    this is very useful to know - I'd not thought of B & M for paint. I've now come to the conclusion that our chances of trapping our tame builder are minimal and if and when he does come he will have to tackle the outside bits first.
    So to stop it looking any more dejected and neglected I've got bathroom and kitchen painting to do so I've got to think about paint today


    Just had a look and B & M do the kitchen paint but now I am not sure about the colour - our kitchen is a soft yellow but the colour chart looks like a vibrant yellow

    Dulux Kitchen+ Matt Lemon Pie

    I am not very good at making these decisions.

    The bathroom though is a vibrant yellow but I didn't use bathroom paint in there ...

    I have a vague recollection of looking for it instore in Liverpool but it only had 2 packs - this was quite a long time ago about the time we were getting free cake and coffee from JL

    We are near a small Superdrug later today so I am going to have a look to see if it works in store, that is if I can find 3 of them. Previously I've found the Olay Total effects pore minimizer cc cream on the shelf but without the RTC price until I took it to the till so I don't think they keep on top of all of the offers.

    I've got the superdrug page up (via topcashback) in readiness incase it comes back into stock - I really like their free delivery service.
    Last time my delivery came with 2 free david beckham perfume samples for OH which he was impressed with :D

    I have only just ordered the Aussie hair offer (2 items with free beach bag and free coconut water something or other - wanted a deep conditioner anyway so a couple of sachets of that) and now you have me requesting a stock alert for this!

    Morning folks :)

    Crikey doesn't time fly! Facebook memories remind me that 4 years ago I was in Madagascar.
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

  • I am beginning to wonder about this Earnaway cashback site. I have just had to put in a claim for my booking, and one for my husband's booking.

    I set up stock alerts for so many things on the Superdrug website, every hopeful of something coming back into stock and the alert coming at a sensible time and not 2 in the morning :rotfl:

    Good morning all...

    I'm very much skimming at the moment so apologise for little thanks or comments.

    Red tape is managing to engulf me at the moment from all angles and is driving me nuts..I'm not sleeping either so the days are challenging too.

    My CC has been cancelled off as I didnt manage to find it yesterday ...but the downside is that the other 2 authorised users and the backup cards have also had to be cancelled as they all live on the same account....we are all officially cardless!

    strangely enough the only thing I am excited about is university....not because DS will be leaving us ,but because I am just so happy to see him excited and motivated about starting.

    Snap ,,,many congratulations to your parents...magnificent achievement rightly acknowledged by royalty x


    Stay safe my dear HG x
