No Buying Toiletries in April Challenge

charlie792

Thanks for the add to the group - Will get a list put up on Tuesday probably (cant get the stash out with OH being home for a long weekend now can we? :rotfl: )

I feel somewhat smug this evening as just requested £20 payout from a survey site - £10 of that I earned in one go just now -shhh but thier website seems to have glitched and let me fill out the same survey 10 times so Ive been paid for each one . As a result Ive now ordered two B-day pressies for OH (second-hand from ebay & amazon marketplace I hasten to add)

I HATE FLAKE AWAY!!!

Not only is it minging, but I think i've just broken my foot by dropping the tub on it :rotfl:

Owwwwwwwww!!

No INs, no UUs, but I might have a "flung through the window in a fit or rage" if the pain doesn't go soon. Owwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!

Some UU to report:

Body Shop Mango Shower Gel 60ml. WIBA - yes this stuff is lush
Johnsons Baby Bath 500ml bottle. WIBA - yes as we all use this, but got a couple more bottles to go before I need to buy again.
Avon kids Apple shampoo. WIBA - Yes if it was on offer.

Some freebie IN's as we were staying at a hotel last weekend so nabbed the free toiletries -

Seaweed Shampoo 30ml
Seaweed Shower Gel 30ml
Seaweed Body Lotion 30ml

Wondering if small orders annoy Avon ladies :think: I put in another order for €14, is that really small compared with what other people order? The jewellery and underwear are quite expensive so if people were ordering those they would be spending much more than me.

I was thinking last night when she called "petrol is really expensive, this Avon stuff is really cheap, plus it must take ages to sort it all out, how can she make money?"

Edited to add: Is there an Avon thread around here? Could somebody direct me there? Thanks

This one is for Avon ladies (I think) but its really useful as it has links to future brochures. HTH

Well Origins was one big FAIL :mad: I'm over my stressing about getting the SA sacked/reprimanded now and they are blaming Martin Lewis/MSE/Lorraine Kelly for having no stock left because he mentioned it on the telly this morning.

However - as I pointed out to them on their FB page (and by email ) they told over 7000 people themselves and as each store apparently only received 40 bottles they didn't even cover their own advertising :mad:

I know, none left in my area but 10am, bit of a wasted journey, although went via Tesco for DTD so back to the naughty step for me!

Also, I always check hot UK deals before I pay on any website, to see if theres a code you can enter to get money off your order/p&p =] for avon I got reduced p&p and a free lipstick
