I think I'm getting a social conscience of some kind

[Alison]

I often think we struggle a bit, especially there being 5 of us, 6 when my eldest is home.

Today the Tesco's order arrived, we had taken advantage of their £75 off your exmas shopping deal, and had £24 of clubcard vouchers and a few ecoupons too so eventually we got £101.66 off, Dom had also for this week increased the amount I could spend.

So I'm putting the stuff away and thought even in England there are people out there that can only dream of stocking there cupboards this full, makes me feel embarrassed for all the times I've complained about money

I suddenly feel a very VERY lucky person

You can fill a trolley at our local B&M for 35 quid.. But you wouldn't want to eat any of it!

If you want to salve your conscience; I always buy diesel at our local Sainsbury's, as it's cheap, today I was there at 9.30 am and popped into the shop itself, something I rarely do, as I was hoping to pick up a DVD as a Chrissy present.

I could not believe the number of heaving trolleys I saw being pushed around the store. I cannot believe the majority of these people are actually entertaining the entire Household Cavalry over Christmas, but from the amount of food and drink being bought you would have thought they were.

Unless the Tesco wagon was filled to the brim with only the goods you had ordered, then you really don't have a patch on some of the folks I saw today.

Isn't 4 kids and 3 adults just as bad, it would be four kids but the 1st is an adult now, I'm still 27 though honest .

I've bought nothing for Xmas foodwise. Well apart from some Minstrels in a box. Asked the guy in Sainsburys and he made them sound like some sort of truffle thing. They were Minstrels in a box.

How to charge £1 for Minstrels? Put them in a box. Fly bastards.
