So far I have bought myself a vape (gonna finally quit smoking!), Some yum Indian food from my fave little place down the road and REAL coffee from my local cafe!  I really need new winter clothes but need to lose the 5kgs I've put on during lock down before I do so,  cos it'll kill me going up a size haha

I binge watched The Afterlife. I'm not a Ricky Gervais fan, but watched season 1 ages ago and loved it, so today watched seasons 1 and 2. It's very clever.

Belated birthday wishes Lisa! Hope you had a good one!

Can't stand Ricky Gervais, did try to watch the Afterlife once but couldn't get into it. Kath & Kim was released on NF so have been rewatching it again. So great.

Thank you Tabu :-) I started watching The Afterlife too but didn't even finish the first episode.  My partner doesn't like Ricky so he was being annoying lol I might try watch it again by myself. I watched The Brews Brothers.....meh it was ok. Need something good to watch.

Agreed. Of all the many movies and series available, it is still very difficult to find something good to watch. The NZ series One Lane Bridge has been pretty good so far.

We have been watching Frozen 2 which came in the post.

I have purchased some indoor plants and vegies to support our local nursery. Also got some crafty stuff for the girls to do. I'm patiently waiting for the shops to open for beauty products as I prefer to have a good look around and check out the new colours etc.

Belated birthday wishes Lisa it sounds like you had a nice day :-)

I'm only waiting on one more delivery (possibly in a few parts) and my activewear shopping spree will be complete haha. 

I raided the Cotton On and Kathmandu sales and claimed back about half what I spent through work (we get a wellness budget and activewear is classed as sports equipment) and scored: 

- tights x6 -  3 black, one navy, one grey, one leopard
- tops x about 10, oops 
- 3x Kathmandu light hoodies/jackets
- 2 scrunchies
- pj shorts

coming in the last one are crop tops, another top (shush it was pink and I didn't have a pink one), long tights, Capri tights and socks.

really just need new shoes now and I'm good to carry on walking through the winter!

(disclaimer: before this I had one pair of tights and about three tops I could wear for exercise- I was going in jeans)

Warehouse has become like my place to shop. Mostly because of cat supplies but this is the second time I have forgotten to get oil for the car, sigh. Also purchased a lip scrub from Skye Candle & Body Care, an nz brand. Loved their passionfruit lip scrub which was only limited edition. Hope I like the vanilla one. Also had a discount count for free shipping, bonus!

I really need new activewear too I've never shopped at Cotton on maybe I will look. I got mums gift yesterday so it probably won't arrive in time but that's ok. Dads bday today and his gift has only just gone on the courier. I've done a few orders from the warehouse too and one from postie plus yesterday. My partner got some local handmade soap which was on our doorstep yesterday. It smells really great! It was 6 for $30.

I've never shopped at Cotton On either. I've seen some of their clothing on The Market and it looks good. I just struggle with buying anything other than cheap clothes online because I worry about the sizing. It's an issue I need to confront really.

Once I can try before I buy I want some that are a bit more flattering in the butt region and have a phone pocket on the thigh/hip lol but these are fine for walking I. - reasonably thick, tight but give easily, have a waistband pocket, high waisted and don't roll. The full length ones are well long enough (I'm quite tall) and the 7/8 ones are ankle grazing. Their sale is very good, I paid $240 for six tights, about 10 tops, 2 scrunchies, a reuseable bag and a pair of pj pants incl delivery

I've found The Warehouse click and collect extremely slow. The online deliveries from there and Postie have been ok, and Healthpost has been great - as always.

Just put in a warehouse order this morning for some cheap winter clothes for the girls. I put in a small order with them a few weeks ago and they actually sent it in 3 lots. Everythings a bit slow (hard on my impatient nature) but to be expected. My brothers actually a rural courier and he's crazy busy

With the warehouse things tend to sent separately as they are shipped from all over the country. Have been generally impressed with delivery times though. Expected it to be a few weeks but usually receive within a few working days.

Yes my warehouse order came in 3 lots. I understand things are hectic so I am being patient :-) I just ordered my supplements today too. I can only imagine how busy couriers will be. Glad mine is amazing!

  I've been putting a off a big order of items (because it's spensy and slow postage in lock down) to give manicures and pedicures to people in my bubble. I'm currently going to beauty school so I do need to stay in practice. 

  There's probably other things I need but with studying this year it's been about making a lot of edits to my shopping list in order to stay afloat.

I ordered my supplements yesterday and they are on the courier already so I am happy about that.  I purchased some heated socks lol and they were sent the same day. My Mothers Day gift unfortunately has still not been sent but I let mum know something will arrive eventually lol.

Ooh are they woollen? Wool socks seem to be the only thing that keep my feet warm and then I wear my sheepskin slippers. I can't believe how warm and toasty my feet are when I wear them. I must look this brand up though.
