  • Hi jazzteddy, it's your daughter-in-law here! Funnily enough I got the massager from the website - it was the cheapest thing that triggered the No7 clutch bag free gift. Got it cos I always promise Tobias a back rub and never get round to it, haha, and have tried it once and it was really tickly. Not bad for a tenner, although the brush attachments feels like it's cutting you up, haha. The bumpy attachments are quite nice on your shoulders, but really quite noisy especially when it's that close to your ears - so not very relaxing, but I guess if you had music on it would be OK.

    HTH :)

    This has made me laugh..:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: you might need a set of step ladders to reach my very tall DS shoulders (only joking) and what music would he have on, to block out the noise of this thing....some thing subtle like System of a Down!

    I would like to know if this massager thing is classed as healthcare, so that I can get the extra £2.50 off it and still get the GWP.
    You know I like a bargain.:)

    Did you have to split them up into two different transcations(sp)? Or did you just do the 4 items in one, and it still gave you 1500 points? As on dot.com it says '2 or more' :)
    TIA! xxx
    You can do these all in one transaction instore, it gives you 750 points for every 2 items, however if you wanted more bluey2's then you would split your shopping instore anyway.
    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.

  • Becky 1236 - I did it in two transactions. I bought the two nail files to see if the offer would work instore and it did (there were some very hastily produced a4 printed posters up) so I went back to see what else was cheap and the wipes were there and I realised that they would be useful for when I'm travelling with work. I didn't get any blueys with those two transactions. Only got one when I bought the benefit stuff.

    Hi everybody.Has anyone ever exchanged a .com replacement order item?
    I had to call .com last week as when I recieved my order one of the items was damaged .They told me to keep the faulty item and sent out a new replacement,I tried the faulty item(it was perfume) and it's not very nice so I don't want to give that as a present now(it was for a friend).Will I be allowed to exchange the replacement?The invoice doesn't state replacement item or shall I just ask customer services?I would rather get tomorrows ootw and pay the £5difference-My friend would love that.

    Minimoneyme - I will let you know. However by far the best lipbalm I have tried is Rose & co cherry kiss -it smells a bit like the plastic food I had as a child with my al a carte kitchen back in the mid 80's and for some bizzaare reason I find it comforting. But works a treat on my cracked chops!;)

    I keep picking that up in Boots and wondering if it's any good....

    Haha something like that :p

    If you go to the website, you can find the no7 massager by going to Pharmacy and Health > Health Equipment > Toners and Massagers. So I reckon it should be classed as healthcare seeing as it's in that category. Probably best to find out from a proper Boots genius though cos I don't understand most of the stuff on this thread :rotfl: I see you've got the knack though, not long til they upgrade you to a platinum advantage card or something :D

    The box had been bashed and squashed amongst the other items in the delivery box so I wouldn't have been able to use it as a gift as it was ruined so they told me to keep the contents and sent out another

    Had a look on line and the massager does indeed come up as healthcare

    https://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?categoryParentId=3892&storeId=10052&productId=46124&callingViewName=&categoryId=4181&langId=-1&catalogId=11051

    As it is now £9.78p, I will have to buy a pack of paracetamol or something to make it up to £10, so that I can use the £2.50 off voucher that came with the free vitamins. That means that the massager and GWP will come up at only £7.50p. It might be the cheapest way to get the free NO7 GWP too.:T

    I used the Bluey1 on a Borgouise (sp) small glass nail file, paid 98p'ish. Goes nicely with the pink tweezers if you are making up a girlie "pink" hamper.

    Bluey2 also works on the TS handbag size firm hold, moisture resist hairspray too. Again nice little filler if making up a hair hamper.
