I ran out of moisturiser (very quickly I thought), and so decided to cut the bottle open to get the rest of it as it was expensive and money is tight.

Well no wonder it ran out so quickly because almost the entire bottle is EMPTY! There was a little plastic seal at the top to hold in a teeny bit of moisturiser and the rest was just empty air!

So cross and not buying again!

Must be too blush as she's removed the picture!

poorbuthappy Wed 21-Nov-12 21:45:44

god damn it, why doesn't the photo work for me?

pictish Wed 21-Nov-12 21:45:48

Now the link has disappeared!!! shock grin
Ahhh hahahahaaa! Someone is very blush tonight!

This one time, I bought a packet of Haribo (Tangfastics, I believe) and when I got to the bottom of the packet it was empty. Bastards.

poorbuthappy Wed 21-Nov-12 21:46:32

Ah, so it is 1 of those new fandangled things where the bottom goes up the tube then?

I tell what is infuritating..
When the pump doesn't go all the way to the top of your foundation/ moisteriser and you know there are another 2 days worth in there angry

Or I bought some Pearl Drops and when I opened it there was a crack in the nozzle dispenser and the vacuum was impaired and the toothpaste wouldn't come out.

I didn't take pictures though so well done OP for having the fore thought to do so wink

I am nosey enough sad enough to want to see a picture of an empty moisturizer container.

I need more excitement in my life blush

Buy another one or a cheaper brand.
Things run out, it's life! Unfortunetly

BarbecuedBillygoats Wed 21-Nov-12 21:49:14

I had a packet of licorice all sorts yesterday and there wasn't a single sprog
Which is even worse than last time I was short changed

ChippyMinton Wed 21-Nov-12 21:49:43

That pic was brilliant, with the caption on it. I would've made that kind of mistake too OP. One day you will look back and laugh...

RichardSimmonsTankTop Wed 21-Nov-12 21:49:55

I love the fact that the OP went to the trouble of putting text on the photo.

Come back, OP! We all make mistakes. Modern life is confusing!

BillComptonstrousers Wed 21-Nov-12 21:49:55

Bet she's glad she name changed smile

Trills Wed 21-Nov-12 21:50:04

Me too Norks, me too.

I am still tittering to myself about this...grin

I know I am going to wake up in the night giggling like a loon over this.

I once got a box of Roses and every one of the creams was solid. WTF.

opener I have a similar problem, all the wine bottles I buy have a hole in them and all the wine falls out and I end up with empty bottles shock

This thread has made my day grin

ChippyMinton Wed 21-Nov-12 21:50:55

I can recommend Lidl moisturiser - seriously. I buy Olay when I'm feeling flush and Lidl when I'm not. Prefer the Lidl actually. HTH

Seriouslyangry Wed 21-Nov-12 21:51:55

Ok I'm an absolute idiot. Yes I was raging, really raging because money is so tight and this was like the last straw. I didn't realise the plastic bit moved up facepalm. So feel quite foolish and have taken morally outraged photo down.

applauds thanks for making me smile op. Hope you get some nice moisturisey stuff for xmas grin

Everlong - if it only lasted a week then that is a bit crap, but that is definitely a pump bottle.

Luckily, as we know, calories fall out of broken biscuits.
That's why I pack all biscuits UNDER dog food tins at Tesco.

I also would like to see a picture of OP looking CROSS with her arms folded

Well done for coming back OP!!!

You have pulled me out of my darkned mood where no one has succeeded before. Thank you smile

Go on , seriously let us see the pic. Again...just for those who missed it

<nothing much n the box tonight>

Thank you for cheering us all up grin

FutTheShuckUp Wed 21-Nov-12 21:57:05

Pmsl sorry but this has cheered me up

squeakytoy Wed 21-Nov-12 21:57:07
