    Meadowhall Boots is cleared out, not much left at all..

    Managed to get T&G Mini Bag, Accessorize Colour Compact, Natural Collection LipGloss purse, Kim Make-Up bag for little sister and a No7 Liplicious Colour Collection which i love :D

    A couple of reduced No7 things on a stand next to the counter, i got a firming gradual tan reduced to 4.75 so free with £5 No7/R&M voucher.
    Had a few other self tan products and nail varnishes.

    Also had a fair few of the L'Oreal GWP's which are going through as 0 :D
    The lipgloss in that set is fab.

    As an aside, if anyone has managed to get one of the St. Tropez The Ultimate Golden Body Collection, i would be more than happy to take it off your hands lol.

    HTH

    I would love to go to Meadowhall, just for the L'oreal :rotfl: Did they have many? Might be worth a little day trip :)

    Hi all just to say that when I was in my local Boots early yesterday the No7 SA was price checking no7 stuff and putting hand written stickers on these items. All of them, Im assuming because I never asked, that these can be used with the Blinkie, however, every one of them was over the £5 mark. Stuff that was previously less than £5, therefore free now isnt. HTH

    So was the SA actually increasing the price with her stickers?

    It seems to be different in every store - I couldn't find any reduced No7 in one big store, went to another and they still had loads. Found a nail buffer set and case £4.89 (so free with blinkie) in a third store, not marked down or up, so I assume thats normal price. And in yet another store, I found loads of No7 tinted moisturiser reduced to £2 each. These were in the general clearance section.

    Also, the store I go to mostly (because they have GWPs there) had all the Miko girls collection stuff on clearance at pennies, and all the Glitter Babes sets were reduced even before the 75% sale started. But another big store nearby had neither of these offers on - same stock, full price.

    Ive got my boots order from the sale, but it was processed around 3/4am in the morning, paypal took the money today. So hopefully everyone else will get theirs, I must say really impressed, I didnt even pay for next day delivery, it was meant to be for the 19th.

    By the way what does everyone think of the No7 mineral foundation and blusher?

    I bought both today in separate transactions, at the No7 counter as I was feeling brave :rotfl: and got 2 GWPs (I think they're cute) used 2 of the 250 point vouchers (one scanned and one had to be added on manually :confused: )

    Felt like the first bootsing I'd done in ages, and it wasn't even advanced level bootsing :rotfl:

    Apart from that I bought a couple of 75% off Hackett gifts and some car cufflinks, and some Pantene sachets...wooo exciting :p

    They had about 15 this morning...
    And the sales in the rest of Meadowhall might be worth checking out too :D

    hi Skittifer i love my no7 mineral blusher, i'm really pale and thought the pink looked abit dark but tried it and it's really lovely. I have used it every day since.

    I'm all out of £5 off vouchers but will definatley be buying more when i get my next voucher. The free gift is cute too i'm putting them away for gifts that my daughter can give to her friends for prezzies (13 year olds love all this sort of stuff)

    I'm not sure what the brush sets look like, do you have a pic? I remember them having the Ruby & Millie Make It Up Bag, Ruby & Millie Vanity Case, Ruby & Millie Nail Collection and Ruby & Millie Bright Perfect Eyes. mind you the rate things were going they might all be gone now, but they were restocking some stuff

    Hi,
    Were there any RM brush sets left? Shame about the kyphi set. I love the smell of this stuff. Was given a larger set as a present but have an allergic reaction to the body butter!

    well now i am officially peed off, they have cancelled my 1st order on the 75% off sale, i would check your emails now, as i bet i wont be the only one, and boots.com are not taking any calls at the moment probably because they know the **** is going to hit the fan.
