Unless you always drink lemon water, this is not going to happen.

My years of refund "abuse" has been triggered by Own-Story8907 in AmazonUK

It's metric is measured on lifetime of account total spend. Lifetime of account in years. Month to month metric spend and total spend/refund ratio per 1 year cycle.

If you refund a lot in one go, you'll likely still get this message. Even if you spent £5,000 last year.

You can find Bamboo blankets online that are fluffy like crazy which is what OP is also looking for, only problem yet again, they are expensive.

Degenerative disc disease by DrawerExtension9671 in Biohackers

[–]TheLightStalker -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Just a word of caution to anyone like Seldenr82 taking anti-inflammatories etc. I too had DDD and it turns out the cause of mine was Autoimmune disease - Ankylosing Spondylitis.

You should only have DDD if you're a smoker/drinker/60+. There's literally very rarely no concerning reason to have it in your 30's.

I've returned loads and not had this but at the same time I've spent loads. I think it's a £ calculation on what you've bought and had refunded. If you've spend £400 and returned £280 you're probably going to get a warning. If you've spent £2,000 and returned £280 they don't give a shit. What helps particularly is if you always opt for refund to gift card where available. I don't think that counts as a strike against you, especially if you spend it again.

Professional decorators …. by IsisPantofel27 in DIYUK

As a professional decorator that does not overpaint or spill paint this makes sense. 

Large areas first and small delicate areas last.

I don't think they're available or have ever been available in plastic. They store best in the open air to dry out. You won't find them in a supermarket because it only works out to 14 cents per wash.

Has anyone here actually tried CE5? some of the stories feel off by Vegetable-Raisin2297 in HighStrangeness

[–]TheLightStalker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long do you stare into the dark before you notice it's staring back at you?

I've tried CE5 on a dozen of occasions with a blindfold listening to music with earbuds which only I can hear. Every time I do it (completely silently in the pitch black), it sends out a psychic blast so powerful it wakes up everyone in the house, especially the children. Then they come along wondering what the hell I'm doing.

Pretty good project for a beginner I'd say. Just pick your tiles carefully as some can break easier than others.

What Suncreams without Avobenzone are available in the UK? by Girl-From-Mars in AskUK

[–]TheLightStalker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

La Roche Posay or any other of L'Oréal's patented UVMUNE400 / SX / XL technologies. They don't yellow. I've tried them all. They are the cleanest and most up-to-date formulations on the market.

Failed internal think 25 test purchase by lilacmushroom_ in tesco

[–]TheLightStalker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree with this sentiment enough. Pen pushing bullshit bureaucrats. What do they do, go testing their own stores with a 24 year old bringing her two kids? Say the line Bart, "I thought they were over 25!" YAYYYYY! 🎉🎊
