My daughter's school made the announcment today over the local radio that they've closed cos the pipes have burst.
So I've had to take her in to town with me omg what an experience she's conned me out of alsorts lol.
I only went to get some money from the bank and buy some new fleeces to go over the hutches at night and I've ended up buying a bag of sweets, some new wellies, new slippers, a big rodent arm chair (which I didn't even know the curtain shop sold, a subway meal.

Although the arm chair is pretty cool, they did a bed too but it wasn't as cute.
She wants the chair to go in with the girls so they can snuggle up together, I've seen one on here already (I think it was Mrs Wilsoncroft).
 
Just seven lol
She doesn't really ask for a lot (unlike her older sister who thinks money grows on trees) so I don't mind spoiling her as it doesn't happen very often and with her skin illness so bad at the moment the guinea pigs are one of the only things that cheer her up so I find it quite sweet that she wants to buy things for them instead of herself.
Although I'm not overly sure what the girls will think of GIANT armchair.
 
Aww, sounds like a lovely day out for you both then, even if your purse is a little lighter. My sister atm is having trouble with money due to some bank charges coming out the only pay she has till Christmas and my youngest nephew asked very politely for a ipod nano lol. She was like, ahhh how am I meant to get that? I honestly wish I had a bit more cash myself, could go halves with my mom or something for him, but then what would the bigger nephew get?! lol
 
I think it's been a hard year for everyone :( luckily I've managed to save all year so I could get my presents done early although I have had to put some stuff on my cards (the shed was an expense I didn't account for but the piggies needed to keep warmer) so I'll pay for that when it's due.
It's horrible when your kids tell you that they want this that and the other and you don't have the money, I suppose in a way I'm quite lucky with my parents as they help out a lot they shouldn't as they're my kids but they do and I'm really grateful.
