    I have had to replace the Us in that with oo because it comes up as a rude word:eek:
    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Don't you just love it. Another one my mum used to come out with is "you are more R than F"....??? When I asked her what it meant she said "you know not as daft as you look". Compliment or insult....beats me :rotfl::rotfl:x

  • Yes but in NI they get the pp at the till so we would know if you will get anything back.
    It's still a decent deal at £5

    If you buy 20 in one transaction, the multi buy doesn't kick in but you can go to CS and get a refund on the difference along with the £2 goodwill, it still shows on the apg and you get £7.60.
    I was told by store there was a limit on the number you can buy and can only buy in 10 in one transaction, but no sign in store to state this. Store said they would put a sign up and 4 days later still no sign. Tempted to go back and buy another 20.:rotfl:

    I think it's less hassle getting 10:D I had to "fight" for a £2 GC last week, when I got charged twice for one item. Super sized trouts work in my local sada:D

    Hi everyone just popping in.

    I have not been around much, between work and RL not had the chance. Little miss had a ball in Disneyland Paris and I was so happy to have her home. She never spent all her money so we went out for lunch and spent it on Bag and Boots for her. :D

    She unfortunately come back with an eye infection so had that to deal with over the weekend.

    DS is doing his driving lessons. Hoping it doesnt take him too long cause boy is expensive and Im footing the bill as he was paid off at XMAS. He is confident without being arrogant so hopefully (fingers crossed) He needs the distraction his girlfriend ended it and he taken it bad, lucky escape if im honest being what has come out since. And we thought having babies was scary. Its when they get independent thats the worry :eek:

    I hope everyone is ok. Going to read back and see everyones news. Hope Alfie is doing ok Nikki what a worry :(

    Hi bananababe - was thinking of you this morning. :D Glad DD had a nice time in Paris

    I picked up two l'occitane hand creams today (thanks zippy :D). £8 each? I don't think so. I had a look at the candles and things in there - £15 for a candle?:eek: I declined to buy at that price :rotfl:

    I forgot to post re my A trip yesterday. I bought the Kleenex shine absorbing face things for £1.50 and used the £1 moc from before I shop. They are currently £3 in S so don't do it in an A v S shop like I did! also, I can confirm that the Olay £2 moc from the bottom of your APG works on their £4 radiance face wash :o
