They work well for my mum who is always buying potions and lotions but not really for C in C nag home. If I had a shed I'd probably be sent there to sleep!

aint that the truth, missed the missus's 30th, i was working nights and got my days mixed up. 8 months later still making up for it

I used to work weekends in House Of Fraser (well, as it was Darlington, it was "Binns") and the perfume counter ladies used to love flirting with us 18 year olds, and used to give us the half used testers as "it looks bad to have a half used bottle on the counter". I used to make a small fortune selling them on in the sixth form common room!
