    Smile I attempted my first nappy stocking..

    Ok so i always miss out on CGR stockings, so i was determind that i wanted to have a go and get myself a nappy, i found a girl one and a boy one that i wanted, both large, although they both fit medium, but hubby talked me into just getting the boy one, so he thought, and i wish i listened to him, lol..

    I had the pirate in my cart, but i went to get the butterfly, and when i got back to my cart, the pirate was SOLD, i was soooo upset, i manged to still get a cgr nappy in a boys design in medium, which is better in size anyway, but i have learnt my lesson, just go for one!! LOL

    It was kind of exciting in a way, the rush of trying to get what u want....

    I had quite a few screens open at the same time as well, and my fb frooze at 20 past, i was having a heart attack, cause i couldnt move my mouse either, lol, so there was no going back to the other screen.

    A lot of them have it set to first to check out will get the nappy, so you're better off to check out with one then go back in. If you're lucky enough to get two then shoot an email to the store owner and they can manually adjust to combine postage and send a new invoice.

    Good on you for getting one

    Anila - well done! The car one was cute. I got DD the choc swirl dragonfly one!!! I'm pretty stoked

    Squid - a nappy stocking is when they release a few nappies they've made and they go live to sell... like 8pm they will advice they are going to go live and you jump onto their website then and try to grab one!! they go in seconds/mins.... then that's it for a few weeks until they make more!

    Someone please, please tell me, in simple, easy words that a man will understand, what is a nappy stocking, and what is a hyena?

    I mean, I know what a stocking is. And I know what a hyena is. But I think that you are using them in a different context...
