Welcome to my bargain  Saturday 📬

Breakfast and Brew.

We listened to "The Sounds of the 60s"

UK Top 3 from 1962.

3: Little Eva - The Loco - Motion

2: Chris Montez - Let's Dance

1: The Tornados - Telstar

Dressed.

Picks up the shopping list.

Now out we go.

Off to a good place in Stratford upon Avon.

We gave in some things.

Now to look around...for bargains..

Lloyd loom time!

Put our bargains in the car.

Now to do some food shopping.

Once done.

Coffee and nibble time!

Back home we go...

Once home.

Unpacked the car.

Bargains from Stratford↓

While Hubby is putting the food shopping away.

I sort my Craft Room out and insert the nice bit of Lloyd Loom↓

No liquid lunch today.

With added coffee↓

Then to take something back to The Range.

We parks in Car Park 4.

First stop was to take our Christmas Decoration back to The Range for a refund. I got two woolly hats on the reduced stand.

However when I got to the till to pay them, it came up as full price not reduced.

Waited for 5 minutes for someone to help.

The woman who gave us a refund earlier, sorted it out :)

Next stop was WHSmith to get my newspaper.

No point going to self service, the till goes red when the voucher gets scanned.

Waits for the two customers in front to be served.

First customer spends £44 on reduced bits.

Second customer spends £11 on the national lottery.

Once my voucher is scanned, I am out of here.

We then popped into a Charity Shop who I made a friend a few weeks ago. I showed him where the rainbow laces I bought a couple of weeks ago is now....

He was pleased.

The next Charity shop has some unicorns I had to have!

Next up, hubby replaced the Monday cup he broke.

Now to go and visit my parents....

I had a good catch up.

Then off to Sainsburys we go...

Sequins time!

We got some bits.

The woman next to me spent £108 and didn't blink!

Coffee and nibble.

That was a certain Yorkie advert I liked....↓

Back home to unpack my bargains.

Nice bowl↓

Nice cup of brew time↓

Looks into today's newspaper.

Hubby starts on the tea.

We watch James Whale.

Tea time.

Now for a little pick me up↓

We caught up with the news and newspaper review.

Going to have a extra hour in bed!

Welcome to the Monday Motivation 🎈

Busy day ahead....

Heardles be done later on....

Breakfast and Brew time.

On goes the trouser suit!

I still had to wear a coat, as it was freezing.

My younger son was coming with me.

Time to leave the house.

Gets dropped off near the bus station.

Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I left.

Walked down to the bus station.

Waits at the bus stop.

Bus comes.

  I sit at the back.

Good book to read...

I did put my face mask on.

I even opened a window to let some air in.

Someone came on and shut it!

All the way to Stratford in the sunshine.

Gets off and walks to the Town Hall to hand in my form.

Waits to be seen.

I hands in my form.

Can't process it because the two people who signed the form ain't in South Studley but in North Studley!!!!

I gets the form given back to me and I walk out.

I need a bloody coffee and nibble!

Few phone calls later, I have to return the form and get it signed by two people in South Studley.

I have a hour and half to kill before getting on the bus back.

Time to hit the Charity Shops!

Got some bargains for my younger son.

More pom pom items for me.

Visited the Christmas Shop.

Had some fun with the Nutcracker!

More looking about.

Someone got married there as well↓

We carried on looking about and sat by the river for ten minutes before we got the bus back.

We hopped onto the bus.

Let the Magicial Mystery tour start...

One of passengers says to the bus driver,

"You have missed the turning!"

The bus driver drives to the big island and comes back and turns left.Only to find at the mini-island he can't turn right.

He gets around the mini-island and off to Alcester he goes. We get into Studley, he asks someone walking their dog if this is Crooks Lane.

I hope it is as I am getting off at the end of the lane.

Finally gets off, and walks down to the Parish Council building.

I had in my form to be resigned.

We walk down to the Charity Shop.

Has a laugh in there.

Off to get the Evesham Bus.

More magical mystery tour.

It didn't go round Lakeside, so we had to get off before it was going to the Bus Station.

Nice 25 minute walk in the sunshine back  home.

I was so glad to get home after today!

Nice cuppa to have!

A Councillor took my completed form back to Stratford before 4pm.

She had right fun putting it in!

At least it's in.
