I have a few In's to confess to ladies.

I was in TBS today armed with my dispatch notices from online orders to get my card stamped. It took me up to the 5th one, so I was due £5 for reaching my 4th one, plus it's my birthday month so I was due £5 for that too.

How did you get that to work? It says on the BS website that you do not get your card stamped for online orders I've not had any BS orders recently :A but would be due my whole card stamped :mad:

Getting an inventory together is going to take at least a day as my "stash" is everywhere. Cardboard boxes under my desk, carrier bags full stuffed in clothes draws, products stuffed in every nook and cranny and why did I think stuffing shampoo bottles behind my wardrobe was a good idea?

I think we might be evil twins! I made a start today listing and clearing out things in the bathroom... maybe I can use somethings up before I have to write them down

Just wrote such a long post and the computer ate it :mad:

So in summary, I have my first UU for 2012 (and no ins :A)

Calvin Klein Truth perfume sample, WNBA, plenty more to get through
Burts Bees Supershine conditioner 30ml - WNBA, not heavy duty enough for my hair
Clinique Youth Surge GWP size - WNBA, nothing special for the money
Lush soap sample - WNBA, far too many soaps to UU
Liz Earle skin tint sachet for fair skin - WNBA, I expected much more from this but it felt too heavy on my skin, I could feel it on my face and it smelled a bit funny! Still have the 2 darker shades to use but hoping for some summer colour first! Wouldn't pay £21 for a tube of it anyway :eek:

I emptied out my make up bag yesterday and found 5 opened foundations in there so that will keep me going for the year without going near the stash :rotfl:

I've got my first full week back at work now and I can't say I'm looking forward to it Have been spoiled by Xmas holidays!

hi every1 got 3 uu to report
2xhairdyes out the £1 shop-said it before i really like these hairdyes cheap.does the job and the company doesnt test on animals.
avon waterfall shower gel 500ml- nice smell works quite well no need to buy for ages as still got loads of shower gels to get through.

oh also uu lush bubblegum scrub but my friend gave me another so they cancel each other out. its my birthday this month so have £5 to spend at tbs thinking i might just buy something to put in the gift stash as i have loads of body butters etc. xx

I have a UU tonight, DH waxed my armpits for me and then I waxed 1/2 of his chest which UU 1 tub of wax. I have lots more in stash so will start another tomorrow night and finish the other half of his chest. Thought he was going to cry when I ripped off the first lot. He didn't half make a fuss

oh don't say Boudoir Prive/Joliebox aint good LOL - i went with them on the basis of that OPI nail polish.....i might regret that haha

Amarya i am very much looking forward to . Pity I missed out on the REN stuff

I will also keep up the Latest in Beauty stuff as the £1 box is a really good idea and pretty easy to do just using your mobile. Will also order their Refresh and Recover Box when my bursery goes in on Wednesday as looking what is in it, although it is samples, their value adds up to £7 in no time!

the products are better than gb and everyone gets the same so you don't get box envy like with gb but the three boxes i've had have all arrived inexplicably 3 or 4 days after everyone else has splashed them all over Facebook. i don't know if its royal mail or bp but it isn't very good either way. they also seem to fail every month on meeting dispatch dates, even when they promise it will be sent one day it never is. so far they have been better product wise which is why I've given them the benefit of the doubt with the lateness but it is getting a bit annoying now. they aren't doing a january box which is blatantly to give them time to sort themselves out so I'm hoping by the feb box they do.


i was expecting amarya to be the same as the others and take 2/3 days from posting and last month it was waiting downstairs for me when i woke up the day after they were posted!
