dare 1,103 Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Dont mean anything to me at my age, id make a big deal of it all when i got kids though. Its lovely having a mum who works in a butchers though i tell ya lol. Were eating turkey days later we get that much. Mental to think some people get in debt over xmas though. Just a day over hyped by shops really aint it. Must be a sad time when your on your own aswell. Will buy aload of clothes come january sales though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
