Evening

Would be grateful for anyones advise as I have bought 2 no7 Perfect Pedicure sets, with pinkies, to give as Christmas presents.

I wondered if anyone has used one and are they any good? ( I know people haven't rated some of the other no7 electricals very highly) or would I be better off taking them back and exchanging for something else.

Thanks

I bought the No7 body massager the other day and its going back on saturday as its rubbish, makes far to much noise and tickles more than it massages.

I also bought the No7 illuminating mirror and I LOVE IT wish i had got it for £4.99 a few weeks ago using the TS, pinkie and £5 off electricals voucher but i paid £19.99 for it and i think its worth that. But i would have been extremely disapointed if i had pais £39.99 for it.

IMO i would take back the sets, without your receipt cos you wont get the pinkie back. Then you can exchange the sets for something else. Without a receipt they will give you credit for them at there current selling price.

If you take them back with the receipt they will not credit you the £5 pinkies you used. I hope that makes sense.

for some reason i never thought about taking it back! i was trying to stay away from boots until FCUK bag is OOTW but I will HAVE to go in now

Might have to make up a list just in case, but i would have thought that if they were they would have advertised it better, and i would have thought saturday would be a better day for them to do it.

not happy. really wanted the elle bag, OUT OF STOCK and she said theres no way of me having one. so had to buy two £20 items that I didnt want cause I wanted my bonus points, but she said I could swap them when the FCUK bag is OOTW and knbow my friend wants one so can swap two for two... I guess need to wait untill sale now... really messed my shopping up lol. and i got another ladies GWP and got the clear varnish... AGAIN!!! boo!

snipped...

I bought the No7 illuminating mirror too, but i'm really not impressed with it.:o
Don't find it very bright at all. Wish I'd taken in back, but whilst I still have box, i threw the rest of the packaging.
I really think No7 should stick to the Make-up etc and give up on electricals, as my compact mirror was faulty and that had to go back...

Thanks princesswoo for the advice xx

I don't know if this will be any good to anyone or not but I was in the Sunderland store last thurs for a friends pressie and bought mother pucker lip gloss set (3 lipglosses) a shimmering cream and a box of mini's from the soap and glory range (3 for 2) when i got home i wished i'd bought myself some as they seemed a bargain for £10 so I went on line to get some and relised the lip gloss was misspriced instore and should have been £17.50 but was priced at £4.38!!!! So I couldn't get back into town till today (trust kids to be poorly when you want something) I thought they'd have picked up on it but its still priced at £4.38 so a real bargain. Don't know if it's miss prced in all shops but its worth a look.
HTH x

Was this priced as £4.38 on the SEL, or did it just go through the till at this price please?
TIA
