Don't have Waitrose here in Holland, but I'm following a bunch of Christmas countdown accounts on Facebook and Instagram. Just 110 days till Christmas! Time to get the shopping done!!! (And the keto-snacks sorted ).

:shy: I already have 2 Christmas presents, and the wrapping paper. Just need the sticky gift tags but shops here havent got them yet.

Hubby was most disgruntled last week when we popped out for food - they were advertising Christmas meals in August :meh:

ooh mince pies - saw a fella in Tesco with some in his trolley yesterday. Hubby wouldnt let me go back and get some - reckoned I'd had too much of a good thing on holiday lol (but I only had a teacake on my birthday and some small cake slices as hubby was too mean to buy me lunch hee hee)

ooh Christmas things. I know the Disney store have some lovely tree ornaments but I dont think I will buy any this year whilst we have a young one running around. She may break them and then I'd have to cry (real tears) as I think of how much they cost me compared to a run of the mill shop.

I can remember my other granddaughter breaking the baubles I'd had from my grandmother's tree. That was some serious tears lol

Noticed that the Harrods outlet at Gatwick airport had some expensive baubles.....

I ordered a new Christmas tree and 2018 ornament last month because last year I waited too long and had to make my own 2017 ornament. I got a good price on the tree at Amazon with free shipping!

I've already seen some TV ads for Christmas trees. Much too early in my opinion, but like others I have already started thinking about Christmas shopping. This year I plan to order presents online and have them shipped rather than try to do my own shopping and wrapping. Not as much fun doing it all online -- can't imagine what's wrong with me. Age, maybe? :)
