<\/p>\n

Ah, the most wonderful time of the year. Or is it? Read and relate to the stages you’ll most likely experience doing your Christmas shopping…
\n <\/p>\n

The Prep<\/h3>\n

You’ve got a list as long as your arm and the budget has been set. Nothing can go wrong
\n <\/p>\n

Entering The Shopping Centre<\/h3>\n

What. Is. This. Madness?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Being Told They’ve Not Got Your Size Left<\/h3>\n

When you’re meant to be shopping for other people<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Yet Feeling No Shame At Swiping The Last Luxury Choc Set In Store<\/h3>\n

You snooze you lose Sandra
\n <\/p>\n

Getting To The Till And Realise You’ve Left Your Bag For Lifes At Home<\/h3>\n

Bags were NOT IN THE BUDGET
\n <\/p>\n

Whenever You Pay In Cash<\/h3>\n

You. Are. Welcome
\n <\/p>\n

The Regret Of Overpacking<\/h3>\n

These bags are weaker than me after a few shots
\n <\/p>\n

Realising You’ve Forgotten Your Sister’s BF’s Gift, But Managed To Bag Yourself A Bodycon<\/h3>\n

I tripped into an LBD ok?<\/p>\n
