    IN - one navy blue nail polish (I had a work do and didn't have time to do my nails the night before, so a colleague suggested buying a polish at lunch and doing them before we went out - excuses excuses!)

    UU - Estee Lauder BB cream 15 ml sample. This really grew on me and the tiny sample lasted weeks. I think as I get older I do need some kind of foundation type thing to even out skin tone but find proper foundation is a bit thick and heavy and I always end up with tide marks round my neck! At the moment I have replaced it with a small tube of Girl meets Pearl (Benefit) from my stash which I really like, gives a nice sheen but not much coverage and no SPF. So kind of torn between the two when I have to choose a full size product.

    This is my HG cream and I've been using it for about 8 years. I really see a difference if I don't use it. In all that time I have never paid the full RRP for it so if you do decide to go back to it have a shop around.

    Don't be surprised if you get an email from me to find out your secrets on getting this under rrp :D

    viktor and rolf flowerbomb sample - everyone complimented me on it, but I felt it was too heavy for my liking. I tend to go a bit more lighter and fresher floral scent. This was definitely a quality perfume, but wnba.

    Yes, I'm going to list some items - will have some cosmetics to re-list. Have had a bad experience over the last week with someone who decided they wanted to cancel their bid because (by their own admission) they didn't read the listing properly. So annoyed that Ebay's viewpoint seems to be that the customer is always right! x

    VALM - I hear you! :( Although (touch wood!), I've only had that problem twice in 5+ years and 100+ sales. I keep using it as I get some buyers that I wouldn't get here in Essex, and it's amazing that people will buy anything really. Last year I sold an avocado plant that I grew from an avocado pit thrown into the compost bin to...Angelsey. The buyer was not William and Kate, however. :rotfl:

    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
    Take time but don't waste time
