I knew there was a reason finishing early never works, more clothes, some posh pens, Xbox stuff, a bottle of jd for family member. can't even stay in the house to stop it because of the internet Grin.

thanks twolittledarlings, I will try Debenhams, it could just be the perfect one!

The Percy pigs socks were in our Simply Food M&S and it was therefore meant to be that I twitched.

Twitched in Sainsbury, bought the new David Walliams book, new DOAWK book, Lego joker clock and was pretty good and bought Christmas cards for next year as they have 66% off.

Classic blue Lego spaceman and Sun Kil Moon album for DH's stocking.

2 x disney infinity figures and 3 x annuals. All i really needed was a tube of pink smarties

I bought two fleece bed covers (Primark £10 each) to go on the beds for visitors this Christmas.

Rainicorn · 17/12/2014 15:00

Ok. Nobody is to let me near the shops except for food now please. Today I've bought

Hulk pyjamas
Bongos

I finally found cute tree decorations for the DCs (tradition to get one each on Xmas eve to hang before they go to bed) and it was 3for2 so I chose myself a sloth in a Santa hat :o but that doesn't count as twitching does it?

WhispersOfWickedness · 17/12/2014 15:58

My plan failed, twitched again today, so back to plan A with which presents are joint presents BlushGrin

Hmmm .....

Not TOO bad today. I bought 2 enormous gift bags for transporting presents on Christmas Eve so kids won't see them and a 6 pack of fish n chip snacks for ds's stocking.

However also bought silly string for an elf on the shelf escapade and spent £12 on bloody extortionate stamps.

TarnishdWithAshAndSootgremlin · 17/12/2014 18:21

Duplo icecreams....because...er... Blush

TwoNoisyBoys · 17/12/2014 18:49

I twitched today ?? reading another thread, I discovered that the Sklyanders Trap Team starter set I bought a month ago (joint present for the two noisy boys!) will actually be a bit rubbish unless I buy extra traps and figures. Sigh. I should bloody know this, I've bought every other sodding Skylanders set since they were released and it's the same every year!

Then I discovered ExH is buying Xbox live for DS2. Which means he can finally have the game he's been longing for since his birthday 6 months ago......(you can see where this is going, can't you!)

Then DS1 announces that he REALLY hopes he's getting the Mario Amiibo, because it will be GREAT to be able to use it if he gets the Super Mario Smash Bros game he's hoping for....(game purchased a month ago).

Then DP asks for last minute ideas on what he can buy the boys.........

The result? In total, about £100 worth of reservations to pick up at Argos tomorrow.

NowBringUsSomeFuzzpiggyPudding · 17/12/2014 19:00

I'm intrigued by the amiibo, what is it exactly? (Completely irrelevant to me as we don't even have an xbox, but I'm nosy and couldn't figure it out on amazon)

glidingpig · 17/12/2014 19:02

Went for coffee with my friend this morning and we both twitched our way round the shops after - got DD bubble bath, a chocolate orange plus one for myself and some MLP hair crap. Not allowed to touch my wallet again until January.

NowBringUsSomeFuzzpiggyPudding · 17/12/2014 20:14

DH's twitch was really funny. A tesco set of chocolate, marshmallows and snowball beanbags. WTF!

SouthernOne · 17/12/2014 20:39

I'M DONE, I TELL YA, I'M DONE

Ha, today's twitch was a dress for DD1 and a xbox 360 game for DH

Now I need to buy something for DD2 to balance the amount spent lol

I need to stop buying:)

Taffeta · 17/12/2014 20:58

Bloody Next and their one day delivery.

I'm an Adidas top down that DS really doesn't need.

nickdrakeslovechild · 17/12/2014 20:59

I have a beautiful wooden dolls house, 3 different sylvinanian buildings so why am I twitching over the playmobil hotel??

LucilleBluth · 17/12/2014 20:59

I twitched a Kindle for DS1..... He has a few things, he's 13 so his pile looked tiny compared to his four yo sis! Bloody hell, I was doing so well.

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 17/12/2014 21:15

I twitched on 4 puzzles for the dses. Horrible histories and horrible science, they feel almost educational so I'm ignoring the fact they were £9 each.

I also bought more crap for their stockings because I panicked I hadn't got enough and now it seems I have too much and most of it isn't stocking sized anywayXmas Hmm

OhHolyChildOfGallifrey · 17/12/2014 21:30

Bloody Mr Tumble bag. I'm hiding the laptop and disabling the internet in my phone.

Yesterday was bad. Lindt bears, Lindt reindeers, more Play Doh, t shirts, gloves and dinosaurs. All for DS's. This was after a conversation with my DM about how I feel guilty that they're spoiled this year.
