    h007,
    So sorry to hear your sad news about your mum. I had a scare with my dad recently so can totally understand you leaving Boots to one side. Look after yourself too. :A


    Had to visit Boots today to get rid of my till spits LOL - ended up getting 4 of the mini JF serums to save my dosh.
    Also picked up a Elle mini at £2 ( didnt smell that bad to me! maybe I have a cold coming :D ) and got the travel pack worth a tenner free. Disguised this with a bottle of Provitamin shampoo at 99p using the 75 points ACM coupon and some of that UG overnight stuff that skibster is using (;) ) using one of my till spits. Also threw in a bottle of Nivea young gel wash reduced to £1.17.

    Saw some Ted Baker purses for a fiver, but I resisted. :D
    Perfume sets reduced, Britney- Curious for £6.** plus they had the Smiley kits reduced to £11.** from £30 something. Big white box with assorted stuff in, looks like a first aid kit! LOL. Also had some individual Smiley stuff reduced, deoderant and the perfume etc.
    In the clearance bit there were lots of the pink No 7 GWPs being sold for £6.50. Shame my No 7 £5 off voucher states over £20 spend. LOL. Also some reduced Liplicious lip glosses. Please tell me the 400 and 100 vouchers wouldnt have worked with these old style ones? :o


    OMG you have Smiley sets in your Boots .Where are they .I have the car started outside.:eek:
    I appreciate Each and Every win. I thank every comp poster from the bottom of my heart :A

    Glad to hear that I'm not the only one who thinks like that :rotfl:
    But was wondering does it smell nice? Since some of us are really after the Smiley kits

    Good and not so good Bootsing day for me, I cocked up on the Expert glitch by picking up the wrong baby oil gel (not the expert one which looks very similar). So i had put things in my basket so the till didn't owe me but was £6 off as the 4 oils were wrong. Anyway got :-

    an Elle mini 50p and GWP
    Olay TE handcream and free wipes 600 points
    8 Baby Expert items (4 foaming washes 2 bottom balms 2 creams)
    Alldays (100 points)
    Always (100 points)
    Pampers
    2 free jars baby food
    Free changing bag
    2 med preg foam bath
    3 JF serum
    Calprofen
    Think i broke even on points with what i spent but gutted i picked up wrong expert items as would have paid less. Also took ages to get a refund and DD's not happy

    from the nowsmellthis blog:

    "The unisex fragrance will be marketed as a ‘happy-therapy’ creation based on olfactory molecules theobromine and phenylethylamine that are known to trigger happiness. Developed by Firmenich, the scent itself is a fruity, spicy accord with bergamot and orange at the opening, and cocoa, praline and curaçao at the heart of the fragrance. The dry-down features patchouli, myrrh and musk (via cosmeticnews)"

    It's very patchouli-y.

    Thank you, sounds good to me. May be i'll grab one if my local Boots got a reduced one.

    hi

    just quick message to those of you that have pm'd me with offers of t&g mag vouchers
    i wont be needing them - am giving up bootsing for a while cos my mum has just been diagnosed with lung cancer so i have more important things to be doing.
    sorry for posting here but i just dont have time to reply to all pm's - stupid new system!

    I'm so sorry to hear about your Mum, h007. I hope she will heal, and that you and she have lots of family around to help and comfort you.

    There were still 3 Smiley sets in Oxford city centre at lunchtime if that is any help? Whereabouts are you bebebelle?

    I have never even seen the Smiley perfume - they don't do it in my Boots....

    .....so I'm not so Smiley - :(
    "Buy me, Lady", said the frock, "and I will make you into a BEAUTIFUL & WHOLE & COMPLETE human being".
    "Do not be silly", said the Man, "for a frock alone cannot do that".
    "True", said the Lady, "I will have the shoes and the bag as well".

    Back from boots got lots of lovely points. The East Kilbride store also has alot of Time Delay things reduced to clearance. I had a '200pts WYB any time delay product' and it went through with a clearance item which cost 75p :D:D

    Oh and they had the Time Delay Micro-Dermabrasion kits for the insane price for £2.50 each.
