I wish people would stop making nasty comments about being cheap skates especially for buying a £2 box of chocolates which have been reduced from £6 , I have , thanks to hot UK deals gone into town today and bought a box of these and put them away for my daughter's birthday, I'm sure she will love them.
FWIW I earn £39 a week cleaning toilets on a Monday Wednesday and Friday night and out of that money I have to dress myself ,clothes ,shoes, toiletries ,makeup ,glasses ,the dentist and I have three children I do their Christmas and birthday presents out of it ,also my husband's birthday, Father's Day ,Valentine's Day and wedding anniversary, my husband's wages pays the bills and food.

On the plus side in less than 2 years we will have completely paid off our mortgage 4 years early, do not owe anybody a penny of debt, no overdrafts, no store cards, no credit card bills.
You do not have to spend a fortune to celebrate special occasions, that box of chocolates will not be the only thing that my daughter gets, but she isn't spoilt, the other presents I have got for her birthday are the Soap And Glory set from Boots when they went down to half-price after Christmas, another deal that was posted on this website which was Tresor in Love perfume for £20, plus a silver and tanzanite bracelet I bought in the Argos clearance section of jewellery reduced from £70 to £16 and its beautiful.
I must also be a mug as another poster suggested, as I also bought the Costa mug mentioned by another poster as a put away for fathers day present.

Can all the people who are sneering at a £2 box of chocolates as presents please zip their gobs shut as some of us have to be very careful with our money

totally on your side, they're not a £2 box of chocs, they're still the £6 box that happens to have been reduced. I keep an eye out all year for bargains, with an eye to gifts for people for xmas, and they go in a cupboard so I don't have to find too much extra cash in December. I've often done half my xmas shopping in the sales after xmas the year before! We're all on this site to save money after all!

Argos have these in the sale quite often,what happened to Thorntons,they can hardly be seen as a quality brand any longer as they sold in so many cut price stores.

Mother's Day sorted.
