Hi Op, I love a good dress especially in a sale.

I raise you my downright boring bargain!

I've decided finally, in my 40s to start taking a multivitamin and also fish oil and glucosamine for my battered body and joints. F me, it's not cheap if you actually want to do it for more than 30 days Confused

But with BOGOF and 40% off I managed to get everything I need for at least 3 months at a fraction of Boots/Holland and Barrett prices from a company called My Protein. And I even "qualified " for 2 free gifts of a carton of coconut water and a brownie protein bar that's going to taste rank!.

So I was chuffed Grin

MacDuffsMuff · 12/01/2021 10:55

@alltellmewhentheLangshiplandscoz this bargain interests me very much! I've decided that I'm going to stop being such a lazy twat try to look after myself more too and I'm a martyr to my joints so this may be the very thing for me. Grin

Radley handbag-£30!(ebay)
I’ve been lusting after one since I was a teen and got outbid on one the other day
15 minutes later another came up and I won it!

A £6 offwhite cozy (merino wool / synthetic fabric) jumper from GAP.
Great on black and blue jeans.

Almost forgot, I also got this ring for DD that she's been wanting for her birthday (which isn't for another couple of months so I'll keep it for her).

@MacDuffsMuff I love that ring shame it is now out of stock. The green leopard print dress what is the v neck length like? I'm very busty so I'm tempted but as that would be a work dress for me I wouldn't want it too low cut!

It's really lovely, but it's low. It's a work dress for me too so I'll definitely be wearing a camisole or something underneath it. It's a really nice dress though, the shape is lovely.

This coat, but I bought direct from Jack Wolfskin and it was £120 in the sale. Absolutely amazing, like wearing a duvet.

NaughtyNell · 13/01/2021 07:55

An immaculate Coach Sutton bag in Oxblood for 20 quid FB marketplace and yes its genuine

S0CKS · 13/01/2021 08:36

@MacDuffsMuff can I ask you regarding the green dress is it a clingy material? Its lovely!

tellmewhentheLangshiplandscoz · 13/01/2021 11:23

Snackz I'll definitely look our for those next time, I liked the fact I was able to buy in bulk and each dose was the RDA (often own brands need you to take two or three to achieve this). The offers made them an excellent price but yes, I'll need an alternative for when I run it if there's not an offer about.

By god though, the bottles are enoooormous!

notacooldad · 13/01/2021 11:34

Ibought aoD if dresses in the sale and this one was completely out of my comfort zone. I thought it night have been a bit too much for me.
However it fits perfectly and looks bloody fantastic on. It was reduced to £15! I've ordered more in the same style, different print.

can you share with us, which 5?
MacDuffsMuff · 13/01/2021 23:04

@S0CKS so sorry, I missed your post!

No I wouldn't say it was clingy, the skirt part has a kind of sewn in lining/underskirt too. 😊

100% cashmere cardigan £15 from Ebay! I adore it, so cosy. I'll need to vacuum pack it to protect from moths though - the little bastards ate my beloved cashmere scarf!
