    I have noticed that for some reason the £5 skincare vouchers only seem to work when i "buy" the old shaped bottles of Sanctuary. The lids are slightly rounder.;) Each time i've tried a new shape bottle it hasn't worked!!
    Body washes are £4.75 in my local stores. £5.95 :eek: I wouldn't pay that much!


    Ahhhhh...nice tip!! A SA told me they only worked on some of the orange packaging Sanctuary, but I will have a look out for any with roundish lids next time ;)

    Oh Dear God...I only have 3 £5 vouchers left :eek: Hmmmm...2 x Roc Wipes and a Sanctuary something-or-other are in order I reckon :D

    Some people are prepared to pay way more than that ... If they want to thats fine. And if they want to buy them off us car boot or the like thats absolutely fine by me.


    I have been quite good recently and only got things I or my o/h and son will actually use. We are pretty much stocked up on shower stuff to last a few months, and I have loads of wipes that actually suit my crappy skin (rather than the cheapy ones that make me all blotchy)....but if you can grab enough things to make some money with at a car-boot then good blooming luck to you I say!!! ;)

    I get psoriasis on my face.....its usually very mild and clears up completely in summer, but the odd flare up does make me very self-concious (sp?)....so I can understand people spending alot on specialist skincare if they need to (and can afford to...which I cant!!). But £30+ on 'designer' brand body wash (or £40+ for P+P off Ebay!!!) is just daft in my opinion. :confused:
