    Morning again all!

    I've just been looking at Cosmo online having searched to see what people generally spend on make-up, and I don't feel too bad now! I really need to chuck a lot of stuff out that's gone off or is the wrong shade but I couldn't bear to....

    Now I see most people seem to spend £50 - £100 a month on make-up alone, I don't feel wrong throwing a few old things out! I looked on my spreadsheet (yeah I'm sad!) and my make-up in total cost me £240ish (most of it's duplicates of stuff I will always use) but I also have about 2-3 years worth of toiletries now that cost around the same amount in total! Gotta love glitching! :D

    Off to clear out my make-up case, have a good day all xx

    an APG thread started on Grabbit would be moved either to the Food Shopping board or, if there was too much chat on the thread, to the Arms.

    Grabbit is for very short term bargains, not for chat threads.

    Morning Redfox , could this be considered a green light for someone who wanted to start a chatless APG thread on the Food Shopping forum , and if they did would there be any repercussions in regards to this thread ?
    Many thanks for your help on this thread over these difficult times .

    how many items need to be on your receipt to qualify for comparison?
    8 different. Hth x
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Errant son finally rolled home last night at 9.30, only phone call we got was at 7 to say he was heading to (or from Chester) about 30 miles away - he has only passed his test a few weeks and so far has only gone to and from around a 7 mile radius. This morning we realise he has been out to collect a kayak he bought for over £400 - so most of his student loan gone in the 1st week. She he was driving yesterday on unknown roads in heavy traffic with a kayak on his roof rack, having never driven with anything on the roof rack before.

    So now he has 2 boats, neither of which we can store properly adn the season ends in a few weeks

    But at 20 you know everything.

    Mhoc I am so glad he is home safe. And yes, at 20 you know everything - it's not until you hit about 39 that you realise you still know naff-all.
    No, Mr A, that is NOT 'Great news'!!:D

    Wombling totals: Oct = £243.32 - £93.32 over target!
    Nov Wombling Tally: £27.36 so far... behind target :(

    I make a couple of hampers too but will be combining things I have through couponing too. Every month i get a few (ahem!) pack of loreal wipes free with their insider coupons so i put those in. I also have some samples/trials that are hamper worthy - especially the Montagne Jeunesse masks that I get sent for being on their panel.Obviously the Nivea glitch with the skincare products is perfect too.
    You should also add a nice 120g of ambrosia rice pudding :rotfl:

    For those who have nivea in stock they will look good in a hamper. But for newbies and those who didn't get round to it - the nivea finished earlier this week (Mon or Tues) - so the weekend catcher uppers on this thread with old lists beware!
