I have emailed them, waiting a responseI use an opened out set of sharp scissors, place item on one knee, shave with the scissors then roller off the fluff with a clean lint roller.
Keep repeating until gone!!
Works for me.
Afternoon Peeps.
Thanks.
Sarah ...I think as long as it hasn't fallen victim of the "tissue in pocket" type wash and it's not one that says dry clean only etc,then I would be tempted to take the dress back or send an email and photos to the retailer....Clothes should be designed to withstand washing and maybe what you describe suggests your dress did not.
It didnt have any tissue in it, as it was only my black dresses that I washed, the other dresses are fine, apart from this one.
I have emailed them.0 -

I don't know how there can be higher crossed-out prices (maybe they treat them as "established" from some time before?) on items that have gone up in price compared to less than half a week ago. I highlight three of these - the Colgate Plax 500ml mouthwashes now show in effect was £2.93 now £2.00 online - I have them as going up from £1.50! Yet again, if it looks like a price decrease, it is probably a price increase and, if it seems the price has gone up, it's probably now a better offer! I think you just have to take your gut feeling in a supermarket and completely ignore it and act the contrary as they'll all about playing at people's feelings and emotions, like all advertising probably is, in order to get people to buy things and to make a profit (which is their job, nothing wrong with that) but can only be done by getting people to pay more and make bad decisions from our POV.
The other two are, firstly, the Mehran pastes - that now show £1.50 yellow label (yellow is the new red;)) in two of my stores that have them. They look like down from £2 on msm. Wrong - they were £1 last week! It's now 25% off according to msm - however that is not a good offer as anything that is not at least 50% off is poor.
Secondly, I have the Knorr soups and the Knorr Chicken Soup with Noodles (12g) - I take it as one and the same as the "Knorr Chicken Broth with Pasta soup (12g)" that I have it as - looking like 24% off on msm. However, it seems to me to have gone up from 11p RTC to join that offer. So, it seems to me another price increase!
Separate from all this higher prices and going down that appear to have gone up, although some of them (but not all of them) show the price going up on price graphs, it's now 'officially' Christmas and the present from M appears to be to bring in new stock of Birds Rum and Brandy sauces and to put them up in price to £1:(:(:(. I think these products will soon be back out in many stores. Avoid:rotfl:. In fact, avoid all Christmas-themed items, including these ones, now for the entire duration of Christmas:money:. The Brandy Sauce has, it seems, shot up from its RTC price of 17p on the old stock - that you have bought earlier in the year for this Christmas (Rum Sauce went up earlier from 13p, when you bought it, to 50p and now it seems has gone the full way:(). You will not be needing any of this now and the worst possible time to buy is the whole Christmas period. Which is precisely when most people buy them:rotfl:. The new stock should now be left untouched and bought from February to June next year in time for Christmas 2017.
Happy Christmas!:xmastree::)
(I think the Hallowe'en sweets - but definitely avoid the Jelly Snakes that IMO have not been reduced enough! - are now a good way to start saving money for people that want some sweets for Christmas:rotfl::money:. Maybe a little bit early though as perhaps they will go down cheaper if they are left off a bit:think:.)
Cue the deletion of all Christmas items from the list!0 -
thanks to NILDA yet again and early morning testers
I contacted DH who has popped in on way home from work- sadly no free coupon from hole in the wall
...But 2nd day running the glitch items were hard to find as they were nearly wiped out, I didn't need the pasta sauces as I still have enough to feed an army from the barillas we had earlier in the year, but he did get some mullers.
I done a c+c which I was doing anyway as I had £12 to use before tomorrow so put in some LG thai curry v W and an iron ..mine kept tripping the electric out so I thought I needed a new one before we all ended up in a puff of smoke:eek:
So who is the dark horse that is keeping incognito but raiding the asda I go to ???:)0 -
