managed to create a little hoard.
My pal has 2 daughters and my neighbour has 3 so bagged up all the remaining goodies which our kids are all too big for and told them to add that to their Christmas pressies - they were both thrilled and I am equally as happy to have gotten some space back.
