Does anyone know when this offer ends? I'd heard about it for several days, but didn't know a local store had it. And it seems like it ends on the 7th????

I just called the local store that was on the OP's list, and they said the offer is ending and the conditioner is in the back, but if I say that I called they will go get me a bottle.

Wow, this is a good offer shame its not in Sheff
Not going to leeds till next week so i'll miss it!! Poop
I will just have to settle for the body butter.

Hi, the press office has confirmed that the offer finishes tonight, so if you want one, you better get down there sharpish

I just went to the Reading train station WHSmith, and got my freebie! As I was told, they have removed the conditioner, but if you ask the person at the till they will get you a bottle from a box behind the register. No idea how much is left, though.
