Did you receive any must-have Christmas Gifts?

Did you receive a pressie that you have been wanting?
If so, what was it and did it live up to your expectations?

    Hi Stacey827,

    Congrats, that’s amazing I wish you all the best, that is a very great way to start the year.

    Thanks everyone 🙂 Most christmases we don’t buy each other anything, although one year he bought me a wok (weird – I think he was hinting for me to cook stir-fry more often), so this year was a complete shock that’s for sure. He’s pretty proud of himself. Nobody knew. Not even his Mum

    I managed to score an engagement ring this year! He proposed Christmas morning. I had no idea and was not expecting it at all. Was a bit of a shock. I didn’t think he was ever going to buy a ring or propose! The general consensus from family and friends has been “about time” so maybe he felt a bit of pressure haha. He’s not usually very good at gifts or anything romantic.

    Lots of Mecca gift vouchers! Perfect for me 🙂

    My Christmas gift for the last 3 years has been a beauty advent calendar that I order in November and open from the 1st December. Reason being 1. I don’t really “need” anything and would much rather pick something I do like and 2. it’s like a present every day for 24 days.

      I like doing this too. I got a net a porter one this year that was great.

    • 5 yrs, 3 mths ago

      What a Great idea. I told hubby & Mum don`t buy anything for me because I don`t really need anything either.

      HiJanefre,

      That sounds great I`m going to do that next year and I like this phrase””it`s like a present every day for 24 days””. However, There are a lot of them It would be so overwhelming to choose just one. which one did you get? Thank you

        I got the Lumene one this year and for the 2 years prior to that I got the Look Fantastic one. To me it comes down to something that`s within my budget plus value for money.

      • 5 yrs, 3 mths ago

        I`ve never heard about the Lumene before I will have to do some research. The look fantastic sounds very interesting I heard so many good things about it. I was really interested in the lucky bag that beautylish offers every end of the year, They disappear so quick they that popular next definitely.

    I recieved a few prezzies this year I am over the moon with!! Finally have a Glasshouse candle (Night Before Christmas) and Circa Home (Cinnamon Sticks) they smell amazing ♡♡ was also very lucky to get a bottle of lancome hypnose perfume, mor marshmallow body wash and clinique cleansing balm!! A few other things as well like workout tights, clothes etc =)

    My husband is a grinch so I expected nothing and got nothing lol

    • 5 yrs, 3 mths ago

      Get yourself a post xmas gift and treat ypurself then .

      • 5 yrs, 3 mths ago

        Funny you should say that Harmony Queen, I booked myself in for a sneaky facial and massage next week hehe!!!

      • 5 yrs, 3 mths ago

        Well done Eskimo!

      • 5 yrs, 3 mths ago

        That`s excellent, Eskimo. I started to be horrified but as your husband does gifts unexpectedly I think that`s fine. As long as you`re fine with it, and treat yourself it sounds good! So pleased you`re doing this, it sounds perfect.

      • 5 yrs, 3 mths ago

        Well admittedly it was odd getting used to it at first, but now it`s just normal. Hopefully when we start having kids he`ll be more motivated to start celebrating events!

    • 5 yrs, 3 mths ago

      That`s so sad Eskimo82 I always know what I`m getting and exactly how much it costs ,

      Hubby says stuff like “”you can pick the colours, I don`t know what one you have already, I don`t know what size to get”” etc..

      • 5 yrs, 3 mths ago

        Well to be fair he does give suprise gifts at random times throughout the year – for some reason he has a thing against giving presents at Christmas, birthdays and pretty much any other time when gifts would normally be expected. Yup, I picked a weird one there hahah.

      • 5 yrs, 3 mths ago

        Well a xmas grinch isnt too bad when he isn`t a grinch the rest of the year.
