Hi Sue

Yep..I'm a shoe kinda girl too.
Need a new every day bag at the moment, so I may go into Melbourne soon and get one. Then I'll probably need a new pair of shoes to go with the new bag...its a vicious circle!!!

*sighs heavily*

Depends which shop we are in..... now, if it is T**** or similar... I just have to pass the knicker/accessories bit to get to the fruit and veg.... I pop in vests, pants, socks and knickers, plus any pretty hair bits for my two little angels.

If I happen to be passing Staples... well, paperclips. And pens. And paper. And map pins, and anything that looks cutesie, really.

B&Q? I am always, but always, drawn to the bit where you buy nuts, bolts, nails and screws by the ounce... well, I know it isn't ounces any more, but you know what I mean.

And Material... just in case I start sewing again... well, you never know, and I have just got the bedspread out that I started.... and almost finished except for the last border... during the 1st Gulf War... only the war finished, hubby came home a week early... and it has never been finished... but I have just got it out of the loft!!

Scrapbooking stuff.... and I bet it'll be cardmaking stuff now, too, cos hubby bought me two magazines for my stocking......

Oh, and cans of tomatoes...... and seeds..... and plastic pots..... and white t-shirts.......

I think I might be a bit of a hoarder, too, lolol!!

Love

Daff xxxx

I loath shopping full stop, so tend to stay away from the sales, but I have been after a new coat for ages now. So this morning hubby and I took a walk into the city part of town and as it's a Bank Holiday it was so quite. We walked into M&S and after a quick look around this coat shouted at me. I loved it and it was a nice fit as well as a nice price, but it wasn't warm enough for my play ground duties :( Hubby said take it anyway as it would be nice for the spring.
We were just going to go upstairs when another coat shouted at me :) This one was perfect, a lovely woolen, cover my bum coat :) I tried it on and fell in love.
So I now have 2 new coats for the price of one. As we left the store I gave hubby a big kiss and told him that it was my lucky day as I don't normally find anything I like. :))

A very happy Suzy xx

That sounds very nice, Suzy. Two coats - you big spender.

Apart from shoes I'm a sucker for books and scrapbooking stuff, too.

I can always find money for a bargain, Mac.......especially when they're a pair of shoes that I just have to have. Oh and the handbag to match of course:-))

Jean I love buying little hair accessories for my grand-daughter.

Don't have a weakness for shoes, don't have the feet for the shoes I would like!!
But, books, craft bits and pieces, handbags, earrings, and clothes!!! (any). I love shopping and OH likes it too!!
