Aww, broclo that's a shame

Oddly though, I've had an email from .com saying my order's been dispatched it's still saying it's the "S&G" ones though, even though it was the gold ones that I ordered........ so not sure what's going to turn up!

:j Ah well that is good

Think mine were cancelled as ended up being put through ages after saying about the things :rolleyes:

Which magazine is the free eyedazzle voucher in please? I looked at the Best magazine for November and it did not have Fern Britton on the front. Is it this one or another? tia

I think it was in last week's magazine. I may have a spare voucher at home that you could have. If I find it, I'll PM you, and you can send me your address if you want it.

Haven't been on here for a while.....Hi to all who know me!

I've just logged on to check my points balance after ordering online on the weekend and everything is zero. Was hoping to see almost £20 worth...has this happened to anyone else today?

Just checked mine - all gone too :eek:. I'm going to check on the acm later as I had a nice little stash of points. Although it says 0 points it doesn't say that any have been removed so I'm hoping it's just a temporary thing, and they will be there waiting on my card. - hope yours turn up too.

The points have been like that for a while since they changed the website dont worry you have not lost them

Now, the cardboard is quite hard to get off the sets without damaging, but I somehow need to siphon off the voucher - anyone managed it without damaging the cardboard wrapper? or any ideas on how best to get the voucher out??

Hi jamtart, I used a rounded butter knife. I slid it between the 2 tuck flap things on the cardboard wrapper and prised them up individually. The knife distrubutes an even pressure so they don't tear

Ruby and Millie Sets -
I have 3 for presents (including bday presents next year) - but have just found out there are vouchers inside, which I obviously don't want to give with bday presents as people will realise I bought the sets at xmas (not that it should matter but some people can be funny!)

Now, the cardboard is quite hard to get off the sets without damaging, but I somehow need to siphon off the voucher - anyone managed it without damaging the cardboard wrapper? or any ideas on how best to get the voucher out??

Yip, patience:rotfl: I know what you mean but i found that just gently tugging at the sleeve and moving it from side to side where the little slots are meant that it loosened slightly after a bit and easily slide out. I did it with two of mine that i'm planning to give as xmas gifts- waste not, wan't not:D

ETA: SK's method sounds a whole lot better & quicker than mine lol

Quick note from Mr BTVB...

Someone asked last weekend if any of the Boots in Cambridge have an Elizabeth Arden counter - Mr BTVB has just been into the Petty Cury (City centre) store, and says "yes there is one there".

HTH whoever it was asking (really sorry, can't remember ) and that the answer is not too late

Right, back to catching up

Nope! not too late thank you very much!

Well, the good news is both my local stores have more of the 17 GWP after running out yesterday . Unfortunately neither store are taking part in the Christmas events and this morning I tried my Best coupon for the free Eye Dazzle with the GWP and Wipes/Nail polish but the coupon would not go through. Even manually typing in did not help :mad: . SA reckons it will work after 3pm :rolleyes: . Boohoo.

Would love to swap a couple of Best coupons for just a brown Eye Dazzle or the bits from the GWP tin . PM me if you can help, thanks!

Thanks for posing and answering the R&M question. I've just liberated the vouchers from my stashed sets.
