    Please don't stop posting pictures of your stashes on here. I am scared of facebook but still want to see what you have bought:rotfl: :rotfl:

    If you are worried about people seeing your profile on facebook, you can set your security settings so that only your friends or chosen people can see you. This is what I have done, so my family when doing a search for me, cannot find me.

    I have joined the facebook group too :o and put a little pic on my profile - what a good idea!

    On another note, I just got round to selling some of my stash on ebay - I think a few people were interested in whether they would sell or not?
    Well I listed the No7 men's GWP (brand new, unopened) and it sold within a day buy it now for £7.99 + p&p, and I think I could have got more... When I put mine on a couple days ago there were no others on there, so if you see any knocking around for under a fiver, I reckon you could get maybe £9 - 10 for it - instant money spinner!

    Also, if anyone's got any of the davidoff cool water that they bought at £5.50 and still not sure about/haven't opened yet, I sold mine again within a day for a tenner buy it now. I just wish I'd bought more when the fragrance voucher was out! I bet the cheap CKin2u would sell really well as well.

    I've got all the No7 and 17 GWPs scheduled to go on today, plus a couple of olay hand creams so will let everyone know how they sell - we could all be sitting on goldmines! :D

    Had a bit of a bad boots shop yesterday. I really can't afford to be bootsing right now :o but couldn't resist trying the 2x suncream + no7 GWP + 500 points + till spit. Didn't need anything else so I went to the counter and asked nice-looking (I mean in personality lol) SA if she could check 'if these would work together'.

    She put the points voucher through but told me the spit wouldn't work as the items were BOGOF. I knew I wouldn't have any grounds for her checking it as the total was only £10.50 (bought more SPF50 dark spot stuff :rolleyes:) and I thought even then, it probably wouldn't work as so many bootsers have had problems with it, so I just paid. I felt really annoyed with myself for not just leaving it and resolved to take the items straight back to another boots. But I had lost my reciept! :mad:

    To make matters worse, 2 other bootsers managed to get the spit to work on that exact combo the same day! :mad: (Sorry, well done guys! :T) Dang and blast!

    I already have about 4 boxes of the sun stuff, so I guess I'll just have to try and sell them on ebay...
    ;) One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you! ;)

    Had to get some salt for the water softener today so went off to Marlborough (a little tiny town). Found a Boots there :)

    Managed to get 1 Mitchum mens deodorant - SEL said £2.xx but it was the 150ml one so I hoped it scanned lower, and it did (63p). Used a £1 voucher, bought some paracetamol and throat sweets (for Guide camp next week) and something else but can't remember what and it came to £1.18 (less than cost of the throat sweets :)

    No reduced items apart from some girlie dummies (got a grandson).

    "Buy me, Lady", said the frock, "and I will make you into a BEAUTIFUL & WHOLE & COMPLETE human being".
    "Do not be silly", said the Man, "for a frock alone cannot do that".
    "True", said the Lady, "I will have the shoes and the bag as well".

    My mate works for a perfume house and always told me:
    EDT 3 yrs
    EDP 5 yrs

    However if you store out of sunlight, away from heat and even better in the boxes, you can store for another two on top of those times. Apparently though you can store the EDP from really great perfume houses for up to 10 yrs.

    However, it should only change colour or smell off, it should not change the actual composition and effect your skin :eek:

    has anyone received their boots vouchers from the sun? I'm still waiting for mine:rolleyes: I was hoping to combine any healthcare ones with the 2.50off WYS 10.00 on healthcare mailing voucher my friend gave to me. I need some deet insect repelent and travel sickness tabs for DD. Is healthcare still 3 4 2? not been into boots for a few days. I haven't checked ACM for new vouchers either, so no idea what the best deals are at the moment.

    RE: perfume stash. I have quite a few on the go:rolleyes: including: steve mcqueen, issy miyake, john paul gautier, ghost, amarige mariage, insolence, 2 x anna sui, fendi, cool water, TH true star, clarins eau dynamisante, C allure sensuelle (my favourite!) tobacco flower (body shop) very irresistible - givenchy, carolina herrera, D&G, EA red door, RL Romance and lacoste, touch of pink!
