However, say it's the universe or fate, but Groupon sent me a deal for the new hairdressers down the road from me. W/C/B and a conditioning treatment for £17.
I have to say I would probably go for this option while you have the offer then I would go to the college for my regular cuts after. But then again that probably explains why I am in debt in the first place :rotfl:
I used to pay around £40 to have my hair cut but I now have someone come to the house and it costs me £10, means I dont have to go quite so long between cuts now!
Wendz - glad you had a nice birthday! I want to get a first Christmas bauble for Noah, will have to start having a look for one.Biggest Loser Weight Loss: 13 / 20 lb0 -

How long is the Groupon deal valid for? Get the voucher now and use the college - save the voucher for the next time (but don't forget to use it)

You can call me it as long as you mean it as an affectionate shortening for my user name, and not in the nose invader term
I think I might get it. I have listed a load of things on eBay to compensate!DEBT FREE SINCE 25.07.14!

Greenie- If you go for the Groupon option then be aware that it may be a while before they can fit you in. My brothers GF works in a beuty salon that was recently on Groupon and they sold 400+ massages. People are phoning up to book them but they are so full with them that currently bookings are into January so it may be the same with your hair salon.
The college sounds a really good regular option. They will be supervised and thats a really good price.April £5 a day challenge- £15.05/£1500 -
I feel like I'm delurking it's been so damn long! Welcome to all (fellow..) delurkers!

Glad you had a lovely birthday Wendz! It was my Mum's birthday yesterday and I ate waaaaaay too much takeaway curry. It was lovely though.
I'm 5ft 3 too! But with no good excuse for being fat
I hope your OH gets good compensation Birdie! Hope he's ok.GreenSaints wrote: »So should I wait until Monday and see if they have appointment at the college and miss out the Groupon deal, or buy the Groupon deal who may not have appointments on that day anyway?
I'd go for the Groupon deal, but use the college after that (or before, if you have to wait ages!)
I leave in 29 days!And I can't wait. My life is getting a tad complicated. My Dad isn't talking to me cuz I stood up to him, I'm 99% sure my ex-OH is regretting breaking up with me, and I'm being pursued by a guy at work who I don't want to date and I feel awkward.. brilliant. Roll on Australia!

Operation pack house going well. Have managed to get Mrs P to transfer all her shoe stock from flat boxes to ones which stand ready for the new garage.
I have emptied 2 drawers already and books have been packed as much as possible. I think we are slowly winning.0 -
Greenie - go for the deal, can always get hair cut at college next time.
Zig - go you with these guys after you hehe. Bet you are so excited to be leaving soon.
Had a nice meal yesterday with my friends but Poppy is a bit unwell with the sniffles so she wasn't in best mood. Just chilling out today and doing some online christmas shopping.0 -
