    Has anyone bought the fruit trees/bushes? I was thinking of trying the redcurrant/blackcurrant ones.

    Went to the 99p shop recently and was very happy to see Lynx hair gel as I have never seen it in a similar shop before as it's over £4 in the supermarkets or currently 4 for £10 in Boots.

    I also saw Original Source shaving gel which hasn't been for sale in other shops for years, I used to love using it, so I was very happy to buy some :)

    Pack of 6 Durex Real Feel condoms. Think they must either be an old style pack or from abroad. An 8 pack is currently £11.49 at Boots http://www.boots.com/en/Durex-Real-Feel-8-Condoms_1465413/
    Expiry date is July 2015
