Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 40 - Post your finds here

tillica

Also, seem to remember that last year there were triple points on offer most weekends in the run up to Christmas. Does anyone know if the same promotion is on this year? Thank you

Sorry for all the questions, but I am directing these operations from Mexico to my Mum in England!

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

I think the sa was concerned that as i was effectively paying nothing for my products the donation would be coming out of boots profits, which is why she was checking with the manager if they could actually sell it to me.

I asked recently if the pinkie and/or till spit can be used on a gift set but no one seemed sure. I know they cant be used if you are doing 342 on gift sets but i want a mens one and have a half price mens no 7 and various pinkies and till spits.I am going to try the £35 one and hopefully get it half price with £5 off and the GWP! The half price t &c dont mention any exclusions , but the front says 'any No 7 product' so may only work on an individual item.

I tried a pinkie on the No7 day set at £10 (was going to use a pinkie and a tillspit to get it for free on the SS tills) but it didn't work. Asked the nearby SA if it was excluded and she said she couldn't see why it would be and took my pinkie and gave me the £5 off at a normal till.

Might be different if the thing actually had the little green present logo on it

Did manage to get the Ruby and Millie natural eyes set for £5 after a tillspit and pinkie so still happy.

A BIG thank you to everybody that has sent me vouchers recently. I hope everybody that I have done swaps with are happy too .

I have tried to email everyone when I have received them but I think I may have left a couple out 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

I haven't seen any recently, though they tend to be the sort of thing only sold at Christmas I think.
There's a few on eBay here if this helps.

Also, Argos have them here but they are £24.99

Did the SA have to over-ride the till on both of these please, as they are both in the 3 4 2 gift section in my store and have the green stickers?
TIA

For those who shop at Speke Retail Park Liverpool, if you pay at the Pharmacy counter they give out till spits, been getting normal pinkys from other tills. HTH

Morning everyone,

I know it's probably been asked already but on the Christmas shopping days can you use pinkies so you'd only need to spend £45 or does the total spend after vouchers have to be £50? doesn't really matter either way but just thought id ask.

TIA

She didn't on the Ruby and Millie, but did on the No7.

Thanks Lusive.

I was looking at this, and the R & M brush in a red case yesterday, and wasn't sure if they would work. I did get the R & M mirror, even though the SA didnt want to try it :mad: , so I might give these a try next time. I will let you know if it works or not.

I have both a fragrance and an electrical voucher to swap for No7 pinkies if anyone is interested. Please pm me.
