Thanks to MSE I got £38 worth of stuff for just 2 quid !!

Bought the glamour mag for £2 and got the Benefit concealer pencil for free with the mag (retails in Boots for £17 !!) Dont buy this in ASDA as all the ones in there had the free gifts missing !!
Then went to Boots and spent £11.38 on sanctuary stuff (using my advantage card points, which I had saved up to treat myself with) hence costing me nothing and got the free Sanctuary mini travel set in a case worth £10 for free when spending £10 on sanctuary products.
Did also try to get the free nail polish offer when buying 2 bottles of coke whilst I was in Boots but they didnt have any of the nail polishes left.
However I am still so chuffed about my fab shopping trip all for £2.00 !!

  • Nice one! Glad you got a bargain:) I love benefit but only managed to get hold of 1 glamour mag. Everywhere else had sold out!!! Looked like a madwoman dashing in and out the shops, staring in disbelief at the empty space where Glamour normally is, gnashing my teeth in rage and then running out to the next newsagents and repeating the above routine!
