    I know it's not much of a saving compared to the MASSIVE electrical glitch, but Edinburgh Fort has the Balm Balms reduced to 35p each, on the clearance stand by the cold drinks fridge.

    I do wish I actually wanted some of this electrical stuff, btw! But I've already got one of each of these...well, the ones I like anyway. How irritating it is to see a really good glitch and know you'd only be doing it for the sake of doing it, so you don't. I feel left out!

    To clarify: the No 7 electrical items went through as 3 for 1 in store? :eek: Did you use a SS till. Wow!
    yes in store and i was brave and used sa(she was lovely :D and happy for my bargains,she did show her supervisor the til though,this was before i handed the vouchers over):D
    :beer: Am thinking of a new one:beer:
  • I braved the walk and the loaded up pushchair.... got 3 mirrors + used £5 electrical voucher + staff discount + £2.19 I had on a gift card = a crazy price :D

    Want the foot spa now! SA said they're waiting on them coming in, should be any day. Hope it's while this offer is still on, if not I might exchange one of these mirrors as they're the same price. I only need 2, 1 for me 1 for Sis as present.

    I'm on such a high now - thanks OP :j :T
