    Does anyone know if there's a Elizabeth Arden stockist in Devon?? The chap on the Boots number thinks Bristol is the nearest and Leamington Spa after that!!! And they're MILES away. I've bought the magazine just to get eyeshadows and thinks I may have wasted my money :(
    Try using the link on the 2nd post for the store locator. Just put in your postcode and tick the Elizabeth Arden box, and it will tell you your nearest one.

    I would recommend everyone does that rather than phone, as it's free!

    I went back to Deepdale today, only to find that the EA lady was having a day off. So I asked the SA who was milling around if she could assist, and she just handed me a box from the cupboard. I've not opened it but it looks quite substantial. Yay!!
  • I have been to Meadowhall this afternoon, All the 50 they had were given out by yesterday (Thursday), not expecting to get anymore. I was told to try Leeds or Manchester! Dont think I'll bother.
  • I purchased my Prima magazine in Asda and took the voucher to the nearest Boots store at Aintree only to find it didn't have an EA counter. Doh! I then went to the Southport Boots to be stonewalled by what can only be described as a harridan. She informed me I would have to have a 40 minute consultation AND purchase an item to collect my 'free' gift. I would have been happy to have a consultation but how can a gift be free if you have to make a purchase? I could only book in for the consult the following week and she then informed me the 'free' stock would probably all be gone by then. I offered to take my free eyeshadow then whilst she still had stock and return for the consult but she wouldn't budge. Grr
  • Just To Let People Know There Are Only About 30 Boots Stores That Are Actually Particapating In This Offer
  • Oh Forgot To Say There Is No Point In Checking The Store Locater Because That Shoews You Who Stocks Elizabeth Arden Not Who Is Doing The Offer

    Are you sure, Tinkerbell (sorry - are you a Boots employee?)? Aren't there supposed to be 10,000 of these palettes in circulation? If only 30 stores are participating, that's a lot of stock per store, and a poster above mentioned the one she went to only received 50.

    The store I got mine from isn't a particularly big one, with a teeny EA concession.

    How many stores have an EA concession? Anyone know? And is there a way of finding out which ones have stock? Has anyone been told by an EA lady that their store isn't participating?
  • Anyone in Northern Ireland got one?

    Boots in Manchester city centre had run out when I went this afternoon. Might try the Trafford Centre tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

    Suggestion
    Phone up your local Boots
    Ask if they have any of these sets - if so, ask them to put one aside for you
    If not, phone the next nearest one, until you get one which has them in stock.
    Saves petrol, money and reduces stress - in theory !!
    I got mine put aside for me, then couldn't find any store selling the Mag :eek:
    That included, Tesco, Asda, Smiths, Boots, and all Local Newsagents between me and Boots - ended up buying one in M&S:p
    So still stressed out !!

    BUT, I have got the set ( not even opened it yet) and I only bought the mag once I knew I had the set already saved for me.
    By the way, whilst hunting for Prima - several of sa's said "you're the xxx person to ask for this, is there something special in it ?"
    I said No !!
    Am I naughty ?:confused:
    I thought of you guys and gals who have already bought the mags, have the coupons and no free gift yet. I figured you didn't need more competition trying to track down those still available :p
