    ped egg


    Found ped egg on ebay for 2.94 inc p&p, I've just bought one due to SS's sales pitch :rotfl:
    That's good value so I bought 2 for £4.93 no Boots points but who cares at that price. Now all I need is the cream and socks. Are there special socks you can buy? Only asking as I want to give it as a pressie.

    Those aren't the same bags I've seen - they are a deep pink/purple with prints of Russian wooden dolls on them :confused:.

    found socks
    on ebay £2.95 or less not bad, I got mine as part of a woodland trust gift set in Boots at 75% off - you could use almost any cream but the heel genius is excellent or scholl cracked heel cream

    i just get 100% cotton socks and put a moisturising lotion on my feet before bed

    for a really intensive treatment you could put on a body butter/ foot butter overnight

    Generally though i follow the routine that the pedicurist does -

    1) file feet with foot file

    2) rub with foot scrub

    3) soak in foot spa

    4) dry feet thoroughly

    5) apply moisturiser


    if applying nail polish - file and trim nails before no1

    complete steps 1 - 5 and then apply nail polish after

    hth :D
    bargain shopping is the only way to shop :j

    Has anyone seen the travel cases with bottles in any of the Milton Keynes stores? I'd really like one but it's a bit of a trek if they've not got them in or they're full price!!!!

    Hi Everyone
    Not sure how to do links (esp not shorten them!) so don't know if the following will work ( i just copied and pasted the url thingy :confused: )

    this fcuk bag was reduced in Reading Broad Street to £5.xx but still £15 in the Oracle.

    http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplaystoreId=10052&productId=45846&callingViewName=&langId=-1&catalogId=11051

    Also http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&productId=9851&callingViewName=&langId=-1&catalogId=11051

    in 500ml was reduced to £10.xx in the Oracle whereas the 250ml is normally £14. would have got the shower stuff (I think Skibster mentioned it) at £7.xx but the SA wasn't going to give me the gwp so just bought the honey drops cream.

    Still 2 berry bags in BS 32p ones yesterday ( I know I said I was going to stay away but took ds into town so HAD to pop in :rotfl:

    hope this post comes out ok.

    I know it's already been posted that these aren't the russian doll bags but just to let you know theses are Daisy de Villeneuve bags.

    I got the hanging wash bag which is a really lovely layout once opened and great for £3. I'm going to keep a lookout for a makeup bag now.

    Bought one too!

    To make ickle links, type what you want the linky text to be (In the one above I put "Link made tiny", highlight it with your mouse and click the button above the text box which looks like a globe. Paste the URL of the link in and Bob's your linky uncle.

    my original post dissappeared so take 2...

    Sorry still catching up so hadn't read this when I posted before. I've read and re-read this but am still confused :o will read again and then try it out. thanks for putting instructions but sometimes I think I am beyond help when it comes to computer stuff :rotfl:
