Cake decorations? Wrapping paper or get somebody's present ticked off the list?

Not sure why these have turned sideways but I picked these up in dunnes tonight.
Ahhh, I loved picking up little Christmas bits for our two when they were babies, it's such a magical time.

Herself got a delivery of Yankee Candles yesterday and one was called Christmas Eve Cocoa - I nearly ate the feckin thing. Might have to but a tub of chocs to satisfy the craving it gave
They are indeed, baby number 1 due just before Christmas :)
LoughC I am thrilled for you both xx congratulations

No apologies needed, it's a testiment to how many posts we have, it's alot to catch up on some weeks.
It sums up this forum how quickly we got back on our feet compared to some of the others. Not many ( 1 or 2 tops) regulars missing now.
I do hope otnomart finds their way back for the adverts though, and the funnies... you'd miss his/her contributions.
Just bought Mr. CL the Lego Santa set...I've never spent so much on lego before but I know he'll love it and the whole family will knock great craic out of it 🤞
One person ticked off the list now 🥳
While it is expensive, it always goes down well.
Last few Christmas' have involved Granddad doing Lego with at least one or more of the grand kids. It got to the stage last year were we had to get a separate 'Lego table' set up in the front room!
Could we have some ideas on the costs of these items?
Aw that's so lovely! Creating lovely memories! I love family activities at Christmas, I always get a massive Christmas jigsaw to do too and everyone chips in at it!
The Lego set was 85 euro I think, direct from the Lego website.
Yep, I remember standing at the edge of the kitchen, glass of wine in hand, Christmas music on, still stuffed from Christmas lunch, watching my Dad and son doing Lego at the table and I honestly can't remember a time that I felt happier.
Aaaaaaw, TRS. 😍
@TRS30 thats a beautiful memory
Picked up a gift the weekend they love dark chocolate so might add some of the ferrero rocher chocolate you guys mentioned in the other thread then that’s one totally ticked off the list
with the home improvements for us I will need new tablecloth/runner for the big day
Bought a new fridge. Not a Christmas purchase per se however will be full of Christmas food 😂
Have 2 Nintendo switch pokemon games and new joy-cons to collect tomorrow for youngest. One game is for his birthday next month. Good to get a start on xmas shopping. He's going to ask for a bike for Christmas too, so need to get that sorted soon.
These are so cute - was thinking of getting them for my little niece, first Christmas this year! https://www.dunnesstores.com/p/winnie-bib---pack-of-/6462140
I got these from Arnotts online!
Love that last one.
Same here.
I think it was the cheapest at €3.
Just was the tag on the second last one, €3 is very good value. How much was shipping?
€5.
I mainly wanted the last one ams sort of ordered the others to justify the it.
First present for ELF1 sorted
Buy LEGO Friends Magical Ferris Wheel and Slide Playset 41689 at Argos.ie
Oh, that's good value! And looks fun too. 😁
Building lego kits over the Christmas holidays with the kids is something I'll miss I have to admit. The young lad, after getting a load of Star Wars lego over the years has decided he's done with it now and said he didn't want any more of it. Shame as it was something I enjoyed doing with him.
Keep it for the grand kids 😂
€4 I had to 😂
