Many thanks to broclo for spoonfeeding me the maths, I saved £34 today! And the nice sa complimented me on my bargain. :j Just gutted my Boots didn't have the MF vanity case with all the vouchers and the summer body mist spray didn't go through free but can't have it all lol.

The old No 7 GWP is being sold for £3 each now. (the pink box)

Might prove useful to get totals up to £20 to get the new GWP, although tbh I dont really think I want one! Now that's moneysaving! Well it might be if I didnt find something else to buy. :rotfl:


Also today I bought some Helena Model Me shampoo reduced to £2.49 and used the mag voucher, 250 points wyb from MM range. Of course the bloody thing beeped but the lovely SA told me it was not my card, or the offer, or the fact that there were two offers running concurrently on the same range, it is just a fault with this current magazine voucher. I think he said the barcode wasnt printed correctly or something so my points were added manually. My DD loves this stuff so I can see myself having to continue this manual adding of points for some time to come.

The Simple range is 342 so I got 3 handwashes (very sensitive hand moi! ) and paid with points.

Nothing else decent on clearance that I could see, although the Boots Expert Shave foam was reduced to £1.3* so picked up one of those to try.

I love the nail polish in the pink GWP. It's a gorgeous colour. Not seen any for 3.00 though:rolleyes: I guess I have enough already:D

Is the whole MM range 1/2 price now? wow, free hair stuff:T (well, if you include points earned with mag voucher)

I have a TS PC coupon I'd like to use up. Was thinking of using it with the TS mag voucher to get 2 products free:D Any suggestions on what works with the PC. Last time I got the intensive conditioner (in pic), but would like to try something else. Something that doesn't make the till beep. I hate that sound:rotfl:

Been sorting through my stash again today. I found 5 Botanics body butter tubs (from a glitch ages ago) at the back of the wardrobe in my spare room. So pleased as this stuff is gorgeous. I thought I'd used my last one ages ago:D

Can I buy this using £5 off ROC (got it from ROC)? On the voucher it says not to use with any other offers, but this is not Boots own voucher, it's the non specific store voucher. Will Boots accept this?

Hope I got the nerve to try this!!:D

I bought 2 x roc moisturisers (hydra+) from clearance the other day priced at 3.00 each so i bought 2 thinking that minus my £5 roc i would pay £1 however they went through the till at 1.50 each, my roc voucher was accepted no probs and i got 2.00 off the rest of my shopping. So the answer to your qu is YES !!

Thank you. It gives me courage to use mine seeing you done it without any problems. Always hate it when the SA said something like you can't use this, I'll have to ask the manager. Normally, if there's not so many people behind me and I know it works (since other MSE have done it!! lol) I will stand firm and argue with the manager :rotfl:

didn't realise someone had already answered your post, didn't read to the end of the page, boots should not argue as it is a manufacturers coupon, they will get the full £5 back from ROC and so shouldn't loose out, if the SA says anything i would just explain that it's a manuf coupon and nothing to do with Boots

Sorry I know this isn't a bargain or glitch! I just wondered if anyone can recommend a good foundation from Boots and possibly cleanser, toner? I think the time has gone to spend my £100 in points! My skin is oily and dry and I do have a few acne scars. Anyone got any suggestions? I've tried a few of the No 7 ones and I'm not that fussed?
Anyone used clarins?
Many thanks

Hey Helen
I would get free consultation from both Clinique and Clarins instore if you have those counters in your local. They should both give you some samples to try out at home so you can see what works for you.

There often seems to be good offers and regular GWP's on Clinique and Clarins which are mentioned on here so keep checking back for some bargains and glitches if you go for that range.

My DSGF uses Clinique, it sounds like you both have similar skin, and she swears by it.

Talking about the Pink No7 GWP...........

Is it just me.....or are the free No7 Liplicious gloss tubes that come in the GWP really poor?

The one's I have had were just rubbish when you squeeze it a runny clear liquid comes out as if it's split, then eventually the colour gloss come out which is really thick, sticky, nasty & gloopy a really horrible consistency and taste too!!

I was only shocked because aren't they supposed to be about £9.00??

Moan over!!! :rotfl: I need to get a life it was Free!!

Anyone else think that...............or is is just me!!

I would recommend Clinique's Anti-Blemish range if you still get occasional blemishes like me. I haven't yet found anything to help acne scars, but Clinique's Anti-Blemish range is wonderful on oily skin, I LOVE the clarifying lotion! Also if you buy 2 skin care products from Clinique atm, you get a gift free and there is a little anti-blemish gift set Whilst stocks last though and I've noticed they're starting to run low in my Boots.

I bought a No7 Liplicious lip gloss and I love mine! It's not sticky like so many other lip glosses and feels like my lips are nice and moisturised
