Hi bargainqueen:wave: I got a psychedelic kettle in Lidl. Was there at 10 and the woman was busy putting other items out. She looked a bit flummoxed lol. She said you ll have to come back later. I said I won't be coming back later at all because they will all be gone by then. She muttered something and went and opened a couple of boxes. They should have people in at 9 in my opinion to cope with this.
Hi emerald, I was in Lidl at about 1.00. I looked at the kettles in passing and from the way they were stacked I would say they had had 30 in stock & had only sold one. I wonder who could have bought it :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:0 -

OO I'd not thought of Next - this set does look very pretty, I wonder what the material is like. I also found a Mr !!!!!! set which was similar but the material was a bit brushed cotton

so for the last 3 weeks before and after the hols I went round and round all sorts of websites and then late yesterday I started looking at Marks again as I'd seen this set instore on Friday.
I went through TCB for the £5 bonus and I had a mailing code for £10 off nightware. I also had codes for 4 times Marks points I am still a member of the defunct marks premier club so I get various vouchers every other month.
I also ordered my ill fitting jumper using my £5 sparks offer which brought my total over £60 using my marks credit card so I had another code from a mailing for an added 300 points worth £3 in reward vouchers which will come in the next quarterly mailing.
So nearly 500 sparks points to take me towards the next level and nearly 500 points towards rewards vouchers worth £5 by the time the end of the quarter arrives.
I've got free click and collect from our little Marks on Monday so hopefully I've got eldest child a set she will like - otherwise its either Tesco or next as a backup plan

They are spring collection so I expect they are silky. Just saw them and thought they were very pretty and uplifting. I know you were tasked with finding a set with lightweight dressing gown but I think the top of these could be layered over a primarni came and came can be rolled down to remove so hair do and makeup stay in place.

Hello Nellie :wave:
Hi bubbs, bet you are looking forward to going home on wednesday. No more cooking in the wardrobe :rotfl: Been meaning to say well done on 2 years smoke free :T My Dad smoked heavily from a young age and when he was in his early/mid 50's the price of cigarettes went up yet again in the budget and he decided to give up. He finished the packet he had and never smoked one again for the rest of his life. He passed away aged 87 and I would like to think that stopping smoking helped him to reach that age :A0
