It’s that time of year again when the three of us reflect on the things we’ve bought and loved, or the things we want to get…and want to love…So, come join us in this episode for our usual amount of fun while seeing if there’s anything that might make your shopping list! A small note – we forgot to get this episode out before Black Friday but we’re releasing a day early so you can at least make Cyber Monday! And who are we joking nowadays? Black Friday seems to run from Nov 1 to Nov 30. Remember, if you’re going to do some shopping, please do use our links as they help the show out – you’ll pay the same as if you went directly to the sites but we’ll make a few pennies for showing you the way! Happy Holidays and shopping to all!
