You could get 3 of the No7 mens items @ £6.50 each (on offer @ 342 so £13.00), the No7 mens GWP (free), and 1 x No7 cosmetic sponges @ £4.00 (this takes your spend to over £20.00 so you can use the PC voucher).

This should then be £7.00 to pay when the pinkie and voucher come off. Not bad for all those items

HTH

Thanks for that but Im after something for a woman!!! Its for a raffle at work!!

Gocat, can I suggest you call customer services. Boots have been a right royal pain in the !!! for me this week.

Ordered GHD's and some Botanics Wipe's. £100.33 and 2900 points. Bargainous. Hmmm maybe not. I got a dispatch email, all ok. Then I got another one saying they had cancelled the GHD's as they were out of stock. I checked online and they still said in stock so I called customer services. I got passed through to a senior person who assured me that only £2.33 had been applied for and as the ghd's had been cancelled in error they would honour the points and I could reorder. So I did. This time I ordered an eyeliner I wanted and the GHD's totalling £101.49 and 2004 points. I think everything is fine then what should turn up but the first Boots order - containing GHD's!!! So I check my bank and they have applied for the full £100.33 even tho senior boss lady assured me only £2.33 gone, and then I think oh balls I don't want the second order and can't afford another £100 to come out of bank. So I call customer service who say there is nothing they can do about it. Luckily I was tired and fed up of ringing up so just said ok well I will refuse delivery then and they said ok you do that. Then I get an email telling me that the 2nd order has been despatched but that the GHD's have been cancelled off again. So there I am thinking !!!!!! not again, luckily I paid via paypal this time and having checked my emails and paypal have only been charged £3.49 which is the price of the eyeliner. Woohooo, and they are going to honour the points on the second order but its still been a load of hassle I could have done with out.

On a lighter note I just got a job with Body Shop and secondly I have had my eyelashes permed and tinted today so I feel pampered lol x

Good luck with the job. What are GHD's? Have emailed boots to query why they cancelled my order. If no reply will phone them later but it sounds a lot of hassled by phone . I had ordered last weeks offer (FCUK) 3 4 2 = £50 and a half price Blood pressure monitor and a few toiletries. All went through ok at the time. When I tried to re-order just now the FCUK's were now £150 for 3 and Blood pressure monitor out of stock. Why the hell didnt they email me to say the BP monitor was out of stock now. But they could have still sent me the remainder of my order for free postage as it would still have been over £40 without the BP monitor. :rolleyes:

Morning all

I've got a £5 off £20 (No7 and R&M) Pc voucher and a pinkie to use by today...can anyone suggest a great combo as I dont want to spend much?

TIA

I was going to suggest you buy the mens stuff too:D you could buy 3 womens items @ 7.00 each = 14.00 after 3 4 2 kicks in - pc voucher - pinkie, leaving 4.00 to pay. I'm not sure if there is anything for 7.00 though. If not, look for stuff thats close to 7.00, just make sure it all adds up to 20.00 or just over before 3 4 2.

Is all No7 3 4 2?

Have you checked your recepit? It is possible that even tho' you gave the mirror first the till rearranged the items and your mirror was counted as the free item You might have to ask the SA to do it manually and tell her /him you want the other £6 item to be the free one.

Rather than getting the SA to pay *way* too much attention to your transaction, a foolproof solution is to either get one item that is less than £6 or to get two mirrors.

RedBalloon

What about a No7 retractable lip brush (£7.50) and a couple of nail varnishes (£6.50 each). Then 3 for 2 kicks in = £14 then hand over pinky and PC voucher = £4! If the GWP qualifies for womens stuff as well then you could get this too as the till will see you've spent enough (before the discounts kick in!)

booeyhugh

GHD's are hair straighteners hun, don't be put off by my saga it was the computer cancelling things rather than the customer services dept they are usually really helpful like when i complained that my gwp didnt have an eyeshadow in and they gave me 1000 points and then i found out the gwp wasnt even supposed to have an eyeshadow in it doh lol xx

You could get No7 Protect & Perfect hand cream for 10.75, no7 hand saviour for 10.50, and maybe something else hand-related (nail polish, maybe? or maybe something for yourself if you don't need all three items for the raffle?). It's 342, so after vouchers you would end up paying around 10 quid and have a themed set for the raffle. Then you could take another pinky and get the moisturising gloves for 1 pound, or else the nail buffers for free.
