I want to ask my husband for a new wedding band set, but I know he won't really care to get one for me. Context: Been married for nearly 6 years (August of this year will make it six), had our vow renewal in 2022 after we reconciled, and we are expecting our second child in September. I wanted to get my original ...

What did you do for yours? What's recommended? At this stage, my husband and I thought we would go on an elaborate trip or he previously mentioned upgrading my ring. However, neither are realistic lol in fact, the only alone time we can even pull off is a dinner out. SO... he asked about gifts yesterday, mentioned ...

I need ideas on how to say thank you to my neighbor/friend for watching my 1yo for an hour here and there. She won’t accept money because she says it’s fun for her and her daughters love having the baby around. I don’t want it to come off as I’m taking advantage but I don’t know what the right way to thank her is.

Made an apple with a removable worm 🍎🐛

Those with older siblings, are you going to get them a present from the baby? If so, what will you get them?

Hi all, i sold an item via inPost which the buyer didnt pick up. It says on the courier tracking they picked it up to return back to me. I’ve not received it and it’s been a month, no update on their tracking. I’ve contacted vinted couple of times and today the agent was being rude and said they wont compensate me a...

I feel this is really silly.. But I've got blue light card. It seems to be mainly you need to pay for a voucher first and then spend it in the shop. But I don't know what I'm going to spend in the shop.. So I get a very small discount on a certain amount and have to pay full price for the rest if I go over. Is thi...

If you won a million dollars scratch off ticket, what would be the 1st thing you would do?

Personally I stole a $1 lipgloss when I was like 4 years old and cried immediately after walking out of the store I felt so bad! Never stole again since and never will lol

How much have you spent / you going to be spending on your little one’s second birthday? Don’t know if I’ve gone overboard or not want to compare. We have 16 items, 2 relatively ‘big’ presents

Just adding up what I’ve spent on presents for my daughters second birthday and I don’t know if it’s considered a lot or a little she’s got -16 items for £132 Is that too much?

What do I buy a 7 year old girl that has everything. Honestly stuck so bad with what to buy her.

We have celebrated our bday with some kids and their families. Wondering why would one give used gifts that too packed in gift cover.

What have you brought/buying baby for their 1st birthdays?

We as parents don't speak, but kids wish to buy him a gift (with my money of course). His not stepping up IMO sees his kids once per month, consistently pays child support (£50per child each month 🙄) He don't deserve NADA but I will do it for the kids.

Ladies tell me how it is are you overflowing with toys in a small flat too? How do you cope, organising, downsizing, donating, throwing out old unused or shabby things. I was raised to treasure every tiny thing and to never get rid of things and that getting rid of a gift was the biggest offence possible to do to a ...

So my friend had a joint party with 2 other moms. They all agreed to split the fee of the venue (sorted). Mom A said she doesn’t mind paying for decorations/party bags and other party things (mom B made requests for matching clothes also paid by Mom A . Mom B said she will find a cake. Mom C said she will do food. P...

I normally get her flowers delivered but I'm going to be with her for the first time in like 17 years on her actual birthday. (It's on Saturday). I have the same bracelet. I'm flying on Friday so stuff has to fit in my personal item.

Okay so I was thinking of selling crochet sets. Like toy sets, food sets, etc. how many toys/foods would you like to see in a “set” 2, 4, 6, 10+? How much would you pay for that set? Like for mini stuffies, would you do 4 for 40? Or for foods, would you do 4 for 65? What would you do as a mom?

Kiddo is due late next month, and we have a few people that have asked us if we still need things and want to sent us things. All I can think of is asking them to contribute to a college fund😵‍💫, but that feels a little crass asking for money.
