Apparently yes you can, to both points (pardon the pun!) The only thing you can't do is use any Boots vouchers in the Alliance shops yet because the tills haven't been fully changed to "Boots" ones yet but should be within the next few months - this was all according to my favourite, lovely SA this morning

Yippeee!:j I have been a bit naughty though and cancelled my smear to go Bootsing. I think I may be a little bit obsessed.:eek::o

Hopefully if DD back at school tomorrow I'm going to try the new store down Leeds Rd to see for myself what's left from the sale.

I was in Alliance/Boots today and the till allowed 2 blinkies for some No7 gift sets that I wanted to get.

These things are never simple! :eek:

Sorry if this question has been asked before but if I pay for something that costs over £5.00 with a gift card/voucher will I still receive a blinkie? Thanks for your help.

Passed through Boots today - it is pretty much back to being a fairly expensive place to buy boring stuff for me lately! Clearance upstairs is mainly suncare - in old packaging and most of it with missing labels , lids etc
No No7 skincare reduced, nothing left in the sale - in fact I never saw much apart from cat mugs and key rings !
I have blinkies but will probably use them on wipes (yawn) . Nothing else looks worth buying TBH - and I have lots of points to spend !

Off topic - got details of new Estee Lauder GWP at John Lewis from Thursday- very tempting !

Spot on. Just how I feel. By the way, have you seen this from the other Boots sale thread ? It's about the 75% instore sale. http://www.echo-news.co.uk/news/4059083.People_storm_shop_for_items_cut_by_75_/ :eek:. It reminds me of that wedding dress sale in America they always showed on TV every year, with women tearing dresses out of each others hands. (Or am I showing my age ??).

Hello all, Ive just been in my tiny local (half the size of a small chippy) and they have the new No7 gwp. :j Its a pink make up bag with a mirror in the lid and flowers over it and contains mascara, cleansing body polish, p&p hand cream, mens hair/body wash, p&p beauty serum, tinted moisturiser, eye mousse in pewter and either an spf or non spf lipstick. Mines pink lemonade moisture drench and a 250 points voucher that starts on the 28.01.09 for any skincare product from no7/no7 for men.

They only had one sat there (waiting for me to bring it home) and its on an £18 spend, all of the 3 for 2 signs had been taken down but I thought Id chance it so got 1 x amazing eyes eyeliner, 1 x wipes & 1 x eye make up remover. 3 for 2 kicked in plus free gwp and used my blinkie and a 250pts voucher so got it all for £8.70 and a blinkie back.

And got the OH a TS hair duo xmas set for £2.44, they had these a few cat mugs and about 10 john frieda brunette sets. So keep your eyes peeled for the new gwp everyone!
