roshydoshy, thanks for mentioning that the campaign was still open, I've just signed up to it. It's DH's birthday tomorrow so that can be his birthday present! I wasn't planning on buying him anything in particular so this is a result as he struggles out of bed in the winter. So happy now!

Nooo! When did you sign up? I just did and it was closed!

It might be because roshy and I have done surveys before? You have to build up a certain level of status to get priority access to these high value tests. Do go on and join up for whatever you are offered though, you may get a fab test soon (Not like splenda, I didn't like that!).

Thanks for the tip. Have just done a few surveys. I'm still a solitary bee, though. What are you guys?

The use up fairy has been!


Finally used up an Olive Oil soap that was...ahem, dishonourably acquired from a hotel in Poland. Would I dishonourably acquire again? Probably, soap is soap

A Mum deodrant- Would I buy again? Yes, apart from they have discontinued the bottle size and replaced it with a farty little one (FOR THE SAME PRICE!) I'm angry about this because I really do love the smell of the pink one.

Just started on a new johnson's talcum powder because I adore the smell. Also, last night I went through my make up and found an unused lipstick that i didn't like the colour of, so I have mixed it in with a dying tin of vaseline and some coconut oil- WOW. It's so glossy and subtle

Have a nice day

I'm also a busy bee! If you do three reviews on the 'Frogpond' I think you get an additional honeycomb (which gets you closer to busy bee status ) and fill in any surveys available as they all add kudos to your account!

I'll send over the voucher but I will let you know how it goes...hope it's worth it! On another note, you may pick up one cheap on eBay if someone has ordered it to flog at a profit?

Kaz, in case you are wondering about delivery timescales, mine turned up within about a week so it was quicker than I expected!x

@roshydoshy @tara Debenhams cancelled my order for the 1 cent showergels:( Didn't need them anyway but I like a bargain.

I'm going to the Boots 75% sale too but after that I am taking this challenge very seriously because I have way too much beauty clutter.

Does anybody have any of the Joules cosmetics sets from Boots? That's what I want in the 75% sale (+ a Ferne Cotton hat box).

Gillyx

I've failed already couldn't resist Boots the other day.

Protect and Perfect Beauty Serum (in my defence I had a £5 off voucher and a coupon for 250 extra points with any No7 Purchase)
2 x Johnsons Daily Moisturiser for Dry Skin (£4.07 each or 2 for £4)
2 large tins of Sure for £3

Oh what a bummer!! It would have been amazing if it had worked!!
Hope you get some bargains in Boots to make up for it!

I am also a busy bee,I refused to do the light test but am wishing I had done now:(the thought of paying out £40 was a bit too much!

I did the splenda test but did not like the taste and threw the sugar sub away,used to like getting coupons in the good old days when Mr T accepted all coupons but now I usually get my shopping delivered either free from Waitrose or when Tesco send me a free points offer....which is why I bought 3 deodorants today:rotfl:to qualify for points....funny thing ,the man left me the next shoppers paperwork by mistake,my slot was 11 to 1 and hers was 10 to 12 ,I got mine 1st and my delivery charge was £3.50 and hers £4???????
still have some of the small toothpastes left which are usful for DH when he travels.
he has a conference call today and will be told who are the 6% of workers being laid off:(:(:(:(happy new year?????
just watched the news and if all the banks gave the bonuses to the gov then they could clear the national debt!!!If only.

also bought some hair dye as have been going lighter gradually and decided that it does not suit so tomorrow am back to med brown:):)

had a look at all the Lush boxes I bought in the sales OMG when will I ever use them all?????put them in the wicker hamper I bought half price in the sales:rotfl:now also got strange food to use up!

do recomend that you ladies sign up for the buzz site also 2 others I am on which pay well ,pinecone(hard to get an invite) and consumer pulse where you simple list your purchases for clothes/books/make up and get paid 50p up to £10 a month plus extra surveys too,they asked me to sign up for some software but last time I did that with a site it screwed my computer and I still cannot get Google:(I do loads of surveys and made about £1200 last year:)

finally did PYNM last night,am playing at being a mermaid with turquoise toes:rotfl:
