    I have a question please:

    Is the £25 FCUK offer pack reduced from £50 available with points do you know? I can see it is on 3 for 2 but can you get that item for points.

    Also, I need another 500 points can anyone tell me if there is a glitch available, or a way of getting these. I have No7 Age Delay from the mag (I think) but the creams are £18 each, even with the No7 pinkie it is not worth getting. Any ideas at all? Thank you.

    Yes it is available with points.

    You could try this - ACM & SA permitting.

    I bought the foundation (with the brush) @£10.50.
    Used 500 pts from ACM
    Used 300 pts from ACM
    Used £5 No7pinkie
    Used £5 no7 pinkie.

    Bought a couple of other bits, paying less than £3.00 and getting a bit of a points bonanza for a change! :D

    I really like this. I use it before putting on powder eyeshadows which can sometimes agitate my eyelids, but with this i have no problems. Plus it feels lovely going on and makes it so much easier to put the shadow on. Its definitely worth £2.50 with a till spit IMO :D

    I did not get the 500 points, just the 300 points today. I never get the goods ones, LOL. I am going back tomorrow as well to see if I can get another 300 on Foundation, someone is sending me a couple of vouchers so I am going to see if I can get 5000 points instead (need another 1500 as I have 3500) and then I will try before Thursday to get 3 of the FCUK sets and then Xmas is done and the last few bits for free which is always a bonus. Hurrah!!
  • Thanks Claire for the info. I was looking at getting the urban decay primer potion, until I discovered pinkies :)

    Ladies! If you are bobbing out to get the above item, please have a look at all the clearance shelves! I have found the above item at various stores for a clearance price of £6.37. If you have either a 300 or 500 extra points coupon and use a PINKIE or a TILL SPIT, you are effectively getting the item totally free with some bonus points on top. If you use the PINKIE/TILL SPIT, that's £6.37 - £5.00 = £1.37. You pay this. If you use the 300 points coupon, you effectively get £1.63 back in points on top. If you use the 500 points coupon, you effectively get £3.63 back in points on top.
  • which davidoff are people getting for £5.50 with voucher?
    thanks
