To be annoyed by sparkly/shiny bits sent in invites which then go all over the floor when opened?

[MissTFied]

Pointless bits in the shape of balloons and stars.

Just more mess to clear up!

Be glad that you're invited!

What is the point?

Love sprinkles in cards.... fun.

I used to LOVE THEM until I had children

This was because I didn't have 100 cleaning-up chores to do already

Now I agree with you

bah humbug!

Just wait until you open your umbrella and find that someones put them in there, then you are justified in being annoyed!

grump grump grump

YANBU, flipping hate them, my DDs insist that we have to keep all of them for craft stuff aaaargh

i put them in cards just to wind people like you up
nipping off to shop now to buy more to post to you

another one who doesn't see the point in them!!!!

Great idea dmo - will put in next xmas card to mil!

Waste of money & pointless imo, don't really care about the mess they make!

I do think they look pretty but they are a bugger to clear up. I went to keep fit the other day, unrolled my mat onto the floor and there was a big cloud of glitter! It looked beautiful.The girls must have been using it as a rug when they were doing glueing.

No no no dmo! Please don't! I will have to do an inward 'argh!' of frustration!

I received an invite today, and was most grateful to have none of that crap in it.

As for having an umbrella full over my head...

Party poopers!

I have a couple of friends who do this, after X years of forgetting I now open all stuff from them - over the bin!

Oooooh I hate that - followed by the gift list

I think YAB very U indeed, actually. They are lovely. All sparkly. And hilarious when it happens to someone else.
(OK, I admit, I'm less than amused when they're all over my floor.)

dmo .. me too

do it at birthdays etc just to wind people up

I see it probably works

I actually find a gift list in an invite MUCH more annoying!

Ooh you buggers!
