I don't really have a sweet tooth, but stick some disgustingly unhealthy savoury food in front of me and I will practically inhale it!

I just did my shopping list on the Tesco website so will be buying that tomorrow, went a teeny bit over my budget, but I really want to try them new Tillmans Toast Me things. They look yummy

Now looking on the Tesco wesite to see if they do Xmas trees cheaper than argos

 

[Wiggler]

OMG OMG OMG!!!! Babies 'R' Us has £130 off my pram!!!! Damn I wish I had £280 on me right now!

 

[new_to_ttc]

Awww no wiggler... thats sods law!! Do they not have a payment plan thingy like Mothercare does? You pay till its paid off then you can collect?

 

[Wiggler]

Hmm, I'm not sure, but knowing my luck if I bought it at the end of the month when OH gets paid it would be cheaper in the January sales! (When we bought our telly it was £350 - 2 months later it was reduced by £100 )
I think I will be patient and wait til January, as much as I want it now, I dont want to spend my Xmas money on it.

 

[new_to_ttc]

Just be mindful they may be on sale now as its part of the spring/summer collection or something and a new range may be available in the new year so they may not keep them in stock!

I've just seen John Lewis have alot of money off my buggy too, eeek!! Must resist, as we planned on getting the bedroom in the sales and then the buggy!! xxx

 

[24/7]

And have come home early today feeling yucky, and it feels like everything is about to drop out my stomach, naughty beanie. xxx

 

[new_to_ttc]

Oh no 24/7 hope you feeling better soon!

I highly doubt I will be getting a new pram. My friend has a friend selling a silvercross one, my friend isnt a snob, but I trust her instinct and she said its immaculate and she would buy it without hesitation (and I think she is like me and wouldnt buy something if it would mean buying twice). Oh and its a travel system one, and the car seat is brand new in packaging as it was replaced for fading but they never used the new one. Im just waiting for my friend to get me the model number so I can take a peak, and get me a price. Its a £400 pram, so I suspect it wont be cheap lol but still silvercross was built tolast, and it'll still be cheaper than new.

15 weeks today i'm an orange
Bumps coming along nicely u all showing yet?
I still don't know which buggy i want been looking at, quinny buzz, m&p skate, or obbay zezu??? Hmmmm x

 

[new_to_ttc]

Oh I look forward to seeing your fruit change so I can see how big my baby is hehe I should get the ticker but no space for it lol Joshua likes to see yours to see how big ours is (if that makes sense) for the orange woohooo

I just nosied on the silvercross website and I think I found the pram that Ive been offered (and she was right its a lovely pram)... first pram I looked and said wow I like it! (so thats a start lol) My friend said its immaculately clean, and I know she wouldnt lie, so quite excited to see it for myself now I may be getting my pram yay!!! lol

Hi Everyone!!
Thanks for the welcome!!
I am home today studying- boooo!!!
Talking of prams i have been looking around and i had a copy of preganacy and birth magazine and there was a 4 page spread on them - whats good etc.... there are so many to choose from (with a wide ranging price tag too!!- i wonder do some of them push the baby themselves for the price??) lol. xxx

(with a wide ranging price tag too!!- i wonder do some of them push the baby themselves for the price??) lol. xxx

and that be why I isnt buying new lolol I understand it for first time mums, I was the same, but I definitely learnt my lesson or where to put the extra money hehe

 

[Wiggler]

yay! congrats on 15 weeks! Nearly half way there now hun! No bump here yet, bubs is hiding pretty well, although if I puff out my belly my flabby bit looks like an impressive bump (I have far too much spare time)

New - I heard amazing things about Silver Cross, which is why I am getting one, I want one that will last, and the reviews on them are amazing

I am a naughty girl, I just doubled our food shopping budget cos I wanted trifle, and other yummy bits. Woopsie!

I picked a new Xmas tree, it doesn't come with decs, but its £20 cheaper and we are buying cheapie decs from Poundland.

I figured out after this months bills and Dylans Xmas pressies me and OH will have about £50 each to spend on pressies for each other (I will have a tenner more though as I was given a HMV voucher for my bday and decided to use that as well) I have no idea what to buy him though... we don't normally do presents to each other. Any ideas ladies? x

 

[Wiggler]

Ooh, new, show us a piccy!!!

 

[new_to_ttc]

Use your voucher on you hunni!!!! £50 is ample! How soppy are you as a couple??? I had no idea what to get my best friend (male!) .. men are so hard to buy for.. and I have bought a novelty pack that allows you to name a star. Im struggling for a perfect name, so far I got 'our missing link' but I'll come up with something (ideas welcomed lol). It'll just be something unique and special and I know when we have to be apart we miss each other and I thought it would be something we can share and make us feel closer. I told my mum about it, and she is doing the same for my dad. You get a gift pack, lots of star stuff (we're interested in the stars so its cool) but its also just really romantic, and once you register you get a certificate with your stars name on it. On iWOOT ts £20 plus postage, but I found it this weekend on I want a gift (or something) for ony £12 plus postage so bargin!!!! There is a lot of hype that you dont legally name the star, but do you care??? The romance is still there and for the 2 of you you'll have a focal point in the sky ... (if you want to do it for valentines day for a little more you can name neighbouring stars).

Great you found a cheaper tree Go easy on the decs this yeah, use colourful tinsel or something and get loads half price in January and have a top tree next year

 

[new_to_ttc]

Lets see if this works lol

Wow sorry its HUGE lolol but least it worked..

 

[Wiggler]

Aww the star thing is really sweet! If I got that for OH he would say "you got me a peice of paper?!?!?!" I am getting him an album he wants which costs about a tenner, no idea what else..

I know I should spend the voucher on myself, but I feel really odd buying stuff for myself. I might put it towards getting Lost season 5 on blu-ray though

Yeah, we aren't getting too many tree decs as the cat will go nuts and try to kill the tree, bless him!! Deffo getting decs in the Jan sales, some really nice ones. we normally get the cheapie ones and they just don't last.

 

[Wiggler]

That pram is gorgeous!! And the same colour as the one I'm getting.

Wiggler, Wilko's always have 50% or more off their decorations in Jan and mine have lasted well this is my erm erm 4th or 5th Christmas in this house and they were bought for here so that many years! Now we just buy 1 decoration a year, Joshua choses it (and it probably costs as much for that one as it did for buying the initial bulk lot lol), I guess next year we'll be buying 2 new decorations each year, might need a bigger tree lol

Oooo Wiggler its almost identical I assume mine will have some little differences than in my pictures as the pram is 2009 edition (I think) and that'll be this years ... hehe bet mine is cheaper lol

 

[Wiggler]

Aww! Thats really sweet!

Yea the prams are almost identical! The main differences are the handles and the one I'm getting is parent facing and forward facing. Mine is sooooo expensive. £410 on its own, and £525 with the carseat, hence waiting til the Jan sales. (OH gave me a budget of £300 origionally - 2 weeks of pestering later he agreed)

The cost is so worth it though, as it will last for when we have another baby
