I am lovely these lists :haha: nice bread nice cheese, you are all as bad as me, no wonder we end up spending a fortune because regular stuff just is not good enough at christmas and then it comes to January, everyone is depressed and skint and can only afford, cheap bread and cheap cheese :dohh:

we are at the inlaws this year so dont need to buy all of that so my list is just normal things plus a cheese selection board, chocolate treats and alcohol. I made a cake and my mum brought us a pudding.

dont forget things like custard, cream and mince pies
 
My inlaws are bringing the meat, my mum's bringing pudding and my sis is bringing chipolatas & bacon.

My list:
tin foil
pickled onions
potatoes
carrots
broccolli
cranberry sauce
gravy
stuffing
ginger ale (to go in gran's brandy)
crackers (the pulling kind, not the Jacob's kind)
melon
strawberry sauce
ingredients for making soup
cream
nibbles & dips
beer
wine
lemonade
orange juice
cola
bagels
some special dog food for Poochie's Christmas dinner

I think that's about it but guaranteed I'll have forgotten something. And obviously I get some normal shopping in too to keep us going.
 
only things on mine are
some nibbles like biscuits, twiglets
nappies & wipes
toilet roll

we not really doing xmas dinner this year with OH working so just a few bits to make sure we dont run out
 
thankfully we done ours online, will be delivered on Monday, we always forget gravy! lol
 
Ive not even started writing my proper food list :dohh: We usually just put whatever we want in the trolley but I also need to get certain things for recipes or I'll forget :dohh:
 
we are going to my grans,
so really all we ned is something yummy for x-mas eve, chocs, some booze and baby wipes :)
