Am I a wanker...

[TessTackle]

... to buy poundland tinsel and trimmings?

I've just ordered the first 24 (of maybe 100 I have planned) baubles and have got quite nicey ones.

Theme wise I'm going traditional coca cola advert red white and gold...

So ramblings aside, would I be a wanker to get as much tinsel (and possibly shiny glittery beads on a string) from poundland??

Should I invest more to make it perfect for DD?

Whaddya mean, this is rapidly becoming the best Christmas thread ever!

Sometimes I wish there was a 'thumbs up' button. This thread is ace.

Loving the typo HonetDragon :)

Ok banker ....

Tell me, have you ever heard of netmums?

tanya It was a genuine question/worry but I apologise for lowering the tone of the christmas section; which I love.

I'm not being a sarcastic prick btw :)

I'VE RUINED CHRISTMAS

No... up until a few weeks ago I was happily living in the real world. Im not into bitching with strangers so ill leave you all to it.

And this is why we can't have nice things...

WorldPeace Those ball pits are death traps!! DD had hers for all of two months then I took it straight to FARRA

You ruined christmas when you bypassed Harrods and stepped into cunting poundland.
Bye bye Christmas, bye bye!

BOF

All I know about tinsel and small girls is they like playing with it. I have some pictures of my two in sparkly Disney dresses wrapped in and lying amongst the house tinsel supply.

Therefore pound land tinsel is absolutely the way to go.

NOOOOOOOO take me back Christmas.. --

I love you--

Oh fucking balls, epic fail

I love you

Christmas that is, not you cunts

Best. Christmas. Thread. Ever.

My children go for quantity over quality each time. Our tree is one I bought from woolies in 96 covered in 10 tonnes of sparkly shit from ASDA.

StarBall I now have visions of my DD in her (new for christmas) Princess outfits pulling it all off the tree to wear and decorate the cat

This is the sort of Christmas thread I like.

Poundland do fucking fantastic Christmas tat.

Wilkos is the place though, great Christmas squirrels in there last year.

I had loads of ASDA shit, but it a) got destroyed by her last year and b) reminds me of the cunt her dad

Are you really leaving us all to it? It's just that you said you were before and yet...

This is the funniest thread I have ever seen on Mumsnet!!

Oh yes, Wilkos do amazing stuff, we have a slightly pissed looking silver reindeer made of wire, cost about a quid and has lasted years.

I love him.

Ok I will take you back but do it again and you're fucked.
Lots of love
Christmas

This is the best Christmas thread. EVAH.

Where can I find Wilko!? I think the closest one to me is over an hour on the bus!
If I sit on that stinking shit heap for an hour and it's shite I'll start a new thread in here starting with CUNTS
