Both Prima and another mag I had on direct debit now say it will be going up from £12 a year to £20:eek::eek::eek:they point out it is still cheap compared to buying in shops(yes but we don't get the freebies:()but I decided to cancel the dds as a/ think it is too much of a price rise b/ can get them elsewhere with ipoints or similar and c/ never seem to get round to reading them as too busy on MSE threads thesedays:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
I buy my subscription with Tesco points, think you can probably do it with Nectar points too...
UU to report- Timotei golden highlights shampoo WIBA for sure, smells nice, leaves my hair really soft and about 20 times cheaper than the TIGI I so adore but decided to cut back a couple of months ago.Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -

Thanks so much for providing the quote - it is now proudly sitting within the opening post of this thread :T!0 -
Does anyone who uses a body puff also use body scrubs as well. I've thought about putting my shower gel in one of my liquid soap pump bottles and using a body puff I've got but also have body scrubs to use up as well and didn't want to scrub my skin too much.Did owe £9,951.96

I do lynseydee. I don't find I'm overscrubbed. In fact, I get scaly knees in the winter.

Thanks Kaz, I might decant some now then, although it probably means my shower gel is going to last twice as long which with 56 shower gels I don't know if that's a good thing or not :rotfl:Did owe £9,951.96

I have to be a bit careful with puffs and scrubs, but that's because I body-brush to get my circulation going, so my skin is already tingly before it even gets wet.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0
