So today, the sun was warm and bright so mum took off for a walk. She walked to the local surf beach and watched the surfers for a while and then went to some of the shops having sales. She bought a chefs knife which was good as the small veg knife she was using was struggling to cut up winter potatoes and cabbage. She also checked out the feather pillows $80!!!! Luckily there was a 60% off sale on, still mum couldn't get over the price. I guess if she keeps it for 10 years, the cost evens out and we guess you can't put a price on a good nights rest. She did look at the winter weight duvets, but they were charging $600 for them - just crazy!!!
Anyways, mum then went and mets some besties for a nice Friday night drink, lots of girlie chat and some tasty tapas. Then home to feed me my feast and chat with me on the couch.
Have a great Friday everybuddy!!!

HeHe! Poppy!x If you'd catch a few more birdies...Mum would have lots of feathers to stuff her own pillow! :). Sounds a bit naughty, l know, but, Mum must have her beauty sleep....AND...So must you!x
ReplyDelete$600 for a winter duvet?! That's highway robbery. Oh sure, you could pay that here too (just Googled to see what the exchange rate is and $1 CAN = $1.07 NZ, so it would be $562 here). But you can get a really good duvet for $200 - $300. Still too much for our budget, but certainly more reasonable.
ReplyDeleteThe pillow was a good deal, though, especially if it lasts that long.
Enjoy the weekend, both of you. :-)
happy, snuggly weekend to you too!
ReplyDeleteps i never buy feather pillows, duvets or clothes since the feathers are collected in a most horrible way from the birds... there are so many great, eco- and animal-friendly options out there these days. and just as comfortable and warm! you shoudl check those out:) ds
Wow, those are WAY expensive! I do think it's important to have the comfiest bed possible... but wow, you could get two cat trees with that.
ReplyDeleteThat is very expensive but it is important to have a comfy pillow. It took my mum several years before she found the right pillow to suit her.
ReplyDeleteWe like the old and familiar things too. Wow, pillows and winter duvets can be expensive. Thank heaven for IKEA. But you look nice and warm, Poppy? Just summer blankets for is here. Meow, Jessica
ReplyDeleteA good pillow is worth it's weight in gold. And yes after calculating how long you keep it. It's not so bad Stay warm xxx
ReplyDeleteOur Mum sleeps on the allergy-free stuff. It's not cheap, either.
ReplyDeleteFeather pillows sounds much more exciting and aromatic to us kittehz, though!
Wow, those are some expensive pillows!
ReplyDeleteYou must be a very good girl, Poppy. Once and only once our mum bought a thick down pillow. It lasted about 5 weeks before one of us pee'd on it! Same with her duvet; out they went! All must be washable or cheap in our
ReplyDeletehouse.
Sounds like your mum had a great time. We like to see her relax and enjoy herself.
