Christmas 2024

[JSquared]

It's very handy. I have a DD setup for like £20 a month so don't hugely notice it and then get my vouchers sent October/November each year.
Shame I can't nudge my referral link but lists my name

I may start that but for next year.
I am struggling not being organised in terms of buying but I have lists what to buy people at least.

I work in a bank and sadly this happens all the time, report to your bank, if a debit card was used they will tell you to wait 15 days incase anything turns up, if a credit card was used it’s 30 days, so I would call them sooner rather than later within that 15 day period

Ohh great thanks it’s just over 15 days I think so I’ll give them a call. It was a debit card and they told me I had to wait 30days but that was before they said they’d refund me and cancelled it

Which Vlogmases do people recommend?

I like Zoe Sugg around (2017 -2019) and Fashion Mumblr (2022)

I do and I got fewer than ever this year! I’m really tempted to just stop but then they are the only contact I have with some folk .

Same here. I've started feeling guilty for sending them. Actually started feeling like I'm being abusive sending them!
I decided to wait and see who sent me one this year. I was well down on last year. Not sure if it's the cost of stamps or that people are generally fed up.
I was thinking next year of sending a few eCards. I started doing it for a few people's birthdays and they seemed to latch onto this straight away with no age bar.
I do ask people when I remember if they still would like to do cards, as I don't want to pressurize them, but generally I get no answer.

Please tell me that you have 10 because of Sleepless in Seattle!

I actually don’t I just like even numbers so 10 sounded good

Has anyone seen any Christmas outings advertised yet especially east Anglia or even London area. Daughter is desperate to see Disney on ice again but nothing advertised yet and I thought that would be out by now if they were doing it.

Thanks I’m going to book tickets for my sisters.

Not sure how hard into the Christmas experience you want to go, but there’s something called Lapland UK too. Tickets went on sale a few months back so not sure if they’ll still be available - but you might get lucky on the resale market closer to the time where people realise they can’t attend?

Just preordered an advent calendar for my husband. He looks sweets and this is one that has different sweets behind each window. He gets frustrated with the haribo one as most of them are the same.

That sounds fab! Do you have a link?

Where do you find the best places to get Christmas stuff around this time of year? I’ve tried eBay but there’s just so much tat it’s hard to find anything decent!

 

[coconochanel]

Has anyone played the Christmas Monopoly game and is it worth the money?

My benefit is so I can't touch it. If in a savings I'd be dipping in for other shiz whereas with Park, I can't lol

Hannah123 was talking about Regular Saver accounts I think, so if you withdraw before the end you lose interest.
