Is anyone else watching that superscrimpers programme? If we think we overspend there's a family on there who had a joint income of £108,000 but still manage to overspend by over £30,000 a year :eek:

How the other half live eh?

Yes, I watched this -it was amazing how much clothing the lady of that family had that wasn't even unwrapped, wasn't it? I wonder if make up and toiletries will feature?

It was Channel 4 and is available on 4od, I missed it too cos I was watching Midsomer and forgot all about it. Sounds like a fascinating watch though!! I don't earn 30k let alone overspend by that much!! Its mind boggling to me.

Morning all

Thought I would post before I catch up on the thread. Feeling better today, walking much better on my foot so trying to stay positive and don't think I'll go to the doctors just go back on my tablets for a while and see how it goes.

Anyway, I did watch last nights episode of superscrimpers (not sure about some of the tips though) and then checked out the website and people have posted there own hints and tips -see link http://www.channel4.com/programmes/superscrimpers-waste-not-want-not/articles/superscrimpers-we-want-you

Someone said if you ever run out of hair conditioner (er....never going to happen) you could use clothes conditioner instead:eek:. No way is that good advice - my scalp would be on fire with that chemical concoction. Although has anyone tried it?:D

No UU but one IN - having my Sainsburys groceries delivered today and have ordered a Method handwash for £2 as I am sick of my kids wasting my best handwash in the bathroom - I will hide it and save it for myself!
Have a good Thursday everyone!

Morning all!

i watched superscrimpers too. There is no way that farm lady is living off nettle pasta ( which looked truly disgusting) and eggs. She is packing something else away everyday, can't believe Miss Moneypenny didn't bring this up. I'm not thin but then again I'm not pretending I live off the land.

The family who earned £108K really annoyed me, it's not just about money, there is a bigger picture too, all that waste. They have children who need to have a future. It infuriates me that people can afford to waste fuel etc so they just do.

LOL - she doesn't exactly seem to be skint either if she has 30 acres of land - seems to me it's her lifestyle choices, rather than necessity.

That new Ford fiesta was great, I would have taken it in a shot - he made himself look like a right ar*e didn't he!

Had anyone else written this I would have though they were joking but not actually sure about XOXO - great name by the way, LOL! I really should have been more imaginative when making up my user name :rotfl:

Oooooh nearly forgot, UU my S&G Girligo! Quite like it but not the pump spray cos once your hands are covered in it, it gets slippy and hard to spray. I know a few people here don't rate it. WIBA - not sure, but have another one in my stash from some gift set or other!!

Just been clearing up my dressing table....well, not really started with the dressing table itself yet but I have sorted through my nail varnishes. I have also now found a use for the pretty Clinique tin as it is a good size for the shorter bottles - the No7 sized square ones live in a little box. 4 thrown away through going gloopy, one to the Avon freebies box as it was still in its packaging and it really isn't a colour I will wear, and a final count of 46 different ones, which I have to admit to being a little lower than I thought it would be. Found so many lovely colours too - of course now I want to use them ALL!

Where do I start?? One UU last week that I forgot,
Colgate Pro-Sensitive Toothpaste - WIBA? Maybe, I buy whatever's on offer, though usually I prefer Sensodyne.
Yesterday,
Clinique Makeup Remover for Lips, Lids & Lashes - 125ml - WIBA? At some point - maybe with a really nice GWP. I have the one I got with G magazine, then might try the L'Oreal one recommended to me here.

juliebunny - I'm not a fan of bath bombs (like ducky I think!!), and some really are hit and miss. Though I really liked one of the white ones I had in the Lush xmas set of ballistics.

Sofababe - I love EA She too. So lovely of the seller to pop some samples in as well

xoxo - I thought I was nail varnish mad!! But that is a [STRIKE]lovely [/STRIKE] terribly huge haul Out of curiosity what's the total number of nail polishes you have?

charlie - application all done?

minerva - hope the interview goes well!

thevicster and pudsey - we've started a nail varnish revolution!! :rotfl::rotfl:

I'm sorry xoxo, me and thevicster are far too scared of juliebunny to tell you about crackle... Although maybe pics might be along later... But I'm NOT telling you what it is!

sunshineyday - that's [STRIKE]so not fair[/STRIKE] a really good deal. They were only reduced to £4 last time I went in

Taking my sister to Lakeside tonight. I will try to avoid anything except the youknowwhat at 17. Can't wait for my L'Occitane order to arrive!!
