    In my local today they had some Spanx leggings (I think it was the "Ready to Wow" range - I really must remember to take a picture next time!) for £5.99. They had black and "skin tone" (although a bit too "American Tan"?!) Packaged like a pair of tights in a cardboard sheath, they were in the same aisle as the make up/cleansers/moisturisers. Not for me, but thought someone here may appreciate the heads up :)
  • The Home Bargains in Clydebank that's not attached to the shopping centre has 100ml bottles of "The Fifth Wonder" Eau de Toilette by Kamy for £1.99, which retails elsewhere for £9.99 or more. It's not a dupe, but definitely Chanel No. 5 inspired.
