So i have decided (cant speak for CURLYLOX) that Im going to stop Bootsing and Tescoing for 6 months and see if I can get the same thrill from economising as I do from couponing !!!!!!!!!!!!:rotfl:
What do you think guys ??!!:rolleyes:
Hi. I was just thinking the same - my living room is still full of the bargains I bagged in the 75% sale, lol. I have only just been bootsing few months and already i have run out of room!!! Not complaining tho, it's been great fun
So, can I join you on this '6 month no bootsing break' ? We'll be back just in time for summer sale
Only, I still have some points coupon for No7 and some skincare vouchers. it would be a shame not to use them!! So, I intend to use them up before January is finished and then no more bootsing for 6 months!!!:o0 -
Wow Minx,that was great,it's lovely when you get nice SA isn't it.
Liverbird,I can't believe you have gone under £300 on your card,how will you cope????He who smiles rather than rages is always

I agree it is a really cheap cardboard container. I have used the powder and I do like it. But after 3-4 times of putting the lid back on the top edge is starting to come apart! I would have been furious if I had actually "paid" for it.
I have 3 and they are the same poor quality, It is a fine art getting the top back on without messing up the edges. Not an item to grab and use when in a hurry. Still for free its great. :j~ What goes around comes around ~0 -
Errmmmm..... I really should economise but I know I won't. I love getting Tesco freebies too.... have enough toiletries courtesy of Mr T for the next couple of years!
