i got the no7 perfect pedicure set today half price £5.99, it is fantastic, my feet feel great, but it wouldnt work with the £5 parenting no7 voucher, but still worth it. cant wait for the kids to be in bed!!

the new ac machine is still not working, i was told there was 6 out of a batch of them that is faulty and have to be replaced.

I have to admit I like you would be tempted. But I would feel guilty and I'm not sure that long term guilt would be worth it for £70 odd quid. I know when I am tempted at times like these I think of dead loved ones looking down on me.

Also I guess I would consider the consequences if I did get into trouble over it. It's not a lot of money to get into that kind of trouble over.

I am not saying what I would do as I have never been in that situation and like yourself would like to think I would do the right thing. In fact I probably would as I am a big scaredy cat and would imaging the police would be waiting for me by the time I got home.

But - if you threw your card away - who is to say that some-one else won't find it after you have thrown it away, they don't realise it was thrown away deliberately and assume it has been "mislaid" and they use it and get a lovely surprise when they find they have free money to spend!!!

Does that make sense!!

I just thought I would post this link to my posting in the Hampers thread. I am sure there are a lot of people on here that are probably in the same sitation.

Anic, that's a lovely hamper! I just gave a friend some No7 stuff from bootsing done up in one of the blue and white RoC bags, it looked really nice and I wish I'd taken a piccy now!
