    Thanks, I already had plenty of replacement heads - otherwise I might have gone for an Oral B brush this time, Sonicare are so flippin' expensive. I bought a twin pack of handles at Costco last weekend at £119 inc vat, I don't think that was an especially good price, but needed a toothbrush pronto, and as I say, already got loads of the replacement brush heads.

    Maybe, as I work there ;), pretty much every other member has asked for these two items and until today (it's showing up as being delivered soon) most of us just guessed that they were discontinued due to import cost.

    So you shop in the Thurrock store? Anyone else here shop in that store?


    Ooh you've become my new favourite person in the thread :rotfl:

    Hi

    I've been told by Thurrock that the Otis cookie dough won't be back in store. Is this correct? I love the cookies :(

    Way too salty and loaded with some really nasty crap if you read the ingredients

    I wasn't aware they were planning to build a costco in maidstone. but like it's been said, i doubt it will go ahead. plus i don't own a business so i can't use it anyway.

    You don't have to own a business, you can become a member if you work or have worked in certain professions.

    Rich people tell you that money doesn't bring you happiness just so the poor people don't feel jealous.

    Ah, sorry. Didn't realise you worked in the Thurrock store. I was in Edmonton. Thurrock isn't too far away from me either, but I only ride a motorbike so I can't ferry much back on the bike anyway. Once I can get a lift, I'd like to go to the Thurrock store. Then I can really go mad with the spending! :D

    In case anyone else was interested, checked out Croydon today and no epilators :(

    I did see in the same aisle Rio UV nails professional set (reduced?) for just under 50+VAT. Seems to be £70-90 online.

    Not my kind of nail thing but hth someone!

    I can wholeheartedly recommend the southern style chicken breasts in the freezer section. They are DELICIOUS! Juicy not like some dry chicken in breadcrumbs. DH and I call it 'Chicken ding' and get through boxes of the stuff. Its not too calorific either (About 230 per breast) so is good for weightwatching. They are about £9 for 10.
