As with the username I'm a nosey parker and I always find myself wondering what people have in their shopping bags.

What has everybody brought recently?

I went shopping as it was payday and I came to an absolute blank. Literally all I brought was some baby grows for my daughter.

Need to go find my daughter's first pair of shoes in Clarks today ❤️

Bought a pair of ferragamo sunglasses, a phone wallet bag type flat shoes and a dress. Afternoon tea outfit sorted but nowhere to go.

Plants! Popped into the garden centre & went straight to the reduced section - got 7 perennials for under £25, all look absolutely fine just not got lots of fresh flowers etc on them.

I'm sure you know op meant bought. From reading the rest of the post .

Obviously, but it's really annoying to see the word brought when it should be bought.

A dress for my dd1's graduation 3 weeks ago.

And dh's emergency passport as he discovered his had expired yesterday morning when he and ds were booked on a flight at 5pm! Turns out that going to the passport office and begging works, but it's close to £200 rather than £70.

A desk
Some storage boxes
A can of sparkling orange
Hair cuts for my dogs
A hair cut and colour for me

Nothing exciting but the orange juice was delicious and my hair is much better than it was this morning.

a hanging toiletry bag
a travel jewellery box
a pill holder

A Rolykit from a charity shop for £5! Very pleased with my bargain and it holds all my sewing stuff perfectly.

Books mostly, a running wheel for our feline overlord cat and some bookmarks.

Where did you get the running wheel? My furry demons would probably love one. Or actually would love it for 2 minutes,then ignore it in favour of the box.

@caringcarer That's so lovely, and something she'll always remember ❤️

Today I've bought a Nuxe travel kit for a friend, a bag for my son, and some roses for me!

AssertiveGertrude · 28/07/2023 22:07

I bought (vinted) a make up box with a light and mirror

I have my eye on the Stackers jewellery boxes but they are pricey but I know I would have them for years and I am trying to care for myself more after years of not

All my purchases have been boring lately, a shed, a big padlock for the shed and a new garden bench as one of the feet snapped off the old one.

I also spent £23 getting my cat's anal glands emptied at the vet today, but don't know if that counts as something I've bought.

uncomfortablydumb53 · 28/07/2023 22:36

A folding travel mirror on a stand with LED lights around it.

Anal gland emptying might have topped the goats.
