Woo hoo! Thanks Reastie, Christmas is now on it's way :)

I bought a Zhu Zhu pets advent calendar for 1.99 from amazon the other day but that's about it so far.

Actually I have just got some stocking fillers - free Lego with a 60p Daily Mail. I left the paper in the shop though ;)

[leavesalmondoutofit]

My first Christmas gifts this year are two Mellissa and Doug toys. The clock and a tool box half price at £6.50 each from Clintons the card shop.

Blimey I have already got most of the kids things just need a good price on a disney toddler doll really. But I know I will end up buying even more once this thread gets going as the bargains were so amazing last year! The house of fraser sale has been amazing got lots of dolls, barbies and those solo skate boards for a £5!

[siblingrevelryagain]

Cath kidston Xmas mug for £4.71 at amazon. Ideal for a stocking filler or small gift for teacher etc:

I've not bought any Christmas presents yet but I buy household things when I see them and put them away
My DD has a June birthday and because she gets a 'big' main present, I buy her little things (one for every year) so 12 this year, in a nice box.

Earrings, nail varnish, bath smellies (especially in 3 for 2 offers)

Marking place.

Your threads saved.me a fortune last year reastie.

I can't believe it's May already, seems like yesterday we were all here comparing bargains!

[misstiredbuthappy]

I love how you are all talking about Christmas this early :) im not alone

[Reastie]

It's getting earlier every year, right?! Last year I think I started the threads in about July, give us a couple of years and it'll be December 26th

[FourAndDone]

Marking place!! I am getting married in oct followed by 2weeks abroad. I am very worried! I did great last year thanks to your threads reastie.
I hope we have no more arguments about 'place marking' or 'thanking Reastie' and wasting space on the thread lol!!

[Mama1980]

oohhh you're back place marking, last year these threads were amazing.

[ItsSoFluffyImGonnaDie]

Ooh, last year's thread helped me loads and as baby is due in August, thus Christmas may be a bit more frugal due to maternity pay, so glad I've found this!

[Wineandchoccy]

Marking my place.

Here's to a low cost Christmas 2014

[Redmasseyinmydrive]

Marking place, I've only bought the zhu zhu advent calendars that I posted on last thread.
