I thought it would be quite hard to test this one out actually, as the prices are so reasonable and I only have the one school age child. But having learnt my lesson starting last year with two pairs of trousers I know that at least four pairs are really required. Especially if the weather makes drying outdoors impossible. The house looks permanently like a laundry otherwise.

I picked up four pairs of his favourite style of trouser - the cargo pants. These were £5 each, which isn't a bad price.

Trying to keep my mind off events that are happening around London at the moment, at least until my other half gets home safely from work, I've started on that annual Summer holiday chore. Stocking up on schoolwear ready for the new term.

I'm loving that this free delivery code for Marks and Spencer is still working. It means that I can do all this without having to drag my six year old son around the shopping crowds. However, it is very sobering to reflect that my two closest stores are in town centres that I'm currently watching on TV as rioters burn cars and storm into shops. Here's hoping that all our PlayPennies readers are safe at home tonight.
