    I had a look in Marks today at these £15 dresses - well the website makes them look a bit better than they actually are - its the thin stretchy fabric - probably Ok if you are thin and lithe but not so much if you have lumps and bumps - even for coming off the beach.
    There are a few maxis which seem to gave curtain cord as a belt.
    Plus a few knee length versions with a nice scoop back - I think I am going to try one of these as I like the pattern.
    Actually looking around the store some of the more expensive dresses have quite a Boden look.

    Maxi dresses - Primark have a very pretty one, quite nice materialon a brown and white pattern and the length is good but it has an elastic waist which might be an issue depending on your shape - £6!

    I got a beautiful beach dress from M&S a few years back, originally about £40, paid about £1 :D

    I told Mrs Anon I would treat her and little Anons to a meal out at a designer Swedish restaurant this evening ... I am not sure why they were surprised when I took them to 1kea :D.

    We had a supervisor have to authorise our discount in 1kea - have others had this? Apparently £50 was a large spend in the restaurant and they have had people trying it on buying multiple juices to take away when the promo is for food consumed in the restaurant only ... I am not sure why they sell big bags of crisps and packets of biscuits in the restaurant and expect you to eat them in there ... I have to admit we were quite full and had to save a few items for later ;).

    The offer ends tomorrow if anyone is still interested in this promo, but with bank holiday opening the opportunity to eat and spend will be limited.

    I should have thought it through though, as Mrs Anon is now on about going back tomorrow for a piece of furniture at £90 - how we are expected to eat that much food I have no idea :eek:.

    The "free food" is proving rather expensive :o.

    I have amended my order before without having to select a new slot? I can't see why thry would need to change your slot unless you cancelled the order - the cut off is there for that reason.

    My recent order confirmation email for an order placed for a 5pm C&C states:
    If you've forgotten something don't worry, you can add items or edit your order up until 12:00pm today. Either log in on your computer and go to Your Orders in Your Account, or if you have an iPhone or an Android Smartphone why not download our fantastic mobile app so you can add items as and when you think of them — it even has a clever barcode scanner to make it even easier! To find out more click here.

    Your email should say something similar (the time may be different depending on the time of your collection/deliver - it is below the list of ordered items on the email).

    In other words they are talking nonsense!
