Anyway...lets the
Points Run continue
As an avid
Points Runner I am now starting to suffer from shopping fatigue from the daily "Groundhog Day" cycle of shopping. Some of the shop assistants I now see more of than my mates :shock:
A number of shop assistants now also give me quizzacal looks as I yet again appear....no doubt the source of speculation of being a shoppaholic.
My socks and jocks draws are overflowing and resplendant with new items.
The pantry is overflowing...as are the laundry and bathrooms with various soaps , shampoos and cleaning chemicals!!!
The beds have new sheets and our tired pillows replaced.
Xmas shopping normally a last minute rush, is now all complete and it is not even December yet!!! Santa also seems to have been unusually generous this year to my three duaghters and for some strange reason Santa seems to have been biased to many items rather than justa few more expensive ones
Summer the family is now already equipped for with new bathers all round, t-shirts and shorts.................and an ample supply of sunscreen and insect repellant.
Fortunately two of my daughters have birthdays in Nov and Dec and that has made a few Point Running trips a bit easier....and yes also compared to previous years, present purchasing was completed a record period ahead of time!!!
Various bills have been converted over to Amex..but not all as I do not see the sense in swapping from my preferred insurers etc.
But yes many bills are now being paid monthly rather than quarterly or yearly!
But there is still just over a month remaining in this particular point run.....and I must admit now that finding items to purchase, apart from normal groceries from the supermarkets, is starting to be a real challenge!!!!!!!!!
