What have you bought today?

[OohKittens]

No holiday in October half term as we usually do has meant I've started shopping so much earlier. I will admit I spend a lot on my children. We have no family/friends so buy for nobody else.
Hopefully we can get ideas from each other.

Minecraft Christmas jumper came today by Amazon for DS2 age 10, and a Christmas jigsaw for the family.

Today, some socks that look like animal paws for the DGC’s stockings plus one pair for me.

My Christmas tree!!

DS' presents are all sorted and I'm not doing anyone elses until closer to the time so I'm onto decking out my new flat instead!

Just DM to start and DSis, DH I'm going to do a hamper with nice coffee beans, some pork scratchings, good chocloate, bottle of whisky etc. I never know what to buy him but think he'll appreciate consumables!

OohKittens, I got them from Amazon, loads to choose from

Unicorn oodie
Charlie and chocolate factory cluedo
Project x game
Some tiny treats things
Lady bug / cat whatever he is called and the orange person dolls from miracaulous haha

Nothing for Christmas. Nothing much at all. A cappuccino and an ice cream.

These have all been picked up the past few weeks. The only thing I spent money on today was a £154 vets bill 😱 so no more Christmas shopping for a little while!

@TheCrow try tkmax for toki doki I bought 8 from there last week for £5.99 each.

@OohKittens that's where I got the doughnut cat from, absolute bargain! They had the mermaid unicorns in various sizes too and I was tempted to treat myself but managed to resist 😂

Ok so I've acted on impulse and bought three of the robo cats. Someone mentioned them on another thread and I can't believe I have never heard of them! Apparently they are companion pets for the elderly but I know the kids are going to love them.

A robo cat? Will it scratch my furniture to shreds and then stare at me with utter contempt, like a real cat? God, I miss my cat

Today I bought Leonidas Orangettes and marron glaces. Managed to get Cox & Cox wrapping paper after all, although I really don't need any more wrapping paper, I just couldn't resist
