    Updated my earlier post since the the new boxes confused me and the prices I originally reported are not correct. As Tiara mentioned they have 2 moisturisers ranges. The eye creams are correct though, since I bought those 2.

    I would like to draw your attention to this eye cream:
    TD eye cream: restoring eye cream SPF 15 (specially developed for mature skin): £7.49

    My mother likes it a lot, because it is one of the few around that has sun protection. Even premium brands eye creams have no sun protection, so it might be worth thinking of getting one with a voucher. But pay attention., I bought the basic one thinking I was getting this one. :think: need to check my glasses!!

    Hi found this thread yesterday and must say, you're all fab.

    Went into Boots yesterday to do my initial shop to get the 2 £5 vouchers. All goes well. Back to Boots today to look for the TS long hair products and to get a No 7 product and some TD and the 200 extra points coupon from the mag.

    Instore, what a choice, do I get the £5 mascara or the £5 anti cellulite cream - they have multiples of both. Opt for the cream. No TS, so save those for another day. Pick up some TD aftershave balm to keep DH happy.

    Heading for checkout and spot Boots own hosiery for £1. Pick up some stockings and stop at the ACM, never used one before. It tells me I have 1207 points (been saving for awhile) and then adds 552 points from Boots.com :confused: Who am I to argue with free points and a lovely new total of 1759. I then print out the 100 points for hosiery and head straight to the till (right next to the ACM).

    I left my card in the machine! Two minutes later I realise but it's already gone. I immediately phone the helpline and low and behold, by the time I get through my balance is down to 400 odd points. I could cry.

    To top it all off, I now can't even use the 100 extra points on hosiery as I need my card for it.

    Sorry for the long first post but I feel gutted now. Silly the little things which upset us.

    Oh my goodness - the Sun vouchers are rubbish (IMO), AND we only have 11 days to use them, AND NOW they won't even scan? :eek: :eek: :eek:


    Anyone else wishing they hadn't wasted the stamps? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    Oh yes i definitely wish i never bothered, i still haven't got mine don't care if they get lost in the post. So don't any of them scan?

    "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".

    just back from festivel park-used another no7 voucher that was lurking in my bag on another no7 bronzer pallette, skincare voucher on mens time delay facial scrub and mithcum deodrant paid 15p for all 3 items.I really wanted a blue no7 shiney with flowery pattern set with little brushes and nail file inside(ex gwp)this was marked £6.50 and I would have paid the difference but it was declined and sa said wasn't allowed to buy it with voucher.Also mitchum voucher was queried by pharmacy sa and manager decided it was fine to use and he also knew that it was taking £1.50 off-he just asked the sa's to make sure people don't use photocopies.I doublechecked and asked if it was ok to use again and was told yes.No mags in festivel park but lots of lovely mini mode outfits for £1 and £2 -packs of 5 vests for early baby just £1-tried to buy a pack as it was a bargain but mum made me put it back:rolleyes:
    also various damask rose and lavender sets on sale for £2.50 so grabbed a couple as I live opposite old peoples home and I know some of the ladies would love these sets and I love the damask rose myself too.
    Love can tame the wildest

    If you have vouchers & no card.. you can ask to get the receipt validated, so when you do get your card, you go to the till and they scan the receipt and it puts the points on your new card :)

    Also, sorry to hear that it went badly :( dont let it put you off though! It does happen to alot of us on here!
