Did anyone else apply to be a tester for Good Housekeeping? Or was it just me?

My test item came today - completely masked in grey tape so its no use even guessing what make it is, Ive got to use it 3 times and fortunately I have scankey hair this morning
Not sure about the fragrance - mine or the sprays :rotfl:

I cant remember how I came across this but they sent me a dispatch email on June 2nd

no,not me.
Did you apply for the undercream eye through Alba? How did you find it?

Yes Ive been using the eye cream - very sparingly to make it last as long as possible It is a very nice cream but in reality I don't think its making that much difference - perhaps I am beyond hope? Perhaps there will be a miracle in the final four weeks

Morning all x


Does anyone know why Asda Carrot and Coriander soup mix can not be reheated once made? Any logical reason that is? It's just carrot, coriander and white Onion cooked in veg stock and then liquidised but packet says once made do not reheat!!! Is it a case of ASDA being overly cautious or is there a reason, something they do to the veg for example that isn't visually apparent to me?

Morning, think it is Asda being cautious, though hygiene regulations say things should not be reheated more than once.
The soup would have been made in factory then dehydrated, you then rehydrate and reheat. Common sence says chill it quickly and store in fridge for a day or so then make sure you heat to over 82C you should be fine

Incidentally I've just had an email update from mysupermarket who says

Old El Paso Extra Mild Fajitas kits

are now £2/£1.97 in Sainsbobs and Asda - so a good one for the
sada v sainsbobs shop

esp if you still need to get your fish for £1.50 from COS and the afor mentioned Hellmans Light 430ml £2.49/£1 for Shopotize 50p.

possibly some of the santa maries might price match as well?

Anyway I was wondering are these the Old El Paso packs which have the coupon booklet in (like last years)?
If so does anyone have a list of what is in the MOC booklet this year?
And if its the end of 2015 expiry date again?

I saw a mention of it right at the end of May, just before hols so ive not had a chance to investigate yet
Last year the MOC booklet was for various Old Elpaso, Ice Cream, museli bars etc and by waiting for special offers it was well worth getting

Possible 11+ on A small zip & seal food & freezer bags (40). RTC to 70p in my store, can't do a test shop as only 9 on the shelf . Anyway may compare £2.56 v S £1.70 meaning you would be paid 41p to buy each pack. If they compare to M then even better

This is just a pack of chopped carrots, onions and coriander you add stock cubes and water and cook and liquidise. It then says not to reheat it??? When I make veg soup I keep it in the fridge for up to 48 hours and still reheat so I think they are being ultra ultra cautious unless they know something I don't!
