Roshy, Clarks village is in Street which is next door to Glastonbury. Maybe when you go for the festival, you could swing by Street on your way home and not buy anything? :rotfl:. (Sorry!)
I don't like the shop at Street, in fact, I don't actually like TBS products much at all. Maybe it's the having to work through a vanilla set which smelled like playdough? I can't think of anything there which would tempt me to shop there, espescially as I lurve sanctuary products so much. I think there is much nicer, much cheaper stuff in B**ts so I will continue to shop there (when the stash has gone!) and collect my AC points. Other than that, I shall just keep tarting around.
I had a really scaly forhead the other night (nice :rotfl:) but I seem to have got rid of it this morning. Used my Olay stuff and then put the No7 night cream on. I no longer look like a dragon
TTFN, Kaz
Hi Kaz,
I went to the Clarks village outlet last summer en route to a trip to Bath, and wasn't that impressed with it. I didn't think it was that cheap - the last sale (2 for 1 on sale items) was better value.
Having said that, if it was closer, I would probably 'pop in' every now and then!
Still agonising over the weekend £5 off Body shop since it will only be £3 after I've bought the paper - is anyone else going for it?
Oh and I asked the SA today where all the old stuff goes and she's didn't know (sorry Roshy - brazil nut gone walkies) - she did say there used to be an outlet in Woolwich but she didn't know any now.....:(Less stuff, more life, love, laughter and cats!
Even if I'm on the shopping threads, it doesn't mean I'm buying! Sometimes it's good to just look and then hit the CLOSE button!0 -

on the way home? :rotfl: i might be a little pongy and muddy by then - hey, maybe I could swing some freebies out of it just to get out of the shop :rotfl: except on the journey back to sunny old luton i'll be itching to try any new purchase out on my dirty skin :eek:

that's probably a good thing :rotfl: i'm sure we'd be rushing there this evening! Woolwich is a biiiiiiit too far for me!0 -
One UU
Body Shop passionfruit cleansing gel - WIBA? I couldnt if I wanted to as its discontinued. Luckily I've got 8 more bottles of the stuffIt's my HG face wash and has been for ....oooooh..... about 15 years! :eek:
Two throw-aways.....
Avon perfect wear extralasting eyeshadow - soft mint. WIBA - no, Whilst it does last, you could hardly see I'd put it on in the first place. Not sure I liked the cold feeling when I put it on either as its more like a cream rather than a powder.
Models prefer lip-pencil - part of a set of 4 I got for xmas. This one smells rank!!!! _pale_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:wave:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 -

a/ just buy a 50ml moisture surge £30 and use the code to get £3 off...should still get free delivery as beauty club member
a/buy moisture surge and concealer pen total cost £45 but then get a free moisture surge 15mls(therefore worth £9)
c/see if the goody bag becomes available online tomorrow and if not forget the whole thing and go and buy the 2 items in town to get gwp.
d/ consider ending it all as life too short to worry about such nonsense!
there is also a mention of an elemis freebie on the site but this did not appear in my basket! life used to be so much simpler!
There's a Moisture Surge 30ml in the GWP, so I'd take that option if I were you.

Quick Question about the BS Loyalty Card:
when you register do they check ID? I was thinking it might be beneficial to suddenly find my birthday is now in January rather than June
also - do you think/know if you can get the card with the £5 Telegraph Voucher? Making it cost only £2 not £5

erm i don't think they did - how bad is that i paid for one and never even collected my present from themi always shop BS online as the deals are so much better so never get around to going instore!
I was never asked for any ID when I opened mine but I'm not sure if you would have to present it to the till with your ard when you buy? I'm sure that they are just after you £5 for the card so won't really worry too much about when you claim it as you can only claim it once!0 -
One UU to report. Essential care ylang ylang shower gel. WIBA? Yes, but once my stocks are more depleted!
Moving on to L'occitane shea butter shower cream now. Am on stuff from my birthday last July so that must be progress
Another £1 in the pot too.
Thanks for this thread guys, its really helping me. I like reading about others products too, gives me ideas for when I need things again.Not buying unnecessary toiletries 2024 26/53 UU, 25 IN0
