The shopping trip involved buying several of these for Lauren
Several pairs of these ~ for Lauren also..........
And a few of these too......for lauren!!
Dan needed a couple of pairs of these.......
and several of these!!!
The children are not back at school for another few weeks yet, but I just wanted all their uniforms sorted out and done ~ last year I left it until the last minute and struggled to get it all!!
We had a bit of a uniform bonanza as all the shops (and supermarkets) seem to be trying to outdo each other by having the cheapest uniforms (no, I am not complaining!!), so I managed to get them twice the amount they needed ~ for no extra money!! I like to get them new uniform for the start of a new term ~ it is just something that I have always done. They have school fleeces and sweatshirts with the school logo on, which I had already bought from the school ~ so all that I need to get now is their shoes and they are done (shoes always work out expensive ~ so I have saved that joy for after payday!!!)
I had an enquiry today from a couple who would like me to childmind for their baby ~ so that is great ~ I have had a free space for a couple of months, so it is always good to fill them up again!!
Mind you ~ the way my children keep growing and needing new clothes (ha ha !!) ~ I think I already know where the extra money will be going!!!!!!
PS ~ I have posted on look behind my smile ~ for those of you who have access to that blog!! Look forward to seeing you there! XXXX

Hi Dani ~ I hadn't thought of that ha ha ~ yippeeee!!! Less ironing ~ that can only be a good thing!
love and hugs to you! XXXXXXX
You have got love those good shopping deals! Sure wish all the schools here would have uniforms too. Congrats on getting another client too!
Hilarious comment you left me :)
I think it is great that you are done and have them ready to go and learn. Good buy too. That is always a nice surprise. Go and buy you something now. :)
Thanks Donna! I think that it is a great idea that the children wear uniforms over here ~ it is quite smart and all the children look the same, so there is no teasing about childrens clothing etc!!
love and hugs to you XXXX
Hi Jan ~ I know ~ what am I like ha ha !!
I very rarely have a good splurge on me ~ maybe I should treat myself more often!!
love and hugs XXXX
PS Thanks for visiting XXX
I think you are smart getting an early start. I did pretty good this year by getting clothes and shoes and supplies bought a couple weeks ago - my kids go back to school on Monday.
See you soon - Kellan
Boy, I use to have to wear uniforms....thanks for the memory sweetie!!hughugs
I love a good bargain!!
I don't even want to think about school clothes. Thankfully Emily is only in preschool and can wear shorts and capris the first few weeks while it is still warm. Then I think I'll go hit the outlets and see what kind of deals we can find.
Here in the states there aren't many schools that have the children wear uniforms. But I have often thought this would be a good idea for more schools to do this.
Sounds like you are a good shopper.
wbscrauuHow good is that!!! it so good to get the uniforms out of the way!!! I loved the previous post, how true it is LOL!!
love,

I hate having to spend so much on the uniforms! Especially shoes! It wouldn't be that bad if they actually got the whole year out of them :)
