Are the current tubs in the supermarkets smaller than last year? They look the same to me, not that I've picked any up yet.
Anyway, we organised the santa shop over the weekend, ordered online from Smyths & already got a call this morning before we left looking to organise delivery, so thats the main bit out of the way. Just to pick up a few small stocking fillers for them now & then move on to the extended family list which is restricted to our one another, our parents & nephews.
That is super organised!
The oldest Elf saw a bike she liked over the weekend so think that's the first big present organised.
Will have to get a wiggle on to catch up some on here

We do the same every year. Got caught badly when they were younger & left it until closer to christmas & couldnt get the one thing our little lady really wanted, the look of disappointment on her face christmas morning when she realised she wasnt getting what she has asked santa had me determined that wouldnt happen again. So we tend to get their santa list early, they're used to it & so far havent changed their minds on anything big enough to matter."I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year" - Charles Dickens

Quality Street downsized again for Christmas this year - from 720g to 650g – with more chocolates and fewer toffees

I'm actually devastated by this. Quality Street are my favourite.
They need to stop with the shrinking and removal of sweets.0 -

I just posted the same article in the chat thread. I'm actually devastated about the toffee deluxe - it's my favourite, along with the fudge. Next, they'll go the route of Roses with the massive wrappers 0 -

Ditto.
I love the toffee's, & fudge, its what sets Quality Street apart from the others, roses, heroes etc. be a real shame to see them change that dynamic as it works so well."I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year" - Charles Dickens

LOL sorry nothing in particular just a good site with loads to offer, you know the stuff you dont need but buy anyways that sort of stuff... man i'm awful at explaining myself:o
If I'm being honest I find shops change from year to year. I know I liked The Range a few years ago.
Just go onto websites and type in Christmas and see what comes up.
You may also find nice things in local gift shops or places like Carraig Donn.
I would hold out a while yet because special offers often appear in November. Especially with places like Woodies.0 -
