    Hi all Off Topic I know but I was just wondering if anyone knows if there is a Boots at Edinburgh Airport that is thru the security side. Have just booked holiday for July to Paphos and we normally fly from Glasgow and get things like meal deals and toiletries after we have been thru security. I know its a while away yet but we had to pay for our check in baggage and your only allowed 1 bag each :eek: TIA

    Yes, there is a Boots (or was, last time we flew from there).

    ooo, beaten to it :o

    ...Anyway, only standard points awarded on the Pantene - I'm hoping because the goods were input manually and not because it's been fixed. Will have to take them back later and try to repurchase in another store...... snipped

    100 points per sachet this morning here, despite OH trying to 'help' & talking loudly about the 'mistake' etc etc:rolleyes:

    Just want to say thanks to everyone whose been posting info (and keeping me entertained on this thread) over the past few weeks - before Christmas work was stupidly busy including some long days working somewhere else, I was ill and had Christmas stuff to do too so didn't check this thread or really my emails for about a week and completely missed the No7 skincare OOTW which I'm totally gutted about - only caught up with the thread on the Monday night quickly and checked local stores I could on the Tuesday and Wednesday but obviously long gone - the only OOTW I would have got I miss - still win some loose some and there are far more important things really - but it's still disappointing when you miss out on a bargain.

    Travelled down to see family on boxing day and missed the sales too, did go to some shops on the 27th but they were pretty empty having been open on boxing day - really didn't do well at all, but got a few things I really wanted with all my time delay etc points from early this year before Christmas so I'm pleased I did that.

    Whilst at my parents my dad produced the old blue voucher and I grabbed it quick - thanks to whoever first said you could get the tweezers with it for c.89p - did that on Saturday and they're great. Did 3 'essentials' shops of c.£5 so I've now got 3 blinkies and will treat myself to some No7 skincare stuff I think at the weekend with them.

    So thank you to everyone whose posted what they've spotted, shared offers and made me smile SandraScarlett especially recently ;) and here's to another great bootsing year :j

    Cardiff Llanishen store had no reduced No7 (or any clearance :rolleyes:). Not much of interest left in sale, except for Dior perfume sets and No7 protect & perfect skincare collection. Dior will be a good bargain in 75% sale, the J'Adore set has a large size of the perfume. There were no S&G gwps left but they was a sign up advertising them.

    Could anybody tell me what sort of stuff is left in the Quadrant Swansea sale? Thanks :)

    FYI my relative who works in Boots also said that the sale starts on the 14th.

    Hello everyone!

    Peace at last! DH back at work and DS1 back at nursery so have the computer all to myself!:j No more, 'your not on that grabbit thing again are you:rolleyes: ? Caught the cheeky so and so using my S&G i foam and commenting on how lovely it lathers up! Neither of us are keen on the smell but otherwise I love how it works.

    Unfortunately everything back to normal, nits have been reported at nursery this morning! I am a newbie to this nit busting but do recall someone mentioning this topic on here before. Thinking of getting a nit comb if it turns out little one has them and earning myself a blinkie. Well... might as well turn a bad situation to my favour! Is the comb I should get the nitty gritty one, think it was called that??? Will that do the trick or do I need to get a shampoo aswell and which should I get. I don't suppose Pantene do one for nits???!!!!!!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Last time pinkies were about I used them on R&M lip brushes and eye shadow brush and worked fine on these although these have since gone up in price as the eye one was deffo free first time around. Also recall it worked on Kabuki brush and mirrors from gift range. Did it work on the travel brush set, does anyone remember? There a few left of these in the sale and was wondering.....if the blinkie would work.

    Thank you to r.mac and luxor4t for the quick replies. Will maybe have to rethink the toiletries/suncream situation ie chuck half of DH stuff out of his case :rotfl:. Also just to say that the No7 250 points coupons I have are ending in 2549. Im pretty sure they were out the Ladies Gold GWP HTH

    Ok ladies I come bearing news :) same as MrsBB (Hi xxx)

    Been to Boots (where else);)

    Shelves full of perfume sets - not selling obviously :rolleyes:

    Anyway, I was raiding ACM machine and right beside me was Store Manager, 3 SA's and N07 lady.

    Store Manager - "Too many gift sets out here. What is the N07 stock like?"
    SA - There is curently 30 cages of gift sets & new range (:confused: ) out the back" (I don't know how I was still standing at this point)
    SM - "Ok, get all these sets off and fill it with N07"

    Five minutes later after allot of suspicious walking around out come the cages one after the oither.

    Somehow managed to trip over a cage to gander a look at the boxes and they all said N07!!!:eek:

    It must be Nationwide ladies.......... Roll on 75%

    When is it again :confused:
