((((((((((((((((((Alanis))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Sawan, thank you so much for sharing all that. I would love to go to Dubai for the racing and if I postponed one or two other projects it is do-able. We can dream.
You wouldn't believe how often having to confess to you lot has kept me from buying something! I also find myself thinking of you at random moments, Sarah popped into my mind today when I saw a lovely Eeyore mug in Wilko's!
I'm in an upbeat mood, I found a £5 Argos voucher at the bottom of my bag and used it to get a coffee machine for free! The Cookworks coffee maker is down to £4.99 and I'd reserved one yesterday,
I had a small IN but it's something I didn't have: Wilko's own value brand of facial wipes, 25 for 30p!Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again...

Is it wrong that I like looking at everyone's stash lists because it gives me ideas of what toiletries to buy next after I've finished everything?2019 Wins

:rotfl:Love the directions.
I have been gutting out my flat and have found another Lancome mascrra that has been opened ages ago and then lost. It did spark a memory that I had then moved onto the other Lancome one well over 2 years ago. So I have no binned both of these.
Your pics are fab sawan - I have never been there and it is a place I would like to see.
(((alanis))) Hope things take a turn for the better tonight.
I have been looking at booking up my "summer holiday" which is happening in November. It looks like we will be Las Vegas bound for two weeks with a hire car. I haven't been to Vegas in three years so I had been wanting to go back (used to go once a year). So the price is right so it will be getting booked this weekend.

Not at all Lady M - I have discovered lovely Spiced Vanilla Body Butter thanks to this thread, along with wonderful Batiste Dry Shampoo. There must be others as well, I just can't think what they are at the moment.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again...

Not at all - I swear I only started buying up the entire stock of The Body Shop after reading all the stash lists - before that I was pretty much just addicted to Lush!
Though I'm quite proud of myself today - I went in The Body Shop to see if I could spend that £10 off £20 voucher Rosemary kindly posted, and managed to resist! Hope this can continue - I live 5 mins away from my local BS store so it's difficult!
Sorry about your crap day AlanisHugs to you, hope tomorrow is better.
