Hi all
xx


got OH to take me to the Mall to check something I saw in a store there last week

In, bought items, and out in 15 minutes ........... and most of that time was a) finding the items (they'd moved the display from last week), and b) finding a cash register where I could pay.


I got 2 sweaters for 50% off ................ and then was given a scratch card, and got a further 10% off :-D :-D :-D :-D

So that's what one calls happy shopping... :-)

We had to ring around to get one thing I wanted and travel around as well... it was for August and they had all sorts of Tumblekin toys but I wanted the red fire engine where he tumbles down the ladder into the seat of his fire engine and tumbles along... they are solid wooden toys and I reckon my SIL will like it too .... and he is fussy as!! ;-)

Glad you had a good shop Sylv

I must go out of the house to get some bits i.e wrapping paper and cards, bought all my stuff online.

HID is useless as he does not buy anyone a present, so he does not care...but I do

My girls will get money but my parents and sister have gifts that need wrapping and I cannot do it by myself

Must go to bed as it is nearly breakfast time :-D

Good morning anyone who is around. Just going to wander around that scrumptious breakfast table. Thank you Sylvs.



Had a good night's sleep for a change so I am rarin' to go - don't know where, but I'm rarin' :-D :-D


Having hair chopped this morning so will look better than a bramble bush.



Um.....who does the tumbling Perse? August or a wooden fireman??



Jax, hope HID helps you with your wrapping - or - you could do what Sylvs does and put them into gift bags with tissue paper on top! :-)


See you later ~~~

We're in shock at your new hair do Gins! 3 hours? For a cut? You would have thought the hairdresser would have evened it off though!

Phillips air fryer that weighs a ton, box about the size of a microwave and something that I saw advertised on late night tv that chops blends and does everything in 3 seconds...which is another biggish box and a pair of riding boots for the sister

Yu can buy these things from Lakeland and they offer a 'gift wrap' service !!!

I cannot recommend this Company highly enough !!

I ordered some goods this morning and received an e-mail around 2pm to say they had been dispatched.!

I also had an e-mail whilst I was placing my order to offer me a very useful free gift worth £12 but didn't read it until I had placed my order.

I 'phoned then and they instantly said they would send it through to me !

I once ordered two deep fry pans and when they arrived - one had a tiny chip off the non stick covering on the rim so I phoned them and they instantly sent me out another two new ones - when I asked about sending back the originals they said "perhaps you might like to take them along to a local 'Charity shop' and pass them on to them ?

GREAT service!!!

I ordered from Amazon and they offered gift wrap for £3 ish

I did think about it, but as one of the boxes was damaged I want to see whether the contents were ok...maybe if I had asked for gift wrapping I would have got a better box :-D

I have ordered quite a bit from them in the past, without any problem and worry about using someone I dont know after my debit card was fraudently used after last christmas.

I think it was my sisters present last year that did it :-(

This year she wanted me to use ebay, but its all this paypal stuff and I don't understand that

If you want anything which they sell - I can personally recommend them.

I have used them for many years and I think they are the most reputable, reliable and efficient Company I have ever encountereed !!
