No, please no more. I avoided the Clinton Cards deal yesterday because I just don't need anything else from TBS. Mind you I opened the Sweet Lemon body scrub yesterday and don't think that wee tub is going to go very far!

thevicster, fixx and valm have you guys seen/tried this?

No, I bought the OPI Black Shatter for my daughter and tried this but don't really like the effect on my nails.

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.

Actually, I think this is right. Don't get me wrong it's nice to get a bargain but I thought milking Clinton Cards for a TBS voucher. I know that's the essence of this website but think this was a step too far.

Had one UU yesterday. A Sure deodorant. Had another one to open. Don't have a HG deodorant - just buy whichever roll on is on offer when I need them.

Whats the BS offer? Just for information I obviously wouldn't dream of using it.

That flipping S&G Righteous Butter just keeps going. I was sure it would have been UU last night. But, despite my best efforts it's got another day at least.

I did UU the S&G Hand food that i cut open the other day. Last night one foot had hand food and the other one had heel genius. I can't tell the difference to be honest.

Had a little look at the Body Shop bundles and am NOT TEMPTED! Quite like the look of the Vitamin E stuff, but have too much facial stuff to even consider! Anyway, am thinking that the Clinque moisture surge may be my HG, really seems to suit my skin
moisture surge is my HG too,managed to get some in the glamour mag:)plus a GWP of a 30 ml pot so lots in stash,great in summer and winter for dry skin.
still testing the Boots serums but really do not like the smell(and strangely always smell it before applying!!!!)

p.s. non nails junkies please do not fall into the trap we're already in!!

charlie, sorry to hear about your computer but relieved your dissertation was mostly backed up :T
rosemary I thought I''d gotten away from the temptations of TBS

I love doing extra courses at the local adult education college. Since I finished uni a few years ago, I've done 2 years of Mandarin Chinese classes, 1 year of Arabic, and currently doing watercolours

Nooooooo, I hadn't seen that! I now I want, as I wanted a light crackle colour to use over darker nailpolishes :rotfl:Hmm, will think about it. It'll be at least a week before I'm within striking distance of a Boots again, so will consider seriously how much I want it

happy birthday bev:beer:
celebrate- my friend has a thyroid problem so I knew about the hair falling out easily, but my doctor did say I had low levels of iron so may start taking iron supplements. Thankyou

juliebunny- I was going to say, you don't need the clinique moisturiser, I don't think it's any better than nivea soft:(

Celebrate, thank for the advice re. thyroid/hair loss - I should be taking more multivits anyway, so i'll start with that (and eating more fresh veg ). If I notice any extreme amounts of hair disappearing in future though, I'll def have it checked out!

Agree about the Clinique DD moisturiser - I think it's slightly better than Nivea soft, but not much. Having said that, DD lotion is a HG for me, so I'll still keep on with it, and it's great knowing there is a much cheaper option available if I need it :T

Some uu for me last night, am on a bit of a roll this week but have nearly finished all my part used bits and pieces:

binned - No7 soft and soothed cleanser, have tried this on 3 separate occasions for about a week or so at a time and each time my skin has become spotty. Not too surprising as it is for normal/dry and I have combination skin but I bought it with the first ever £5 off no7 voucher that I used and my little boots store didn't have the other cleanser. The Balanced version is lovely and works a treat for me and as I only had about 1/3 of a bottle of the S&S left I didn't feel too bad binning it.

uu - Gok Gorgeous bubble bath from the coffret set - lovely and i will miss this although I am using the gold body wash as bubble bath now.

uu - Tommy Girl perfume - wiba - yes at £12 which this was.
uu - BS spiced vanilla body butter - loved this, hope they do it next christmas.

Opened a tube of Olay Regenerist thermal cleanser this week and it is not heating up, not even vaguely warm, rang Olay and they are sending me a voucher to replace it, has anyone else had this problem?

Have resisted the BS 60% thingy so far, is it in store too does anyone know? I like the look of the Shea bundle.

I know it was awful of me, but it just looked so nice! That's exactly the reason I want it, a nice lighter shade for the darker polishes I did go yesterday, the colour looked really nice in store, but off to the vitality show today hopefully, so will see if I get anything there. But I guess for £3.99 it can't be bad. Unfortunately 17 is on 342, so tempted by other items, but definitely not other nail polishes

Aww that's a shame I loved the look on lighter nails, but definitely not on bolder/darker colours. Hence the 17 one appealing to me

No more UUs for me. Still got splutterers going strong
