    :o Yes I discovered this at the till! What an amateur I am!

    Anyway the SA had a real attitude too, so in a fit of pique I left it and walked out! Will get it on Thursday somewhere. Don't mind paying, I know I like it!!

    Shame! I find Boots SAs very variable, some are lovely and some are witches!!! :(
    I've ''acquired'' some make up, but Ididn't buy it. My mother had bought a Laura Mercier Peach Moasaic shimmer block that she doesn't want or like so I've nabbed it.

    Lucky you :):):) - I mean, tut!!!! :rotfl:

    Yes, er, shhh!!!!!! :rotfl:

    I ordered 2 papaya lip butters and a set of muslin cloths for £4 delivered. I'd been waiting for a free delivery day tbh, but still feel a bit guilty! How did you get on? xo

    Just had a look at my online bank account from the 1 March up until yesterday I spent £98 in boots.:eek:I'm so ashamed of myself .
    I did return a perfume set on sunday for a £24.66 refund but then spent £7.99 on the photo loreal foundation so I could use the loreal £2 voucher-To justify buying it I convinced myself that I would use this foundation after I've had baby to look nice in photos:oI then spent £1.25 on a no7 nailpolish in a light manicure peach shade and £4.50 on 2 ruby&millie brushes to use my acm voucher for 750 points.So my real refund was £10.92.
    I am not buying any toiletries at all in April-I shall repeat this mantra all month I shall not, must not, will not buy any toiletries!
    P.s -For some unexplainable reason I've been thinking about the amami setting lotion that is being discontinued, I've never tried or used it but all the fuss about it being unavailable is getting on my nerves , this morning I even felt like buying a bottle just in case.

    when my sister was young (and so was i ) she wanted soft wavy pre-raphelite style waves, i plaited her hair all over in little tiny plaits and put about 3/4 of a bottle of amarmi setting lotion on promsing to deplait and brush the next morning before sunday school. Well i unplaited and started brushing out............ does anyone remember crystal tips off crystal tips and alistair, cos that what my poor sister looked like- a tad too much armarmi i think:rotfl:. boy did she cry especially when mum said she didnt have time too rewash it before church. poor kds had to wear a big wooly bobble hat to try and hide the mess. it took about a week for her to speak to me.
    what im saying is if you havent tried it by now trust me you wont miss it. (my sister certainly wont;))
