Weekly shopping delivery from Tesco, yesterday.

It would have been mayo, shampoo and soap from Lidl today. But I was late out of work so had to rush up to school for Dd2 coming out.

Xiaoxiong · 14/09/2018 17:16

A flat white for the train, but I suspect that's not what you mean!

Last proper purchase was some NikWax stuff to re-waterproof and re-wax all the coats before the autumn comes.

Last retail therapy purchases were a load of stuff from the Ines De La Fressange line at Uniqlo, absolutely loving it (especially the flannel PJs!!) And about to buy the MN approved life-changing jeggings from M&S as I need a new pair of coloured jeans.

UpstartCrow · 14/09/2018 17:20

A stamp, but then I live in the fast lane.

ILiveInSalemsLot · 14/09/2018 17:25

Graphite pencils from an art gallery.

Storm4star · 14/09/2018 17:28

A pair of jeggings recommended on the style and beauty boards here! Apparently they hide a muffin top! I'm eagerly awaiting the delivery!

DoubleNegativePanda · 14/09/2018 17:35

The supplies to make dd's homecoming mum for school. It's a weird texas tradition (I am not texan) that I am peer-pressured into doing. They are useless bizarre decorations that cost a fortune and are worn for a single stinking day.

Here's what the monstrosities look like. These are like the ones I made last year for dd and her friend. I was going to post a pic of the ones I made but then realized it had the town name, school name and dd's name on it Hmm

Samosa leaves and chicken schwarma meat. Guess what I'm making!

Chrisinthemorning · 14/09/2018 17:40

If we don’t count Aldi food shopping (also gin Grin), it was Home Sense on Monday. I bought a photo frame, a reed diffuser, a water bottle, soap and hairspray. Nearly all in clearance. Grin

Some 5% fat Greek yogurt from the Co Op, which I had to return and swap for 0% fat, as I'm on WW and only the 0% stuff is free.
