Finished a Botanics body moisturiser last night. Need a break from these, but at least I finished the last of the body butters a while ago. Bought 3 handwashes because I was down to my last one, so hopefully that's ok
Other than that, still on the waggon

Went to superdrug and boots today - bought nothing. Well I did buy the Sanctuary facial oil as I had a £5 skincare voucher and £5 sanctuary voucher which made it £6! It's also a nice treat when I'm by myself. Still not made a dent in my stash really! x0

went slightly mad in the pound shop today! Mostly for OH's stocking fillers but i also got myself some talc and some of those pearl drops toothpaste to try.0

Not been on in while, but a couple of UU's to report!
Lush Blackberry bath ballistic
wiba? yes i love it, but i still have another in my stash to use up!
Lush The Comforter Shower gel 500g
wiba? yes, again i love it, but it was a limited edition forum special.
Lush Charity Pot
wiba? Maybe not, i like the idea of it all the money made from it goes to charity. But i don't think it is anything special and doesn't actually smell of anything (i don't think so anyway)
Clinique Liquid Facial Wash in mild
wiba? maybe, i have used this for years, have now been using the Neutrogena pink grapefruit wash, and i think i like it better tbh! Plus it is much cheaper than the clinique!
And one IN:
T Gel Shampoo
It was needed though, my scalp goes through stages of being ok, to being ridiculously itchy and flakey, and this is the only thing that seems to work on it! Paid with Boots point though, so i don't feel so bad about it!
I am away in for a bath now, hoping to use more more Lush goodies up tonight!0 -
Awwwwwwwwwww how nice of them!!!!! :A That is really lovely.
Our SAs wouldn't do that, they are total beatches. When I went to get my P&P set yesterday, the evil No7 SA took it off the shelf for me before I'd even touched it and insisted on ringing it in - with only one GWP!!! Thankfully I had to get something else as well so just took it and put it in my basket, then swiped another GWP on the way to the SS tills, I am wise to their ways.:T
Wow Tara -I wish I had your nerve!:T
Was a bit naughty today and bought 2 Revlon photoready foundations today - they were part of the 3-4-2 so I got urban decay lipgloss as stocking filler for DD to make up the three.
Also bought S&G shower gel as down to the last shower gel and really like this one
As if that wasn't enough I went to the continental market and treated myself to some argan oil for my hair -my stash is never going to go down!:eek:0 -

I got some argan oil in Morocco, never used it though, any tips ladies??
LOL @ your first comment, it really is easy just to smile sweetly and feign complete innocence! There was nothing she could do anyway, short of following me around the store lol. Maybe they've all been told to only give one GWP per spend, and she was afraid that I would try to get two GWPs past one of the SAs at the ordinary tills. It was no problem at all - and once it was through I was really thrilled, both GWPs were on the receipt so it was all legit and above board! Our (huge) local store has only had SS tills for a few months, they are manna from heaven for Bootsing lol. :TGet to 119lbs! 1/2/09: 135.6lbs 1/5/11: 145.8lbs 30/3/13 150lbs 22/2/14 137lbs 2/6/14 128lbs 29/8/14 124lbs 2/6/17 126lbs

When I was getting my haul, I couldn't find the GWP's so I asked an assistant. She had one in her hand and said she could give me one and I said I needed more. She peeped in my basket and said "Oh yes, you can have 2" "Erm 3 actually as I have 3 products?" "Well how much are they?" "£35..." "Oh yes, you should be able to get 3 then. So I waited until she'd gone and added the 4th to my basket. I was worried about alarms going off when I scanned it or something but it all went in fineDebt: 16/04/2007:TOTAL DEBT [strike]£92727.75[/strike] £49395.47:eek: :eek: :eek: £43332.28 repaid 100.77% of £43000 target.MFiT T2: Debt [STRIKE]£52856.59[/STRIKE] £6316.14 £46540.45 repaid 101.17% of £46000 target.2013 Target: completely clear my [STRIKE]£6316.14[/STRIKE] £0 mortgage debt. £6316.14 100% repaid.0
