    I'd say Boots - but that's just me, as you'd also earn advantage points on you purchase so the money would go further that way.

    Well done anyway...you must be so proud! I know I would be. I was one of those horrible Mums who put their little girls in beauty competitions when DD1 was a baby. I was chuffed to bits when she won a prize - but gutted she didn't come first. :o
    I :heartpuls M.S.E.

  • I feel like I'm on a go slow as far as money making is going this last few weeks:eek: cant seem to get into anything, not done any daily clicks and cant be bothered with surveys really need a kick up the rear end (Elysia if you listening you give me a good kick last month:D) well we are off on holiday on monday so not going to get anything done next week, hopefully the break will give me the push I need to get back into things.
    :D:D:D:D:D

    Ooh, I forgot about Boots points! I've changed my mind, go for Boots especially if you think you'd waste the Asda ones.
