    Not at all-VIVA-BOOTS I like a happy environment but it is nice to leave things for others. I would have liked some laundry liquid/fabric softner but I can pick it up at my local store when I need it.
    sorry elisamoose the 20% is not deducted in store. But to be honest by the time you pay for P&P (depending on the size of your order) the 20% is back on.

    Omg, Apologise in advance for the long post just got back from my boots expedition to find elusive mirrors, i`m still shaking & on 20th ciggy of the day (does this qualify me as a proper bootser now lol)

    Fort b/ham only 1 left on shelf so bought instead
    Clinique DDML £15.00
    Clinique Cl Lotion £14.00
    Clinique Liquid Soap £13.00
    Total £42.00
    Used £30 vouchers I won
    Paid £12 cash, got back 800pts wyb 3 C, 750pts wyb 2 C, 300pts wys £30 total points 1850

    Tamworth store had 2 mirrors behind No 7 counter that a customer was coming back for, said if I wanted to wait I could have if didn`t turn up, said ok but left empty handed

    Came home very upset I had no mirrors so thought I would try a small store, there were 3 on the shelf but SEL £39.99 got sa to price check £19.99 grabbed others quick, sa nearly had heart attack when price was £19.99 called the manager over neither could understand it, in the mean time the queue is getting longer behind me and Im about to have panic attack, manager eventually said if that`s the price it say`s then sell them at that, asked for my cards so slipped in £5 off voucher & 250pts prescription service at which point she threw them at me and said I might as well have give them to you, oh and can I keep your receipt to query this!!!!!
    So got 3 mirrors £14.98, saved £104.99, 386pts and a fragrance voucher!!!!!!!

    Huge Thank You To You All

    I did have this a while a go and didn't think it was any good I chucked it out (just like my old man predicted) But I do have a lot of hard skin a disc cutter would probably work on mine.

    I was thinking that too. I only wanted to order a couple of bottles but when people are putting 43 bottles in their basket (ok only got 13) but still I did wonder why I couldn't get any- reminds me of the old dear who was in my local store she was trying to nudge me out of the way for the rubber gloves, she tutted at me cause I bought 2 pairs, she then proceeded to clear the shelf of the 2 sizes that were there. I can't imagine how long it would take to use all that stuff up!! (sorry chatting, forgot myself)

    It won't take me very long to use it all up actually because I've got a 13yr old disabled son who wets the bed every night.

  • My local had the johnsons top and toe wash @ 1p today ( no SEL ruduction though Thanks OP), managed to get a few but did leave some for others.

    Balm balm blue and pink both going through @ 75p

    SA told me that they managed to 'find' 3 more mirrors after I had been in store yesterday which 3 Sa's went 3rds on.

    Bham-dave I was wondering about those pedicure sets, only had one left instore this morning and can't decide whether to go further afield to get some:confused:

    I was a bit put off by the "2 months guarantee". ;D Didn't exactly sound that robust!
