GN is responsible for me buying....

Maggiemaybe, I have been lusting after these boots as well, but I have been a very bad girl this month. I have already bought three pairs of boots in the sale.
I wonder how many Gransnetters have gone out to try M&S jeggings after yesterday's thread on wearing jeans..

I remember waxing lyrical on the soup maker thread about how great mine was. Of course it died on me shortly afterwards

I've now been moved to order another one. Advertisers would do well to make more use of Gransnet!

My Soup Maker,great purchase ?

I have never got on with boots until I discovered my lovely flat black Hotter ones this year - so easy get on, comfortable, and don't look like surgical boots.

LED bowl lights... are amazing. Thank you for reminding me. Our 19 mos DGD now walks into the loo to see the light come on. Fingers crossed she is getting interested in using it!

And my BIL who has prostate trouble loves it. He goes many times a night and now does not have to turn on the light, over-waking himself.

Thank you! And this company gave fast delivery and follow-up and other promotions.

I think this is when GNS really comes into its own. Invaluable opinions based on actual experience of a product or circumstance without any commercial gain at the end of such advice. Just great. Whether or not we end up with 'the product' in question, it broadens our minds and knowledge. I've pursued many a thing as a result of chat here (it's going to be jeans this week) and I so value the in depth thought and result of those who have actually dealt with specific horrid, uncomfortable and joyful dilemmas and are willing to share them. I'm a comparative newcomer to this site but in the main I absolutely love it. I simply withdraw when participants become heated, nasty or sweary and tune in tomorrow 'in hope'. Yes.......so far SO good.

Ooh yes, just bought my Karcher window vac, had to shop around for best deal (Robert Dyas) and I just love it. Everything with a hard surface has been cleaned with it, even done my sisters windows and I hate/hated cleaning windows! Sister now bought one too.
Ditto my Gtec Airam vacuum cleaner. Light, manoeuvrable, goes under the bed, long battery charge, both gadgets have transformed my housework.
Thank you GNs keep it coming.

Woolovers - I'm living in their cashmere/merino tunics this winter. I also have a cordless Dyson, whizzer (thanks Ana). I was wearing Hotter shoes long before GNet existed! I may have been one of those who recommended Now the sun has come out and I can see the disgraceful state of my windows - so I am about to look for that Kärcher window washer.

Oh, and somebody recommended Lakeland silicone muffin 'caketins' which are brilliant.

Just remembered a handy Lakeland gadget for getting stuck toast out of the toaster ( our toaster never gives up toasted items willingly) and was a tip from Ana
Saved either burned fingers or my being electricuted .

Yes, I bought an onion comb too but only used it once. More successful purchases from GN recommendations have been my Karcher, which I love and use often, slow cooker, magic lipstick,leggings (never thought of wearing them until I read how many of you do!) probably more things, but I can't recall at the moment. Anyway, it's one of the good things about GN so thanks for the advice.

I've followed-up several recommendations from GN - unfortunately I can't remember what they were!! Anyone got any tips on improving your memory?

Jalima, this is an onion comb, avoids smelly fingers!

Toilet bowl light? Remember that one? I bought two, one for me, one for my little lad. I haven't given it to him yet but will do, it's waiting here with the Donald Trump toilet paper! ?

Soup maker. Big hit. Used several times a week.

A soup maker, books, can't believe it's not butter for my feet, can't remember anything else so I have bought a notebook to make a list of interesting items with a view to purchasing them.

What is an onion comb shysal?

Now watch the adverts change at the top

A soup maker! And I'm delighted with it and use it no end.

A certain brand ( forget what!) of cane conservatory furniture, Hotter shoes/boots( love them) and an X hose for watering garden ( brilliant!) Am sure there will be more, need to have a think.

OOh! I forgot to mention the powdered collagen tablets to ease arthritic aching knees.

My knees still ache but my frown lines have disappeared!!

Anya, we have loads of bears in North Leicestershire - getting them up on the car roof proved difficult as it was sooooo shiny and slippy!

Onion comb, red hair colour, Goof Proof eyebrow pencil, another which looked green on me, tubing mascara, Sketcher shoes, a Remoska and NYDJ jeans. I am sure there are more items which have been GN recommended but can't think of them at present. Thank you to all for your helpful ideas!

I think there's a role waiting for me in the 2017 Gransnet panto, if it happens to be Cinderella...

I've tried the boots on, ginny. Sadly my wide feet are now made even wider by my horrible bunion, so they were tight, to be honest. I was still tempted though (an attitude which has no doubt helped the bunion on a bit over the years!).

Yes, that's the one drawback...

Mind you the windows are filthy!!
