CBF quoting you all, but this is the first time it has been hosted anywhere other than my parents' houses. Normally they just put the whole spread on so I'm going to try to get everyone to bring something but I don't like my chances.
It's normally a pretty elaborate meal so I don't think I'll get away with a chook and bbq.

Speaking of prawns has anyone else noticed some kind of prawn shortage atm?? Cannot get any decent cooked prawns from Coles or the fish shop. Only these tiny puny shit ones that I wouldnt even be bothered peeling.
Would love it, thank you!

Crisis averted, parents are taking Christmas back. What a waste of energy that was.
The store that we ordered our furniture through today called and said they can only hold it until the end of this month or they will start charging us each week longer they hold it. ($35/week)
We can pay a cancellation fee of $135 if we decide to forfeit what we purchased (sofa, dining table and chairs, chair), we're still holding onto the sofa though. So that would equate to $475 (including our deposit), and the remainder left on the sofa.
We don't mind paying the fee (just don't have the room to store everything), but thinking about it, surely instead of charging us a fee, could they give us a credit and we come back when we are ready to purchase again? It's a chain store and I doubt this is an option. But hm.

Why did you buy the furniture so early?
Cos we thought we were going to be in on time.
Oh that's a bummer.

Why did they take it back?
lol nah it's because my sister in law thinks I live too far away (30km) to travel to
granted, she is disabled (in a wheelchair) and can't drive long distances but we only live 10km further than my dad does, and they're going there for dinner Xmas day

We might take the chair we ordered too.
Going to haggle with them over the cancelation fee because they said they were happy to hold it and never mentioned it being an issue.
Kinda annoyed me to be honest now that I think about it.
if they never told you about it then that's a serious pain in the dick

They may have but I don't recall it. We told them we will probably need it for November, but I don't remember them saying anything about charges if it was going to be extra.

When will you need it now? No storage options elsewhere or is it far too much stuff? Get 1 friend to store 1 item each [emoji6]
Feb, probably.
Well we aren't that sold on the dining setting so probably gonna forfeit that, but take the sofa and the chair that goes with it. Gonna haggle with them to bring down the cancellation fee.

Can you ask for a store credit? Surely they would rather receive your business than just a cancellation fee.
Also have a quick look over the terms and conditions you would have signed.
I suggested that to the missus but she reckons we can get something somewhere else cheaper. Though the store (Focus on Furniture) do have a table we like.

Why do shopping centres feel the need to organise Christmas Parades 46 days before Christmas?
