    Totally off topic but here goes...


    I bought a lancome foundation I love, and I'm nearly out, but I threw the box, and now can't tell what the exact shade was!!! Is there anyway to tell?! Don't want to risk just asking the SA as she might suggest the wrong one?
    Is there anything on the bottle that should tell me? Its the photogenic luminessence one?

    Sorry, i know its daft but its so annoying :o

    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.

    No, you have to actually pay Boots a fiver, before you can get a blinkie. Vouchers and gift cards don't count, as far as I know.

    Edit - but having seen KarenBB's reply, maybe I'm wrong?

    Could someone please tell me if I received the correct amount of points today - I think I may have been done out of a few!

    Bought: 1 x Mineral Foundation £13.70
    1 x Pouch GWP Free
    1 x Pantene sachet £0.97 (should have had 100points??)
    1 x Clairol Herbal Ess shampoo £1.76 (should have had 100 points??)
    1 x Clairol Herbal Ess Condit £1.76 (should have had 100 points??)
    Redeemed blinkie - minus £5
    Added 375 points coupon from Christmas OOTW

    Total to pay: £13.19, Total points: 550

    Have I counted things that aren't eligible for extra points?
    By the way, the till gave me a survey code with prize draw to win £1000. SA said to be sure to enter as the till doesn't spit them out very often! Does anyone have any useful information about these surveys? Thanks

    I've always been given blinkie when I've paid with gift card. In fact I got one today.

    buyitall the 375 points applies to republic of ireland only, its 250 points here so looks like 550 was right. HTHs

    Giftcards and gift vouchers actually count as cash I think, so yes you get a blinkie :)

    Thanks, had 2 in my purse, one said 250 and the other 375, it must have been facing the other way around!! Didn't get another blinkie though, and forgot to ask about them in my excitement about the survey invitation!
