Probably nail polish or stationery - although I am bad at frittering money and buy this kind of thing too often!

A huge bag of salad which I would throw around the living room and then I would hide, a bit of a practical joke on my husband who once said I had an explosive temper.

A solo cinema trip in the day if I had time.

Oh, that's a good idea!

I'd probably end up giving it to my daughter, to spend at Tynemouth Market.

A book/audiobook

A solo cinema trip in the day if I had time.

A paperback, or coffee and a pastry out.

Arrivapercy · 16/08/2024 23:27

I don't really do cash & I've got everything I need. I"d either pop it in a charity collection pot or split it between the DC who like having some sweetie money.

4 pint cans of bud and a packet of dry roasted peanuts. I might get a £2 scratch card with that too

zzplea · 16/08/2024 23:18

Charbonnel et Walker violet and rose creams. Although that would probably only cover 5 chocolates so maybe just violet creams.

That's what I'm intending to spend any birthday present money on this year.

MissingMoominMamma · 16/08/2024 23:13

I’d buy myself some flowers.

Goldensunnydays81 · 16/08/2024 23:10
