  • Also in Stratford:

    Squares crisps 7-bags multibag
    Coppertone UV Protect SPF50 Perfect UV Cut Cream. It's all in an Oriental language but has an English instruction label on the back - but suncream isn't exactly complicated! The white tube looks quite posh.
    Lyons instant coffee - haven't tried it yet.
    New You recovery oil - promises to improve scars, stretch marks, skin tone and dryness. It feels and smells a lot like the Poundland Flexitol, I have a squirt of one oil on each arm and this one has a tad more lavender, apart from that I can't feel a difference.
    Public appearances now involve clothing. Sorry, it's part of my bail conditions.

    I bought some of this a few weeks ago and thought the same - except it comes in 100ml not just 60ml like Flexitol!

    Beautiful miniature roses in Stratford - I find these grow big eventually.
    Slightly off-topic roobs - but do you keep these indoors all winter and then plant them outside once toughened up a bit? Can't get to Stratford until this w/end and the central lines's down so probably won't :(

    Nope I planted them out yesterday - they'll be fine xxx

    I can see that Lidl now have their Christmas goodies, including 1kg panetonne for £3.99. I usually buy it (800g?) from the 99p store around March time (its always stacked on big pallets), but didn't see any this year. I'm interested to know whether it materialised in any of the stores?

    And also to say that I saw the party packs of Mini-Cheddars in Lidl for £2.69 so am happy to have bought some this summer from 99p shop in Camden.

  • Found Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit face wash last week (been meaning to post).

    I used to use the original orange version of this a few years ago and paid about £4 in Boots as they didn't have it elsewhere. Found it a lot better than other facewashes as it didn't dry my skin out.

    Quoting myself from months ago...this weekend I found the orange version of this in my local store. I had found the pink one in a different city when I was out and about and never saw it at home, but now they have the orange variety. It's now about £5 in Boots.

    I also spotted a couple of bottles of Head and Shoulders Colour Care Conditioner. I searched all my usual 'cheap shops' for this when I started buying it and couldn't find it. Best I could do was 3 for £9 on the big bottles in Tesco...so I was pleased to be able to grab a couple of these in the 99p shop. Just wish I could find the shampoo now!
