    went to boots at riverside retail park in nottingham yesturday but they didnt have any clearance items just half price xmas gifts

    I was there on Tuesday, at the no7 counter, on the wall, they had quite a bit of reduced No7 skincare (just behind the podium with the tissues on it). On the podium itself they had some reduced nail colours, and it looked like they were putting reduced price stickers on another basket load of similar stuff.

    got some fantastic bargains in the metro centre today.....they had loads of no 7 gift sets with the magic pointers in so i grabbed some just in case they dissapear next week !! then used the pointers and the blinkies i earned to buy masses of reduced no 7 stuff all 342 as well...mini brushes, manicure sets, gloves, nail files,skin car, shimmer pallates, eye liners ..etc etc..far too much to list....I went round and round and had to keep going back to the car but i have just worked it out i spent £88 real cash...got £73 back in points and now have over £400 woth of stuff if I had bought it at full price...thats all birthdays sorted for the year and most of next years girlie xmas pressies bought.
    Oh and something to look out for, not sure if its been mentioned already but herbal esscences has 100 points on as well and i got 7 bottles of conditioner reduced to 44p each....so 700 points for just over £3...made up to £5 of course to get another blinkie with pantene sachets...only 6 left on the shelf though.Worth looking out for the reduced stuff might be in other stores

    For those of you who have an AC and so does your significant other - when you get mailings can you use the other persons vouchers with your card, im asking as some of the vouchers have your name on and others dont.

    Was wondering if it was worth DF getting a card to see if he gets any different coupons to me, but i would only want the points on one card - MINE!!!

    I tried this and got my partner at the time an AC to see what vouchers and offers he got, but we used them on my card. But it didnt work out for long as the ad card people knew his card hadnt been used and they stopped sending him vouchers and mailings.

    Wow, way to go :T. Where is this treasure trove metro centre????:D
    You laugh because I'm different......I laugh cause I just farted!

    Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. (A.C)

    the no 7 stuff was on the counter, the nail kits and gloves etc were where they usually are hanging up, and the reduced herbal esscenses was just on the shelf as usual...tons of half price gift sets left!!

  • Do you think maybe things keep getting removed from our baskets as some people are entering the 99 amount for their orders?

    It's just pot luck, and the same for the rest of us. Just read it when you can, some bargains you will catch and some you will miss.

    Some of them have to be explained a lot, and not everyone likes that. But the more you put into this thread the more you tend to get out.

    Sometimes explaining how to get a particular item for x'££ is often like doing quadratic equations:eek:

    This thread is rather like life, at times quite straighforward, but other times very complicated.

    You are so right Polls, you do need to get used to the thread and with time you are able to pick up on glitches/ offers and bargains, much more quickly, but it does take time. I know I sometimes spend ages reading all the posts, but it is worth it as you find some amazing deals at times. Plus there are so many helpful people on the boots thread too.:)

    Haven't seen this posted, so here goes:

    Overheard a No7 SA telling a customer that the No 7, 3 4 2 ends on 27th January.

    The TV advertisment also says that it ends on the 27th January. I wonder if they will put the No7 Body Serum back to half price again then:confused:
