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.

No presents yet but just ordered all the Xmas food for collection on 24th from Sainsburys - normally get from butchers or go to restaurant but worried will be in lockdown. Get a free bottle of prosecco and DS will be very happy with the 36 pigs in blankets and the cat with the big chicken (aka turkey).
