    How wise you are passion8..I think that you have hit the nail on the head as I don't do car booting I personally wouldn't go for the offers for points sake.....( tbh I'm a bit tight too..) However I finally sucummed to the Arden one in the end ( after very long deliberation) and figured that if I did the order for Arden and Natural collection paying £28.xx and getting £23.xx points back as I was going to get some more natural collection stuff anyway I have paid less than I would have instore and got the Arden stuff as a treat ( for me :D )I have then got in points what I was going to spend in Boots.


    ( this is how I have justified this one to myself anyway, DH will probably need more convincing!)

    this is a good arguement but my brain just wont accept it, stupid logical self knows i will be spending out money for stuff i dont need :o

    If anyone's on the lookout for something yummy and inexpensive in the Mediterranean range to buy and use the Med soap voucher with, check out the Massage Body Butter from the Med pregnancy range. It smells delicious, kind of orangey and is only £4.99 compared to the other body butters in the range which are £7.50 for the same amount. If you have a PC voucher it's also BOGOF :j so 2 tubs of body butter and a soap for under a fiver, £5 tillspit too if you add a packet of chewing gum.

    You'll find it in the Baby section with the lotions and creams. I'm hooked...

    Must go and use my day off wisely girls, I am also tempted by the online offers but so far have not purchased(ever). I do add to my basket and leave the items there for a few days until common sense prevails and I empty it back out! It feels almost the same as buying the items(well about 40% the same!!!). I am reading a book about a shopaholic who gives up spending for a year(except for food and meal deals in B), might try it for a month!!
    Back tonight.

    Money is only of any use if you can spend it!:cool:

    Me, wise? :eek: Don't ruin my street cred Amelia's Mum :rotfl:

    The EA offer's the exception to the rule this time, but only if the really useful stuff comes back in stock - imo ;) My 6 Clinique blotting papers were a total waste of money lol, and if I ever do a carboot, I reckon they'd make a quid - if that! :rotfl:

    (Forget DH, I do. Mine that is! lol)
    Must admit this is the only one that has tempted me too!;) ( plus the code for the extra 1000pts helped)

    ( I can trade DH off with the shaver ( well 2 ?!?) I got him cheap yesterday from Tesco Direct!...with his money of course!!)

    Hope CPG is just quiet as she is enjoying this glorious sunshine :)

    Thanks IlonaRN - I didn't realise that. I've seen the paypal option but never thought to opt for paypal as a reward as I don't sell, only buy, so would it just go into the bank, or do people have to transfer it? (That shows my 'unintelligence' :o;) I need to look at the real reason for this site lol))

    Only thing with paypal is that you need £50 minimum balance to transfer to your bank account

    This might include Au Naturele too pollsdolls. Rubes mentioned something to me, and bells began to ring ;) but what Rubes said was in Au Naturel (sp?) can be found in B&M - if that makes sense :confused:;)
