Gas and electric this morning.

Flowers from Aldi for the house, earlier today.

Can't remember the last retail therapy sort of thing I bought. Possibly a tshirt for DD1 at the gig we went to at the weekends

A springy bee on a stick as 18 mo wouldn’t leave Homebase without it! Would it make me a bad mum to reclaim the £1.95 out of her moneybox 😂

ilovesooty · 14/09/2018 17:50

A box of Brillo pads.

SoyDora · 14/09/2018 17:50

Two tins of cherry tomatoes so I can make a Catalan fish dish I saw my BIL have while we are on holiday. Don’t know any recipes for it,but I’ll make it up as I go along.
I also bought a pack of Sausages for the kids’ tea and a pack of fresh cherry tomatoes.

Your candle sounds lovely OP. Very autumnal.

My last purchase was a pack of metallic pens for myself, and a copy of a Horrible Histories book for my DS (ordered together).

I love these threads. They're like nosing into other people's shopping trolleys - which I also enjoy Grin

An eyelash curler in Primark.

A fried breakfast at Morrison's cafe. I'm supposed to be dieting but decided fuck it.

keepingbees · 14/09/2018 18:02

A barbie car for 50p from a charity shop for my dd. Exciting huh Grin

Soyalatteforme · 14/09/2018 18:04

A cosy, chunky grey cardigan and a wipe-clean weekly planner.

MumOfTwoMasterOfNone · 14/09/2018 18:04

Stocking fillers of a unicorn mug, unicorn headband and wand and an alphabet letter hairbrush for DD.

SandysMam · 14/09/2018 18:05

Some razors...I haven’t shaved my pits for 2 weeks as keep forgetting to buy them!! Now I just need to remember to take one in the shower...

GoldenHoops · 14/09/2018 18:06

A beautiful jacket, a dress and a top. I knew I should have avoided town this morning 😁

Scabetty · 14/09/2018 18:07

Diesel, milk and a packet of sweets.

HairyAntoinette · 14/09/2018 18:13

A rubber curry comb.

NightOwlHoney · 14/09/2018 18:15

This afternoon I bought a fascinator to wear to a wedding we're going to in a couple of weeks. I've never worn one before and I feel fancy!

TheLastNigel · 14/09/2018 18:17

A pair of cotton dungarees that look cute on the model but will probably look dumbass on me. But they will only be for lounging in and the occasional foray to the local shop of a Sunday, so I care not. And some Sudafed for my cold that is now in its third week and not shifting.

IncyWincyGrownUp · 14/09/2018 18:34

I bought a vanilla milkshake for my son. He has tonsillitis and feels dreadful, so a milkshake cheer-up was dispensed.

QueenofLouisiana · 14/09/2018 18:52

Guinea pig food, whimzee chew for the hamster.

Rocking my life today.

spiderlight · 14/09/2018 18:53

An orange spice reed diffuser - the same one that they had in our gorgeous holiday cottage last month, to cheer me up after a long dull work week.

Haberpop · 14/09/2018 18:54

1000 Litres of oil.

LuxuryWoman2018 · 14/09/2018 18:55

Erm, a rather expensive watch about half an hour ago in a fit of fedupness - I really don't know what posessed me Blush

Howmanysleepstilchristmas · 14/09/2018 19:10

Food for packed lunches.
Last non-food item was a bra for DD11 (first bra ever)
Last item for me was a coffee mug because the ones in our holiday rental were tiny.
