    I would check this out with the Automobile Association. We heard it here in Canada as well but found it, it didn't apply. There is a plan but I don't think it's for a while.
    I went on the AA site and it does seem to say you need one,as some car hire companies insist on it in case of accidents,will get OH to read as well but think it is worth the £8(plus cost of new photo!) for peace of mind.Spoke to DS1 on facetime last night an dhe is going to take some time off to go places with us and has got a new 4 seater car so maybe we won,t need a car for the full trip.

    went to town as had some Debs points to use by the end of the month,did not really need anything but saw some foot scrub £7.60 with a third off so £5.06,used my £5 points....foot scrub 6p:):):)
    then went to boots as needed some blusher £9 but had a coupon if I spent £10 I got £5 off AND if I bought 1 item then the second was half price SO two blusher for £8.50:):):):):):):)

    Also got a pair of sandals down from £45 to £13:):):):):):):)
    but bargain of the day has to be a pair of sandals I just ordered £55 save £55 £0!!!!!!!the order went through along with a replacement pair I had ordered which they had messed me about with and had to spend £7 to send wrong size back so don,t feel too guilty(this was the firm whose shoes broke on holiday:(

    well they cottoned on to the glitch and emailed saying they had removed the free sandals from my order:(funny how they reply when it is to their advantage but ignore my emails about problems:mad:

    Glad hair day by soap & glory was reduced in boots the other day just on normal shelf it was the price label on shelf edge reduced- may be store specific I don't know worth a check if you liked it :)

    Thanks for letting me know!

    Will have to check it out, though let's hope it's not too much of a bargain for the sake of my stash :rotfl:

    Phew caught up with everything :) and hugs to everyone that needs them

    Ok my UUs - small Body Shop hemp handcream. I keep this on my desk at work so it makes me use it. WBA but due to various BS offers don't need to for a while :p
    Boots toothpaste, now I know not everyone counts this, but I have lots, again due to various offers!

    My INs are - unknown cleanser to test (although I've looked up the bottle design so think I've worked it out! :rotfl:) not sure, a bit stingy

    Bastiste dry hair shampoo - in order to take up the 'try me offer' :D so that got me a Boots No7 voucher. OMG I can see me getting back in the Bootsing swing again with these glitches :T got 2 facial mosituriser and exfoliator for £1.25 :j
    I wombled 7 till spits so with a couple more Bastite shampoos will get some more, well would be silly not too :p

    Herad loads of people raving about BB - what is it?

    asset2004 you have my sympathy, I am in the same position with work myself at the moment. Ugh, knackering!

    I have a few INs to report:

    19-21. BS Born Lippy lip balms (NBIs) - thanks to the lovely SA who took my 3 vouchers, perked me up a little in such a horrid week :)

    22. Dove body wash 500ml, v cheap from Boots as half price and 25% voucher too. It's the red one, which I actually like the smell of, unlike the original stuff.

    UU:

    44. Garnier Minerals APD 250ml - will finish this this eve as only the dregs left. WBA, but switching to Sure for a little while to get through the stash I built up thanks to Boots glitchy discounts this month.

    Hoping to manage a spot of pampering after work tonight - face mask, foot scrub/moisturise and toenail painting in order I think. No doubt whilst also reading through some reports for work as I go along!

    UU TBS coconut soap WBA nice creamy lather and took ages to UU although I do use it alongside shower gel to alternate.

    I may have also taken advantage of the L'occitane glitch...
