Bargin Pressies

[emi-lou]

Ok so this year is very tight for me as stupid work deducted 6 days pay for me, which you will have to agree was lovley of them so was getting all deprest what to get people for christmas as really couldn't afford a lot wel.........

This lunch time I popped to Matalan and OMG they have some great stuff accessories, slipper sox etc and quite resonable too... I have managed to spend about £5 on each of my step sisters and I know that they wont be dissapointed as they love the girly stuff :)

Any one else know of any great places to go to get xmas pressies??

[Martz]

Oooh I havent been to Matalan for xmas stuff yet, will have to have a lok in there for bits n bobs to top up my daughters pressies as she's too big for toys now but ino her girlie things! xx

I have done a lot of my xmas shopping online, saved a fortune by shopping on amazon and play etc and bought loadsa bits off ebay (all new lol) xxx

Yeah Ebay and Amazon are really good for cheap prezzies.
Oooh I will have to look in Matalan coz its a tight month for me aswell :( x x x

Matalan is great! Pea****s is good too, y'know for little bits like pyjamas and handbags and stuff like that. I normally get my sister clothes from Pea****s or Primark at Crimbo. Plus in Primark they have all the nice smelly body lotions and makeup stuff for £1 so I normally say "Right i'll spend £25 on my sister in here" and come out with looooads!!

I've got mosta my stuff from Play and Amazon. On some of the DVD's and books I've ordered I've saved myself about a fiver on each thing compared to HMV and places like that. I've got my OH some stuff from Ebay too - not second hand don't worry :p

oooh sounds good. i've bought a few from Avon and Boots. Boots are doing 3 for 2 on gifts atm, i got 3 pressies for £30, and one was a big sanctuary set, my mum loves it so she'll be pleased. i've been on Ebay too, i've been lazy and done most online so far xxx
