Title: I've started...
Post by: Scrumpy on October 28, 2022, 09:29:33 AM
... my Christmas shopping..
I discovered that my daughter Marnie likes Malfy Gin and Grapefruit.. 28 pounds.. Had I got off my bum the week before Tesco were offering it for 23 pounds..
 Like most.. I start early so that I can spread the cost.. 
Richard my son-in-law is retiring at Christmas.. I have bought him a book of mysteries/murders, cases that have to be solved by the reader..

Me too, I often get stuff throughout the year too, I'll see something on Ebay and think....I know who'll like that, so I get it and put it away in the cupboard.

I bought a litre of Baileys last week when it was on offer, that's for my DIL.  I've also bought toys for my Grandson from Amazon.

Apart from their personal presents I always give my son, daughter, SIL, 2 grands, and Himself a tin of either Roses or Quality Street. BUT, I have to buy them on Christmas Eve as If they are in the house I can't keep my paws out of them.  [1160]
