I admire your willpower! I wouldn't dare keep them in the house. One weak moment and they'd be gone. Like that unopened tin of roses that I have left from Christmas... it's only the sellotatape that's saved them so far! But I know that they are there...

Unopened tin of Roses?? I'd have clawed a hole in it by now just to get to the strawberry creams. I have no willpower but I'm addicted to Crunchies so would rather be tempted by a fun size than a big one. It's means my kids get a very cheap sweetie now and again as well if I can stop scoffing.

Bought Baxter's sauces for 69p, Bolognese, Tikka Masala and Sweet and Sour. Had already tried the Tikka one and it was very tasty.Had the Bolognes one tonight, really nice and picky hubby loves it. Picked up 2 hair dyes at £1.99 each called Derma V10. Has anyone tried them?[/QUOTE]

My sister picked one up when we were shopping last week, her colour turned out nice and she said it was as good as her normal brand. I think it was a permenant black colour if I remember correctly.

I used them. The colour lasts quite well, you get a little tube of conditioner to use for the following weeks. They're not the best I've ever used but definitely not the worst.
Considering the price I can't find many reasons to go back to paying £5+ for Garnier/ Loreal colours

Actually I saw my Sis yesterday and she said it did fade quite quickly - more like a semi, so was in two minds as to whether to get another one. Like you said OK for the money.

Didn't your sister use the black dye? I find that black hair dye does tend fade very quickly. Much more so than red or brown.

Just bought a pair of these for my husband as he walks to work, only about a mile and a half but a long way if you can't stay upright in the icy weather.

They only had the one size which are 8 - 13 (46 - 48) but they only had about 4 pairs left so they may have had smaller sizes in.

I haven't got my receipt but I think they were £3.59 a pair which is about £10 less than the outdoor/ski shops sell them for.

just to say I tested this today and it worked a treat. Ive stuck a round cake board to the footprint side so it makes a flat base. Cost me a total of £3.58 for a turntable

What a clever idea :T. I hope I can get my hands on one.
