Share with me your recent retail therapy.

I bought these fairy lights from Cable and Cotton. I love the glow they've bought to my kitchen.

I bought a neom candle - I got one for Christmas and loved the smell, but it was discontinued. I'm just found it half price in the sale at Tebay 🙂

M&S curtains, half price in the sale. Just waiting for my local seamstress to reopen her shop to have them altered.

Ugg Boots - I've had a few pairs of cheap fake ones from Primark over the years but this year I just went for it and bought a pair of proper ones, I love it.
An Oodie - its a copycat Amazon one but it's so warm and stops me putting the heating on.
Diamond painting kits - just finished a space themed one and starting a Pikachu one for DS10.
A soft jersey jumpsuit from New Look
Some gin cocktails

My postman is a busy man 😂

@Onedropbeat I'd love to buy some candles- is your stockist online? Also love rose oil but have yet to find one that I really love- which one did you get?

The rise bath is from Ren skincare . The smell is divine.
I used to buy at John Lewis but go direct now as they don’t charge delivery

Root touch up spray!

I bought a pair of Jimmy Choo sandals, I don't care that we can't go out, they look lovely in my shoe room. I bought a pair last summer too, ended up doing my weekly food shop in them as we was locked down then too.

Looking forward to being able to get dressed up and wear them.

Posh towels from Yves Delorme. They are so soft. We bought 2 sets of only exactly what we use (2 shower towels, one hand towel and 2 bathmats), no need to have others hanging around when we don't use them. Old towels going to local animal shelter.

A diamond art kit really enjoying doing it. It takes up a lot of time but I’ve got plenty due to
Lockdown.

I've just wrapped a Harry Potter diamond kit for ds' birthday. Sceptical about how good it will be as it was only £13 or so from Amazon.

He's only 9 so I may end up doing it (I've just finished his HP jigsaw from Xmas!)

He does get presents just for him - honest! Grin

Leopard print Jimmy Choo pumps.

I have no where to wear them but they were less than half price.

NelAntarctic · 26/01/2021 20:17

@Onedropbeat Thanks! I'm going to treat myself!

ScrumpyBetty · 27/01/2021 10:20

@colouringindoors oooh very pretty...where did you find these beauties? 😊

Bluebell9 · 27/01/2021 10:31

My Roomba hoover. It is amazing!

I have a very hairy dog and it does a fabulous job. It really brings the pile up on the carpet and is great on the hard floor too.

My floors have gone from being constantly covered in dog hair despite hoovering a few times a week, to having hardly any dog hair around and best of all I have more time!

Notanorthadontist · 27/01/2021 11:41

@colouringindoors I love your lights. Are they battery or mains? Please can you share where you got them.
I’m loving my new Eufy, quieter and more powerful than my old one which died.
Also my diffuser, a bargain from FB market place. My house smells gorgeous.

colouringindoors · 27/01/2021 17:09

They're mains notanorrhodontist weren't cheap, but give me a lot of pleasure 😊
