    I'm still getting the BOGOF on Evian vouchers and yesterday I bought 2 of the white gift bags which were supposed to be reduced to £11.99 as I knew they'd come in handy for presents. When they went through the till it knocked a further £3 off them so I got 2 gift bags for £8.99 :D

    I tried that in Bristol Galleries yesterday and it didn't work for me...though I did get £140 worth of reduced stuff for £40 (used £80 points and £20 vouchers from Piggypoints). Loads of pressies put away for next Christmas!

    I've just bought the No. 7 High Lights illuminating lotion in 'Golden lights' reduced by 50% to £4.75, plus the advantage card machine gave 150 extra points for buying anything from the Christmas range, which this was.

    This is brilliant stuff - it is just like Benefit's Moon Beam which costs £15 for about a quarter of the size of the No. 7 one. Gives a lovely glow, and you can use it all over your face, or just to highlight your cheekbones.

    D stands for Dear (or Darling). Took me a while to figure out too when I first came across the terms a few years ago :)
  • hi, sorry if this has already been posted, i did a search but couldnt find it.
    In my local boots sale today i found a no7 set which has a lipstick, compact mirror and a £20 no7 voucher reduced from £25 to 12.50.

    so you get a £20 voucher for £12.50. plus i noticed on the back it says it can be used on any products from boots stores, not just no7.

    it was with the other no7 sale items, in the gifts area.
  • Apologies if this has been mentioned on another of the Boots threads, but with my "100 points on any professional shampoo, conditioner, or styling product" I managed to get it accepted on a sachet of "John Frieda, Sheer Blonde, Hair Repair, strengthening and conditioning treatment" at 99p. The slip does state it cannot be used on miniatures, gift sets or trial sizes so I was a bit worried they wouldn't redeem it, however it went through okay. So 100 points for a product costing 99p!

    Trouble is, I'm not blonde. I'm a bottle red-head....

    I bought three of the £15 Sanctuary gift sets today. They were all half price and the Sanctuary stuff was all advertised "3 for 2" so I got 3 for £15 and paid with points!. The girl on the till thought I was trying to get the mix n match 3 for 2 offer which has expired but when I showed her the Sanctuary advertising "3 for 2" she put them through. 3 nice presents to put away I think.
  • I got the 100 points for shampoo, just as staff were reducing Boots own 'ProVitamin' 250ml to 24p!
    Tried one and it went through, giving 100 points on a 24p spend.....................so went back and got another 5 bottles! That was all the Advantage machine would give me, 6.
    Then got 2 Evain face wipes for 60p.
    Used 250 points for any number 7 product (from the xmas gift boxes), on a reduced suncream at 49p.
    They had loads of hair products reduced left (shelves of it, even the 24p stuff), upstairs in Lewisham branch late this afternoon. The only machine working was upstairs as well, the 2 downstairs had 'Out of order' signs on them, but I don't think they were.
