Spreading the costs-what have you bought?

[whlparkstone]

After finding a couple of gifts that I had bought in the January sales I decided I would like to make a start on some purchases for Christmas.

It�s nice to spread the cost, and it also takes the stress out of the main event.

Interested to hear what you have already purchased-food/toys/boots 3for2 etc

I went to B & M yesterday and they have the big tins of Christmas sweets for �8. Twice the size of the normal ones. I got Heroes and Roses and hid them when I got back. Out of sight out of mind. Our trip is next month so concentrating on that but if I see anything I need for Christmas will get it before we go and I'm hoping to get some presents over in Florida.

Ive got a couple of little bits as I've seen them, saw some gingerbread matchmakers for �1 and thought oooh so I got those and some limited edition Christmas skittles with flavours such as cinnamon orange in them, so thought oooh and got them too. You just have to grab these things when you see them

Nothing. My Christmas shopping starts mid-Nov in Florida and ontinues into Dec at home. I love the atmosphere, hustle & bustle of the shops in those weeks.

Oooh where are these Christmas Skittles? I need to get me some of those!

Christmas wise, I always get stuff in the boots sale to put away for the following year.
Pandora had a sale back in May time, and I got a few disney charms in that, aswell as 2 bangles.

Scentsy had a sale on a few months ago and I get some bits in that also including 4 Christmas sack gift sets

The rest of my stuff I need to buy I'll do closer to Christmas, unless I see a good deal. I love the atmosphere and traditions of walking around the busy shops at Christmas time.

I think the Christmas skittles were �1 for a big bag in B & M maybe I should try them and report back 😉
