    Oh yes it does (sorry going to a panto this afternoon :D )

    I ordered some the other day (expecting delivery today), and just tried a virtual reorder and still got the glitch offer showing. :T Try deleting your card from your online account and readding the card number again (I cut and paste it back in).

    Hi everyone, I've been reading your posts for a while but this is my first!

    I used to work for boots and I'm still in loads, I was talking to one of my friends yesterday who told me there were a load of toys reduced to 75% off in store. They hadn't been notified in advance and the staff had only noticed when they were printing out the new sel's to include the new VAT. They noticed during a nightshift so in the morning each staff member was seen leaving with at least 5 big boots bags full of bargain toys! When I looked there was nothing left other than bots ltp diggy dougy at £3.95 and boots ltp enchanted castle at £5. I'd keep an eye open though, if your local stores aren't bothering to redo sel's for sale stock they might have missed these reductions! (I was in Stirling)
    I asked about 75% off sale and they said its next week instore, not sure what day...I got sidetracked!!
    hope that someone catches a bargain before the staff!!!

    I used my magic No7 points voucher when getting 3 x reduced nail varnishes leaving £4 to pay as 342 then used blinkie so nothing to pay! So it worked on reduced for me:confused: ( this was monday though!) Also another combo of reduced stuff which came to £5 used same vouchers and again 500points and nothing to pay

    I think you must be a white witch AM, as the 'magic' vouchers (Thanks Jinx for the name) bleep for me on Reduced items. So I only get 250 when added manually. Can you please send me your spell to get the extra please.;)

    No7 skincare wise I only use the Protect and Perfect serum + day and night creams so not too worried about these being discontinued. However, would appreciate a heads up on which makeup lines are being discontinued and reduced.

    Thanks in advance :)

    Not posted for ages! No7 Hydro Quench Day and Night Sorbets discontinued, priced at £7.95 so £2.95 with Blinky. Got 2 today.

    Thank you sophisticated for the list of free/cheap items theres some great things on there that i didn't know you could get with the blinkies.

    Its my birthday today so hopefully boots will have lots of reduced no7 to get with my blinkies. Also holding out hope for the free GWp that lots of people keep finding. I'll post my findings later.

    Happy Birthday. Hope you find lots of bargains

  • Just been to a little boots and got 3 x lipscreens for 66p on 342 and blinkie. I love this stuff it makes my lips really smooth so well stocked up now.

    the no7 SA said that the Time Resist is going to be reduced and after telling me the virtues of it and me smothering it all over my hand and really loving it - there was none of the old packaging ones left which are the reduced ones:rolleyes: so am now dissapointed!! May try another one later.
  • Does anyone know when they will stop giving out blinkies? I have one in my purse but don't want to 'spend' it till payday but I need another blinky to get the other thing I want too if you see what I mean.

    I just had to ring Boots CS about a problem with my Advantage Card & asked them when the '75% off' online sale was starting. The chappie said they had no knowledge, whatsoever, of a '75% off' online sale - on any date!!!
    Do you think that was just BS - or it might not be going ahead this year? Can't really imagine it's the latter - what do you peeps think?

    There almost surely will be one. I would think that most people in CS don't know if/when it will be, and if they did, they wouldn't tell you. The whole point for Boots (or any store) is to sell things for as much money as possible, and if they told you when the sale would be you sure wouldn't be buying things before then. I wouldn't worry too much about what cs says on this issue.

    Hmm - don't really know but I think they carry on giving them out until the expiry date or whenever they run out at the tills.

    The only thing I will say is not to leave it too long if there is something you are really after - I kept mine and then couldn't get anything I wanted because all the stock had gone with people trying to use them up. Ended up with a few random items which I got just to try as they were really cheap.
