Fyi, do we know that the new pinky will work with the big no7 mirror? And with the electrical voucher? If anyone tries it, please report back!

There was a story in Marie Claire online a couple of months ago about how S&G was starting a new skincare line in October, so there should be lots of new products. Just tried to do a search and couldn't find it, but did find a mention that they sell S&G at Target in the U.S. now! So anyone taking hols there might want to pop into Target (where they also sell No7 items at less than half of what it costs here).

Thanks for that skibster. I love Bliss skincare products which boots now sell, and originally started trying S&G products as they were made by the same company. So i'm really excited to see what their skincare range is like. Even better if i can pick up this new GWP peeps have mentioned seeing:j

Now, if only Mr B would start stocking philosophy products i would be one happy bunny

Hi Everyone,

I was given 500pts & 300pts on No.7 new radiance Brush Foundation today from the ACM & also have a 500pts & 450pts on No.7 sent through the post plus a £5 pinky so was thinking 2 x P & P plus new foundation 342 =£35.50 less pinky = £30.50 & 1750 points back :j :j :j

Thats if SA will play ball & put them all through!

All went through no probs & no bleeps! Sooooo all the above for £32.99 used £30 gift card, left me £2.99 to pay & a new pinky!

Well after today’s depressing experience with boots, was going to take a break ............snipped...............Guess you true boosters had learned to live with the up and downs with boots and to balance your dignity and getting a bargain. ................snipped

That is very well put - it took me a while to do this. I had a few embarrassing Bootsing experiences before I found my 'balance', e.g. there's nothing wrong with it but I'd never get another GWP without the purchase because I can't handle the stress lol. And I would never use one of the coupons which beeps - I only go for anything that is 'virtually free' and 'hassle free' lol.
Hope you don;t give it up altogether!:D

sorry - slightly off topic

I love Philosophy stuff too. The pink lemonade handcream is the best! I have to have it shipped from NY. (you can get some stuff in John Lewis as well) Boots occasionally do sell the gift sets, I bought the birthday girl set for my sister a few years ago. I didn't realise the same company made Bliss and Philosophy, I will have to try it.

I asked at Kingston Park today and was told they are not out until tomorrow.

Also all the signs are up for the Soap & Glory GWP but no actual GWPs to be seen. Asked SA and she was fairly exasperated saying this always happens, new GWP come out but they don't actually send us any.......

Sorry hun i meant the same people made Soap and Glory and Bliss products. Thanks for the info on the philosophy sets, I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for them instore now. I always check their beauty boutique online in the hope that they see sense and add the range- just think of the points i could be getting x

Just back from boots...also spotted the Mitchums on 2 for £3.50 got 2 and used 2 x £1.50 and 2 x £1 = £1.50 off rest of my shopping.
Also spotted oral b stages kids toothbrushes on offer at £1.52 - handy if you have the 100pts PC coupon like me.
What is curious though is the acm gave me 200 and 500pts on the no.7 foundation brush thing, so if other peeps have had 300 then theres a really good combo there. Didn't have time to check my other 2 cards as had both sons :mad: but will do tomorrow.
