I just ordered a new clock . We had one that tells the day and date as well as the time ( its helps OH keep track) . But the date part broke recently I found a nice one today with 30% discount...

You can get some real bargains on xmas day online. My stepson found us a really cheap large screen tv a few years back.

I bought a price reduced aeroplane for my flight simulator yesterday. One I had been looking at, hoping it would be in a sale sometime.
The nasty one coming up though, just at New Year, is the TV license.
I'm going to see what I can find with the post Christmas sales going on around here.
I did rubbish. I got my son a bath basketball game. It was a £1.50 and will be a cool stocking filler. I also got a 6 packets of malteser reindeers. They were 20p. They will be spread around the kids and their partners.

I also tried on an LBD. It was not how I want to look. Oh, and a pair of gold strappy heels, they were ok, but ok is not enough to loosen the purse strings.

Cherry, are you in the market for a new LBD and shoes? I go through that every year to the point that I have more than I need but that doesn't stop me.

I found a couple of Boxing Day sale items already popping up on Amazon on the 24th, so I'm getting a sandwich maker (not very expensive, but just as I remember having growing up) and a reading lamp for my bedroom. I also tossed in a string of 200 LED lights for my parents' Christmas tree while the price is decent. Hopefully Dad won't be too stubborn to use them - he needed four sets when we were decorating this time, because the first two didn't work properly!
I'm still trying to decide when to buy my own sets of Christmas lights to get just the right amount for decorating the interior of our house "my way"... (The middle guy thinks it's too much lights right now with new and old sets being used. I think that's akin to saying "bah humbug," hee hee.) And I almost always have clothes waiting in my Amazon cart for when it's a good time to buy for me, so I might start on that soon - I think it may slow down, though, if I buy patterned shirts because all of my solid-colour shirts seem to get grease/food stains so easily! (Either different material for patterned that washes out best, or the "flaws" don't show on the patterned ones?)
I didn't get any gift cards from family and friends yet, but if I do, it wouldn't be hard to spend online if I can get books or videos - I have long lists of titles I'd like, and I generally wait for extra spending money or a discount rather than buying immediately on release...
I bought tyre levers that OH decided he needed yesterday evening..
For myself I made a photo calendar..
I must say I was very impressed at how much better I got the tyres off my bicycle with proper levers. Spoons just don't cut it really.
I did try spoons once but you have it right, they don't. Years ago I got a set of plastic ones. I didn't expect them to last more than five minutes but amazingly they are still intact even though they have been used quite a few times.
I also tried on an LBD. It was not how I want to look. Oh, and a pair of gold strappy heels, they were ok, but ok is not enough to loosen the purse strings.
Cherry, are you in the market for a new LBD and shoes? I go through that every year to the point that I have more than I need but that doesn't stop me.
If I see an lbd I particularly like I will buy it, but I don't tend to. I find they are nice for going out, but only if there is plenty of light. I am more of a dance hall girl, and lbd's tend to go missing on the dance floor.
I need another pair of gold shoes, as my old ones are getting past the point of being comfortable enough to dance in. They are stilettoes, so not ideal for dancing. Boogieing needs a stronger heel. Ideally a wedge imo. The trouble I have is all my wedges are really too grippy, and that is the last thing you need on a dance floor.

Interesting. I never thought of my black dresses in that way but I see your point. But thats not going to stop me from buying them. Oh, stilettos and dancing. that a tough combination for sure. leave that to the professionals. I agree, wedges are a bit "sticky" so what are we to do? Ummm.. a problem that needs to be worked out.

I will probably go down the wedges route, just make sure the soles are more plasticky than rubbery.

I did my mid week shop yesterday. Along with the groceries I got a T shirt top in the sales. Not super exciting but there wasn't anything else I fancied.
