Quick note for Cambridge bargain hunters: central Cam store DR stuff is 2for1 but no display signs. There were quite a few handcare sets today and plenty of yellow leaflets. Other bargains: Xmas sweets gifts £1 incl lovely 'florentine' chocolates with metal xmas tree ornament. Staff always pleasant in my experience - just baffled by till total sometimes!

My bargain of the day at boots was from the boots pure moisture range.

Bottles of moisturising body wash 300ml size reduced to 50p each, so picked up 2. At the till they then scanned as BOGOF. So I rushed back and picked up 2 more. So 4 bottles for £1. Worth looking out for.

Also lots of EA minatures reduced to 42p - EA £1 voucher would not work with them, but at 42p I was happy to pay.

Any chance of splitting this thread up?
One for Buys one for Discussion?
It gets way out of hand searching back so many threads.
And the Abbreviations? You have to search so way back to understand!

You seem very happy freeby-junkie.
I wasn't earlier when I went to Boots in Worcester looking for bargains. I was ready to have a go at getting the free exercise ball with 2 vouchers. The SA would not allow it, I managed however to get a reduced Nivea sun cream @ £3.40 and a body sofflee for 49p when she run the price after the voucher discount the total was £8.89. I ask if I could use one of the AC ovucher 75 points for £10 and again she did not agree, so I paid and started to move when I saw her selling a discounted item to one of her colleages and with a smug face saying you can't have it we haven't got anymore :mad:

So I left for M&S where I bought a bra for £1 thanks to another thread, while in M&S I was getting a little upset about the Boots lady so I went back, got a Max Factor lipstick reduced to £3 (I want to use it to claim my cinema tickets)... and went back to the women to ask for my 75 points. She said, no you can't have them because it must be from one transaction... so I said OK, have everything back and start over again. By them she was getting cross saying that she has been working since 8 oclock and was going to miss her bus... Well was that my problem... no. In the end I got my points, my discount and also a £3 hair voucher... To top it all one of my collegues at work bought the ball from me. I could start all over again I think.

Sorry this :money: was very long :rolleyes:

DR is still on BOGOF but to be honest i'm not very keen on the range...

Has anyone else had any other products from this range which they've enjoyed?

I tried the Three Roses Face Mask the other day and although it smelt simply divine, it also stung like hell!

The Peony Eye Gel (on first use) also left the skin around my eyes feeling quite taut and sticky to the touch.

But when Boots are virtually giving them away, it's worth a bit of experimental pampering!
