Thanks very much I really ought to put a new one on, in fact I will have a look now. Could do with trying to get a nice one of DS and DD together but they are a pair of fidgets!

Off to have a wander around Mr B now, is the multi pack of creme eggs still working with the meal deal? Not as though I will be eating them I am on a strict diet :rolleyes:

Hoping to find some decent No7 clearance today, see you later :cool:

Hi all
Regarding the boots sale: - I have just spoke to cs about an order I placed on thurs it went through at full price. They said it wouldnt be honoured at 75% & wouldnt give the 75% back in points nor 342! The sale had been taken off because the site couldnt cope & will not be going back on, nor at 50% or 342. Also asked what is going to happen with the stock and they said it will continue to sell at full price and will eventually go. So doesnt even look like its going to be shipped to stores either. Bet Mr B wished he never changed his computer now! Roll on the glitches xx

Another question for you Bootsing experts:

The 250 points on No7 voucher that came with the last men's gwp (barcode ending 2547) -- has anyone been able to use that without beeps? I mean on anything, not just clearance items? And if so, was it a men's product or not?

The voucher says in smaller print that it's for *any* no7 item, but in big print it says "No7 for Men". I tried to use it and the SA said it had to be men's stuff, which clearly it didn't based on what the small print said, but I was working a glitch and didn't want to argue anything that might draw attention, lol.

Worked on men's no7 for me - combined with the other 250 pts that came out of the lady gifts and a blinkie to get a facewash for £1.xx at a manned till.
No problemo!

Had tried it with the minerals foundation elsewhere and beeped - SA wouldn't see past the word "men's" on the front and I didn't want to make a big deal out of it as I already had a "free" Olay GWP in my basket and saved it for another day.

Does anyone know if you can use extra points vouchers on SS tills without SA assistance? I have a trevor sorbie one that someone said works with minis -- but an SA might simply refuse to use it, so I thought I'd use an SS till.

Yes you can do this - when you've finished putting your items through, press 'finish and pay' and then press the 'coupon' bit that will be on screen. When you've finished with your coupons press 'finish and pay' again and that's it! I used the TS mailing voucher with a mini on the ss tills no probs

For Bootsers trying find and buy St Tropez sets
Hi, there were a couple of Bootsers asking where they can buy sale St Tropez sets, sorry I can't find all the exact names as threads are soo long.

Boots Sedley Place (large store) on way to Bond St tube station, Central London
There are 5/6 (as of around 7pm yesterday on the top floor) So if anyone is trying to get hold of these, it might be worth trying to phone the store and checking if still there.
