    Just popped some course books into my amazon basket but not paid for yet - will wait until the weekend to get them - and bought the used ones of course to bring the price down by a lot!

    Forgive me BDINI for I have sinned, it's been....errr...1, 2...errr....a long time since my last NSD day and today I purchased some new foundation (mine ran out this morning), new eyeshadow (mine is literally in crumbs and it's not supposed to be), a new kabuki brush (as my current one is shedding like a cat), and got a free blusher (which I didn't need but it was free so might eBay). I also hunted the high street for Glamour and finally found one that a) some little oik hadn't nicked the Clinique sample out of b) had a sample that I wanted. So all in all I've spent about £22 today :o:o:o

    How many licks of the paintbrush is that? :eek:

    Hmmm i shall have to think about that one :rotfl::rotfl:

    I have been seriously tempted by the glamour offer too, wonder how long i'll be able to hold out :eek: (i'm secretly hoping they sell out before i can get round to it!!)

    Thank you to everyone's warm wishes about the car :) I'm trying not to think about how much it's likely to cost, as I can't do anything about it until the weekend anyway.

    Monday and Tuesday were both spendy days, but I'm reporting #3 today :D

    Hopefully tomorrow should be number 4 but I'll get back to you on that!

    Well, its not really no-smoking, but its a lot less than it used to be!! Down to less than 20 a week (unless I party too hard at the weekend!) and most days just the one when I get back from work so I'm kind of pleased with that. Would be better if it was none though!

    How're things as the new mistress of the NSD thread?! Its a busy one this month! xx
    Trying to jump back onto the moneysaving wagon .... :cool:

    Hmmm i shall have to think about that one :rotfl::rotfl:

    I have been seriously tempted by the glamour offer too, wonder how long i'll be able to hold out :eek: (i'm secretly hoping they sell out before i can get round to it!!)

    I may as well confess that I will be on the look out for other mags with the samples tomorrow too .... (though as I was thinking about buying some full sized items to try from b**ts, but stopped myself and decided to wait until Bonus time, it's not as bad as it might have been :o).

    If I just stick to the mags, I am wondering whether I can declare a NSD tomorrow - usually my rules are any use of cash or card = spend day, but I would have bought the mags today had they had what I wanted on them - answers on a postcard please :)

    Also, my OH did say I could use his change that's on top of the draws...but I think he might have meant more for things like milk and bread ...:rotfl::o:rotfl:

    Tattooed_Lady - hope you're feeling better soon, I'm in the same boat, straight into my pjs when I got in from work for 2 days running and tonight is actually a late night for me. If I'm not sneezing I'm blowing my nose, and if i'm not doing that, I've got my head over a bowl of vicks....

    Big hugs to everyone else who is also under the weather (seems to be a lot of it about, I'm not normally one for catching things but this is my second cold since oct) :grouphug:
