Bubble, I agree actually. Was in Poundland today and literally thought, oooo that would be good as a stocking filler.
I would much rather buy bits every month than get clobbered with Decembers pay packet. Perhaps some of you save. I do pay my CB into a savings account, but wouldn't get it out for Christmas Presents, new washing machine or freezer maybe....
I have also decided to cut down. Last year I wasted loads of money on DS, 3, the present he liked the best was the sword which went 'durrrrring' from Poundland, so much so that when it broke, DH sat their for 3 hours with his soldering iron doing 'stuff' to fix it. They didn't have any more or I would have bought another.
Thomas Aquadraw has been played with 'once' and I think that cost me 30 fecking quid. The 30.00 scooter has been hijacked by next door as DS doesn't go on it, and the wooden train set is up in the loft as DS wasn't interested in it, another 30.00, never again.
