Chocolate fountains!
Yesterday, I went to a shopping centre, as as seems to be the trend these days there was a Chocolate Fountain stall selling the usual revolting things on sticks to be covered in melted chocolate.

Clothes4kids - do not use for kids' clothes
I first heard of https://www.clothes4kids.net via this board. Usually, moneysavingexpert forum members post brilliant sites with real bargains, so I was sure they'd be ok.

Watch out for multipacks in Boots!
I did a search but came up with hundreds of hits, so apologies if this has been raised before.... No doubt Boots isn't the cheapest place to buy your toiletries and bathroom cabinet supplies, but...

0871 scam
My BT phone bill is showing a 3 hour phone call to an 0871 number that I am sure we did not make. I suspect that it was a rogue dialler as we were logged on to our ISP at the time the call was supposed to have been made. We do not have broadband and I don't know how a call can be made while we are still logged on!…
