THE SHOPPING THREAD :-)

[arcadia]

So glad I am not the only one.  Normally have the typical answer oh this I have had it for agggeeess, don't you take any notice..  Although it does not normally work.

If my DH misses the delivery he usually sees it on the credit card. I don't buy much online though. Not as much as him. He loves his vintage car stuff. We sort of equal out.

Let's all have 30 seconds of silence for maddys DH cos he would've heard a lot creative answers not yet published

I'd like to meet the dear man and congratulate him on being the most tolerant person on earth as far as his DW's shopping is concerned.

Three cheers for Maddy"S DH..


I just buy what I want, so does my DH.

He buys cars, and car stuff, I buy kitchen stuff.

[Wonder]

We both just buy what we want. Most of the time DH wouldn't even notice that I've bought anything.

Hilarious

Mine is on the way too Julie, in fact I received notification that 4 parcels have been dispatched to me today. 

I love getting things in the mail.  Nothing I like better than seeing the words "on board with driver" 

I agree Julie, the only problem is if you are not going to be home and the parcel gets left at the front door.  That always worries me.  I have 2 days with no meals out with friends this week and that's Wed & Thursday so hopefully they will come on those days before I leave to visit Geoff in the early afternoon, especially the 18kg box from my DD in Melbourne.

Yes they never used to leave parcels if no-one was home, now it's a bit hit and miss as to whether they do or not.  Wouldn't be fun having to pick up a 18kg box from the PO  (hope it's something nice)

Yay, my big parcel and one of the small ones have been delivered. DD had some lovely gifts for me in the box - sandals, 2 recipe books, 2 bottles of wine and a Sunbeam Café Crema espresso machine plus a bag of coffee, a present for her Nana and some goodies from their shop for a couple of lads I want to give a present to on Christmas Day.   Also the clothes I left behind when I was over there recently 

[Wonder]

Sounds like a great package Judy.

[cookie1]

Lovely package Judy. I had a Sunbeam like that. In fact I still have it, but use the capsule one in preference. Only because it is quicker. I loved the coffee from it.

[mcmich]

What a generous daughter you have Judy.  Lots of lovely gifts.

After having coffee at Cookies, I bought DH a the capsule machine for Fathers' Day that year. He loves it - and it came in red.

Nice, Judy

Sooo excited. Bought a new toy - Philips Airfryer XL size. Harvey Norman matched Myer's sale price of $399. And it came in white instead of black at Myer. Got to match my TM

Bring on the healthy fries! 😁😝

Cheeky monkey 
He would be in stunned silence with what I crammed in 2 hours today  finished the Xmas presents, and bought a box of apothecary jars & small milk bottles with lids for hampers I'm making up (friends/teachers).....just gotta cook it all now    tomorrow is going to be 41c, so will crank up aircon & cook myself silly I think.
