    SK not sure where in the Midlands you are heading but there is a Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham awash with....jewellery so window shopping you are sure to spy a few diamonds.

    OH is a golfer too but I love him toddling off to practice his swing, gives me some 'play' time.

    Polls so very glad you are back in the loop again, I did miss you.
    Also great news to heard from Jill & Dotchas.

Mr Buffy Bat has just been in Cambridge Petty Cury Boots and there were no signs whatsoever - tills were manic and he wasn't buying anything - just pumping the ACM for all the coupons he could get. He's learning fast how to be a good Bootser :D:D:D

    Broclo...wow what a star you are, well done for all your hard work and help, I haven't posted on here for a while as I can never find anything or work anything out.
    I did purchase the MF stuff and GWP but I have just read the first page and discovered that there should have been vouchers inside. All I got was a leaflet and 1 voucher for £2 off mascara - has anybody else only received just the one? No I expect it's just me....!

    The vouchers were in the vanity case GWP which you got in certain stores if you spent over £25 on MF. If you only got the £15/£18 spend GWP all thats in that is the one voucher so dont think you have missed out.

    No signs up in Staines either. :confused:

    Anyone know if Woking or Camberley has this offer?
  • WH Smiths at Liverpool Street Station, London had big posters in window today advertising free TIGI/BEDHEAD conditioner when you buy either Look or Now magazines. Conditioner worth £9 odd. Says TODAY ONLY but small print says Promotion runs 31st July to 13th August - I think it was 13th!:o

    I think they have had similar promotions in the past across other London rail station/City WH SMiths so might be worth a look if you are near one.

    Good shop today, but did not get extra points for spending £15. Spent £15.49 and got back £15.40 in points and a No7 gwp. I could've worked out some more extra points items with total spend vouchers to get a little more back than I spent, but I would've had to spend more to do it and I've really been off buying things just to get points lately. Couldn't resist this one, but at least I limited myself and only did it once, lol.

    I got:
    2x No7 50spf anti-aging face Bogof - 10.50
    2x Pantene at 2 for £4
    4x jemma kid files - £8
    1x water - 59p
    1x ReBalance Balancing Blooms drops (anyone tried this? it doesn't even say exactly what it's for, I assume it's meant to be calming?) - 50p
    1x No7 gwp - free

    Used:
    500 points no7 facial sun ACM
    £5 off holiday till spit
    £2 off Pantene PC
    £1 off Pantene from last gwp
    total to pay: £15.49

    Points earned:
    1000 for jemma kid files
    500 for no7 sun stuff
    40 regular
    total: 1540

    So it's really looking like the £5 off holiday voucher works as long as your total before coupons are taken off is £20.
