  • I agree about the thread moving so fast. I just can't keep up so could anyone please tell me about the Andrex Wipes and those black quilted make up bags. I think someone said to use pinkies so does that make them No7?

    Also Skittifer your eyes look beautiful I wouldn't mind giving it a try but maybe without the eyeliner. I had the "Dusty Springfield" look in the 60's and that was the last time I used eyeliner and then my dad used to say that coalminers down the pit had cleaner eyes then me.

    OOoohhh whats this about the black quilted makeup bags??? Are they just "bags" or are they filled with goodies???

    and Skittifer, what amazing eyes, they are stunning!! Wish I could do my make up as good as you, saying that, I dont get enough practise, I only wear it when I go out, which is about once a year!!!-(i'm not joking!! Nobabysitting offers!! Our 14th wedding anniversary tomorrow, and we are not going anywhere!!:(

    The black quilted makeup bags are empty - there are no glitches on them, they're just a nice purchase to use up one of your No7 pinkies!

    "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".

    Hi everyone. After reading this thread for the past couple of days i finally went and got a mag for TS voucher (still loads in dundee, they were filling them up when i got there!). Are you just allowed one mag per advantage card? I'd never got one before so wasn't sure. So I got a shampoo and a conditioner for £2.50. Not quite a penny but I was still pleased! Think I've got a lot to learn with bootsing tho :rolleyes:
    :wave:

    You can get one per transaction. The vouchers do say on them "one per customer", so be careful, but there's nothing on the tills to stop the mag scanning free more than once or to stop the vouchers scanning more than once.

    skitifer how on earth to you get both eyes even lol?

    i always have one that looks bigger than the other, i don't get on very well with eyeliners lolol

    I had years of practice as a goth :rotfl: Although I am out of practice a bit, but liquid eyeliner is easier than pencils I think, just keep trying, and keep the JK wipes handy lol :D

    My eyes aren't totally even, I went for thicker liner on the cool eye, and did slightly different angles with the liner too.

    I want to see some more challengers please, gives good inpiration to gospend more :T :rotfl:

    Thank you :)

    We would be waiting for ever if I waited until I was going out to put some make up on, I think once a year is about our limit too ;)

    I hope you have a lovely anniversary tomorrow :beer:


    It is hubby's birthday today, do you think it would be cruel to make him go to Boots? :confused: :rotfl:

    Ta 4 that, I just gone back to read from page 60, and saw the piccies of them on there. I havent got time to trawl back the other 20 pages Ive missed, need to get showered before my liccle pickle wakes from her nap!

    Somebody mentioned about the Ted Baker men's wash bags reduced to £3.75, and where to find them, I saw them in our smaller Boots store on sunday, they were placed with the reduced items, not with the mens toiletries, so may be worth looking at where your local boots reduced shelves are???

    hi jax I use vista and I dont have a problem. are you using recycled paper as i find that is not very good with barcodes

    Hi Mrs t...
    No, not using this
    I'm beginning to think it must be something i'm doing. (not the comp):beer:..or not doing...tried everything...i can think off. All different variables have to be manually added.

    Suppose, could be worse...like not being able to use AT ALL.
    Now, that would see me in a hissy fit...lol lol lol

    Thanks all'
