Hard Candy Duo shadow in Pick up line
Today the husband got a day of so we decided to go grab a few groceries from Tesco before we had to pop into the Fish shop to grab some water for his marine tank. When we go there , he knows I always have the urge to see what I can grab from Poundworld.
I always grab the odd bags of sweets and today found myself demolishing a bag of M&M's before getting out the store but I enjoyed them and have more for tonight so I am ok. 
Theres always something in there that is an absolute bargain and I did see the range of Argon Oil for hair collections instore but I really dont need anymore shampoos , hair masks ect so I went straight for the nail area.
I picked up this gorgeous bottle of pretty Graffiti sparkle bcause although I have others like it I know it never lasts long with my three little girls always sneaking some on their nails . I also found this one Hard Candy duo shadow left all alone in a basket and I felt sorry for it so took it home to enjoy . I actually dont have a minty green colour shadow and thought it would be nice and fair for every day wear or my daughther who keeps sneaking shadows , she seems to prefer the singles to the palettes so I am ok with that.

Pretty Polish in Graffiti

Nail Polish Applied with one coat

The Graffiti polish is actually quick nice on. I bought something similar at christmas and the glitter just refused to come of the brush and stick to my nails but this applied generously . It is not totally clear varnish though, I think the varnish has soaked some of the glitter strands of blue, red and gold and the colour has gone into the varnish so it leaves a very faint redish  tone . Dries quick and looks lovely so think I will get some more next time .
Now if any of you have children you will know how much of a pain it can be when you get the same complaint every day of school. Every morning although we have umteen bags in the cuboard , we find ourselves seeking them out to lose 4 a week somehow. I am sure the school keeps them along with the 20 jumpers and cardigans that wander of my kids backs and are never seen again in a term. Well we seen these on the back wall behind the tills in the store so I thought it only fair to grab some for the girls when they have PE or swimming . I am hoping they dont lose them too soon but for only £1 we cant complain really can we? (personally I fell in love with the Tinkerbell one but thought if I get three and say they were for the girls I coulf use it when I go shopping myself , but don't tell no one).

As well we bought the normal stock top up of bobbles for kids hairs, new Paddle hair brush , treats for dogs and some cute blue and white stripe over knee socks for myself . Everything only £1 and I left happy knowing I grabbed a bargain. I already know the tote bags sell for £8 each and the Hard candy duo eyeshadow £2 so made a huge saving.

This was not the case by the time we got to the shop that sold the Corals thought. My darling husband decided to spend that saving on a £35 Coral for our marine tank , but it does look lovely and Nemo will love it I am sure .

Have you grabbed any bargains lately ?
 I am trying to be good and not spend so much due to us moving shortly, I dont have the space here and when I move I know there will be much more space for the extra shops.

The graffiti effect nail varnish is so pretty. I love glitter nail varnishes - look pretty when applied. But taking them off is a pain :)
Even I am always on the lookout for a good bargain whenever/wherever I shop.
