THE SHOPPING THREAD :-)

[judydawn]

Great shopping day Chookie, wow I'd love to come shopping with you    Your ice-cream maker sounds like the new one they gave me as a replacement but without the second bowl.  I'm glad they saw sense and gave you your pie machine replacement immediately too.

I received your little parcel today and I hope you don't mind me sharing it with the forum members.  Another little gift for my grand-children although I am going to use them for the first time when I serve up boiled eggs to DH just for a laugh   Thanks Chookie, they are so cute.

Lucky JD, they are so cute, clever chookie.

You had a great day Chookie!....and love your gift for Judy's grandy's    

I succumbed



Liked the format much better with this book, and I'm busting to find a shabby green tray like Jamie's...LOVE IT!







Picked up the latest sims expansion for DD, plus denim shorts.
....and grabbed a few pairs of bonds jocks for DS, then came home and saw a commercial for 30% off underwear tomorrow at Target  
Typical.....went to his room to take them back, then repurchase at 30% off tomorrow ( as you do  )......but he'd already ripped the tags off!

Very nice buys girls.

Love the egg cosies.

Very cute egg cosies
I seriously can't do any more shopping for a long time!!
I had to contact POK as the cake stand was broken when I opened the package. I rang them, and have been asked to send a photo, so once my technical problems are fixed (by DH ), I'm hoping they will replace it for me. For some reason, I haven't been able to email from my phone, or download photos from my phone to the computer.

Bummer ES.
Jeninwa just posted that Tenina's new book is available for purchase.

They are so good now  without having to send the stuff  back. Always good to take a photo ànd send. Just phone them.

Must remember to change keyboards
I love POK

Went to Readings last night,  and bought GC books to go with other stuff ,  for Xmas.  With last of Book Voucher,  one that I have been drooling after.  Will post photos later as I am using 3 G on IPad,  and can't do..

Anyone got Jamie America?

I got it at a thrift shop secondhand, good enough to gift, but now wondering if a good buy?

Thanks

Thanks very much. Probably just s well paid only £3 for it.

What was interesting maddie was the history and what there's had bought on this link. How is your DH?

[Yvette]

Good purchases everyone and very cute egg warmers.

[maddy]

He's still not well DJ, and can only keep bananas and that Gatorade powder in his drinks, in his system. He came off the tractor at 12.30 last night, so that's not helping, along with the stress he's under. He needs to go to the docs, but said he's too busy....he'll fall in a screaming heap, but he's not listening!....can't do anymore for him.

[droverjess]

Ahhhh, huge sympathies to you.
Hoping he'll see the light soon.
Almost all farmers are pigheaded. All around the world!
Same people, just in different locations.
Sending hugs to you xxx

great purchases everyone.

Maddie, hope the worst of it's almost over and his body some get some much needed rest.
