    Yes the lip stuff is the same kind of packaging as the line smoother. My local Boots didn't have them until recently and there was no shelf label for them either. £7 each...£2 with voucher. :)

    See here.

    Are you telling me that the No7 makeup gift sets like the lipstick and Nail varnish have a 200 point voucher in them.

    I was not going to buy one of them as I don't use nail varnish but do use lipstick. I might pop down to get one with my points as they are £2.50 each. So in the end will cost me 50p. As I have No7 £5 voucher.

    Ithought they were in the £15 gift sets but it might have been the freebie bags in december.

    They stock it in our local mini-branch. For anyone who hasn't seen this line, it isn't just aromatherapy oils, but a bathing range, you can also find the bubble bath in the miniatures section usually.

    Don't get your hopes up for the coupons from the pre-Christmas freebie, the coupon expired on Jan 6th, as I noted to my cost on the 7th!

    Lots of leaflets and TD range in weston super mare, at the back of the store near the baby items they still had lots of last years gift sets and in the middle of the shelf are some of the TD massage cleansing balms reduced from £8.50 to £4.25, so i got 2 of these with my vouchers and managed to find some of the aromatherapy grapefruit and lime body sprays for 50p, so free with the voucher
    I am going to miss this next week as i am going to Majorca in the morning for 4 days, in true money savers style we got the flights for £5.99 each, each way and a 4* hotel for £20 a room a night half board.
    Happy shopping to everyone next week, I hope I dont miss too many bargains!!

    Hi burnham1
    Might be worth taking some vouchers with you if the airport you're flying from has a Boots, use some on the way out and some when you arrive back.
    Have a great time.
    So far I've only managed to get 2 DR products, it was bogof and used 300 points voucher from the Boots mailing.
    I'm going to try a different branch tomorrow.

    Again someone else who missed my point totally. I was talking about people gets 100 + items to sale on and not for there own use.

    I did say and will say again I have no problems with people getting supplies for friends or family or as presents.

    So before replying make sure you read the post and previous post properly.

    Oh please another one telling me what the site is about. I do know but there is a fine line between taking advantage of an offer and then taking it to far.

    I agree with Calley; a few items for personal use is fine but the people who are getting them to resell - or even reselling the vouchers on ebay are the ones causing the problems that make it difficult for the rest of us.

    I am reeling and left speechless. Why? Well I have just worked out how much the goods I got from Boots over the last couple of days is worth!

    today I got:
    2 X TD toners - free
    2 X TD wipes- free
    2 X TD facial exfoliators free
    2 X DR nail kits - one free one £3.49
    3 X TD moisturisers (£10 each but on 2- 4-3)- got one free, one £10.00, one £5.00 with leaflet voucher ( I did it on 2-4-3 and used one of the leaflet vouchers so I could get the N07 voucher worth £5.00 as well - if I had done this as three sepearate transactions would still have cost me a total of £15 but no N07voucher)
    3 x Aromatherapy candles - free with voucher in purple leaflet but worth £2.99 each!
    2 x Spa pamper kits- £2.50 each but were £8.00 each

    So to sum up today I spent a total of £23.50 in Boots and got stuff worth £98.00 and a £5 No7 voucher!
    I also got loads of Bodyform towels for free today.
    Yesterday was slightly better in that I got £100 TD stuff for £10.50 (don't ask)

    But thanks to this web site and the original OP I am using proper skin care for the first time in ages, I have fallen in love with the range (especially the moisturisers) and intend to use every last bit of it or give the rest to my mum or as pressies. Oh and thanks for saving me an absolute fortune - must go and have a lie down and have a rest:T all this money saving is too overwhelming!
