My Xmas Pressy List!

[Waiting4Bump]

I need to buy, buy, buy! Especially now I have seen the Coca-Cola advert. I think it's been a kick up the bum. I've been putting it off a little bit, but I only have 41 days left and I have so much to do.

I have to buy for:
Mum
Dad
Nan
Nana
Dan (OH)
Best friends x 4
Cousins x 3

And I haven't written any cards or anything. Plus, I have no ideas of what to buy anyone! Basically, I'm stuffed!
Any help would be much appreciated!

What do you buy 3 children aged 4, 8, and 11 who have everything?
What do you buy for parents who don't do chocolate, sweets, flowers etc?

I just have no ideas? Apart from one of my best friends xx

Bath sets for the ladies?

I'm crap with presents unless i know what people want

 

[Waiting4Bump]

Yeah, me too! I just wish everyone would tell me what they want, but they just say "anything" Why do people say that? I say that too, but I think I must be the easiest person to buy for? Maybe they think they are the same! x

I used to say that too

If you've got a Littlewoods account, they've got some nice bath sets, jewellery and mens gifts on there that are 3 for 2. Just a thought if you're struggling for money

I'm buying for:

OH
Mum
Dad
Older brother + SIL
Younger brother
Niece 2yrs old
2 Nanas
Friends daughter, 4 yrs old
Friends unborn baby due 12th Dec
Best friend

Ive ordered alot of stuff tonight from boots, amazon and next
Got to get some of the kids stuff from argos, half of it was out of stock lol

 

[Waiting4Bump]

Don't let me get a Littlewoods account. I'd go stupid, and never be able to pay it all back If I don't physically have the money, & see it go, it's like it doesn't exist if you get me?
But if I wasn't like that, I'd do it! I'll still have a look though!

Ooh I so need to have a look online x

 

[Squidge]

Yeah i get you Littlewoods are daft with they're accounts, I wish my OH didn't have one, they keep upping his credit limit every couple of months! Luckily, we don't spend much on it but it's at £9200 now He's had it a good few years though.

Suppose it's a good job i don't let him spend much in it

Erm.....back on topic Have you tried boots 3 for 2's? They usually have nice proper perfume/aftershave giftsets Also things like Baileys, Jack Daniels etc

 

[FEDup1981]

Ive still a load to buy even though ive bought a load. Still got both sets of parents, my 2 nephews and a friends lil girl. Just need to win the lottery first!!

OT - dunno if ive missed a thread but r u back with ur OH now waiting4bump? xxx

 

[Waiting4Bump]

I think I'm going to pop into Boots in town today, if it's open? But it's Sunday so I don't think it will be Oh, I'll have to go tomorrow instead in that case!

And yeah, I could do with a lottery win too FEDup! It's just not going to happen though I don't think & No, not back with Ex-OH. This is my new man! x

 

[Squidge]

Boots are usually open Something like 10-4 i think.

 

[Waiting4Bump]

You have obviously never been to where I live then. People always say you could fire a cannon down the main street and hit nobody, it's like a ghost town on Sunday!

 

[FEDup1981]

Ooooh a new man eh?! Hope hes a keeper! x

 

[Waiting4Bump]

It's early days, but I have a pretty good feeling about this one! xx

 

[Waiting4Bump]

I know what to get 2 people of my list! I'm so happy. I'm not saying who in case they come on here & see it, but I know!! Sorry, I'm just really excited!

Just got the others to figure out now. Why are people so hard to buy for? I think my grandparent's are just going to end up with smellies, & chocolates! The little ones will end up with clothes & thinks!
I'm really excited now though! x

 

[mummysangels]

you sound organised to me, i haven't even thought about presents yet!

 

[Waiting4Bump]

Well, that's a new one! I don't think I've ever been called organised before, so thank you very much!
I think it all falls into place really quickly though & I like the excitement of shopping in the dark, all wrapped up with the Christmas lights on!

I'll probably end up at the Trafford Centre on Thursday night as well! x

 

[JayDee]

If you decide to buy all of your presents from boots 3 for 2 you can order them online, and if you spend over £45 you get free delivery, or you did last time I looked.

They have got some nice smellys/housey type things as well as daft gadgets and stuff as well. It's worth a look, even if only online.

 

[Waiting4Bump]

Some will be from Boots, & some won't but I will definately check out the 3 for 2! I normally always end up treating myself to something from there though as I "got it free" x
