Hello Dear Reader,
That made you sit up and take notice!
Now, before you say, that's not very romantic, I need to add that we are blissfully married and every day is full of lots of love. Now, that's out of the way I can tell you that we buy our own Christmas presents! We don't spend much at all really. In the past, when we had to pay back money we didn't buy each other anything at all. Now things are financial comfortable, we have all we need and that means we can buy each other something for Christmas and birthdays.
I buy mine for me and he buy his for him.
Sorted and that's the way we do it. It's a reverse surprise, we have no idea what we've bought but we know we'll both like it.
I have no idea what he will get himself. He only knows about my present as he reads this.
So here goes.
I saved the Tesco points from buying diesel and have £11.50 in points, I used the Club card Boost and doubled those points to buy some perfume from Tesco Direct.
I even had it delivered for free from a local store by using their click and collect service. So, effectively, it was free.
I went shopping to buy something for my parent's presents and bought my mum a necklace in Marks and Spencers. I then bought another as it was half price at £7.50.
So, I have perfume and jewellery for Christmas and only £7.50 was spent.
I have two lovely gifts that I will love and DB will be the same. I know some people like to spend lots of money on each other at Christmas time but having DB with me is the greatest gift.
Over to you, who else uses their Clubcard Boost for treats they otherwise wouldn't bother with? Take a look at the website, it's much better value than just trading the points in for groceries.
Until tomorrow,
Love Froogs xxxx
