We just thought you may need/like some ideas for your Christmas shopping… or ideas for pressies… so here are a few web sites that have caught our eye.. have fun shopping on line…
But stay safe, we have heard of some terrible scams with online shopping…steer clear of ‘marketplace sellers’! even if you know the main site, you can still get ‘screwed’ and the umbrella company can just tell you ”tough luck” and wash their hands of the scam (an example will be a whole blog one day!)
We have used or know these sites below and all (seem) to be good and prompt with delivery…hope this helps and cuts down on a little of the stress.. xxx
