Hi
Not sure if this is useful to anyone but Southamptons main boots had the pink no7 jewellry box gwp for £3 and the newer no7 gwp mens and womens for £6.
There were quite a few at the back of the no7 stand,
Do you think the points vouchers inside are still valid?

Can't believe people are finding them for £3; a local Boots put them out recently at £6.50!! All this after some stores sold them for £1 months ago!

Liverpool have got the pink boxes for £3. I got an extra 30p off with my over 60's discount. They wouldn't accept the £5 off no7 voucher unfortunately!!
You have all got me into bad habbits!!!!

nothing yet, but i wont be suprised if they get in contact maybe i can plead insanity? Thing was not all the coupons were boots, some were moc's and lists - i have been giving it some though, over the past few days, maybe i should come to wearing a disguise or keep a very low profile 4 a bit.

I'm curious, too, as to why she took your card number. I want to know what it is that sets some SAs off, so I can avoid doing it. It sounds like you had a pretty normal shop; she probably didn't like that you got so many points on bogof suncare! And that's Boots' fault for programming the tills that way!

Sounds like a wise move to spend the points, too. If anyone ever takes my card number, think I'll head over to the cosmetics counter and stock up on pricey goodies.

Today's shop:

- No7 Firm-Your-Body Toning Sun Protection SPF 25 £12
- No7 Anti Ageing Anti-Dark Spot Facial Sun Protection free with BOGOF
- free GWP (looks really fab!!!)

- used £10 voucher from Pigs****
& 500 points wys £20 on no7
= total £2 and got just over 500 points

then... I used 1000 points for the Ted Baker vanity case http://www.boots.com/shop/product_details.jsp?productid=1095703&classificationid=1040126 which was half price (could have used 200 points voucher but wanted to pay by points)

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.

And if you buy 3, you get 1000 points too.

I read much further down, that someone got 6, to get three GWPs and two sets of 1000 points. She did have a selection of teenagers as I recall - it would take me too long to get through this much myself, so restricted myself to just the three with a bundle of extra point vouchers.

I will use another boots 4 abit but she had my number to manager. do u think can get done 4 buyin coupons off ebay...

Hmmm... makes me wonder(not aimed at you by the way sinw) if we should be a little bit more careful. Maybe we need to 'hide' our glitches a little better?

Firstly by having a heaving basket for a few pounds we could get any glitches busted and secondly we could draw attention to ourselves.

Maybe if we have shops where they add to just a few pounds for tons of items and many glitches, we should say buy a few kids t-shirts and then on our next shop take them back, or something simmilar?

Ones like where we have has the expert, med, elle and no7 recently(like me) could draw too much attention?

Just a suggestion to any of you who worry about it x
