I recently ordered the slimfast and, like others have mentioned, use by dates are all feb 09. Is there anything we can do about it, as it's alot to get through by then....! I assume we can't raise it as an issue, as it would highlight the 'cheapness' of the deal?

Guess I'm a lucky girl then, mine are by March 09, so there!

ok chaps and chapesses, I know there have been a few postings on this already, but just to clarify:

The sale will NOT be starting tomorrow. It will be on 26th as I mentioned last night. It will be at 50% off.

The .com sale won't be starting over the next couple of days either as there is still time to order and receive it before christmas.

HTH

btw, anybody found fighting, biting, kicking, screaming or farting to get that all illusive 'last one' on the shelf during the sale will have to forfeit ad card for 6 months. you have been warned :rolleyes:

p.s. polls, that photo of you on the counter has made my day!

I wouldn't worry to much about the dates on the slimfast. I've drank it 6 months out of date and it didn't do me any harm.

I stocked up on Slimfast when they could be had for free from Tesco in the good old Health & Beauty days (if you had the right coupons you could gain loads of Tesco points and get products for free too, probably about a year ago now). Trust me, they DO go off!! I loved the coffee flavour Slimfast shakes but had far too many to use within their dates. When I found some more at the back of my cupboard a few weeks over their date I tried one and it had all gone lumpy _pale_ , not nice! Chucked them all out. Just wanted to warn you .

Forgot to mention that on Friday Cambridge Retail Park had naff all in the way of No7 For Men gift sets apart from a couple of the washbags, no Dior boxsets left, and some of the other gift sets seemed to be selling well. Mr BTVB and I have spent most of our points over the last week getting all the gift sets we wanted for ourselves while they were still on 342 and we could get our grubby little mitts on them...They are all things we really wanted, and would have been disappointed if we'd not found these items in the sale.

Can't remember prices, but we got: the Natural Collection Goody Bag, NC Toiletry bag, NC lip licker purse (primarily for the bags themselves for when we go on holiday, but the contents will be useful for weekends away and such), a mini Swiss army knife (for moi ), a set of 100 wipe clean Sudoku cards for Mr BTVB, and a set of Accessorize makeup brushes (again for moi ). Then today Mr BTVB got 3 of the No7 For Men Anti-aging balm/face scrub sets. So we've got everything we wanted - plus I am hoping that Santa brings me a Liplicious set and a No7 brush set too :rotfl:.

Then I gave in to my inner Dior ***** today and bought the Midnight Poison 50ml boxset in the city centre...or rather Mr BTVB did and I'll pay him back when I get paid He got over £6 worth of points with it so I think he is quite happy!
