Secret Santa and Buffet Day today at work! I hit Tesco's at 7.45am to buy all the food...and the place was heaving with people! Some kind of madness must take over some people, I mean what was one woman going to do with 24 cartons of long-life milk... the supermarket is only going to be closed for 2 days and her offspring will hardly starve if they don't have milk with their cornflakes!
Anyway, instead of being able to nip in and out, I had to battle my way round the store, cut my finger on someone's wayward trolley and an hour later, had spent £52 on french bread, various pate, sausage rolls, pork pies, crisps, Pringles, a bottle of red and white wine, lemonade, orange juice, samosas, spring rolls, cheese and pickle.
Secret Santa - 20 people taking part, minimum spend £10. People opted to buy for either a Girl or a Boy. Somebody couldn't be bothered and went to the corner shop and bought a box of chocolates for £1.50. The same person also tried to hustle in on our buffet until I pointed out that he hadn't paid, even though I chased him for the money yesterday so he didn't come round when we laid the spread out... Cheeky tight-fisted git still walks away with a present worth a tenner, knowing he's spent crap all on someone else.
What did I get? An aromatherapy shower/bath set with bathroom radio - cool! :)
