I got her an XXS/XS, I think a couple of them are an over sized range. They'll probably bury her as she's a twig When they arrive I'll open it and see how big it is. I got DD1 a M (she's a size 10)

You're doing great

You're doing great

I'm literally going through a manic period where I have to spend to cheer myself up, but I don't know what to buy so I'm throwing money at anything. And it's frustrating because I'm having to wait for it all to arrive which makes me buy more stuff to settle my mood vicious cycle. *Hoping* so much that I'm finished by the end of the month so I won't have to stress much more, nor work extra shifts to fund it.

Ha ha I can relate to that. I am worried stuff won't come in time or will sell out so have bought loads this week to make sure I have 'stuff'
My lists are a mess too as I've got loads of orders but no actual stash to look at so keep buying more.

It's terrible. Shame on these companies for not sending things immediately with 2 hour same day delivery I've ordered from so many different places I have no idea what's coming, when it's coming or where it's coming from - It'll be Christmas for me,
I'm glad I'm not alone, I guess it's safer to do it this way as end of November through to December is peak for the couriers and who knows if it'll be "lost", arrive or be late. Fingers crossed your bits arrive quickly!!

 

[SmartieMeUp]

Bought DD2's best friend an avocado Jellycat bag charm and OH's trainers.

Ordered DD2 a bike which was supposed to be delivered tomorrow. Had it set to be delivered to OH's work unit so it's unseen/too bulky to store and I could wait there tomorrow due to working all day today. Instead, I had a text at 13:04 today saying it'll be delivered between 10:27am-12:27pm nobody was at the unit, thankfully another business has taken it for us for the time being.

Also, I strongly believe my White Fox order has been stolen by Evri Tracking hasn't updated from "We've collected your parcel" on Sunday morning.

I feel ya, I am also panicking and feeling behind, but I know too well the shopping for your mood as well

Hi! Love the lists. We’ve also gone a bit mad this year and I haven’t saved for Christmas so in a similar position, in my head we’ll be having a budget Christmas but I think we all know that never actually happens!!

Are those turkey dinosaur plushies in the photo? If they are that is AMAZING and I need some lol x

Fingers crossed you manage to feel like you've caught up, you do have a list to cover England though Sometimes the only therapy you need is shopping.

Nobody sticks to a budget haha. They are! I got them from Temu (first time ever from ordering from there) and I must say I'm not too pleased with them especially for £14 - they're not very stuffed so I think I might add some extra stuffing to bulk them out. They are only for the dogs though.

Ha ha so true.
Me and the Evri lady know each other by name now ha ha. She is so good though and generally comes early evening when she knows I'm home.

Most my parcels are here now except for a few which are not too far away.

 

[motherofboys]

Yay for things arriving hope evri find your parcel soon

 

[Babybump87]

Fab lists !

How cute is her letter

 

[SmartieMeUp]

Evri has arrived!!!
@c1403 the XS hoodie is huge considering it's an XS. I'm a size 10 and it fits me. So DD2 is going to look like she's wearing an Oodie I regret getting DD1 the M now.

 

[SmartieMeUp]

DD1 has said she wants the Melanie Martinez K-12 colouring book and a Melanie Martinez MiniMelody piano. I don't really trust the MiniMelody site, plus it's from America and they only have a 30 day returns policy from day of purchase and it takes 4 weeks for it to arrive now I need to look elsewhere.

She also bought her own Loop earplugs with her birthday money so that takes the idea away.

She's so hard to buy for
