    Hi

    I bought a St Tropez set for my daughter and it says on the back that it contains 4g of shimmer powder but when she opened it there is a shimmer puff but no powder.

    Has anyone else bought one and found the same please?

    That was possibly me introducing myself to madsaver when I heard her mentioning blinkie to her friend.

    Hi Dollywops :hello:Nice to meet you today.
    There's a skinny woman inside me screaming to be let out. A cookie soon shuts her up!!! :rotfl:
  • Since being advised at 1500hrs to try later I decided to go to York Monks CRoss - absolutely nothing other than the 5 miniature fragrance scents of occasion sets (I got 6 to split for wedding favours for female guests) and some small toy items

    I also had these in my web order - I have just returned home to find my order status is 'dispatched' but I have had no email etc

    Any ideas if it will be coming?

    And also, can I return some of these fragrance sets as I'll be awash with 'em if the order comes!!!!

    Well I went to Watford today (was there at 9am) filled my bags and met another Bootser from here!
    Anyway went to the til and told the SA that I wanted to put it through in a couple of smaller amounts to get the bilinkies. Anyway the SA told me I needed to keep them to just over £5 to get the best out of it (as if I didn't know that :p). Then he decided to speak to his superviser and cleared it with her that I could pay in one go and they would just give me a voucher for each £5 I spent :T. So I came away with 22!:eek:. I then tried to buy 3 no7 gift sets in the sale hoping they would go through as 342 but they didn't so I said I would just buy them separately and use my vouchers but I couldn't use them on gift sets :mad:. Oh well I'll just have to traipse around all the stores looking for reduced no7 stuff that isn't a gift set.

    Hiya

    I wonder if you were served by the same nice young man as me. Having experienced problems with my credit card on the 1st transaction, he put all my stuff through together and then gave me 6 blinkies.

    By the way, the R&M small vanity case is great for £8.75 (absolute rip-off for £35). DD loves it, but they aren't for her. I have just ordered 4 more from the website, 2 to the office and 2 to store. I am going to get them refunded at full price and then buy them back at the sale price, assuming they get delivered.

    The powder is in the puff! Puff it on your arm a bit and you will see glittery powder coming out.

    Trafford Centre was a mad free for all but got a few bits, still some decent stock left in Chester and a few bits in Cheshire Oaks.

    Hope everyone had a good day :)

    Hey everyone!

    Cant believe how many pages there are now - I havent read them all so I dont know if anyone has talked about the bluewater store.

    I got into the boots store at 10.20am and I have never seen anything like it! It was totally manic! Women with trolleys full of stuff - insane!

    I managed to get everything I wanted except P+P gift set but knew there was not gonna be any at bluewater, may try hunt one out tomorrow

    Spent twenty quid and saved 60 so I am well chuffed, even managed to get a S+G Glove Story set :j

    Bluewater as of 1pm today still had lots of stock and was still getting more in, though I think the stock is becoming more generic!

    Hope everyone else had a good day with their buys!

    Gosh, there must have been some mse-ers in the Ramsgate Boots this morning, that was a serious scrum :D . Was much fun with my big buggy and protesting baby :rolleyes: .

    Still managed to get out of there quite quickly with a nice little haul, all paid for with 50 quids worth of points. Still have 600 points left on the offchance there's anything left for the 90% sale.

    Does anyone know if the No.7 Weekend bag down from £50 to £12 ish has a points voucher in it? Don't want to rifle it if not!

    I was in ramsgate store at 9am, it was so busy. My friend works in there and her and the rest of the staff were wondering how everyone knew about the 75% off lol.
    I went back in this afternoon and the shelves were empty, still i managed to get everything i wanted.
