Default Jan 16/365 - Puffles
I made a big mistake in going into a toy shop with my children today. I know, I know bad move!..... I only went in for some acrylic paint for my son and got persuaded to buy these Puffles at £6 each as my children are addicted to Club Penguin.

Only 10 minutes earlier I got ripped of by paying £16.25 for 2 coffees, 4 toasted teacakes and 2 cokes!

The toys came out well.

£16.25 for snacks?! That's like almost $32 USD...buy a full meal for 4 people here!

Cap'n Jack your right! I was with my mum too and later on we went to Pizza Hut for lunch and that came to £24 for the 4 of us and that included icecream for the kids.
