This time of year I love shopping in York - a tad expensive, but worth it with all those beautiful 'Dickensian' buildings to elevate the Christmas spirit. I love the Shambles.

In general, I feel M & S still deserves it's reputation for quality - especially the food lines, and I love Charity Shops and other types of Second Hand shops where I can spend hours browsing through the 'bric-a-brac'.

I do alot of my Christmas shopping online tbh, the stuff that my kids want especially there's alot more choice online. Also, i hate shopping especially when it's extra busy around Christmas.

I like Penneys (Primark over there) for stocking fillers and pajamas though

Do most of my shopping online these days.
My favourite shop is Laura Ashley for gifts for me
John Lewis is up there at the top of the list as well.

M&S is as good as any for foodie treats at this time of the year.
Quite like Aldi for festive bits as well.

Boots always have nice gift sets and the buy 2 get one free offer which I like.
