An out:
TBS moringa body milk- WBA as it's lovely.
Just need to catch up on this thread, my you're a chatty bunch!0 -
2 UU to report
Murad Essential C cleanser 60ml. Got this free on the cover of a magazine a while back. Was quite nice but have a ton of other decent size samples to use up so won't decide which to buy until have tried them all. Was nice though.
Sanctuary foaming pumice foot scrub. WNBA - completely ineffective. Am giving up buying foot scrub altogether - this one is the worst I've ever used, but none have been that effective on my hooves. Bought an emjoy micro-pedi earlier on this year and that beats everything bar going to a chiropodist hands down.
Had a nice soak in the bath for the first time in ages - not with something I am in any danger of using up but was nice to do all the same.0 -
I have a TA. The new blue NV I got from Primark. I had a strong smell of NV down by the side of the sofa so went to investigate and the top had snapped off the bottle and it has poured everywhere. Thankfully it was all contained in a large plastic NV bag so none has gone onto the carpet or DH would kill me. WIBA?: maybe, probably not. Nice enough but still have the other 3 from the set and wouldn't want duplicates.Debt: 16/04/2007:TOTAL DEBT [strike]£92727.75[/strike] £49395.47:eek: :eek: :eek: £43332.28 repaid 100.77% of £43000 target.MFiT T2: Debt [STRIKE]£52856.59[/STRIKE] £6316.14 £46540.45 repaid 101.17% of £46000 target.2013 Target: completely clear my [STRIKE]£6316.14[/STRIKE] £0 mortgage debt. £6316.14 100% repaid.0

Hello, I'm a bit late to the party this month but I'm in again.
Sorry to hear that some of our members have been having a difficult time. It seems to be endemic. Everyone seems fed up, think it's a combination of recession and wretched weather. Everything seems better when the sun is shining, doesn't it? I think everyone feels a bit cheated because June and July are our best hopes of lovely warm weather in this country and they have both been washouts.
Anyway! Things can only improve and in the meantime I've got UUs....
The sanctuary 'facialist's secret' oil. WIBA? Maybe. Smelled lovely and I'm sold on facial oils, but £18 is a lot for quite a small bottle and bio oil just seems to do the same thing for a lot less money.
Tess Daly's face moisturiser from M&S. WIBA? NOOOO! It is not good stuff. Bought it in a sale for £6, should have saved my money. It feels cheap and greasy, the pump dispenser broke quite quickly and because it's packaged in a hard Perspex bottle there's loads of dregs you can't get out......even if you wanted to. Save your money for something better.
Palmolive citrus burst shower gel. Lime & mint flavour, gorgeous. WBA. Palmolive definitely have the best cheapy shower gels. Have a horrid feeling that this is about to be discontinued though, along with the lovely thermal spa and Turkish bath variants. That always happens when I find a flavour I like.
BOA (botanics of Australia) body butter. £3 on sale in TK Maxx. Was OK but just didn't smell of much! I like body butters and lotions to smell nice. This smelled like Sudocrem even though it made my skin nice and soft. So WNBA.
Lee Stafford poker straight straightening gel. Last of a big stash bought in Boots with £2 off coupons a couple of years ago. Is good, WBA but having a rest from it for now.
Rimmel 'hide the blemish' concealer. Never bettered. Have already BA!

I have a UU I forgot to declare
Iroisie Ultimate BB Cream 1ml - WNBA it was way too shiny
I have ins in the form of my summer sun swap, thank you again to my swap buddy.
I think I have a needed purchase coming up I absolutely loved my green balm I got from the first lux box s almost finished its great for absolutely everything. I think its now a must to have in the house. I'm also thinking of getting an extra tub for my niece for her eczema.0 -
Another UU - Imperial Leather shower gel, bought from Superdrug last year when it was about 30p during clearance so WBA
Got the quidco app on my phone and spent my luch hour trying to check in to shops, made £1.35 but most annoyingly a lot of shops did not recognise that I was in them.:mad: Don't know how often I can check bcak in but if I could do thate very luch time then that would be pretty good!!! :TLife 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.

I bought it too, and I was so good on my shopping trip (except for clothes).0 -
