THE SHOPPING THREAD :-)

Jamberie you are correct, they are more magazines. Great excuse, thanks.

I say a new mantra.  ' I do not want or need anymore recipe books '. It doesn't seem to work.
DD and I bought one each of these. I have made a lovely light fruit cake from one and the flavour is lovely.

They look like magazines to me, so your mantra might be working Cookie 

Isn't it good to have young minds on the forum. Of course it's a magazine, definitely not a book.

I have been collecting these retro melamine BBQ plates over a few years now....plate by plate, usually from eBay.



....just picked up # 7.
They have a lovely pink border, and I believe they're originally made in Melbourne 
.....they always get used.

Definalty buying 2 more utes, just trying to get the price down on the landcruiser.

Have 2 quotes, so see if they will price match here, or I go Cairns and get it.

was disappointed that WW has decided to no longer sell my favourite brand of eucalyptus oil - although their prime competition still carries it - I use the stuff for just about everything!  Then found that the company was selling online . . .

Bought this package   http://www.fgb.com.au/shop/bosistos-specials/bosistos-eucalyptus-bundle-euc5-detail   at a purported saving of  $37.50  and couldn't resist some their lavender range.  This will last me ages!

So saved quite a bit on the sales, had free shipping and a 10% discount added for registering with them -  very happy with them!  It was a fair amount to outlay at first, but I figured over time it would be worth it . .

Cute plates Maddy. 

A pic of our new bus....

Nice one Astarra.

I just bought a new 4x4 Ranger.

 Hope to buy a landcruiser by 2morow too.

[Mama Fergie]

Lovely Astarra and will fit all the family  

I have DD's Volkswagen multivan highline today as i have the kids and it too is like a bus

looks great astarra funny when your driving a people mover it doesn't feel like it and I quite often forget until I walk back to the car and realise its a bus )

Wow all these new cars and they say the motor industry is dying. LoL.

Having Aldi nearby is awesome and having Aldi nearby means there is so much stuff I didn't know I needed 

Today









The purple doesn't go with anything in my house. But it's so pretty 

And something that arrived early last week to make shopping at Aldi easier (actually works anywhere since I always forget my stupid eco bags)



I took them out for the first time today and was stopped by about 3 people asking about them.
