  • May I join you ladies? I haven’t read the whole thread though but love Christmas.

    I’m a stay at home Mum to 2 toddlers (1 and 3) so looking forward to Christmas more than ever this year. I’ve started shopping already as I want to spread the cost as much as anything.

    I’ve noticed matchmakers on offer in Tesco this week so have got a couple of boxes as stocking fillers.

    Dd uses the make revolution from superdrug she has loads of different products from the range.She really likes the foundation (which she doesn't even need)and it actually goes light enough for her skin tone. Its not the cheapest but they are always running offers on it 3 for 2 of free gift with total spend ect
    The MUA stuff is pretty good too esp for the price and its probably one of the best starter options.

    I have a wedding to go to in a couple of weeks and have nothing to wear :eek: Its kinda fancy so totally out of my comfort zone :o finding something suitable that won't break the bank is top of my to do list this week

    heard a rumor that boots are doing a xmas points event around the 16th not sure if its true but worth keeping an eye open
    this year do something that scares you for courage is not the absence of fear just the knowledge that some things are worth the risk

    Thank you aimeemum, beshki and mandco for your help, think I'll buy a few bits and some reusable flannel cloths etc for taking off!

    Oooh mandco I feel your pain, at least a lot of the shops may now have party wear, which can be quite fancy. I quite like a look at TK Maxx's offerings. I hate buying something unless I know I'll wear it more than once! I think Dorothy Perkins has 25% off everything today too?

    Hahaha so sorry heebie! The wonderful spellcheck, why does it think it knows better?

    I used to love Popsy dresses, however, I found they were always too short on me to feel comfortable (I'm 5'7" so hardly above average) and because of this weren't appropriate for work so stopped following them on facebook etc.

    Noodles - the garden centre is Barton Grange near Preston. It's won many awards! Well worth a visit if you're not far from Lancashire.

  • Christmas plans have changed for me this year, my parents have just moved home (down sizing) a lot of work needs doing and the kitchen is dangerously wired. So my gran has decided to do Christmas dinner at hers as long as we can help her. So I’m planning to bring desert with me and my veggie option.

    As I don’t drink alcohol in Sainsbury’s they had bottlgreen new flavoured cordials and fizzy drinks, Raspberry and elderflower is one of the ones I’ve got. They are on offer at the moment at £1.50 a bottle.
