What Christmas items can’t you resist buying each year? 👠👠

[SaraHoliday]

What can't you resist at Christmas?

For me it's:

Glass Snow Globes

Wrapping Paper (my stash of gift wrap could last for 4 years already!)

Christmas Party dresses

My daughters and I each choose a new decoration for the tree.
I buy Shloer and J2Os, we never have it at any other time of year.
I get lots of Toffifee as these remind me of being a kid.
Oh and also wensleydale with cranberries for just me!

M&s chocolate coins
After eights
Waitrose Xmas cake bar
Tesco Xmas pud
More wrapping paper( my stash should see me out but I still buy more )
Xmas cards( ditto )
Selection boxes( has to be galaxy)

They are. They’re basically very prawn cocktaily prawn cocktail crisps. And very crunchy.

We go to bents garden center around Christmas every year! My mum buys the grandchildren a decoration for the tree each of there choice! Ive 5 children and lots of different decorations but we love going...this year I want a new tree from Bents!

I could live on after eights .

😆 I think they are talking about Advocate not actual custard 😆

Lindt reindeer and Lindor truffle balls. Stilton from a real cheese shop. £££ but it does taste better than supermarket plastic wrapped. Once a year.

DH can't resist buying Christmas crackers. I think they are a horrible waste of money and landfill but he just comes back with a packet every year beaming that he got a vast box of toilet roll inner tubes wrapped in paper with a scrappy gift in no one wants in them, for £7.99 not the listed price of £15.99.

Oh those little squares of minty dark chocolate.goodness.
I'm old enough to remember when the after8 filled the envelope they came in.

Ferrero Rocher
Nicely flavoured Gin
Quality Street chocolates
A creamy nice smelling daily body wash (Dove ones work)

I like to dip mine in coffee! 😂

I liked the tiny boxes of 5 you could buy! 😂

Ecclefechan tarts and the Aldi stollen.

This confuses me so much. I’d like to try it but can’t have coffee after 12pm and they’re after dinner mints.

Go on! Just a dip! 😂

I keep mine in the fridge and i like to sandwich 2 or 3 together.
Everyone in my house loves them but war breaks out when what appears to be a relatively full box is just empty wrappers !

Pigs in blankets flavour crisps and novelty varieties of Christmas puddings. And I usually find something I like among the Christmas-themed activewear.

A real tree that's inappropriately large for the space.

I can't resist when I'm tree shopping. I look at some and think that's looks tiny so I go bigger and get it home and unleash it and....oh no...done it again!
🙄

Also guilty of leaving said wrapper in the box.

Jaffa cake selection box
Cheese balls
Matchmakers

Me-Bendicks bittermints. I could mainline them, but they are strictly rationed. I have one left from.a box of two from last year.
Dh- crackers for cheese. Now limited to one of the Carrs boxes, but if not monitored he will buy a box each shop from October to Christmas eve.

Baileys
Whipped cream for hot chocolates
Tofifee
Those tubs of twiglets
Tin of chocs

Never buy or eat any of these at any other time!

A fancy candle for the sitting room - usually white company. Something really Christmassy.

And my 3 kids choose a new Xmas bauble each every Christmas from our local garden centre.

Chocolate log. I don't actually eat that much cake. DH doesn't eat it. I have a couple of slices and really enjoy it and then don't get around to eating the rest - possibly because Im busy stuffing my face with Roses and Quality Street.

Treeslet cheeselets.

After Eight fans, saw a TikTok earlier when she put a couple of them on hot toast! Not a Nutella fan but I actually did think ‘that sounds quite good’
White company winter candle for me. Stupid price really but nothing else ever hits quite right.

Many, many bags of coffee quality street from John Lewis.
Lots of cheese and chutney combos
Baileys for my hot chocolates
A good bottle of champagne to open when we decorate the tree.
