    No, I would prefer Asti to Champoo as it is horrid.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    Just shoving my head round the door before I go back to page 73 and catch up.
    Two things:

    1 qoc thank you for the time you've spent organising the collection for Mads floral tribute. I agree with Eliite .

    2 Happy Birthday Fairclair and aau, hope you are both enjoying the day x

    Oh forgot to say thank you, I saw your post, yes I'm good, thanks for asking
    Right back to page 73 or ws it 77?

    Sorry for any typos as am on kindle
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
  • OK I've done my shop and only managed the desserts in Sains as they didn't carry any of the hair stuff & we don't drink.

    However for those of you that do I've added a few items.

    I spent £23.08 - £20 double up Nectar + a £3 off £20 shop. Had to rush to get a moam bar to go with my whoopsies otherwise would have been less than £23. I spent 8p in hard cash:j
    OK I bought 4 Ben & Jerry + 1 magnum =£21 to use the £20 voucher. Got some excellent whoopsies too and had a BM for £9.04 back. Therefore my £10 of Nectar points predoubling turned into a shop that cost me pence for actually about £30 of shopping.
    The hair deals could work out even better IF your shop has them!

    How to turn your worthless (almost) Nectar points into BM - losing little & buying yourself some treats - for almost free!
    I've got a shed load (£130 quid!) of Nectar points & am really disappointed that I can only spend £20 doubled up in 4 categories. Don't drink so that leaves me 3 categories.
    Just got to thinking about brand match & wondered if it's possible to get your spend back? It virtually is!
