  • Double drat! I looked in lots of places and found different gift sets all over the place but no B&H! Obviously didn't look properly. :o I'm destined not to get any.:)

    In mine they were next to the Christmas trees and lights...

    ... they only had 1 left, so not worth a trip across the Wirral for you :(

  • Do you really have to have a receipt for returns, if something has TU or Sainsbugs on its label?

    Good afternoon as we all like a bargain can I recommend not buying the selection boxs for Christmas from next

    Honestly cannot believe they actually get sales for this:eek:

    How on earth do they justify £16 for that !!!!

    I've never had the bonus points automatically apply...always have to chase :(

    Afternoon ALL!

    Good Afternoon, have the dreaded cold, more like the cold from hell.

    Snap, I hope your weekend goes well and parents like the house.
    Just thinking what a tremendous amount of work it will be to move from that amazing house of theirs and is the new one large enough for all the collections?

    Can anyone tell me if it would be Ok to buy 6 of these in one shop. Have seen them at last and they look quite nice, with useful vanity/makeup bag.
    If can buy 6, would be able to use £22.57 from B&H apg towards the cost.

    Dove Beauty Collection Washbag Gift Set works out £2.73 each
    A £8 v T £6. Pay £16 for 3 and get £7.80 APG

    3x Dove Beauty Collection Washbag Body Gift Set (each) £24.00 £18.00

    Afternoon all!

    Got released from my cringely awful team building day at work an hour and a half early :j

    So far I've put a wash on, had a late lunch and now I'm going to do the dishwasher, my life is so thrilling :rotfl:

    Looking forward to the weekend! The next two weeks are going to be manic as my manager is on holiday so everything will land at my door...

    If anyone has seen the walnut-free Whips for cheap, please let me know where. They had them (and the caramel and mint versions) in Poundland and MIL mentioned how much she loved them, so I planned to do a mini Whip selection for her, but then they suddenly brought the walnut ones back in and she's not a fan :(

    oh my goodness me Snap....thats just reminded me ....does it have a plastic bowl or the "egg box type" cardboard inserts....?

    I remember one year my mum was in hospital with a mobile commode and the kids needed easter hats making....we borrowed a couple of the new inserts and make fabulous yellow chicken hats with them as they were just the right shape and fit!!

    :rotfl::rotfl:perfect fit :rotfl:

    It has a plastic bowl. Which we will remove as Dad only needs the frame as support to be able to be sat over the loo :o

    Evening all.

    Yopmail is my new friend. :D

    Anyone else been souping it up yet?

    I am told they freeze - don't know how well.

    The soups freeze well. So well that I've had a few in my freezer since the last time they were on offer, just waiting for the cold weather to kick in! I also use the tomato one as a passata.

    So very true...en masse ! Anyone would think it was pre-arranged ;)

    It's always profitable having to chase, but a right pain in the a r s e !

    Cheers :)

    Ooh.....the John Lewis ad is out:)

    Christmas question of the day......do we have Yorkshire puddings on our Christmas dinner or not........discuss:D

    Sorry for being a heathen but Yorkshire puds are a must in my house, regardless of the meat. To be honest, I think I'd be quite happy with just yorkshires, stuffing, pigs in blankets and gravy! :D
