Downpours and sales (fashion and beauty post)

I swore blind I was never going to do sale shopping ever, and how I wish I had kept to that motto. Last year by Internet I scored some lovely bargains. This year in person all I got was very very wet! Yet through total frustration I have agreed to go to London next week to replenish mothers wardrobe, heaven help me.

That said I did nip into the 99p store mainly to dry out, and managed to pick up an argan oil healing spray, something my wavy hair depends on. Now I know that's a bargain as my last lot cost me £12.99. So it is always worth a look if you are near a store. I have previously picked up 3 china glaze nail polishes for the same 99p .

I also nipped into the ever reliable Primart for some socks and as usual ended up walking out with a lot more. My two best buys from there are some fleece lined leggings for £6.99 and a double tee shirt top £5. Thus making my soggy adventure a bit more worthwhile. What did annoy me beyond measure was the lack of stock at my local Primart. For me to get what I need I have no choice but head up to the Marble Arch store which is a mission. The sooner Primart join the world of on line shopping the better as far as I am concerned.

Other on line shops that seem to have failed me this year are the Space NK and Asos beauty. Both had some brilliant offers last year but this year it all seems a little flat to me. Granted this is down to personal taste, but I can honestly say this year the sales have failed to impress me this year.

As for London I will let you know how that went once I recover from that little adventure, for now I need a hot bath and fluffy pjs.
