    Had some good shops today but couldn't find any reduced No7 in Brum High Street or Walsall nor any Olay GWP

    Shop 1
    No17 mascara - £4.69
    No17 bronzing shimmer dust - £4.39 but BOGOF on No17
    No7 Men's H and B wash - £6.36

    Uesd Blinkie, 250 points on No7 men from GWP and 100 points when buying No17 mascara from the ACM

    Handed over points coupons first and SA asked if I had a £5 voucher - I handed it over but asked her to scan the coupons forst and she said it wouldn't make any difference - and it didn't!

    Paid £6.05 (from Gift card for £10 that BIL sent me for my birthday)
    Received blinkie and 350 points
    saved £9.39

    Shop 2
    UG Makeover spray £4.88
    UG Blow dry spray £4.69

    on 2 for £6

    found Ruby and Millie lipliners reduced to £2.33 each so got 2 of those (there were no signs for 750 points when you buy 2 ruby and millie and nothing came up on the receipt) (normally about £10 each?)

    Pantene hair mask sachet - no signs about 100 points so wanted to check it worked - 97p (whoever was asking earlier - this was in High Street - there were quite a few on the very bottom shelf)

    Take a break magazine - 78p

    Used blinkie - giving me the 2 R and M lipliners free - it deducted £4.66
    250 points on R and M (from Red Gift case) - meaning they paid me 250 points to take 2 lipliners away! How good would it have been if I had got the 750 as well! I didn't think I'd push it and ask. This would not scan but SA said no reason why not and put it in manually
    150 points from ACM on UG
    100 points on Pantene automatically

    Thus spent £7.75 (used up the remaining £3.95 on gift card)
    512 points
    gained blinkie
    said saved £8.23 but actually knowing the price of R and M more like £24

    Then found a Clinique Happy set on the counter without a price - nice SA checked it for me and was excited for me when it came up as 1174 points reduced from 1762. Used points for that - 15 ml Happy spray, cute little silver wallet/case for mobile or ipod with a mini Happy rollerball and mini lipgloss attachment. Very nice!

    Then off to Walsall

    Still no Olay GWP or reduced No7

    Got
    Shop 3
    Imperial Leather muscle relax bath stuff for hubby - half price - 73p
    (all these were half price including some nice girly ones like the Japanese spa one - so if you like these keep an eye out)
    No7 protect and Perfect Lipcare - I need this with the recent cold weather - £8.56

    Pantene Sachet 97p

    Used blinkie, 250 points on No7 from gold GWP, 100 automatic on Pantene

    Paid £5.26, got 350 points, saved £5.73

    So spent in total £19.06 - £10 of which was a gift card
    Got 1212 points
    and I still have a blinkie and 250 points left to use

    Am I getting good at this? Am I? :j

    can i ask how often you all use the no7 toner and cleanser? once a day or twice?

    I use my cleanser every morning but as a face wash rather than using it with cotton wool. A blob in my hand - wet it with water and wash that way. This is how the No7 lady suggested i used it as my skin was rather sensitive at the time.

    I use a facial wash in the shower in the mornings and then the *full* routine in the evenings (mainly to remove my war-paint!): eye-make-up remover, cleanser, (I don't use toner though, it makes my face sore), serum, night cream and eye cream. Yes, it takes almost as long to take it all off as it does to put it all on :rolleyes:

    Hi :)

    Nice to see another Coventry Bootser :wave:

    I don't suppose you noticed if they had the Protect & Perfect set in the sale did you? :)

    I did a shop the other day & wasn't given a Blinkie so the next day I asked at another Boots, showed them my receipt & they gave me one no problem! I would ring CS & tell them, they will probably credit you with 500 points!
    Good Luck

    My S&G GWP's have arrived today I reckon, but I wasn't in so have a card left.
    They have been delivered to a neighbour (trustworthy) but she can talk for 20 hours at a time non stop, and if I go over there i'll never get home :-)
    She knocked on the door the other week after midnight to see if I had seen someone throw a pot noodle over her fecne, cos her dog had eaten it.
    Ermm, nope, sorry, I Was ASLEEP!
    lol
