I so love your ramblings! Ok...shoes! I...Hey Sarah!<br />I so love your ramblings! Ok...shoes! I very rarely buy Clarks shoes for Keiran as they are so expensive! I only ever get them in the sales! I find Next shoes VERY good quality, and at least half the price too! Maybe have a look there? And I agree, if Emily isn't complaining, don't rush out buying! After all, you wouldn't wear shoes that hurt...certainly not without complaining!<br /><br />Ok now down to you 'naughties'...hmm...I think mine were 10 times worse! I shan't fill your comments with my shame...I'll let you read about it on my blog!<br />Oh and I had to have the Promarkers too...they are indeed essential! ;)<br />Lizy xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00907611748799754433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010297157992810631.post-14887644701210581002012-03-05T17:22:02.634+00:002012-03-05T17:22:02.634+00:00My daughters shoes never last long.

She always breaks the buckles or gets a hole in the sole, I have no idea how she does it!<br />I bought some pretty ribbons and lace from a market stall a couple of weeks ago. I got about 5 meters altogether, I spent less than £3.<br /><br />Sarah-Jane xxSarah-Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15833068500024032945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010297157992810631.post-20325943677837736102012-03-05T14:50:12.549+00:002012-03-05T14:50:12.549+00:00HI Sarah....

I'm also with the Designer Diva up there, has Emily complained they're too small? If she hasn't I'd go with them until she does. The local shoe shop I go to is amazing, been going there for oooh nearly 18years lol!! If I take DQ2 in they will tell me if she can get away with her current shoes, therefore I have no worries they are just trying to make sales. But that said now she's old enough to communicate I don't take her unless she complains! I think with cheap shoes you are setting them up for more potential problems so if you can I'd always say proper fitted good quality shoes.<br /><br />As for the stash buying....Not sure on the Promarker's being essentials lol!!! At least you got them best price unlike the lace hee hee!! Why not spend the budget on lace next month so you have some & then you won't be craving it & make unscheduled purchases?<br /><br />Anyway the important thing is to focus on the overall positives....you are doing fabulously with UIU & it was only a small blip, don't lose sight of the big picture.<br /><br />Now that must have been an extremely big postcard for all my waffle!!

Also you have to keep up to date with current trends when doing DT cards - so they really are a necessity!<br />Therefore no problem as you stayed within budget! I regularly go out and realise I've left stuff at home and it's too late to go back for it! As for your little one I can't help much as we don't have munchkins! But my mum used to always buy me Clarks shoes when I was a kid - two pairs a year most of the time as I would grow out of them in 6 months. Apart from suffering with RA in my feet I've been told my feet are in fab condition and it was prob the shoes that has kept them problem free.

I don't remember ever having to buy more than one pair of school shoes each child each year, they kind of stretch with them a bit.

At least you have made yourself aware of your purchases and think about them before you actually make them. <br />I myself did not take the UIU challenge. Although I probably spend a little too much on stuff, I am still using most of it so I don't feel too bad!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01322206648100140294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010297157992810631.post-21635667070900140642012-03-04T17:53:51.964+00:002012-03-04T17:53:51.964+00:00If you are looking for reasonably priced ribbons a...If you are looking for reasonably priced ribbons and stuff, I can whole heartedly recommend The Ribbon Reel website. I have had a look around blogland and this is the most reasonably priced ribbon shop in the UK, (as far as I can see), and the service is top notch!
