Before most bigger purchases or trying a new brand I search Mumsnet. I start threads about things I want to buy, I read recommendations, I dip in and out of different sub forums.

What have you bought because of Mumsnet?

Soap

(I did shower before but switched to soap after reading on MN about it's less pongy abilities )

BonApp

Playa Blanca in Lanzarote and Puerto Pollensa.

I’d forgotten about my Mooncup too.

Dance which mascara was that? I had a Collection mascara a few years ago that was terrific but they discontinued it, I’d be interested in trying more of their mascaras.

Oh yeah. And soap. And shampoo bars from lush. And. Mooncup. Damn and so so much more!

Astral face cream from the thread about cheap beauty recommendations last week

Ooh loads of things! Clothes for me and for DC, shoes, insurance, car (!), paint, furniture, gardening things, food, books, make up, skincare ...

I buy a lot of stuff from the MN Swears By email

Oh and Zoflora of course!

An epilator - love it!

Philips Lumea

Too many to mention.

Lets hope the advertisers are looking at this thread, then they can see what they'll lose, If they allow bullying tactics to work against MN.

god loads
If I ever am buying a high spend item, I'll come on here and find out what people have said about it.

I posted on the other thread but there are

Dyson vacuum
John Lewis for loads of stuff
Aldi for loads
Sofology for a sofa
Method cleaning stuff
Cillit bang
GHD straighteners
Charlotte Tilbury foundation

And loads more

Not much, my hush Tara dress and some salt water sliders.

I did buy also an elnett volumising spray, based on a thread which I now suspect was placed by a pr person. It was shite.

Astral- and I love it. I'm sure there are others, I shall check my cupboards when I get home!

oh yes mooncup (divacup in my case)

Thanks Dance!

Yes I bought a Philips Lumea too and absolutely love it, wouldn’t be without it.

Only if we've taken part in a product test and liked the product.

A sunrise alarm clock.
It's utter shit

Footner is a pending purchase from the Sporner threads

@Bluntness100 You've reminded me - I bought the Elnett volumising mousse after seeing it recommended here. It was also rubbish .

Perfume, it was fucking hideous

The Original Foundation. Great price and fab coverage

Chanel Vitalumiere foundation . Was prob about 8 years ago now. I still buy -it it’s perfext for me.
