Hmm Double Cream large bars, 2 for £1 at the market. Still in date too.



I have a £2 voucher for Green & Blacks..shame there's no Tesco near me.

That was a bargain kevvosa. How many bars did you buy? I would have stocked up as I really love double cream.

I bought a few at Xmas but havent had any since as it can be a little sickly. They have Double Berry too for the same price.

They were doing 2 packs of 4 Kitkat Chunky for £1 at another stall around Xmas too.

Agreed, I answered a survey recently and one of the questions was do you use deodorant, what the f**k?? do people not?
Title: Choc Bargains
Post by: on February 26, 2005, 06:30:46 pm
Some religions don't allow it, I believe.
Title: Choc Bargains
Post by: kevvosa on February 26, 2005, 06:31:18 pm
I think everyone should be responsible for keeping themselves clean, so
we don't have to smell them when they smell of BO, poo, wee etc.

I have an awful sense of smell, and i tend to avoid being too close to people I dont know.

I think it is Muslims. Please correct me if I am wrong.

You think it is Muslims who don't use deoderant?  If it was a joke, I don't find it funny.
Title: Choc Bargains
Post by: salsa on February 26, 2005, 06:44:33 pm

My friend said its wrong. :)


I can't believe any religion is against being clean.

Title: Choc Bargains
Post by: on February 26, 2005, 06:46:05 pm
No joke. When I was at university a class full of Asian students used to stink the room out with their sweat (again no joke). When someone enquired why they didn't wash, it was explained, in fact they did, but that deodorant was not allowed.

Maybe its just lazy people.

If I offended any Muslim with incorrect facts, I apologise to them. To Bounty? Get REAL!!!!!!!!!!!

You don't have to be a member of a particular group to be offended by uninformed opinion. 


I know you probably weren't being deliberately 'racist' but I find it hard to believe that you might think 1 billion people would choose not to use deoderant because of a religion.  Not all muslims are the Taliban.


You are the one who needs to get real

Title: Choc Bargains
Post by: salsa on February 26, 2005, 09:43:29 pm

Tis funny really, because in many respects and many circles the muslims are the butt of peoples jokes and generally the worlds demons.


Bit of a shame really, there are scumbags of every religion.

Title: Choc Bargains
Post by: on February 27, 2005, 09:11:30 am

I think Islam has been deliberately given a bad name by the media, who constantly feed us negative images of the religion.  Cosequently people associate Islam with nutters like Osama Bin Laden and that Twerp with the hook for a hand.  99.9% of Muslims are just the same as everyone else, except they might take their religion a little more seriously than many Christians.


It doesn't help, even in a small forum like this, to state that Muslims don't use deoderant.  I know several muslims who use it.  Whether or not it is banned by Sharia law I couldn't say.  I'll ask a mullah the next time I see one.


Now for some breakfast. q.v

In the area I live there are a lot of Muslims, some of them don't use
deodorant and some do use it. I think there are probably a lot of
English who also don't use deodorant. Infact my uncle doesn't use
deodorant.

That's nice.

I can get away with not using it as I have a desk job and cos I keep clean I'm as fresh as a daisy.


That's a strange simile, why daisy?  Why not as fresh as a buttercup? or as fresh as cow parsley?

Oooh There's special deodorants you
can get that actually stop sweating for a few days, they're more
expensive but of course last longer.

Title: Choc Bargains
Post by: loulou on February 27, 2005, 03:58:44 pm
I shower and wash my hair every morning and shower again at night so a deodorant that works for days would be a waste.

Mitchum rocks, only thing that works when you work in a greenhouse.

Driclor or Anhydrol are good though they sting. You put them on at
night then wash them off in morning. Then no sweat for next few days
supposedly. 
Title: Choc Bargains
Post by: salsa on February 27, 2005, 07:55:22 pm

I can cope with stinging, can't be worse than shaving your legs then putting on toner.


Oh, and I do work in a greenhouse of sorts.
