    Thats good to hear. It looks so much better than last months. I just hope I receive mine, with the mis-labelling this month. My postman knows me, and has queried post in the past if a name was different from expected.

    I'm going to have to wait to see if I can nab him on his rounds. :eek:

    I will have the same problem. Last week my postie tried to deliver 3 parcels and I wasn't in, so had to go to the sorting office. When I got there I was told that despite the card saying 3 things, they could only find 2. So I asked if there were any others for my address, rather than my name and surprise the 3rd thing was a freebie I'd ordered in my daughter's name, who has a different surname to me. Not only that but he came out with 2 other parcels, one for OH with surname missed off and one for DD. They'd been there uncollected and unknown about for a month and OH had questioned the seller on fleabay about his missing item already. If only they were efficient posties doing their job properly i wouldn't mind, but the only thing that never goes missing is bills. :rotfl:

    Trying hard not to look at spoilers for SSB so hoping box turns up soon.

  • The courier wouldn't hand my SSB over because it had the wrong name on it :( My sister answered the door, gave our surname (obviously!) when he asked for the name, so he wouldn't give her the box as it had a different name on it.

    I'm not too sure what to do now. I'm guessing I need to email SSB, does anyone know what email address I should use?

    I've just received my SSB box delivered by Yodel. Lucky I was in, and lucky he didn't ask my name like they sometimes do, phew!

    I'm really pleased with my box, although I did have a sneak peek beforehand. Spoilers in white:

    The popchips have been eaten, and I can't wait to try out the products. I will use the facepack, and oil this evening, and will try the Green Tea gel tomorrow, with the fixers. Its nice to get the discount codes off full sizes too.

    Just had an e-mail from the beauty bible about being a tester. Has anyone been a tester, is it worth doing at a cost of £30. Not sure wether to go for it or not.

    OMG! Go for it!! You get some lovely stuff - Last time I got loads of high end skin care: Olaf Henrikson(Think thats the name) face cream, Creme de la Mer eye cream, Clinique self tan and loads more.

    I've signed up again for the Green Anti-ageing tests. The paperwork isdn't too cumbersome as you test over a period of about 1-3 months

    go for it! i'm doing it for the green update atm. got £175 worth of stuff in my package including three products i already consider holy grails! all the products are full size and they do try and make sure that you get a spread of products and a mix of high and low end too. i've done it twice and my mums done it once and the stuff we've received each time has been worth around £180 retail.
