you dont have to .......

Recommended Posts

I was in TK max today and found myself in the household section looking at a tray with the picture of a chicken on it. Almost bought it then changed my mind. :clap:

 

I struck me as funny that i seem compelled to buy anything with a chicken on it - whether i need it or not :wall:

 

I dont need another tray. I have 2 and rarely use them. I dont need any more mugs, egg cups, plates, ornaments or anything else but the chicken factor is a great lure.

 

Anyone else have this problem?

I have to opposite problem. I have yet to buy my first bit of chickenalia :shock: Terrible, I know, but I'll see something think thats nice, but do I need it, realise I don't, and then not buy it. I wish I could apply that to my other shopping as I'd have so much more money.

I quite agree Mostin...I've never been like this before with anything else...fortunately our kitchen cupboard has now reached saturation point so I really can't buy any more mugs...still plenty of extra space for tea towels aprons etc though :D

Nooooo.....

 

TKMax you say...... :lol::lol:

 

It's very strange isn't it :lol: . I've never felt that urge to buy things covered with cats or rabbits, so why do I need to buy things covered in chickens :? .

 

Because they are soooo pretty!

I'm absolutely terrible. I have about 30 chicken ornaments, numerous toy/cuddly chickens, a handpainted card of a chicken, a chicken lamp, nearly all my mugs have chickens on them, a tiny chopping board which is useless but has a chicken on it, a nailbrush i didn't need that has a chicken on it, an outdoor bell with a chicken on it, chicken badges and a chicken on a spring that hangs in the window.

 

I have got better lately but i need help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just had to order a load of stuff when M&S started doing a range of 'chicken' crockery. I had to search for ages on line to find the cuddly chickens for the children at Christmas. Now Phoenix Cards have expanded their chicken range I can share my enthusism even more widely :lol:

I've got a chicken money box and a rather lovely rooster door stop but am determined not to buy anything else.

 

When we first got married I had a couple of cat ornaments and from then on people would buy me some for birthdays etc. I ended up with loads. OH doesn't like ornaments really so I've had to whittle the cats down to about 3 about the house. He would definitely go :roll: if any more chicken stuff appeared.

There's always space for 1 more tea towel :wink:

I was bought a chicken mug & cotswold Chicken gift voucher by my colleagues at work, then an iron chicken egg holder for Christmas that started it :roll: My last buy was a glass chicken bead for my Truth bracelet. I have to be so good & say no room, won't use it. Going to The Ashby Show tomorrow so my resolve will be tested in the craft tent I feel :D

I was inordinately pleased with it and I don't normally wear an apron!

 

If you are not using it I always wear an apron when I bake and help with the cooking :wink::oops::lol:
