You all know the one: Your Husband / Boyfriend On a mission Wandering around the lingerie / shoe department with fear in their eyes and a look of desperation and panic. They pick up a size 8 red and black basque and look sheepishly at the nearest passing female for comparison. They select a size 3 knee high patent boot and try to make it look like it will go over the knee. When they are approached by a predatory sales advisor asking if they need assistance, they breath a sigh of relief and explain they are looking for something for their better half, to wear to take the 4 kids to and from school. They pay top dollar, and leave knowing (hoping) they got it right this year, and proud that they did it all by themselves! We love these shoppers, pound signs roll in our eye sockets, the Cosmetic girls flirt madly hoping they can sell the dearest perfume by offering to gift wrap it, it's a tough job, but someone has to do it lol Have a great last shopping Saturday before Christmas guys!!!!

Oh and remember, it's Fiancee for a girl, Wife cards sell out before 5pm on Christmas Eve and a pretty bow covers a multitude of misdemeanors

Have a lovely day everyone

Morning bensmum , good luck battling the supermarket hun . I did my xmas shop , apart from fresh stuff Tuesday , yesterday with my son .
I've just opened and checked my Amazon parcel that I picked up from the post depot yesterday . I'm so glad I checked it as the toy doesn't work ! I'm very disappointed , my first ever buy from Amazon and they send me a dead sheep .
xxxxx
you should have got that sheep i suggested BM !
oh-hello bensma
Lol beejay :-D
Does anyone know how to return a faulty item to Amazon please ?
Aww - shame bigmamma, Amazon is usually pretty good too. have you tried anywhere else like Play.com or Firebox? You sjould still have time.
Glad to hear you're struggling on beejay - you're such a brave lad! :-)
thank you bensma for your kind and genuine thots
yup- beejay the brave- i like it !
Just looked on the Amazon site and filed out the necessary info for returning it , and now there's a page to print out with a form for inside the box , and a label to stick on for return postage . x
Hope you manage to get it sorted bigmamma. I'm off now to sort out Tesco! See you all later

Life is not being kind to me at the moment. I had my bag stolen the other day with all my keys in it and purse cards etc.
Cost a fortune to have house locks changed.
