    Just been to Boots,Albion Street,Leeds and checked out the clearance shelves.
    Lots of mens Refinery skincare products,have already forgotten how much they were but I think they were about £3.00.Three or four umbrellas to attach to a pushchair which I think were the same price.Lots of nit combs,condoms,batteries none of which I can remember the prices of, sorry.Will try harder in future!!Hope this helps someone.:embarasse

    I saw those last week too...never heard of it. Just looked it up on .com, HERE is some of what there is. The whole range is on clearance @ £3 each!!

    It's on 342 on .com so maybe instore too??

    Is this your sort of thing mimi? Worth giving it a go for 3 quid dontcha think

    Is this still on? i haven't been to Boots for a while and was in one today but they hadn't this advertised... so i thought it's over :mad: (as I really wanted one... just got a lousy sharpener as I haven't found anything else interesting)

    Yes I bought one today...well yesterday now!

    Oops, realised I didn't really make myself clear there. By 'other board' I meant the proboards one that was set up when the forum went down for maintenance the other weekend. Does anyone know what's happened with that? I think it was liverbird that set it up? TIA :)

    MissBailey, I believe the proboard set up by Liverbird is thriving well, and most people are over there chatting instead.

    Why don't you PM Liverbird explaining you cannot access your account?

    I couldn't seem to find the 'right' Liverbird which is why I posted here but I've just found her! Thanks! :)
