Hi, I am off skiing and still have 10 vouchers (Save £5 on Time Delay or Daniele Ryman, if anyone wants them PM your address and I will post them today.

That if anyone can find a Boots that still puts the cheaper items on the shelf instead of hiding them in the store room!

Don't forget that the airports have Boots - I found a plumper at Gatwick last week!

I have quite a few £5 off TD/DR vouchers I will post off to anyone who may like some? There is nothing left in Ipswich that is cheap, so I have no use for them they still had masses of leaflets yesterday so I poicked up a few for fellow MSE'rs!

The little Boots near me removed all TD stuff, as apparently they are remerchandising! Luckily the lovely lady who was doing the remerchandising fished around in her blue boxes and pulled out some TD stuff - must be 'cos I told her about the offer last week and showed her the leaflets, or perhaps she's just a very nice lady!

Boots in Weston High Street has hidden all the DR stuff, and when a friend went in with some vouchers I'd given her they said that they no longer sold TD, well they most certainly did when I went in later. Me thinks that they don't want us to take it away for free! Strangely have been able to find leaflets though!

Another Boots I went into last week had all the DR stuff in those boxes that Tesco use as security things on CD's - who's likely to steal it when Boots are almost giving it away!

Boots in Cribbs, Bristol have lots of leaflets, but nothing under £5.00 in TD, though they did have lots of DR handsets for £8.49. Despite an earlier poster being followed around here, I got lots of help from the staff. The lady at the till even checked that all my vouchers had been taken off my receipt and that all my points had been added - even those AC vouchers that I'd sneakily handed over for stuff not purchased! Was convinced she'd take them off, and I was getting ready with my excuses of handing them all over by mistake, but she just added everything on!

My only problem came on Sunday, we went to London and drove past loads of Boots stores, but would dh stop - would he heck! Oh, the missed bargains!

Yipee...I told my husband that I do get exercise....so lets shop till we drop (a dress size) I lost 4.5 lbs this week and my om said "well done" I thought he should have swung me around the room but on second thoughts I might need to do more shopping so that he'd be able to.

If he'd bought as much Toni and Guy 1 litre shampoos and conditioners as me he'd have biceps like Arnie! Have enough to last me and 3 dd's rest of the year!

Now I have lots of hair stuff thanks to the earlier T&G £7 offer, lots of face stuff thanks to TD and DR vouchers, all I need is the body fixed! Let's hope that Boots make a blooper on body lotions and potions next!

They had one DR miniture handset in Boots today for £8.49 and still BOGOF but when I smelt it I didn't like any of it at all! Is it just me or does anyone else not like the smell :(

Hi Lara, I agree the handcream smells like emulsion paint but it does a good job on your hands though and the smell fades.

Boots have reduced all the reindeer buckets that were originally £5 over Christmas to 50p each. They have marshmellows inside and were originally for children. Thought they were good for the price.

They seemed to have reduced everything that had sweets/food in it for kids to low prices to get rid of it.

We hit Liverpool Airport last week. Bonus was they have two and the staff couldn't help us enough.

Yes I spotted them at Edinburgh Straiton this morning...also these were reduced to a £1 from £5.50.
