    Sorry the pics are so big, I just posted them from photobucket. I don't know how to resize them.
    Once they're uploaded you should be able to hover over them and click "edit" then resize - I do it with percentages so I can make them for example 50% size.

    Does that make sense?

    Yes, I'll try it next time. Will post some more pics next week. Might gather up all the cleansers for a photo.

    Anyone got Soap+Glory pics?

    Don't shout at me :A

    Was in boots and got some toothpaste, 59p and 3 x wrinkle reducing night serum (rrp £6 each). The serums were reduced to £1.50 each and I used my skinnie and a 50 points when you buy any 'smile' product. So the serums were free and the toothpaste 9p.

    I still didn't buy a magazine though :cool:;):D

    Actually, that just about sums up the attitude of everyone I know!!
    I have got to learn to shop like you, Tara, and Bronnie. I never heard of glitches, grabbits and bootsing until I came on this thread.

    No, you have got to learn to stop shopping!!! :o :rotfl:

    Body Butters
    Berts bees orange and honey body lotion 236ml (used a couple of times)
    Body Shop Body butters 200ml x 3
    No7 Completely drenched body lotion 200ml
    M&S shea body butter 200ml (1/3 used)
    Palmers Coco butter 250ml (½ used)
    S&G The Daily Smooth 250ml (my fave) x 2
    S&G Butter up 200ml x 2
    FCUK Body Lotion 75ml
    FCUK Whipped body cream 75ml (½ used)

    so 13 in total, 9 unopened

    oh plus the daily smooth I'm currently using, so 14 in total. It'll take me all year to use that lot up!!

    Yikes, it would take me about three!!! A tub of body butter lasts me about 2-3 months even with almost daily use!

    Here's my Boots sale haul. Same pic as the other thread, I'm too lazy for taking pics just now.



    and a prize from before Christmas


    and what I got for €5.50 with snowie vouchers


    Sorry the pics are so big, I just posted them from photobucket. I don't know how to resize them.

    Great haul!!! :T If you're looking to get rid of some of the No7 moisturising gloves, I missed these while the snowy promotion was on so would happily buy a pair from you if you wanted xo


    p.s. welcome to the newbies, good to have you on board!!!

    I bought some toiletries today, some of the No7 gloves with the 1 snowy I had - £1 to pay, and some toothpaste for my son from QS (he on his last tube).

    On a good point I did manage to resist all the BTHP toiletries in Morrisons, though I must admit I was very tempted.

    I am using things up and the pile should be reducing but still looks the same :eek:

    Ooh - lovely stuff - I think I've got a pot of that in the cupboard too. I'm currently using the Sanctuary "Creme Souffle" which is also realy nice.
    I gave my last remaining cc to my dh about 2 weeks ago now.
    I think that's the only thing that has kept me more or less on the straight and narrow. :o

    Well done SA! If you've not got it, you can't use it can you! :T

    Ooh, I LOVE to tango :)
    I prefer the Argentine version, though. It's so nice to dance, and all of the people I've met that dance it are lovely too :)

    Have a wonderful night at your ball!
  • Just trying to catch up on the thread... you lot talk too much, even I can't keep up.

    Salesaddict - LOL at 'a penny saved is a penny wasted'... I can sort of see the reasoning behind it though. My dad is an absolute miser and gets no enjoyment from his money! We've all got to treat ourselves sometimes... it's knowing just where to draw the line that's my problem :o

    Mags30 - You did so well only spending €5.50 and getting all that lot! Which reminds me, I really want some of those moisturising gloves.

    Anyway, I've just painted my nails with Bourjois So Laque 'Beige Glamour' (one that I got for 50p at TJ Hughes last week). It's a nice colour but hardly shows up on me as it's practically the same colour as my skin.
