Evening All - tried to get Olay Handcream with bluey in Tunbridge Wells today, but no joy sadly.

Got new No7 gwp - nail colour in mine was 'Oyster'. Purchased the lovely star highlighter pallette and twinkle lip gloss and used both Ts and Pinky, so saved £10.00:j Also tried to use £5.00 off No7 colour cosmetics from mailing, but SA checked with No7 girls who said NO, 'cos I was already using the TS and Pinky combo. Oh well, it was worth a try........

No No7 compact make up mirrors in sight - boo!

One more thing - hugs to mimi and hope you are feeling much better tomorrow xx

Got 3 no7 bathing products 342 for 11 pounds with gwp using ts + pinkie on an ss till but did not get a new skincare voucher. Are these not given by the ss tills?

No, they are being handed out manually now, SS are not giving out 'spits this time.

Think you also qualified to get a No7 bag GWP with your bathing items too. If you didnt get it to scan through, go back and claim it. It's like a gold paper bag with ribbon tied through the top..

Hi
I believe they have stopped them, now the SA gives you one when you have finished your transaction.

My SA had a huge pad and ripped one of, though many people missed out on one, ie not aware there was a new ts.

One SA on 3 SS tills was not enough, helping customers and trying to give out ts to customers :rolleyes:

Good work, agent Scorpio! Do you know if you can get the women's gwp with men's items, though? And if you can use the acm voucher for 3 quid off men's no7 along with the ts/pinky? One final question, is it in fact a 15 quid spend for the women's gwp? Tia

It says on the signs in store in the small print that you can choose a mens or womens GWP. HTH

Thanks Skibs

1.) Didn't try it that way round (getting the womens GWP instead with mens items) as tbh, i really don't like the womens No7 GWP Just not my taste at all. The mens ones are lovely though this time round, so got 2x of them instead.
EDIT: Seems the answer is now yes to this. Thanks Rotheram Lass
2.) Didn't see a voucher on my ACM for £3 off mens No7, :eek: was this from a mens AC card? Will put in OHs tommoz and have a look see.

3.) Hmm, don't know, didn't want the womens GWP. But again, will try it out tommoz for you hun if no one reports otherwise

Does anyone know if there is an Elizabeth Arden counter in Chelmsford High Chelmer? I vaguely recall there being one but Boots.com says Lakeside or Bluewater are the nearest.

TIA

I tried to scan the bag but it came up saying I hadn't qualified and since it was just a paper bag I left it. I'm not so keen on the ss tills if I'm not gauranteed a bluey, unless I've something to hide like ts & pinkie combo.

Evening all

Well I had a really bad day in boots today.

I decided to do a few transaction using ts and pinkie today and managed to do two transactions then the woman that polices the ss till spotted me and said ooh no you cant use two vouchers, I cant let you have it at that price.

I said oh right ok I thought they were different, (played dumb you know)

I said ok well I will just take the rest of my shopping to a normal till save all this kufuffle with the vouchers.

My mum happended to then over hear her talking about me with a manager.

I felt really stressed walking out and dont know if I can take any more of this feeling edgy ever time I shop. I feel like now I cant go back to this store as they will be watching me.

I have had enough now I think. Im no good at this :-(

It has really put me in a downer all day. Not because I didnt get a bargain just because of the stress of it all.
