    Hi hogshead

    I got a Smiley set a few months back in Boots for £5 :j with the 50ml perfume, bath fizzers and lotion sachets in.

    Apparently it's the world's first anti-depressant perfume according to the marketing blurb, a few people have reported on here that it helped them through the winter months. It's got extracts of the feelgood chemicals that are present in chocolate.

    I quite like it for everyday, though it's not a special ocassion sort of perfume, quite a lot of patchouli in it.
    It usually sells for about £32 for 50mls of EDT in Boots, the one in the set I got is EDP so it's quite strong, only need a little.

    Smiley website here for more info.

    EDIT: I've just opened the box and now I can't stop smelling it, it's a very addictive scent :D


    Oh thanks for this I really need to get some, could be just the pick me up I need at the moment!

    I don't think I've ever seen it in my locals though, I shall have to go on a little search :)

    I asked her if she wouldn't mind phoning CS to check:rotfl::rotfl:Cos I knew i was right, (read it on here somewhere)
    then because my points were erm 2500, for £10 spend (due to reduced items), they took the stuff off the shelf

    I rang CS from the store the other week on my mobile. They asked me why SA wasn't ringing them??

    They told me their policy was that if there was any dispute, it is SA's responibilty to ring CS, not the customers. Pity nobody told the staff.

    It seems to be a recurring problem. I once had a SA who 'rang' CS whilst I was instore, and I swear she was talking to the engaged tone :rolleyes: lol.

    My advice is to print that info off, and produce it when needed.

    I dont blame you neither. I was ringing on my mobile too, but it was a point of principle. I knew I was right, and so are you. :T :T

    I think i'll do that, good idea thanks, - could've saved myself 20 minutes and a run back to the car if i'd done it before:rotfl:

    Oops forgot to say Hi all :hello:


    Just a quick mini shop for me today used 3 £5 off No7 vouchers: got a tinted moisturiser, clear nail varnish and a very interesting colour varnish, taffeta, it's a shimmery iridescent orangey pinky colour :)

    Found a reduced memory card for £4.25 but used a 500 points PC voucher and a 500 points ACM voucher :T

    Also found a reduced Kachoo 4 pack decorated pocket tissues for 65p, it may be sad but I really like to have a pack of tissues to carry around with a nice pattern on the pack...looks much prettier in my handbag :o :rotfl:
