    Thank u . 4 yr reply back. Bowt mi total amount. But I'm now having probz with paypal. I can't make one payment 4 the amount u quoted. It asks 4 individual payments, 4 each item. Plez can u help. ?

    My suggestion for help for the buyer with crazy text speak= a GCSE English and Maths course, the English will help with their communication, the Maths with dividing the total amount by the total number of items to split the payment.

    Shockingly bad start to May. 6 ins this morning by 9am.. Though it was 2 of those AA sets on this months Marie Claire which is a mere £2.50 in tesco. So each in was under a quid...

    Shall I warm the naughty step? I expect the usual suspects will have joined me by Sunday ;)

    Welcome back Willowbee and smartcat04. :)

    I've had several near purchasing incidents this week - I am very tempted to buy one of the variants of the new Garnier Ultimate Blends shampoo and I'm not sure how much longer I'll be able to hold out. I don't need any shampoo, but how do I know it wouldn't be my holy grail product........?!? :o
    Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.... :/

    I used samples of Garnier Ultimate Blends Sleek Restorer Shampoo and conditioner a couple of days ago, my hair is quite fine and they weighed it down and made it a bit lank:(, I hadn't realised that Argan oil was involved:o, so that explains it. WNB

    I got a sample in a magazine, one of the thick ones with Sarah Jessica Parker on the front, the same one had John Frieda samples visible in the plastic wrapping if you look at the back.
