Born to shop (online)

I trudged out to the White Rose Centre.  It is a nice place and there is a variety of shops, but they aren't my sort of shops.  They are mostly expensive or expensive-ish, so you have M&S and Debenhams, which while not couturiers are relatively upmarket.  There is topshop and Evans, and there is Primark (which I don't like to go into, I feel uncomfortable).  It is just a bit, well, bland for me. I do most of my shopping online anyway, I am not a follower of fashion, and I get bored easily. 

However the White Rose Centre Sainsbury's (which is vast) has vitamins for youngsters with iron.  Little bear is stuffing himself with fish and a little chicken, but until I stuff him further with spinach and dried fruit his iron levels are likely to be a bit low. 

While I was there I found that Holland and Barratt also have children's vitamins that contain iron, so if I can persuade little bear to look past the orange flavouring then that means I have one less reason to go out to the White Rose Centre.  This is not a bad thing, and Holland and Barratt not only are in Leeds Centre but also are online.  I lurve internet shopping.

I popped into Mr Sainsbury for the sake of it, really, and found a large 72 wash box of Fairy for £10.  Yes, I was the idiot dragging a box of washing powder nearly as big as little bear home on the bus.  I feel like I've been on a weightlifting session.  I do have a stash of washing powder.  It is just that I couldn't turn down the bargain.  Little bear is prone to eczema, and looking at this it occurred to me that perhaps non-bio would help.  I also picked up a joint of pork and some mince. 

Other things that fell into my basket were two v necked sweaters for little bear as his head is so large that it gets stuck in the sweat shirt version and some alcohol for my sister in law who is babysitting little bear tomorrow.  Obviously she will not drink in charge - she is incredibly safety conscious and protective of little bear.  However she may find it useful to recover.
