    I have bought quite a lot of lynx shower gels/sprays and No7 mens toiletries recently and would like to get hold of some nice mens wash bags to put them in. Has anyone any ideas on where I can buy some really nice bags quite cheaply?

    My second question is to peeps with inside info:D is No7 suncare going to be on BOGOF anytime soon? fingers (and everything else) crossed it will be, so we can get the new No7 GWP without spending much;) TIA

    Hi there

    Do you just enjoy buying all this stuff and getting the freebies - or do you actually use it? it's not really money saving if you are just buying it to give it all away.:confused: IYKWIM

    Good point. The blokes stuff I use. The ladies stuff I give out to friends and family for birthdays/celebrations, not everything mind you. *** Anyway, I thought that was the whole point of BOOTSing, getting bargains and stocking up. I doubt very much all the ladies that have bought have a collection R+M mirrors are gonna use them all. *** And the top ups I buy for friends, but obviously they pay for them! I just get the PINKIES for my services. *** Good point though, will stop BOOTSing as much as I do!
  • :rotfl: I knew there would be someone on here who'd have both :D Thanks ever so much geordie_lass - I will remember to pack it in my bag for a lil shopping spree next week, and remember to press skip bagging :)

    Thanks *hugs*

    Watch out if doing this on the SS tills as when i did mine it had a security tag on and had to ask the SA to remove it for me before i left the store..

    It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.

    Mr B knows what he's doing with some of these glitches. I'm sure it gets a lot of us spending money we normally never would. Before discovering bootsing I probably spent about a fiver in the shop a year! It's become much more of a hobby for me though and I enjoy it (sad eh?). I think I'm sorted for not just this xmas but most birthdays next year and that's where the money saving kicks in for me.

    No R&M mirrors left today! Must be more bootsers around my local than i realise :D
  • evening all...well I'm glad to report the following worked together...20% off mini mode WYS £20 then 10% off mini mode WYS 15 PC coupon and then 20% off mini mini mode fom email......rock on!!! £15 twin set of pyjamas cost me £8.40

    Had a very good shop today even though I forgot to use a few vouchers.....thinking of taking back some skincare stuff I brought for my sister...does any one know what the refund policy is? Is it only if she has had a reaction?
