    Don't forgot occasionally getting everything out the cupboard, setting it out nicely on a bed/table etc, and going "ooooh pretty" - or is that just me :o :rotfl: :o ?

    And having the occasional stroke of a particularly lovely item - or had I better just not go there :o:o:o ??

    True, thats a very important part of the bonding process. I have one (large) cupboard just with MY premium items in. Chanel, Prada,Narciso Rodriguez and creams etc. I just love Looking at these and re-arranging them so they don't feel lonely.

    When I think back, I used to delighted if I was bought my Chanel Coco EDP for Christmas, now I have a 100ml on the go (amongst many others) and 2 spare ones in wating (paid with pts).

    Well if we can't spoil ourselves as well who can we spoil. I am getting itchy fingers now, as I think I can hear them calling me,
    listen................polly..... pollieeeeee....pollssssssssssssssssss :rotfl: :rotfl: OK don't tell me I am mad, I know my OH is always telling me :rolleyes:

    Hi Lucy,

    Oxford city centre is now stocking extracts mini body butters- they are near the toothbrushes with the other minis though, not by the normal extracts section.

    There is a brand new clearance shelf, between the tooth[aste and the men's section. Sadly it just has a few tubes of (still fairly pricely) toothpaste on. There are a few reduced mini Gillette shaving gels in the men's section.

    Otherwise that is it- not a lot to get excited about I'm afraid :( . Hope you have a lovely afternoon :)

    ETA the last chance to buy No 7 stand has disappeared :( Although it only had half price orange foundation on anyway, so not too much of a loss!

    Got quite (well very- sad person that i am) excited to see the new Extracts reduced to clear today-Full Size Body Butters reduced to £2 PLUS an extra 1/3 off! :A of an SA tried both vouchers (saw her scanning them) but neither would work :( Asked her why they were on the clearance stand when they were a new range and she said they "were coming off the stores planner"-whatever that means! And also said thats the same reason the vouchers wouldnt register.

    Just a heads up for anyone thats tried and likes these or that may be luckier than i was with the vouchers..xx

    Reductions on them already wow...... Coming off the planner means AFAIK) that they will no longer be stocking them in that store. I hope you got lots;)

    Talk about in the planner out the planner, good for you and other locals though. Thanks for posting

    Hi,

    Just thought Id mention this again as lots of peeps seem to want the ACM vouchers for Extracts:o....... at ACM go into all offers, print out as many as you can then go into bathroom offers (think thats what its called) then you may have the same offer again and can print out more.:D
    Sorry if repeating and you all know this but thought might be worth writing again - thread is soooooo fast
    Happy Bootsing. HTH

    Well spotted :D Sometimes I think pollsdolls is in a world of her own ;)

    (Btw pollsdolls, I've just seen your excellent 'list' in the chat thread and LOL. I'll reply to your earlier question in there later *wink* - otherwise I'll be wayyy off-topic.)

    On-Topic :)

    It looks like there might be a few of the travel items reduced. I picked up an Expert in-flight pamper kit containing: lip protector, hydrating moisturiser, hydrating eye cream, whitening toothpaste, mini hairbrush, mirror and toothbrush, all in a see-through bag priced at £4.00 :)

    Back to the grindstone. *More groans*

    But does it include the holiday as well :confused::p:p

    In a world World of my own? yes I think I am, sometimes its preferable to the real one, especailly when times are rough. Boots escapism!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Better than mopping the kitchen floor which is what I should be doing right now. I think I will go and stoke my narciso instead:rotfl:

    Hi everyone:hello:
    I've only recently joined MSE but have been lurking here for the last few weeks. I just wanted to thank you all for the wonderful bargains that you keep finding, although it's costing me a fortune!!

    I confess that until recently I'd been throwing away any vouchers I received from Boots as I just never got round to using them but now I'm actually sad enough to buy extras from an internet auction site when I'm running low, sigh........Bootsing has become part of the weekly vocabulary used in my house, much to my OH and DS's disgust.

    I now have cupboards, wardrobes and drawers full of lovely goodies which I'm running out of room for and there's only so many bags I can hide. Do you all use the products you buy or end up giving them away?

    I think I'll pop into my local tomorrow for a bargain hunt although it's usually a waste of time but hey ho. Have a good afternoon everyone:beer:

    OK don't tell me I am mad, I know my OH is always telling me :rolleyes:


    I know what you mean my OH says what do you want that for when I come home with items from the reduced section
    and my answer is "they were calling me & saying please buy me" :rotfl: :rotfl:

    needless to say he thinks I am mad as well ;)

    Thanks, only nipped in as didn't have much time in the end as toddler was playing up. Didn't see the mini body butters but will try again tomorrow ;)

    I managed to get an extracts lip balm though and also a loreal gwp:T .

    I used the SS till, and put both the ACM extracts coupon and the mag coupon, both scanned but when I checked my receipt only the ACM points went on :mad:

    Did I do something wrong? Also, didn't get a perkie, have they stopped giving them out now? :confused:
