:A I was good and not tempted by the BS 60% sale, still have 2 Groupon BS vouchers to use soon, almost feel like I am being swamped by BS goodies just now :eek:
I used my foam party voucher today, as it's on special offer at Mr B, it took £2 off ther rest of my shopping! :rotfl::T:j Bought some Sanctuary in order to get the free box for spending over £10 and also got 300 points too :j so actually didn't cost me all that much!
The box will go into the gift pile, but I have more gifts that friendsso my BFs mum and his gran do quite well out of my glitches!
Alos got the Boots mailing, there's a couple of interesting coupons.
Also thought about S&G as it's 1/3 off, may spend points on it but not decided yet.
I've been looking at Tesco DTD thread, but not had time to go, I'm off tomorrow so think I will venture in tomorrow with a list :rotfl: Off to check the grabbit board!Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

I've binned the instructions now but I'm fairly certain that there are strong variations in the email from the guidelines in the box.
Bit late sending this now, isn't it, Clairol? Shouldn't you have sent this last week?
Hi
I got the email too and completely agree with you that (as far as I can recall) the information in the email differs greatly from the instructions in the box. I am pretty sure that nothing was originally said about 'just shaking the bottle 3 times'.
I will probably use my freebie voucher at the weekend and will hope for a better experience when I apply the hair dye next time.0 -
Oh, yes and almost forgot while I was in Mr B noticed Veet have a promotion on their new moisturising lotion with hair removal which they are offering your money back if it doesn't work :j it says look on their website but can't find any mention of it, has anyone else tried this?:)Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.

But honestly getting a full time job whether or not its in Tesco or anywhere else is my priority, I litterally have no money coming in after next month, can't claim JSA, can't get help from folks and OH's salary will only just cover the bills - absolute nightmare at the moment!
Good news is after realising how dire the future is looking I am not buying anymore toiletries lol :rotfl:
Oh Charlie - at least you're keeping your sense of humour through all of this.Fingers crossed for things to start turning the other way for you.
Happy Birthday Bev97 - Hope you had a lovely day with lots of nice gifts.
Sawan - That was very bad of you - trying to lure us all:rotfl: - I have enough nail polish and have resisted all of this cackle stuff but that B**ts linky looks very nice.

Alert, MSE update:
UPDATE 23 March 16.55. Clinton Cards has changed its terms and conditions so you can no longer buy a £1 giftcard and get a £5 one free. Instead there is a minimum spend of £5.
Boo hoo! Also, offer doesn't start until the 28th. The offer will probably only be worth it now if you buy a gift card for a shop that you need to buy something from anyway. I may get a BHS voucher as I often get stuff from there but will definitely have to give it more thought now.

Happy birthday Bev!
Afraid I gave in to the Body Shop goodies - I chose the Shea set as I really like it *runs to naughty step*.
Also used up a Lush Ego massage bar and opened a tub of Body Shop Cocoa Butter Body Butter that I've had for about a year. Oops - it was still fine though!Sealed Pot Challenge Number 1225

Fingers crossed for thevicster and Charlietheonlynuttytart wrote: »ive also been on the tesco thread and have relapsed and bought the herbal essences shampoo and conditioner ..... i have justified it by
1) its the shampoo and conditioner i use so completely necessary!
2) it may be completely free when tesco confirm tomorrow
3) im nearly at the end of both my current bottles
4) i wont need any more for a long time......
not sure i can sneak this past but im going to try heh heh!
i nearly made it to the end of the month .... ahhhh well!
Well......I bought the herbal essences shampoo and conditiioner toojust waiting for my voucher to come through. The plastic box I keep shampoo/conditioner in had a few empty spaces so I figure I'm ok. My girls seem to get through them quick enough.
My car broke down todayluckily I'd just passed a garage so I ended up leaving it with them while they find and fit a replacement part. Then had to walk 50 mins home but at least the sun was shining which helped. So I made dp drive me to tesco tonight so i could get the things on my shopping list. All he kept saying was .."I hope you know what you're doing!" :rotfl:
