    I'm sure she said she was touring when she was talking to Dermot after her performance!
    I think you'd look amazing, probably out class Mariah anyway!!! You could take her to Boots afterwards!

    Thanks darling. You are a doll. Will deffo go to one of her concerts if she is doing one here. I have a friend who is also a mad Mariah fan. All our texts are Mariah lyrics. So if she texts me "Oh when you walk by everynight, talking sweet and looking fine", I text her back and say "Heartbreaker, you got the best of me, but I keep on coming back incessantly". LOL. Told you, I'm mad. I'm a total Mariah-a-holic! Go Mimi! :p:p
  • Took my mother bootsing for the first time today.

    Well we spent an hour in the store going up and down each aisle!!!!

    Got 2 umberto gianni elixir for £6 (instead of £19.98), so that impressed her for a start. Also used 100pts from acm.

    Next got the No7 eyeliner (no voucher in acm for me for that one), No 7 eye palette, No7 Aftershave balm and gwp. (when we paid for this the sa told us about the voucher in the back of the mag and let us have this aswell)

    Next we got an electric toothbrush for £24.99 (half price from £50). There was a man there promoting the toothbrushes and said he could knock off £5 extra from the £35 one for us but my mum didnt want to spend that much on a toothbrush (dont know why - only £5 more than the one she got!!).

    We also got some ROC wipes for 99p using the blue.

    I also used a 100pts when u spend over £30 and 3 pinkies/tillspits.

    All in all (with a few other bits) she spent £69, saved £55 and got 750 odd points. (Well actually i got the points!!!)

    She was well impressed - we may have a new bootser in our midst!!!

    When i wanted to go back and get some toys later on she was quite eager!!!

    Only downside was that they had run out of the No7 star palette and there is no EA counter in our Boots.

    P.S. I couldnt spot a clearance bit and i was too scared to ask!

    P.P.S. Mimi i think ur brill!! U actually make me lol!
  • It was Wrekin Retail Park in Telford...very tempted to go back & see if they have more tomorrow!! Think there were 4 left when I got mine.

    never been to that one before - its a bit far for me!! still managed to get lost whilst driving to the fort using a sat nav!! how dumb!! xxx :confused:
    go to the graze website and enter this code: 4LKM1R3B to get your first graze box free and the second half price!!

    Got 10 x NO 7 TRIO TRINKET things. I know some people wanted me to get some for them, I will be putting them on eBay, so find me on there! Managed to use some points up. Happy joy. PS. Can someone explain what the yellow/red things in there are and what is the silver amulet thing? Is it just for show? I'm confused.

    Hi Mimi

    Could you let us know when you have done this, I need one of these, not sure what they are for, or why I might need one but I need one none the less:rotfl:

    Ta:D

    =====================================================
    Went to Lakeside today, had 3 till spits and 3 pinkies left and gave them to my friends to use because I was sick of the sight of them:rotfl: (the pinkies, not my friends!!). They got 2x No7 pedicure sets, 2 No7 nail files in the case and 2 nail varnish between them and were really pleased as they had to spend so little money.

    I also bought my nephew the Vtech digital camera with my points and also the S&G coin purse (bit big for a coin purse I think but still nice). I am all shopped out now and am so glad I don't have to go out to use the rest of my T?S/Pinkies tomorrow:j .

    Have a good evening everyone

    Mel

    Has anyone got the new 250 points vouchers in the no7 gwps to go through the till without a beep? I'm thinking they haven't been activated in the system yet. But if they are working, I'll try again tomorrow. :)

    I have used the ones out of the new women's GWP twice with no problems on SS tills. The one I did have poblems with was the one out of the old men's GWP. It wouldn't scan and points had to be added on manually.

    HTH.
  • Today was last chance for me to use my last pinkie, and I could only get to a smaller Boots. There was no No7 sun stuff or Christmas edition cosmetics and no R&M. I spotted some reduced No7 radiance brush foundation, but unfortunately not my shade. Was about to give up then found the most gorgeous new shade nail varnish - No7 Stay Perfect in Vivid Violet. It was the last one too, the SA said its proving very popular.
    I bought this the other day:D ..I agree it is lovely..better than the two taffetta ones that i got in the GWP's:rolleyes:
    This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.

    I tried to use the voucher from the old men's GWP today but would not go through. the SA said it says expired but it hasn't so asked the SA on the next till who said it is because it can't be used with the pinkie. I didn't argue - plenty of time to use it but I used one last week and that went through no problem!

    Aww honey. Hope things are OK. Glad I made you laugh. Have a hug.

    MELGIRL, pm me your address, I'll fling one of the TRIO TRINKLETS in the post. I still owe you for the FRAGRANCE vouchers. Bob me your address love, and it will be in the post on Monday. Thanks.

    And before anyone thinks I'm a troll for getting stuff from BOOTS on putting it on eBay, I'm only trying to get rid of all my points. I think £160 worth is way too much. LOL.
