    I don't wear makeup mhoc only lipstick. But just lately I've been taking advantage of these folk in shops giving me a makeover lol on my trips to Liverpool and Chester. I must admit I do look better for wearing a bit of foundation.

    I went to Chester yesterday and had a free dinner in Ed s Diner as I'd received an email offering either a hotdog etc or burger free as long as I bought a drink . I had the hot dog as I don't like the burgers there and a £2.55 drink of Coke :eek: .Good job the meal was free. It should have been over £7 .huh

    If you get the picture and piano email each month you get a code for a free drink - in Chester it's over looking the amphitheatre next to Pizza Express :)

    As long as they scan at £3.99 and get 2 for £4 it should be ok :) worked since it went off.

    Can I ask if the Herbal Essences Hello Hydration poo & con works?

    Thanks
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    A bit ahead of you both age-wise and fuming about the State Pension Age.

    In 1995 they told me it would be 62 and a bit - so would've been later this year, then in 2012 they told me 66 so another 55 months to go as of now.

    When you've been a single economic unit for a long time, it isn't easy to save on one income and things like the recession really hit hard as well so no chance of doing anything much from 2012 onwards to help offset the extra waiting time.

    Plus you get tired more quickly at 60-plus, so days off are recovery time not quality time.

    I reckon at even £100/week that this has cost women my age over 20k each. Yet we help out with g/kids so our adult children can work effectively, thus the adult children are saving the country millions in benefits and also contributing extra in taxes.

    Rant over. :)

    And women in this age group are also looking after elderly relatives as well as financially supporting young adults through uni - the crux pin that ensure the generations above and bellow can function

    Should do, but :(not very well as it's £2.50 individual price on a.com:(. We want the Naked Daily Clean versions as they are the only ones showing £3.99 on .com.

    Love this Mrs stinkface. Mr Ted will have to get an easter outfit this week:T:T

    Well my first ever thread has had a mega s'poo glitch and the cadburys chickens are laying glitch reduced eggs. Neither glitch I have taken advantage off.
    But I have a renewed love for M which is round the corner now I have moved.

    Lazy day as had a very sore throat but has been lovely sitting in lounge with sun streaming through the windows.

    I just had a quick nosey on A.com and they are coming up at £2.50 not £3.99, should i steer clear? :(

    Don't tell me that - I do not want them to come down to £2.50 individual! Are you looking at the right ones though? Most of the 400ml HE are £2.50; some are £3.79 but there are the two Naked ones at £3.99. Don't be distracted by seeing a lot of £2.50s and thinking they are all that; your quick nose was therefore too quick!:rotfl: If you look at it now, can you see the £3.99 ones?

    I've resigned myself to never getting one as they will probably be abolished long before I get to state pension age :(
    Deep sigh

    I keep thinking that and the help with heating in winter :(
