Thanks for the shiny new thread DM
So sorry about your friend HG. We have a friend whose dad died from MND, quite honestly you would not put an animal through that
Bumped into my BF twice in town this morning, we are hoping to swap the meet up from Thursday to Wednesday so we can still do it legally.
Also had to pick up more food for Castor and Pollux, got some off Amazon to try out on them and they do not like it so trying mixing it in with their normal food. Stocked up for the next three months or so now anyway, it keeps going out of stock in our local Wilko!
What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare
Can anyone help with this please. I sold a jigsaw on Facebook and the girl has put the money in my bank etc and sent me her address BUT I can't find her messages now . It's never happened before and I haven t deleted it as I don't k ow how lol. She ll think I'm trying to cheat her if I do nt get her messages back.
Josie... I am notorious for weird (and sometimes generous) presents... every Christmas the kids would get some fruit and veg wrapped up... the weirder the better... so a vacuum is pretty good for me!
We have just the one DS and his family, I realised a while ago that I/we are over generous!! Had to explain to GDs that their other Granny has other people to buy for (I actually think she is tight fisted). I work on the premise that if they want it and I can afford it, they get it, plus, many random elite bargains!
Lady I know still wraps her self in knots making sure that that presents are equal money wise!
I've agreed to work on my days off coz so one in my dept is off due to hubby having covid. I'm dead already. Hoping it helps with laptop costs!
Called at T on way home as I went not long after the kids and figured wouldn't have to queue. No queues so that was good. Used the scanner to be quicker as till queues aren't good. 1 store no Halloween stuff at all. Got various cashback, went to bigger one they had 1 Halloween outfit, fortunately in dd2 size and was 4p. Got home and presented it with the £12 tag on. Dd1 wanted to know what she had, I said I would give her the same money I spent on it lol was not impressed with 4p.
Got various other cashback they didn't have at other one.
Nipped in M&S no Halloween and no baked apple yog.
Nearly got all sme for this month.
Ordered Papier stuff, so thank you for the referral cash! It doesn't tell me who it was so thank you! That's both kids sorted now!
Oh and used last money off coupon on T.
My n3ctar points from cc are due to go on on 7th I think and was a big spend month lol.
Only connect and Cheshire housewife night! Lunches and my brekkie made for tomorrow

We are the same... they get what they need/want some luxuries and some bargains, rather than providing equally money spends. They have never compared and contrasted what was spent on anyone else. Last weekend we were invited out to meet DS2's parents, and were taking bets that they had something bit to tell us... proposal, pregnancy, moving away, request for deposit for house... what was lovely was that DS1 said if it is a deposit for a house, he would give him the money. I declined, stating we would cover his deposit as we are his parents, DS1 said if we both gave him the deposit money, his mortgage would be lower, its nice they are now helping each other. All I can say is thank god it was not a deposit... or a proposal... or a pregnancy... or moving away!
Made a sneaky trip to the coop tonight. Remember the Prosecco offer finishes tomorrow😱😱
I got my little bag of sugar for 5p and my honest tomatoes for 7p. I will start a separate honest stash of tomatoes as I don't want them to get mixed up with those terrible dishonest tins😕
