    Over the weekend. In Christy's in Killarney bought a few bags of Cinnamon Spice. I just love that spicy aroma around the house.

    Best purchase you'll make this year. I was delighted with mine especially as last year our new tree was so big there was no room to crawl underneath it or behind it :D

    Penny's, Dunnes and Michael Guineys are your best bets.

    Got a set of Julia Donaldson books for our little girl & a set of "the worst witch" books for both of our 7 year old nieces! Good deals on the bookpeople but rage, the website won't give me free delivery even though I'm shipping to Newry. Guy from Customer Service rang me and told me to send him a mail & he'll refund me. He was very nice! Another two off the list now!
