I've been wondering what BNWT stands for, can someone help me with that, please?

Haven't been chazzering (much!) due to life throwing a velociraptor in my soup bowl in the last 48 hours but have been enjoying wearing my per una cardi (50p!) bought some time ago.

I never was a cardi person, either, as they don't seem to flatter my bodyshape but these ones which don't do up are a brilliant extra layer in the office and I'm in the same position re hot flushes these days.

Thank you!

There was me thinking it was the name (or abbreviation of name) of some store. I don't get out much in the new retail sector and could easily have missed something.

A Frasier box set for £4.50, all of the series and a true classic. Used to watch when it was on in the daytime, before working night shift. Not sure if it's the nostalgia or the jokes that keep me coming bakc.

I love that show apart from one thing, I detest Daphne's mother and brother.

VfM4meplse - yes B&H have totally ripped off Molton Brown. I like MB products but won't pay their prices, happy to receive as a gift though.

I saw a nice Laura Ashley cardi this afty in a petrol blue shade wot would go nicely with an M & S block pattern dress in black/white/petrol but they were asking £3.75 for it.... If I'm lucky and it doesn't sell straight away it will be on the £1 rail next week so I'm gonna be patient. I refuse to pay more than £1! Off to Otley tomorrow, they have a £1 chazza and a 99p chazza.

Hope you're in luck next week with the cardi.
Laura Ashley stuff is very good quality.
I had lots of compliments about my spotty cardi yesterday.

It's used a lot on ebay.
BNWOT is 'brand new without tags'.
Finding something that you love in a charity shop that is BNWT is great. :j
Next best is something that still has the small circular inspection label on the care label - that shows it hasn't been washed much if at all.

Hope things improve for you.

The short cardigans that I wear - undone - are great because you can get away with a size several sizes too small.
I look at anything between 10 and 16.
My lovely Laura Ashley spotty one is a 10 and doesn't meet across the front but that's OK with a toning top underneath.

Aha!! Just realised where some of these naff B & H sets are coming from. The MSE Elite 11 thread of glitchy peeps are buying them for pennies as part of an Asda glitch at the mo :rotfl:
