    Arn't the tins £4.99? hmm you would have to get something else with your purchase to get it over £5-only a penny i know, but sometimes all the little bits add up to a fair bit! and if you are like me you would get a packet or crisps or choccy bar to take it over £5 and that defeats the object of slimfast i guess! If you have enough no7 from last time id get it online, free postage so you dont have to lug the tins home and extra points on top!

    I think all the baby bargains have gone now but if anyone sees a moses basket really cheap can they pm me please. It will be for my niece due at xmas and they can't afford to pay full whack for something she won't be in long. Locally ive tried ebay and freecycle for them with no luck.

    All i got is shampoo on 342 today for 50p
    just caught up, oh no not pinkies again

    I will have to keep chanting to self ''i do not need any pinkies, i do not need any pinkies'' Do you think it will work?
    :)Mummy to 2 wonderful boys :)
    Want to be fit for 30 not fat at 30

    Hi Ess-six, glad you got the deal!

    Sorry, you got one brush at £14.99 and one pack of heads at £10.99 and used two £5 elec voucher, shouldn't that be £15.98? Am I missing something? :confused: also which one (dual, sonic...) did you get and did you use the 1500 points voucher also please? Many thanks.

    Yes, you're right, it should have been £15.98.

    I was totally thrown when the price for the heads displayed at £10.99 and not the £15.99 as per the SEL. Looking at the receipt I'm not much wiser - this is what it shows, hope it's readable:

    OralB D12 Pro £29.99 NOW £14.99
    Saving £15.00
    EB voucher redeem uk £0.00
    EB25-4 Triumph B/H £15.99
    (Includes previous Oralb D12 Pro)
    Saving £5.00 NOW £10.99
    EB till redeem uk £0.00
    (Includes previous EB25-4 Triumph B/H)
    (Includes previous OralB D12 Pro)
    Saving £5.00 -£5.00
    Total to pay £20.98

    Total saving today £25.00

    The SA didn't think it would accept both vouchers, and was very surprised when it did.

    So maybe the heads were £15.99, I'm totally lost the plot now:o .

    Have to log off now, but will be back on later this evening if anyone can solve this mystery!

    Forgot to mention - I didn't have a 1500 points coupon - is this a PC one?

    I am a bit disappointed today. My dot.com order from Wednesday 1st has arrived early (it was due tomorrow) no emails, not showing despatched even, but minus the mirrors. My order was placed at 09:05 - so it was an early order compared to some, but I still didn't get them :( they were promised to DD1 to reduce her Xmas shopping outlay this year (saving for wedding next year)

    There is no mention of being out of stock on the delivery note, or that they are in another box :confused: so I guess I haven't got them and am not going to get them either.

    Good luck to those of you that did get them!

    No, it has only taken one voucher off your shopping. My reciept says Eb Voucher saving £5 -£5 twice, where yours only says it once. But even if the till is not going to accept both vouchers it still goes through the till with no beeps IYSWIM. The first time i tried with one brush and a set of heads the till scanned the vouchers with no beeps but it still didnt take any money off because it wasnt over £30.
    i had to get something else so the vouchers would come off ann THEN it took the money off the total. an my reciept shows TWO savings of £5. hths

    EDIT: Called my bank and the original amount £80 is earmarked on my account waiting for Boots to do something about it. Now what?

    This happened to me after my .com order got cancelled, the amount hung around on my online banking for a few days then disappeared. :)

    Can someone please fill me in on the "pinkys" everyone keeps referring to - is there other No7 pinky or are you on about something else? :o Haven't been on a proper Boots trip since moving...yet ;)
