    DR is still on BOGOF and in Llandudno store they are all reduced to 1/2 price. I managed to use 7 coupons and spent £7.50 over 14 items!!! Also got 2 Aromatherapy body oil spays @ £1.24 so cost 24p and a body spray for free (although I thought this was a room freshener spray). Hello to the other Moneysaver who I met in the store today, who are you? Sorry I forgot to ask your name. Really surprised to get away with so many items,I went in thinking I would use a couple and save the rest until next week but all the SA were really pleasant, although I didn't use the main desks.
    Look after the pennies and the £££s will look after themselves

    What is this - is is part of the old Chrimbo range or something new, I still have 3 No 7 vouchers to use up!

    Thanks in advance! ;)

    It's new. It's the latest organiser type kit with eyeshadows and blushers. It also has a mascara and a lipstick and it's in a beige patterned faux suede cover. At £9.99 it's a bargain considering the individual prices of the items (last week it was £15). I know you can't use the £5 voucher because I tried last week. I was hoping to use the 300 points but the SA read it and as it wasn't skincare she wouldn't even try it. It's not part of the 3 4 2 either.
  • Went to Boots Broadmead Bristol but not much in the ways of bargains.

    Bought a No7 Daily Fluid for £8 with my last £5 No7 voucher but used the 300 point voucher so still got for free. Got a Awaking pamper me gift set for £2 which has three products in was £3 but got a £1 off with voucher. No TD below £5 but did buy another bodt lotion as do like it.
    Picked up a Mama's and Papa's frame for £2 reduced from £10.
    Did actually use my points today as the new range of Mini Mode clothing was in and plus picked up some bits from the sale. Had one bit of luck when redeeming as bought a stripy green top which deducted the points and then added back on 175 points to my card so cost 40p!! My daughter now has plenty of 6-9 month clothes.
    No new offers on AC machine to report.

    Have i spotted my first boots.com special offer/misprice?!?!?

    http://www.boots.com/shop/product_details.jsp?productid=1016094&classificationid=1040831&slmRefer=000

    BOGOF on natural collection body lotion at 31p a bottle, therefore 15p each?! do boots.com *do* misprices? would they honour such an offer?

    Just about to buy 6 of these when I notced the £3.50 delivery charge, rather negates the saving! :rotfl:

    I bought some of these when they had them half-price in October. Printed off some photos and put them in the albums for Christmas presents for older relatives. They were really pleased. Good value.

    Yeah, that's kind of what i am doing with one of mine, only with photos from Butlins weekenders for my best friend's birthday :)
    At least this way she'll be able to see what she gets up to, even if she can't remember :D

    What a morning! My mum came round and I gave her a few TD items and an aromatherapy candle. I then suggested we go to a Boots in south London and try to get a few more items. When we arrived no TD under £8 :( . Went to N07 counter and found the SA there really helpful. My Mum wanted to replace her old N07 lippy and spend her N07 voucher. With SA ‘s help we found one that she liked. Going round found no EA stuff we wanted and then....... saw they still had loads of bergamot candles (6). Well that was it….. sent my mum off to “pay” for a few of them with £1 vouchers, while I checked out the points machine. Printed out the 300points on a NO7 skincare and a few others, then grabbed my candles and some boots baby wipes and went to pay at the Photo till. When asked for Boots card nearly had a heart attack. NO BOOTS CARD. Went to check machine, nothing. Then remembered that the same thing had happened to someone else on MSE and they had asked the SA to open the machine and get it back. So that’s what I did. Such a relief when SA gave me back my card….. it has nearly £40 on it!!!! After I had paid for my baby wipes and my candles (will never forget the guy’s face when they went thru for free!) BTW the one voucher working on more than one item did not work here, or they refused to do it, thinking I did not have enough destress vouchers in my purse…they didn’t realise that I had gone prepared. Anyway, to calm myself down after all this fiasco went back to NO7 to spend my £5 NO7 voucher. The nice SA answered my questions on combining different NO7 vouchers that I asked on here the other day, but nobody seemed to know the answer to. Got my answer and 300 points added to my card as well. So even though I spent £1.50 a the No7 counter they gave me back 300points! Oh and they had given me 246 points on my card and 300points haircair voucher before on the photo till for buying amongst other things films for my Mum.

    Has any one got the "microdermabrasion kit" ? I got that plus 2 eye brighteners yesterday from the Boots in Glasgow,oh also got one DR hands giftset thingy,even though it was on the bogof,there was only one left,so i got the next cheapest,which was the rescue balm(Stinks! :p ).
    Anyway the microdermabrsion kit is Fantastic,that was the first time i saw it,it is £9.99,so with £5 off,£4.99,so if anyone sees it,just get it.I asked about the One per customer and the girl was very nice,she said,"no,no such thing"She also said that Boots always never give them enough stock to go with the vouchers,and once the promotion ends,they send them loads?!!They are also shrinking the skincare bit in most of the Boots,i think she said they are gonna make them in to counters.
    Sorry for blabbing on.(ps,plenty of change one thing beauty booklets at the fort,and at Sauchiehall st.)

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Name Dropper I've been Money Tipped!
    I found some TD handcream in with the handcream :rotfl: being sneaky.

    So I got one as the stuff is soooooo nice and bought some chewing gum cost to me a total of 33p.

    Anway said to my mum do you want some. OK gave her the voucher stood outside she showed me the item thumbs up from me. Went to another till and came got smiling.

    I was rather gobsmacked as I thought she would never do it. Then she tried palming the stuff on me. No, I don't want it I already have one opened and this one now. She was rather like Boots have just us given £10 worth of stuff for free. I just went :D . LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Little does she know she has wipes, handcream and exfilator wash stuff for mothers day.

    No EA stuff though.

    Yours
