Also I bought tissues, toothpaste and some muscle gel(?) for my son and it came to about £10 and didn't get a points voucher. Should I have been given one? Is it only when you buy certain items? I also used my first blinkie which I found on my son's bedroom floor so got a night moisturiser which was reduced to £8.20 for £3.20. Because I used a Blinkie is this why I didn't get given another one?

Points voucher? think they are only giving out blinkies at the moment, no points vouchers- though you can visit the kiosk machines and often print out a voucher why will give you something like 250 points if you spend £25 or something. It changes from time to time though.

Its worth visitng the kiosk machines first as this is where you can get extra points- the majority of my (£137) points were from extra points, and booster points days like before Christmas (plus has taken me years to save for that amount!)

Am awaiting a GHD straightener, but don't want to order it only to find the newer version comes along soon after...so I am waiting until they bring out GHD V (currently its GHD IV) The GHD site told me they had no plans for a newer version, yeah right, I believe you! I am holding out on that one!

thanks clo, I have found some online for £3.71, says they are included in 342 on vitamins...is this in store too? Also, when you buy boots para & codenine...its only £0.97ish right?

TIA

Had tons of vits on 3 for 2 in my local, no signs but took a chance and grabbed 3 and they went through. I think they do not do the signs in my local as it is 'selected' and gets people confused as they always leave the signs off!

Yep 97p

I thought they often gave out points vouchers but as I say I'm a complete novice at this. All my points collected so far have been from online purchases. I never usually take my card with me because I can't stand having a purse full of plastic but I can see that's going to have to change!

Thanks for your help ladies :beer: .

Liverpool Speke Retail Park

Just been to Speke as I needed to get some stuff from GAP for the twins next door in their sale (some nice kids stuff and good prices)

The sale stuff now consists of some wrapping paper (and even that seems to have taken a big hit) some bows some pig key rings and those dog bookends that nobody wants . We have now cleaned them out of the last of their chocolate coins - it was worth it for 5 minutes peace.

The shelves that the sales stuff was on is now filling up with sun tan cream (some hope)

There are still some bits of No 7 reduced creams, that are either just below or just above the blinkie threshold and some self tan stuff that has turned up from somewhere in a stand by itself marked last chance to buy.They have also got more of the new blusher and are re stocked with the GWP so that was another blinkie used up

The place was empty and there is still a good stock of half price perfume sitting there looking for a home. Nothing I would rush back for mainly celeb stuff.

Managed to use up my points voucher though, though as usual it had to be put through by the SA as it bleeped .

The S and G voucher still wont go through, and the SA gave up in the end and put that through after reading it very carefully and not being able to think of any reason why it should not work .

Anyone any news on the .com sale ? . My basket sits there still stocked with some of the bits i wanted a bit dusty and lonely I would love to give it a home were it will be loved and cared for

And a question from my sister who did get a small order through and got the No7 big set of creams that was better than half price and then 3 for 2 did that go to 75% off or did it stay at £25 ? Thanks

I paid £25 for the No 7 creams...it's waiting at Droitwich spa.

What i got was the No7 moisture glove. That is all it is, nothing with it ie no lotion or anything. They were 5.87 so 87p after blinkie. I am using them with some lotion called "true blue spa" "look ma, new hands". I don't know if it is the gloves or the lotion, but i slept with them on last night, and VOILA! my hands look and i mean actually LOOK younger.

I will have a look tomorrow at work (I have a small boots near my office) and then on Tue I will have a look at a larger one. Will see what I can find for you.. If that was what you were after.

Thank you Ihrgirl , that is really kind of you but someone else has offered to send one now, but thanks for thinking of me and taking the time to respond and congratulations on those beautiful young looking hands:T

£11.25

£8.50



From Wed 28 Jan, blinkies finish 1st feb

Hmmmmph!

Prepare yourselves ladies...











Don't like the look of that eyeshadow quartet...it looks like something from the late 1980s/early 1990s and not in a good way Surprised by the foam applicator too, that lets the look down further for me

Is the second item a gloss or blusher?

Still, this might mean I save some money by not buying it

(Mr BTVB has just muttered "until you change your mind" under his breath...)

It was down as being in the sale but they still dont have any stock of it so not sure what price it would go in at.

In store it was £14.73ish

I dont have any news on .com, not heard anything back from Andrea yet.

I paid £25.

Must admit BTVB I shall not be buying these either.

:hello: buffy

Well...if you do not 'need' it, it must be bad :rotfl:
I'm not into 'spring' colours as only do very bold or classic, but am hating colours and packaging on this!

Second is lip tint xxx

Hi all, Ive been to three stores and can never find these pantene satchets that you're all finding, I also never find any no7 reduced stuff, all I find is the normal pantene shampoos and the aussie satchets... am I not looking in the right places? Im new at this bootsing and not doing very well at all, also Ive got my first three blinkies now but no idea what to use them on
