    Had a really challenging day at uni yesterday, came home close to tears and feeling overwhelmed ( i'm a student nurse)
    But soon cheered up when i saw what chanel had sent me :4 x spray samples of madamoiselle (coco chanel) and the cutest mini bottle of my fave perfume, to last me till xmas as i had ran out( just sent them a polite email saying this).
    4 elemis samples
    7 nivea sachets for women
    and a tenner coupon from v05!!!!!!!!!! £10! just for saying my son loves their hair gel- very generous.
    I'll try and upload the pics x

    Can I ask when you emailed Lush about being a tester? I've asked them twice and they said they were full and no room on waiting list. Just curious (and quite jealous! lol)

    Hi, I emailed them on the 29th of August and they got back to me on the 13th of September. I just said how much I loved their products (which I genuinely do) and that I would be willing to test the products if they needed anyone. I wasn't really expecting to be chosen though so sort of said either way that I loved their products.

    I went to Burger king on tuesday, was not impressed. the burger was more grey than brown it was cold and very greasy. me and my friend threw them away. Complained straight away when i got in and they have just rang up very poliete. she gave me a reference number to get 2 cheese whopper meals ( which was what i got on tuesday) so that was a result :)

    So you just got what you ordered? You need to learn to haggle, I'm sure they would have offered more ;)
    Thought for the day: each generation of mankind tends to hug the illusion of having reached the culmination of human achievement. Yet, as we scoff at our groping ancestors, so our descendants will surely scoff at us.

    I emailed Lush today and got a reply within a couple of hours saying they were inundated with requests to test products and couldn't add any more people to their waiting list :(
