    hi all, i am still after a £5 electrical till spit if anybody has one. I do have some boots vouchers from baby mailing, but too many too list. if you can help at all, please pm me, thanks
  • A BIG thank you to everybody that has sent me vouchers recently. I hope everybody that I have done swaps with are happy too :p .

    I have tried to email everyone when I have received them but I think I may have left a couple out :o but I don't know who (sorry) so I am truly sorry and really appreciate the vouchers. Thank You :A .

    Now for my request -

    In the boots summer sale there were these scholl funky monkey things at 75% off (around £7.50ish I think)- http://www.amazon.co.uk/Scholl-DR3124-Funky-Monkey-Massager/dp/B0006B2Q6O - I tried to order a few for presents but my internet messed up blah blah blah and I never managed it. Has anybody that bought any bought more than needed and would you be willing to sell them on or maybe swap for pinkies etc? If so please pm me (with what you want and postage costs too as I imagine it will be quite high) as I REALLY want a couple. I have looked on ebay but nobody is selling them.

    Or if anybody has seen them in stores (long shot I know)?

    TIA

    So would like to warn the others if you want to try your luck with mitchum coupons and the No.7 GW. I been really out of luck and been treated as a thief.

    Well, it would all be on the security cameras which moniter the SS tills, so you should have asked him to take you into the office and play back the tape for you. Then he'd have seen you paying for the goods, reciept or no reciept.

    Phone CS and complain about it. They'll be able to ask the branch manager to review the tapes and discipline the assistant as necessary.

    Did you have to leave your goods when you walked out, btw?

    Polls, linky here which explains about Boots percentage contributions on breast cancer care items, seems it's between 10 and 20% depending on the item.

    I'm fairly sure however that if you buy the pin badges and phone charms, usually found at the tills, that 100% of the money goes to the charity. I was looking at this online recently but can't find the link just now to confirm it.

    Thanks geordie_lass, a very interesting link. :T :T

    No 7 lip and cheek palettes (both carrying an amazing 20% donation)

    and a range of beauty accessories which include
    • a mirror & pouch,
    • kabuki brush & pouch,
    • nail files and gadget case, all with a 10% donation.
    It also took me to this link which shows the following:-
    • No7 lash 360 mascara (£11; 10% donated)
    • Mini kabuki brush (£5; 10% donated)
    • Cosmetics purse (£5; 15% donated)
    • Compact mirror (£5; 15% donated)
    • Key charm (£4; 15% donated)
    • Phone charm (£2; all profits donated)
    So SA was wrong when she criticised binkyboo, as Charity would get the 20% from the lip palette regardless of reduction. Problem is 20% of What? Profit or selling price :confused:

    Hello, I’m new to this, though have been reading through all the posts.

    Thank you to the person who pointed out the half Price Front Cover rainbow eyes set – this is top of my Christmas list!

    Something that occurred to me that I thought I’d post is:
    If you get 2 other things that are the same price, this would equal the same as if they were half price
    Eg All the Christmas stuff's on 3 for 2. So.... if the Eye stuff is £15, the best thing to do would be to get 2 other things the same value as each other, but less than the £15. That way, £15 is the most expensive price. SO if you got 2 other things of say £10 each, one of the £10 would be free. That would mean that they effectively were costing £5 each, which is exactly the same as it would be in the half price sale!!


    Also, if it is possible to use one of the No7 vouchers on the Christmas stuff, you could do better than in the sales
    Eg Buy the Front Cover eyes for £15 then buy a No 7 gift at £18 and something else at £18.
    You’d pay £18+£18 = £36 with the £15 free. If you were able to use the £5 voucher, the total would be £31.
    All these !tems in the sale would equal £15+£9+£9 = £33

    Have I got these workings outs correct?!

    Quick question- if you buy a 17 Christas Gift Set, do you still get the free eye dazzle?

    Thank you
