As the title says really.

Doing my Christmas food shop tomorrow and trying to compile a list so I have something substantial to eat other than quality streets. My brain has stopped working so I'm asking you guys to do it for me 😂

More wine!
those bake in the oven bread rolls are useful as they have a long BB4 date and you can use for breakfast with jam/Nutella or for lunches with soup or leftover cold meat etc. and they freeze ok if you don’t use them up.

tin foil and cling film
tissues
paracetamol and lemsip

Only if it's Aldi get the festive snack mix, it's addictive

Probably a mix of Tesco, Sainsbury's and some bits from M&S! Ooo that sounds good, is it like a Bombay mix style thing?
