    Hi all,

    My Wii game sold for £12 and the Anna Sui perfume i won sold for £13 BIN so made £25 on ebay today.

    I also went into work its double pay so didnt mind and finished at 12.30pm anyway. But as i finished early i only get one days full pay and then 3 1/2 extra on top coz we clock in and out. But 8 1/2 hours all together for one day so im not moaning.

    After work went shopping to boots, as OH and i have had an agruement about him, beer, cars and football...:rolleyes: Thats the time when i feel like shopping is when i have an arguement that makes me so angry, i feel like spending.

    Anyway ive missed boosting my points in boots, and knew there giving out 2 £5 vouchers when you spend £5.

    1st shop

    x2 witch hazel & tea tree nose strips
    used 100 points voucher when u buy witch hazel & tree product from ACM (advantage card machine)

    So paid £5 (and got £1 back on my card in points)
    Recieved 2 £5 off vouchers

    2nd shop

    x4 Dove bath cremes -sale £1.29 each

    Total to pay £5.16
    Recieved 2 £5 off vouchers

    And my mum did a shop and got 2 vouchers to and gave them to me!

    Thing is all the products under £5 have gone off the shelves, so cant get anything for free. Will have to wait and see if they re stock there shelves if not, i will go to a couple of different boots.

    So only spent £10.16...i didnt use the gift vouchers though;)

    Oh also a lovely MSE joined CBK through my link now i have two referals. So im hoping for the £5 soon!

    Hi Lilmiss!, we're ok now, i just hate the way football takes over everything!

    Boots have a good glitch on at the mo all lynx is 2 for £4 at the mo. Even the twin packs (the ones on the advert where he sprays two different sprays on him £4.99) are going through 2 for £4 so thats 4 cans of spray for £1 each! :) Just thought id say incase anyones OH's wears lynx! Bargin!

    How was reading? Are you very hungover still?

    I'm totally with you on that one Maria. I love footie myself but i'd rather not spend the day watching one match after the other. I'd much rather we go and watch Charlton than sit in front of a tv and watch it. Is your OH watching the Man United game now? LOL - mine is, i am letting him though.

    My OH bought the Lynx today, he did pick up some others but then noticed the 2 for £4 which seemed good as they are the new ones like you said.

    My bro went to Reading Lilmiss, he had a great time. How you feeling now?

    How you enjoying the wii Maria? fun aren't they.

    My OH is a west ham man, so his not a happy bunny that they lost against man u.:rotfl: And i wasnt very happy to pick him up from the pub drunk as drunk could be acting like a right knob!:rolleyes:
    Every weekend in footie season we have to sit and watch the man talk on sky sports about the games going on, then later that night we then have to watch the match....when he already knows who won and what happened:confused: :rolleyes:

    The games i got in the wii bundle werent very good! Ive sold one already! But there i one good game that ive completed already! Mario kart is next on the list, its cheapest in asda. but might buy it with my amazon vouchers.

    Tell your OH Man City deserved to win yesterday LMAO. To be fair Man City was the better team yesterday, don't tell your OH i said that though lol. Me and my OH are Charlton fans so not fans of West Ham. You into footie?

    Mario Kart is the best game ever for the wii, its great fun and a game all the family can play. I love the bowling game you get with it, OH is a fan of the boxing, after he's played that its like he's been to the gym.

    NO im not a footie fan, i was forced to put west ham on my facebook page by my m8's who also support west ham! OH comes from london,he moved when he was 11 they lived right next to west ham grounds. The whole family is West ham mad. HIs brother even had his middle name changed by d poll to 'claret and blue im forever blowing bubbles!!!!! PMSL!!! Seriously!!!

    OH MY GOD, thats a true fan.

    The boxing game hurts me arms, so i don't play that one lol. My OH gets well into it though, its like he's in a real match. I could never get the hang of the golf game. Do you have the tennis racket, gold club and wheel? i think they are extras you can buy.
