waste of a day.

I’ve just gotten in the door after leaving the house 5 hours ago to do some shopping at a retail park with my mum. We managed to spend just £20 and that was £3 on lunch (McDonalds pound menu) and £17 in work on juice, milk and bread. Typical. I was so looking forward to buying little things in Ikea or a few pairs of trousers for work in Next or TK Maxx but every single shop that we went into was rubbish - shelves were half empty or items over-priced.

The whole point of going out in the first place was to let me do some driving but ended up I didn’t have a chance - mainly because the weather and traffic were horrendous. Hopefully I’ll manage to get out for an hour or two tomorrow since I feel like I haven’t been driving for ages and I want to sit my test soon, I’m fed up relying on buses to get around everywhere and taxis are costing me a fortune.

I’ve got to laugh at this listing on eBay for Irn Bru glasses - £14.99 buy it now? Those glasses are free for goodness sakes. There are about 150 of them sitting in the backshop in work - we’re handing them out with a purchase of 2 x 2litre bottles of Irn Bru and people are selling them for £15? What on earth is the world thinking?
