    Yummy, tablet is amazing yet so incredibly sickly after a few bites. Mainly sugar too (bye bye waistline!! :rotfl:)

    I'm attempting to make HM pizza, eek :eek::eek:.

    I'm thinking of offering pamper paxkages i.e. like the 'holiday package' - bikini, eyebrow and underarm wax, manicure/pedicure etc. Will need to work out prices etc but would this be a good idea??

    Obviously would offer seperate options too :D.

    That's a brilliant idea!!! :T I always get in a tizz before a holiday, trying to work out what i need to do to look 'ok'!!! I think that's great - people always want to start the wind-down to holidays too so that'd be a great way to get them in the holiday spirit. I don't know if you do tans or if that could also be a possibility - i always worry about that 1st day in the bikini, snowy white. Maybe you could also sell some of the products as part of that package - like spray in hair conditioner for when you leave the pool, sun cream, those spritz colling sprays etc..

    Trust that little voice in your head that says "Wouldn't it be interesting if...";
    And then do it.

    Sounds good to me, what is it you do just waxing and nails or other stuff? you could do like set packages and then pick some that are of a similar value and list them and do pick 2 for however much

    Evening all,
    Hope you have all enjoyed the sunshine. I have been in the garden most of the day. Got seeds sown and sorted out my strawberry plants. Had a lovely day but nothing moneymaking unfortunately.

    Amber When my youngest son was about 3 (hes 36 now) He said he was never going to get married as you couldn't marry someone you liked. I asked him why and he said that the man (meaning the priest) says Will you take this woman to be your awful wedded wife?

    Lol Rosie that's brilliant! :-)

    I think that's a great idea about the packages- would have to do one without waxing for the scared ( like me!) the pick and mix type scheme could work?

    Off to bed I think, always get tired when I've been out in the sun- strange!
  • Nikki - Prom packages, it is coming up to that time of year! Most salon do them and for the lot, nails, hair (put up not cut), makeup, they charge something like £60-100. Get a little ad in the local paper, our local salon had girls queueing for it and between the three of them they must have rattled off half the village in rotation!

    God I wish you lived closer, I could do with some pampering!
