Panic Buying
It's the last shopping day before the whole country shuts down for christmas. You've been looking all over for something, anything, to buy your favourite person. Something that says you care, that makes them see you in a new light.
Well, something that won't make them punch you would do. My brother-in-law once bought his wife a bin for her birthday - it was a very nice bin, but boy was he in the crud for days.
What have you bought in sheer panic and desperation? Go on, you know you do it every year.

t'was not at xmas
But the day before my mothers birthday... I thought i'd get her some chocolates, a cake or something similar. Down at the corner shop i thought "Hey, why buy Milk tray etc when this strawberry swiss roll is 10 times cheaper, and you get more for your money."
You know it's the thought that counts, if that thought saves my wallet some harm then it's double the thought. Right? Right?
