    Evening all :)

    I nearly got trouted earlier with the JF voucher as the SS person said you couldn't use a voucher that gives you money back, but as it was only a penny she let me use them 'this time only'. Hmmmpph uhhh. May have 18 sachets now... In another Mr Ts the lovely SS person told me they have a list of vouchers they cannot accept now such as the Emmi ones and a Red Bull ones apparently. I had to hide my excitement at the thought of that. I don't mind Red Bull but I know Em loves them!

    Hardly. Costs next to nothing to make and they will have 10000+ of new customers buying the overpriced heads and their competitors will lose 10000+ customers

    Very clever marketing. Very clever

    I don't think the competitors lose. No-one is going to give up an electric toothbrush while they wait for a new one to arrive. People are sending off old ones that are hanging around or ebay/ argos cheapies.

    A lot of people will use the heads for longer than recommended and then dump the toothbrush and buy a cheapie replacement. Or sell the new toothbrush on Ebay ;)

    When my C200 arrives from the Absolute Radio exchange, can I use it to get the A1500 on the new deal?:rotfl:

    No longer extra 50p off shop. It's 1p now as they increased price of sachets. I'd do what some elite have done and get the travel sizes, three for two.

    Yes I'd rather get travel sizes rather than sachets.

    Please does anyone have details, couldn't find them on mys :(

    The app is called mysuperlust and is only available for apple devices. Find it in the App Store
    No idea about the JF, sorry. I haven't done this. I have the only hair that JF makes frizzier:D:rotfl::rotfl:

    Ta for this, I had a look for this but couldn't find it - hoping for an iPad app. Just reset my apple I'd so for once I know what it is :)

    I plan my shops, the idea was for a £10 bm each time, but i've been slack averaging only £8. Must try harder.

    So do you stick to buying as close to £20 as possible?

    I've sometimes, if I just wanted the odd item or two and sainsbobs was my nearest store, I've had to buy some ill fitting clothes alongside the bag of chips and loaf of bread to get a BM for 90p or whatever the difference was with Sada.
    I did have a small run of £9 odd BM which coincided with the nice red wine for £3 :D
