Has anybody ordered from Debenhams over the weekend?  I'm trying to order a couple of things - spotted an Illamasqua palette that i don't think is still available anywhere else - and the website doesn't seem to be working?  I get so far, then a message comes up saying 'Sorry you're having trouble browsing our website, please try again'.  :(  You don't think it's got some sort of useage measure and I've gone over it??

which browser are you using? i get the same message whenever i try and shop on debenhams using chrome, unless i'm only buying one item, but i can shop without problems with any other browser. so if you're using chrome try IE or firefox, it might just be that :)

I switched to Chrome over the weekend!!  So THANK YOU - it now works fine!

How/where can we order from Sephora (or do I REALLY need to know???)

My Sephora order has just arrived with the Guerlain Terra Soleia bronzer, Too Faced summer e/s palette and Urban Decay summer nail polish set. Really impressive, only ordered last Tuesday and they'd already tried to deliver on Friday but we were away.

I went to Sainsburys this afternoon, and was very surprised to find they had Glamour magazine on the shelf, especially as there were none last week so I thought they'd sold out of them.  I managed to get all 3 Benefit freebies!

I also went into Superdrug and got 2 of the new Barry M Chameleon nail paints, and a free Barry M  'retro'  nail paint in Retro Pink.  Right next to the Barry M they had a makeup clearance shelf, where I picked up an Urban Decay nail polish and an Eyeko neon pink 'Punk Polish for 99p each (I've never seen either brand in Superdrug before) and a couple of Limited Edition twin packs of MUA nail polish for 49p each - they had 3 different sets. 

I saw the Barry M retro polishes today, they're very pretty.

I ordered from the French Sephora, they deliver worldwide. I only order when I have a 20% off code (they do them every 3 months or so) and I always order 3-4 things to justify the pricey shipping (E15.90). Usually the shipping is less than the discount, but of course the prices are in Euro, so it can be a bit mroe expensive. I tend to get things not available here or Sephora exclusives. The good thing about it is that it's within the EU, so no customs duty to worry about. They deliver very fast too, it only took 3 days this time, and last time was similar.

So I ordered from Debenhams Sat night and just for giggles figured I'd check my order status.  It keeps saying "Supplier Order - In Progress" - has anyone ever seen this message before?  Does it mean they're ordering it from MAC and then sending it to me?  I figure at this rate I definitely won't get it until the end of the week.

Also.  Went into TK Maxx today.  I picked up 6 Essie nail polishes for £19.98 (they were in packs of 3 for £9.99).  Worked out at £3.33 per polish, bargain!  :D

As for Sephora - is it the France site you use Anitacska?

Congrats on finishing your second year, Carriee!!

There is also a Bobbi Brown counter in Stansted, and I picked this airport out for my flight back home on purpose, so I can pick up some BB and Mac perm items :)

PeachTwist, I have 239 brushes, and I often feel like one more, as I use them so much! It's one of my fave Mac brushes, because of its versatility.
And I'm really sorry to hear about your brother. Things like this make me angry and upset too. My younger brother got harrassed and beaten up by some gang of Turkish youths, who were trying to scare him and extort money from him. I was so afraid for him and that they would break into my mum's house and steal things, or, worse, do something to my mum or younger brother!  There's hoping that those thugs will get caught and punished, or their superbad karma will get them back!

I haven't even received it yet and know I definitely want more.  I'll build it up slowly over time.  I worry about staining the white though.  :(

Thank you, I appreciate it and I am so sorry about what happened to your brother - that's horrible.  I understand what you mean about being afraid for him though, I entirely dislike the idea of him going anywhere now.  I doubt police will catch them unfortunately, but karma should do something I hope. :)

Thank you - I sometimes see lovely Sephora items and get frustrated that I can't order - presumably if I sign up to the site I'll get the 20% off codes?  Will have to go and investigate :) :)

Yes, you sign up (create an account) and they'll send you e-mails with codes. I think they have a 20% off offer every 3 months or so. So far I've been very happy with the service and shipping. It's not cheap, but like you, I sometimes really want the Sephora exclusives, etc. :) The joys of the internet and all. :)

My Debenhams order has been sent, yay! :D

Good to see you back, Lou :)

Retail therapy sounds like a good idea. 

I'm really upset, our beautiful cat has been missing all day. :( It's not like him at all, he normally comes back 2-3 times during the day to eat, I last saw him around 10 am and there's still no sign of him. :( I'm going to ask the neighbours to check their garages/sheds once my husband is back from work, hopefully he's just got locked in somewhere. There's also a warehouse next door to us and I saw a door was open during the day, wonder if he might have gone in there and got locked in. Nobody's there now, but I'll phone up this morning. I'm really sad, feel like crying, he's such a gorgeous and lovely cat.

Oh I hope he turns up.  When I was a teenager my cat went missing - he was eventually found locked up in the local school - he'd survived a whole half-term somehow.  He came back very thin.  I hope that your cat has just got locked in somewhere.

how strange our neighbour asked us to check ours today too cos their cat went missing too! it must be the weather,cats hiding out in sheds!

ASOS have a Flash Beauty Sale from 12-2pm today

"Refresh your beauty look, for less. Get 30% off need-em-now beauty brands including ghd and Rimmel plus loads more besides in the beauty flash sale
from 12-2pm today."

Also Selfridges Sale and Debenhams Half Price Sale start today

Oh what a palaver! Turns out our cat had got into the warehouse next door and couldn't find his way out, found him this morning in there all scared and dirty. Took me ages to get him out from there with treats. He seems okay, he's already gone outside for his explores. Reall hope he doesn't go missing again!

Was gonna go to Kingston today to check out the Bentalls sale, but can't be bothered now, feeling really tired after all the worrying.
 

Glad you found him safe and sound :)

Just saw this on Twitter - Sleek are bringing out a special limited edition Olympic collection.  I'm not sure when it launches, though, or what the colours are

https://twitter.com/ShaninaMc/status/213205726477299713/photo/1

Edit:  Pictures of the collection, which will be in Superdrug 4th July http://www.perfectly-polished-nails.com/2012/06/sleek-make-up-olympic-inspired-limited.html  The palette seems to be more expensive than normal

Thanks. I was really worried about him and I'm so happy I've found him, I could cry. He's the sweetest, most gorgeous cat ever and he means so much to our daughter and the whole family of course.

Eh, I might just pop into Kingston after all, I feel like I need a treat after all the worrying and hard work, lol.

Oh and Sleek palettes seem to be getting more and more expensive don't you think? They used to cost more like 4 quid back when they first came out.

I'm so glad he's okay!  Poor thing must have been terrified.  Hopefully he doesn't go missing again!

Howdy!!

Just popping in to say hi and to keep your eyes on the post, the boots advantage coupons are out! Hope you all are having a lovely day xx

Oh yes, I received mine yesterday. Only got two 500 points ones (£25 spent) and a double points one, the rest are useless. Better than nothing though I guess.

Thanks.  I didn't get any last time, so I hope I'll get some this time around.

ASOS 20% off code: SUMMER20. No idea how long it's valid for though.
 

Just seen someone post on the MoneySavingExpert forum that Boots are doing 750 points per £30 spent on Wednesday 20th June.  That's 25% - worth holding on a few days for if you were planning to make any purchases.

I went to Kingston today to check out the Bentalls sale and OMG, Guerlain had so many things half price! They even had some Cruel Gardenia and Parure de Nuit (the highlighter with the peacock feather pattern). I was so tempted to pick up another Cruel Gardenia, but I already have two, lol. I did pick up a Parure de Nuit as I didn't want to mess up the one i have, so now I have a back up/one to use. I also got a Parure Aqua foundation in 03 Beige Naturel which is my summer shade, a Rouge G in 75 Rose Barbare, and two Terracotta Blush & Sun bronzing blushes, all half price! They had loads of Terracotta glosses, bronzers, the holiday Meteorites, eyeshadows, Vol de Nuit (the shimmer powder spray), Rouge G lipsticks, etc., all half price. I love Guerlain for this, there is no other high end brand that has sales like this. Wish Chanel and Dior did half price sales too.

I wish I lived near, I would love a cruel Gardenia and Parure de Nuit, rouge G lippies are my favourite too! oh well maybe debenhams will have a sale (I can keep wishing!)

I don't have a Debenhams near me that sells Guerlain, but John Lewis and House of Fraser often have half priced Guerlain items, and I think HoF currently has a sale on and the John Lewis sale starts on Thursday, 21st June.
