Shaders were so cool! And then they had toners too. A girl I worked with briefly won a competition to be the "face" of shaders and toners - they basically took a photo of her and badly photoshopped different colour hair on her on the boxes that the sachets sat in on the shelf 🙈🤣

That's reminded me of Wells Colourmouse - now that was what all the cool girls used on their hair, especially the mahogany & red shades

Cadbury's Country Style chocolate. It had a gingham cover and had sultanas and biscuit in the milk chocolate.
Cabana bar - moist coconut with cherries in a milk chocolate coating
Nutty bar - a caramel slab studded with peanuts
Bar 6 - like a Kit Kat but more substantial. We had these for our desert at school.
Mac frosted lipstick in Meltdown - an amazing coral gold colour.
Shaders - little sachets of hair dye which changed your hair colour for a few weeks. Loved them as a teenager.
Tins of pureed apples. We used to get huge tins of them, delicious chilled with cinnamon on ice cream.
Space hoppers
Pogo sticks

Lou Lou blue perfume- remind me if misspent youth.
The original Anna Sui perfume in the black and purple bottle circa 2000 not the remake

that and generally Leaving the house, I look back fondly on that - such a shame it’s been discontinued.

The galaxy truffle celebrations! They were the best ones in there, so I don’t understand why they got rid of it but my thinking is they’ve stopped doing it so they can do a come back in a few years and people will buy loads of them!!

also I’m sure roses did a coffee one which wasn’t in there this year! Another favourite of mine, hate drinking coffee but love coffee favoured chocolate!!

also I haven’t seen it in years but this is going back about 15 years now when me and my friends were 15/16 and had just started drinking either in parks or at little gatherings lol, but we would get big bottles of red square from Sainsbury’s, it was about £2, it was so nice, it was in a silver bottle and was an orangey colour!! Alcopops in general seem to be a bit of a thing of the past! I remember drinking Smirnoff ice or wkd all night in clubs and I honestly can’t think of anything worse now as it’s so sweet! I am partial to a cheeky Smirnoff on holiday now and again when getting ready though!

Also the old sunny delight before they took out all the sugar and additives!!

and finally.. muller corner Mississippi mud pie, so sickly but I loved it!!!
