I think it's white, but they do one with cornflakes in

I'm on my way for it!

Has anyone got any recommendations for Home Bargains food?
I have just had one of their £1 egg and cress mayonnaise sandwiches in malted bread which was lovely.
I also like the Indi Grand butter chicken sauce. They used to do pilau rice as well, then they stopped selling it.
I saw a roast dinner for £3.25 in the cook chill section and wondered if that was nice.

Paracetamol.

Anti Histamines if you get them off ebay in bulk.

MyProtein leggings in a sale. I got 5 pairs (and a packet of crisp ) for less than the price of one pair from Tala or GymShark. I buy neutrals so they look the same as the logo’s hidden and they wear & wash well.

Maybelline Eraser concealer is amazing and vegan, I don’t bother with high-end now because the formula and application is spot on.

I also picked up three body sprays in Tesco the other day for the hell of it because they were 75p. I don’t even use body spray but this one is so nice, just sprayed it with Sol de Janeiro #40 and smell like

What’s the fit of the leggings like? I need new gym leggings as I’ve dropped a size but I’m still a big girl

Hopefully, I won't get bashed too much for this one, but my Amazon Prime membership, great value and since I've had it, I wouldn't be without it.

They have an amazing selection of films as well.

Lidl shortbread which is better than Patersons shortbread.

Fairy bread - Australian kids party food.
Cheapest white bread, butter and sprinkles (hundreds and thousands) all over it!
I still make it sometimes now!

I lived in Australia for a year, on a working holiday visa, about twenty five years ago, and I always remember how, for morning tea, in one office I was temping in, there would be a plate of fairy bread, although I'd forgotten it was called that
Being from Ireland, I'd never seen it before.
They also served up plates of really small meat pies, I was fascinated how different it was to a UK or Irish coffee break!

I was in Wilkos for something recently and checked out the recommended mascara, but unfortunately every single one had been opened! Hopefully I’ll get a sealed one soon enough.

I've never been able to find it either

Love this thread and all the tips! Anyone got any recommendations for a good high SPF CC cream?

I like the 17 one but I think it’s only SPF 15?

 

[nothanksbabes]

Boots too!

Brilliant, I love their lip liners. I resent paying more than a couple of quid for something I will lose within 5 minutes!

The Jive bars from Aldi I think they are, are something else! Gonna have to take a trip there soon

Are they the fake Twix’s? incredible

 

[Keikochan]

Everyone probably already knows, but Primark stocks Essence make up now .

They've done so for over 2 decade though. This has been since early 2000s in my memory, not a new thing.

 

[EyeLoveIcelands]

thank you! i suppose i could have just googled it lol but thank you!



i used to love koka vegetable ones but then i got ill and threw it up and i can't even look at the packet anymore

Oh I didn’t mean it to be sarky! I just said that so you know I couldn’t verify it with my own eyes with a pack in the cupboard!
Haha omg nooooo!! What if you cooked them down with other foods…!

I like the Botanics range, especially the All Bright moisturiser

I'm a 65E / 30DD in UK size and while they don't come cheap, there's nothing better than Marie Jo L'aventure bras, specifically the Tom bra line for me. I've never worn a bra more comfortable and it fits me any day of the month, rather than my other ones which I either spill out of or that are too lose some days. Hate hormones.

Kinnerton advent calendars yum yum!

 

[Kim Mild]

I’m going into town later (Wilkos, primark, savers etc!)
Can anyone recommend a cheap and cheerful room diffuser? I do like the wooden sticks one the most!
Thanks x

I like the Wax Lyrical / Colony ones, they last a long time.

I'm not keen on the fake Twix's but I do like the fake snickers - racers

I don't like Lidl's own tampons. They're very cardboard like.
The sanitary towels are great though, and even better ate unscented.
