I havent been Bootsing in Clayton Square yet! Chesters been my fave store its HUGE! Sent mum out today in B'head and she said there were "several people looking at the same things as she was" - and assumed they were MSErs!

Cheshire Oaks is good. Friend and I fleeced that one last weekend though!

I think I may need help with my boots addiction.

Gave a £5/£3 voucher to a friend and told her about the deadline (today).

Found out that she skidded off the road in her car yesterday and whilst she is fine the car is a wreck.

Now I know this sounds awful - and I need you to tell me that it is awful - but my (almost) initial thought was "Doh - I bet she forgets to use the voucher now !"

I wouldn't mind but tonight I have found two sets of vouchers I forgot to take with me today so it really didn't matter.

Think I need help.

:shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

it is an addiction though isnt it!!! I think my mum is getting sick of me asking her to take me to Boots

I think there should be some help available on the NHS for us :rotfl: :rotfl: or even better at the Boots pharmacy:D so we can feed our addiction on the way to and from counselling :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Hi! I read a post from somebody yesterday who said that Boots had e mailed them to say that they had points to collect on their card. I had an e mail saying that I needed to use the advantage machine to collect 1000 points. When I went to the machine today, there were no sign of any points. How strange! Maybe Boots e mails have glitches as well!

a friend of a friend got a peel kit for £8.with the wrap then returned the peel kit without reciept to get her little boy some nappies as she is a single parent-she didn't take the gift back.I know some people might think its a bit sneaky but she recebtly split with her b/f and had a baby so she is struggling financilly.Thats the only treat she gave herself for ages.I have so much stuff i might make a little hamper for her

I made wee gift bags for loads of my pals...they think I'm a hero!!
I'd hate to be a single parent. It's hard enough when there is two of you.

How sad is this!
As i can't do the photo thingy, spent last night working out how much i'd spent in last couple of weeks, how much it should have been & how much i'd saved! :rolleyes:
Spent £118 + 4 new wraps
Should have been £700!
Saved £582 :j

Not bad for a newbie. Got boxes of stuff hidden away upstairs too

Thanks for all the advice folks :A

It's a bit like that advert for McCain fries:

Which would you choose - "Daddy or chips ? ....Daddy or chips.... ?"

Only in my case it's

"Housework or Boots ?..... Eating or Boots ?..... Sleeping or Boots ?....."

Warning!!! Warning!!!

To anyone who bought all the cold and flu medicine and used the 100 points vouchers, it's gonna come back and bite you in the behind!

I'm sat here surrounded by my fortress constucted from boxes of cold and flu goodies sniffling and coughing, wheezing and sneezing. It's Karma come back to reek it's revenge.

At least I'm adequately dosed!
