thanks for the info (also rmac for info re Fort Kinnaird)
Which one is the Make It Big set,whats in it?
I tried Craigleith ,Straiton and the Gyle and no S&G sets to be seen.I did get a Fish hair gel/body wash gift set for part of OHs Birthday and a Jamie Oliver Creme Brulee set.At the Gyle I got a Diesel Fuel for life gift set for £17.xx (for me!)and a half price Totes Umbrella/shopping bag set for SILs birthday ,it'll go with the S&G set I got online.Oh and nearly forgot some half price beer sets for OHs birthday!
I am nearly out of points now but its great not spending money and filling your bags!
I saw some front cover sets but can't remember for sure but think it was Craigleith.
I lost the plot in the Body Shop and bought some Raspberry body scrub and body butter at half price......................but I DO NOT NEED IT my cupboards are full ................BUT IT SMELLS DEVINE!:rotfl:

dotchas:) I nearly bought the body shop body butters yesterday too:D It's a great offer, but I told myself I didn't really need it. I'm being really good at the moment (not sure how long this will last:rolleyes: ). And anyway, DH wardrobe is full of body butters (nowhere else to put them;) ) I still have the lomi lomi stuff I got with the £3 off vouchers when the sanctuary stuff was reduced. I also have some kypi body butters, soap and glory, little me, botanics (from a glitch ages ago) and med body butters I got with a PC bogof voucher, plus the creams in the GWP that I got with the latter...that's all I can remember at the moment, but I bet there's way more:D

off topic (again!:o )I've just been on the Avon site and got some bargains. Thanks to the OP who mentioned the free mascara and free delivery. I also discovered if you've placed an order with them before, you become an A list member. They have special offers for A listers. I bought: 3 eyeliners, 2 nail polish, 1 lip gloss and got a free mascara all for £7.50 + I went through quidco for 15% cash back:D

thanks thats a great price
do you think that they is a lot of difference between the face serum and the body serum? anyone in the know?

I have used them both. Yes I'd say they are different - they feel different anyway. If you tried the face one on your body it would feel nice but wouldn't go very far. The body one seems much creamier (a bit heavy for the face tbh)

Happy Holidays everyone!

Just thought someone might want to know. My most recent boots order was placed on 25 Dec, at about 1130pm. (I didn't realize I had managed to stay up that late!) The delivery date was the 5th of Jan but to my surprise a box showed up this morning. Only a part of the order showed up, but both parts on the boots website shows dispatched ont he 28th. Oddly enough the bits that did show were normal things, and the bits that didn't show are the things that were in the sale.

Of the bits that weren't in the sale that I got was on real bargain! I got Boots Kids Cooling Forehead Strips pack of 4. They are 1.16 a pack! I always begrudge paying alot as I swear my DS (10) fakes headaches just to have one! I tried ones from other cheapie places and I couldn't help but wonder if the smell was safe?! So good old boots - if anyone is after some they are Product code 3300757 and they seem to flutter between limited availability and order as many as you want. I had 7 show up today, as I used them to bump my order to over 50quid for the bonus points. Yes Yes Yes I did one of those order several groups of items to get loads of extra 500pts wys 50quid.

So now I am about to take my first steps out of the house since before Christmas and attempt a local Boots bargain Hunt! Happy shopping girlies!

i get a lot of migraines and i got a great reusable gel pack from my local pharmacist. it comes with a sleeve with elastic attached and adjustable velcro. you can wrap it round your limb or in my case your head!!! it was £4.99 and is sooooooo soothing when you have a bad headache. do you want me to tell you the brand name, if so PM me. maybe your pharmacist could order them in for you -- or boots!!! it's just that i found those disposable ones expensive, and they dont stay cool for long x

I went in a small Boots today and they had loads of stock. Came out with the S&G pucker bag thing. My Mom bought the No7 makeup set thing. (The one that was £70 then £35 in ootw) is now £17.06! Is a right bargain as the SA pointed out that 2 lipsticks cost £20.
I then went to a larger Boots and they were filling the empty shelves back up. I asked if they had any S&G and she said she had no idea as they have just had a huge delivery and she can't even get in to see what is there. So may be worth checking other stores through out the week as deliveries still coming.

I posted this earlier. All stores listed have a lot of stock going in tomorrow or Wednesday.

The Powers That Be on here, say that the 75% will be in store on 14th Jan, and the 90% on the 28th of Jan.

But either they're being very coy about the online date, or nobody, including Mr Boots, knows.

After the complete "mess" by S**erdr*g, who claimed to have a fabulous online sale, on Christmas Eve, that never materialised, and listed certain branches that would have these great bargains on Boxing Day (some were not even open, others had SAs who didn't know what we were on about), I expect they're being very careful.

On the other hand, perhaps they just like reading our desperate requests!!!!

Blimey Sally06 - an "A List Member of Avon"!!!! Almost the same as getting a mention in the New Years Honours List!

Whats this about droitwich spa melsgirl and jazzteddy?

thats where Im from!

nobody ever knows where it is!

wow loads of people are talking about droitwich spa!

its not great, by a long shot,

its tiny, no cinema, or mcdonalds, or topshop or anything good really

it has the smallest boots i have ever been to

this is mad! why would all your orders be coming from there, when i cant get anything in store

bloody typical

xXx

Well speed queen, I checked the online delivery tracking thing and my order said it was being "sorted", at droitwich spa!
I checked another order and yet again...it was at the same place.
It made me laugh, thinking that all the little boots parcels might be pampering themselves at a spa, :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
whilst we are all wondering if we will get them or not.
Obviously I knew they weren't really doing that. Hence my post.

I have no idea where droitwich is, can you enlighten us, please.:)
