Re: christmas shopping
 
I only have to get 5 big prezzies and 7 little stocking fillers.
I always give cash for the 5 big ones.

I was recently given £20 in High St vouchers by Fraser Eagle
I was chauffered to their Padiham offices to join a 'focus group' to give my opinion on their new brochure and tours - free butties and £20 vouchers :D
The vouchers have been spent on 4 of the stocking fillers - so only 3 little prezzies left to buy

Bought a few things, now i've stopped nowhere to put them. House in a tip we've got builders in and they'll probably be in for a while.

Is it the shop tree or a sample of what they have for sale? Can't say I've noticed any in the Accy store.
