    after I stayed away from Boots for a few weeks I came back to reading the topic - result = today I went in Boots. But I've been good:
    - found only 4 sachets of Pantene so took a bottle of conditioner - total spent 5.50 - 500 points back and a blinky
    I had a 250 points from the gwp and bought a nail polish - 1.25 and 250 points
    day total 6.75 and 750 points back ---- so like I said I've been good

    I love the colour of my new n7 nail polish: spun sugar !

    What's happened to that MyLittleSisterZola email alert thread? I saved it to my favourites yesterday, just tried to go there and saw this message:

    I am now trembling behind the settee in case I've missed a post saying "For heavens sake, don't go on the Email Alert Thread!"

    Just thought, if they change the next lot of vouchers to purple, we could have Pinkies, Blinkies, then Plinkies!!

    Hi!

    Thought it was just me!!! :o Same thing happened?

    Any ideas? :eek:

    A Blinkie is a voucher which gives you £5 of Ruby & Millie/No 7 items on one half and on the other half is £20 off a few ranges of specs, you need to spend at least £5 to earn it

    Post 2 of this thread explains the abbreviations

    Blinkie is voucher for £5 off No7 or ruby and millie. You get this when you spend £5 in Boots. Ask SA if you dont get one. Split your shopping into £5 sets if you can so you earn more Blinkies. Named by Sandrascarlett.

    I deleted it as muppets kept posting nonsense and filling up everyones mailboxes, sorry everyone it was worth a try.

    If anyone has any other ideas as to how we can all get some sleep they would be very welcome

    A friend told me they were told by Customer Services that the 75% off online started today, it didn't start last night so could it be tonight ? We seem to have so many different dates I'm beginning to lose interest think Mr B is having a laugh at our expense

    Night Night everyone I'm cream crackered
    Busy mum of 3, so if my posts don't make sense or ask a silly question be patient:rotfl:
  • I think you're getting very good at this !!!!b2ab001909a8a6f04b51920306046ce5.gif

    yeah, definitely are light years ahead of me! :j
  • They must be having a re-brand on the No 7 stuff as they had loads of different products (skin care and cosmetics) reduced on a stand in the Newcastle store.

    I got some No 7 'high lights' illuminating lotion which was reduced from £10.52 to £5.26 so i got 2 bottles and used the 2 blinkys i had in my purse.... making them 26p each!! :j

    Yep - the highlights lotion has been replaced by the two new ones in the squeezy tube which has a brush on in colours peach and pink. Thanks for letting us know it is half price, I have one spare in my drawer but will look out for another as the glass bottle one is so much better value as it is a lot bigger and I don't like the brush applicator anyway!!

    I think they have changed a lot of the formula as it says 'new formula' (sorry to state the obvious - it is very small!) on the new boxes although the packaging is very similar - noticed a slight change in ingredients, one of the creams has lost its parabens as an ingredient. I have always been actively encouraged by the sa's to use the offers and the blinkies too so maybe mr b is not so daft - we are all buying up his old stock ready for the nice new stuff coming out:p
