    Here is a little something I found on ibuprofen: (Basically, I was told that ibuprofen handles inflammation better, while paracetemol handles pain better).

    If you use both ibuprofen and paracetemol, I'm not sure I'd use the kind with codeine. I'd ask the pharmacist first to make sure it's ok (better safe than sorry). :)

    When my back was bad and I was waiting for morphine, I was told that you can use the paracetamol/codeine plus inruprofen(double checked with emergency doc and nhs direct in case they were fibbing lol)...however this should not be used for longer than three days whilst waiting for a prescription etc.

    Personally, I would say that the mix of all three drugs left me feeling a tinsy bit not on the planet, which is not fantastic if your alone with a little one! Therefore, it may be best to just take 1 of each tablet during the day and then just up to the full dose when little ones are in bed, so atleast you get a good sleep.

    I know we all react differently to things, but I kind of felt I was walking on air which is probably not a fab thing if your by yourself etc

    A kind little birdy (SA) told me that No7 goes on sale 3 for 2 on the 10th ... and the pinkies don't expire until the 14th. :)
    OK...brain melt...what was the date of the gwp ending?

    I am remembering appointment dates as DS put my calender in the bucket of carpet wash last week and can't remember the boots ones too lol

    Awww...sorry hunni, I went to sleep ;) I can't remember the exact name of the R&M brush I use, but its quite thin and slanted. I think its called i define brush :confused: So I dip it in the gel eyeliner, then I dab it on the back of my hand to take off most of the excess, then I try and draw a pale line as close to my lashes as possible, I then use the remaining liner thats on the back of my hand to go over the orginal line to cover any mistakes or to make it more defined, and I always use a magnifying mirror :)

    HTH

    (baby mini) belle, the R&M i define brush from BOOTS is the one I wanted to send you lol .. too late now! you might be able to do that with the one you wanted tho.. who I am (just a gal who cant apply eyeliner! tho maybe I now can.... ) all will be revealed later! (maybe) and before you start Broclo .. not like that! :p
  • Thank you becky1236.
    Sorry to bother you all again but hae 2 more questions for you all.
    With the free £5 vouchers can you se the voucher on 2 items to total up the £5. Eg. 2x products worth £2.50 each, "paid" for with 1 voucher. And also can you use the free £5 vouchers with the self srervice checkouts??

    Yep you can do that! Example, one of the Sanctuary facial masks is £2.50 each so you could buy 2 with one facial skincare till spit. (This would also work for clearance items eg: no7 lip glosses (made up btw lol) for £1 each - you could get 5 with one no7 till spit!)


    And yes, you can use the till spits/pinkys on the SS tills.


    If you have a till spit no7 voucher & a pinky no7 voucher - as these have different barcodes - you can use them together - so instead of just getting £5 off no7/ruby&millie - you get £10 off! HTH :)
