Sainsbury’s shop coming tomorrow and have until tonight to update.

Up until this morning all I’d added was Prosecco, smoked salmon and quality street but have now been at it for a couple of hours trying to remember all the necessities as well as the treats!

I’m feeling very flustered as normally it’s my husband that does it but he isn’t back until Christmas Eve late afternoon...

What will I have forgotten...?

Pigs in blankets and you are good whatever else you forget. Maybe turkey too but that's less important

Aponcetasticchristmastoall · 22/12/2020 20:19

Haha I forgot the pigs in blankets were one of the things I secured my basket with...

Priorities!!!

Double check your condiments. I missed off mustard as I didn't realise it was so low.

Extra milk and bread.

RealisticSketch · 22/12/2020 20:33

Crackers, the edible kind and the banging kind

RealisticSketch · 22/12/2020 20:33

Grapes to go with the brie

Aponcetasticchristmastoall · 22/12/2020 20:33

Napkins?!

Kind blown, though we were going to go without...

Thanks @TodgerStrunk

Mine are probably too random to be helpful, but I forgot:

Sellotape
Peanut butter
Cream cheese
Bagels
Ready made gravy which use as a base
Apples

I did remember a lot, but forgot lot too! Confused

BrieAndChilli · 22/12/2020 20:34

You need to walk through all your meals.
So what will you have for breakfast/lunch/tea on all the days your shop is catering for.
Then what drinks do you want? Necessaries like washing up liquid, foils, soap, nappies, loo roll etc etc
Tea/coffee
Condiments

Aponcetasticchristmastoall · 22/12/2020 20:35

@Anawi a Bramley apple for the stuffing...

Thank you.

Flour,
Oil (also goose fat, duck fat or whatever) matches

FizzyPink · 22/12/2020 20:36

I forgot all the basic usual stuff like bread and milk. Way too focused on all the Christmas snacks I wanted Blush

Aponcetasticchristmastoall · 22/12/2020 20:37

@ TheOtherMaryBerry I had that added and then deleted when my wee mind caught up that we were having Goose this year!!!

I'm not sure why I opened this thread as my shop was delivered this morning. So far I have everything pp have suggested, except nuts which we won't eat, tonic that we won't drink and sellotape that we have plenty of already. I'm feeling smug but waiting for someone to mention something I have forgotten Xmas Grin

Parbor · 22/12/2020 20:39

I forgot apples, cheddar cheese (got a lot of other cheese though) and something to eat tomorrow. Also didn’t get enough eggs

Aponcetasticchristmastoall · 22/12/2020 20:39

@Fruitteatime that made me giggle!!
