[snipped - because one rant's enough from you lol ]
I am all for sharing and giving advice when i can but some people really do take the biscuit.
I will in no doubt be shot to pieces for this but hay ho.

Bang

Sarah, I learned very early on (fortunately) that not everyone's as they seem. I also had pm's from names that I'd never seen. I had some from people that I later found out had recycled vouchers for gain. So I stopped and now, if I've anything to offer, I'll pm them to the small network of people that I know will appreciate them. That sounds cliquey, but that's how it is.

But this post isn't about me

I hope whoever's reading your post, and recognises themselves, hangs their heads in shame, or at the very least, apologises to you by PM.

Many people post vouchers up as you have, and I'd imagine they've received the same responses, but kept quiet.

Can't for one minute see why you'd get shot down either, but I'm glad you posted what you did, if only to make the few people that it involves, realise that good manners cost nothing, and that joining in the thread helps. It also helps when people make a note of who's sent what too. I can't think of anything worse than posts that say "Thanks to whoever ....")

Oooh, look, I'm having a rant now

Have a nice holiday x

Sarah Skint,

I'd literally just pm'd you to say thanks for the vouchers and have come on here and read your moan (and a justified one too by the sounds of it).

I really do appreciate the vouchers you sent me, we're going to need to start weaning our daughter in the next few weeks so they really will help out.

Thanks again and hopefully the rude people who pm'd you will see your message and feel suitably bad about the way they 'spoke' to you.

Will try and find the original info re scar serum.

I found all the info on the scar serum versus the p & p serum from the old post and list the ingredients of both for you to judge for yourself. The main difference is the lack of tocopherol in the scar serum, listed as ingredient no 24 on the p & p serum(dont know if the list of ingredients is in % terms, if it is then its way down the list!)

Only 1 from THE P & P is NOT in scar serum-tocopherol. There are some other ingredients in the scar serum lower down the list(I cant find the box right now to post them) but the top ones are identical!!!!!
It says on the box"By simply massaging it in every day for three months, we've found it noticeably softens, smoothes and conditions skin. So, scars appear lighter and more even in tone and the profile of the skin appears more even"
It also says to use it on blemishs or stretchmarks.

Best change your sig to add the Palmolive on :rotfl: EDITED - You have totally changed it.

Sarah what you did was a very nice thing. I know alot of people probably start as a lurker as we have noticed a growing number of people joining in the chat now who use to be lurkers which is great as [STRIKE]more[/STRIKE] many hands make light work of whatever it is lol but there seem to be some who are going to be lurkers forever taking all the glitches we all work so hard to find, same as the sales on line too. I know the stuff is not just there for us but it is nice when the contributers get the things they are after. Am i making sense or just waffling?

On a personal note...I don't post spare vouchers on the thread really and was becoming worried that people see me asking for stuff on the thread but i never put what i have to give away but that is purely because i will pm people i know will use them. Omg i am waffling. Sorry.

Lol a few years ago before I had my DS I got told by a mate to look at a listing on ebay. There on a listing were vouchers, one which had my name on, that had been listed. As the only C**** B***** I knew for 100% sure that they were the ones I'd given away (on another forum) the week before!
