    Had a bit of bother getting the FCUK half price weekendbag (£14 but half price with a new magcoupon) + the free wash bag (free wys £5+) but eventually the SA found somebody who could understand that the offer was valid & that I was not trying to rob them :rolleyes: !

    They have a choice of 'free' wash bags:

    If you got 4 lipsticks, would it not be 242.....buy 4...342 offer takes off 1, and voucher takes off 1, leaving two to pay for?

    Please don't shoot me if it doesn't work ! lol

    I dare not go back and try (getting to be quite a regular face in my local and want to keep a bit of a low profile !)

    We're off out to our local town show later so I can't even get to a bigger boots to try !

    But, signs were definitely up saying free eye dazzle so it could still be on in your store ;) !
    Well I'm back from a quick trip to 2 Boots stores!
    No signs up in my store to say the offer was still on, and they only had a couple of eye dazzles which had all been tested etc, so i couldn't try this.

    Instead I got a
    No7 nail gloss - £6.25
    No17 moisture lipstick - [strike]£4.29[/strike] free with Lipstick voucher!
    No17 silver eye pencil - [strike]£3.79[/strike] free with 3 for2!
    Total spent - £6.25
    Total saved - £8.58
    The lipstick voucher wouldn't scan, so SA said she'd have to ask Manager. I thought, oh well worth a try, but she came back and said she'd been told to key in the barcode and hey presto it worked!

    Also had one last pinkie to use...been dying to get rid of them for ages but was hard to part with the last one! I got
    No7 Extreme lengths mascara with No7 Eye Pallete GWP - £11.50
    No7 Extreme lengths mascara with No7 Eye Pallete GWP - £11.50
    No7 Extreme lengths mascara with No7 Eye Pallete GWP - [strike]£11.50[/strike] free with 3 for 2!
    I then used the pinkie
    Total paid - £18
    Total saved - £16.50 plus the cost of the 3 x Eye Palettes.....that's a couple more Christmas presents sorted!

    Finally, I got
    Rimmel 60 seconds nail varnish - £2.99
    Rimmel 60 seconds nail varnish - £2.99
    Collection 2000 Glam Crystal silver eye liner - [strike]£2.99[/strike] free with 3 for 2!
    FCUK Mini polish set - £6.00
    FCUK Pure Wash Bag - [strike]£9.00[/strike] free wys £5 on FCUK
    Total paid - £11.98
    Total saved - £11.99

    Not a bag day me thinks!

    If anyone wants a £5 electrical voucher, please PM me as I have a couple and I don't really plan to use them :p
    :heart: I have this theory that chocolate slows down the ageing process.... It may not be true, but do I dare take the chance? :heart:
  • there were hardly any colours avaliable in the free 17 lipstick-only saw 5!!!Then again my store is rather small,lol. Came home with 17 Sheer Moisture Lipstick in Antique Lace.

    Yes that would work, but you could also, get 2 items of the same or similar value to the lipstick...so till would take one off, voucher another, then leave you to pay for the remaining item..I think ll
