You now only have to purchase one Gillette item to get the 'Putting Set'. The cheapest is around £1.50 (shave gel/foam)which although does not say is on offer is about half the price of Asda at present

Sory if this has been mentioned already as I am only now catching up and still have about 6 pages to go but I think these go through without a purchase, not that I'm advocating that and with Gillette stuff so cheap at the moment (I think the cheapest is the small mach gel or the large foam both of which I have nought for 39p) I would at least get one product to accompany this "freebie". HTH

EDIT: have caught up now and have seen that people know this already so apologies for repeating.

There is a free booklet called "Love Notes" that I saw near the Boots mags and also laying on counters near cosmetics/perfume (red and pink cover). I just picked it up -- it's free with or without a Boots card. On the inside of the back cover is a voucher for £5 of points when you buy any product from the Girard Range. It doesn't say what that is, but everything advertised in the booklet is perfume. Edit: Just looked online, and Girard is Boots-brand perfume. Some of them come with a free bag with purchase; perhaps this is in-store too and you could get the points and bag. Not really cheap, though, starting at 24.xx for the ones that come with a bag, and 17.xx for the ones that don't.

I also thought it funny/cheeky that the little plastic pink Natural Collection bags we all got free with an NC purchase over the summer, and that some stores later reduced to £1, are now sitting with the Valentine's gifts display marked at £4.88! :eek:

I saw an SA with this voucher the other dy and nearly asked her where she got it from but then assumed it was a staff thing si thank you so much for that. She bought a set although I didn't see which one and only paid about 6 pounds odd for it so to you and I the non staff discounted person, it probably cot about £8 which someone else has mentioned so certainly with looking out for. Reckon it is the £17 odd ones down to half price so no bag but a real bargain nonetheless.

I've not actually tried the lip tint yet - seems a shame to spoil the look of it lol.

However, I have recently bought one of the No7 Sheer Temptation range, 'Entice', and that goes on very sheer, very much like a lip gloss but without the stickiness, if that's what you're after

That does help, thanks - I'll take a look at those tomorrow (like the look of the pink one on the website).

No £5 P & P for me today, it was still showing on Wednesday on my offers and I printed one off. I think they have definately pulled that offer until the blinkies have expired!!

I bought 2 reduced Gillette items today with points for 272 and got the putting set. The set is really nice!! some one on ebay has 10 to sell!!!!! I think reading through the posts i could have got another putting set, never mind!!!

No Model Me or reduced Charles Worthington at Cribbs Bristol tonight. A load of expensive tat on the tiny clearance shelf also, all overpriced!!!

I saw this too..they're charging over a fiver and another £3 odd for postage so they're making a nice tidy profit from that one!

Going to try to type this quickly as typed a MASSIVE post out earlier and lost it all. *cry*
Slough today had lots of reduced sels and lots of empty spaces too. Including the L'Oreal mens sets. *cry again* Quite a few haircare bits reduced though so plenty to spend your haircare vouchers on. They also had lots of old 17 gwps for £1, I nearly missed them as they arent on clearance but an end shelf by the make up. They had the anniversary one, jonathan saunders pallette, bronzing palette, lip pallette, eye pallette, bronzer with brush, awakening skin blusher that was £1.50 though, sels for the clutch bag but oos, think thats it. I got one of each except the anniversary one as ive got a couple of those. Also got my sister who was with me the bronzing pallette and grabbed a spare as im sure MrsBTVB spotted it on boots.com a while ago and wanted it? Will pm her, if not will just put it in a gift basket. Slough also had greasy roots He conditioner for 73p, I resisted as i couldnt really afford it.
Wilkinsons had lots of Charles Worthington stuff for £1.99 so if you're going to buy non reduced items it is cheaper in Wilkinsons than the price in Boots after the haircare voucher! HTH someone.
I used my last blinkies and 2 haircare vouchers, wish id had more haircare vouchers, could've got lots! Really pleased with my haul even though i forgot to use 2 No 7 vouchers that would've got me 450 points. :rolleyes:
2 X No 7 nail file sets Free
1 x No 7 sponges Free
2 x P&P Handcream Free
John frieda hair mask and Charles Worthington heat spray 44p altogether
Model me shampoo and conditioner 44p altogether
No 7 nail varnish £1.10 plus 250 points
7 x 17 GWPS £7 Paid with points. (only got £3 now.:eek: )
I had two really lovely sas today, really made my day. :T
Last but not least I met the lovely bootser Need a Break today. Thanks for swapping with me.

Not sure if this is an old No7 Beauty Bag or a new one, but when the shelves on the No7 counters were getting a bit low in York (because most peeps had grabbed the reduced accessories like gloves, sponges, nail files and buffers etc, and who can blame them when they went to the £1 ish mark? ) these bags appeared in their place:



Please click for bigger picture

There was also a smaller bag which was a similar colour to the bathing range and very pretty it was too.

I suspect these might be kept below the displays, and out of reach in some stores, but for £10 less VAT less the £5 blinkie, they seemed a good buy for just under a fiver.

Excuse the very poor quality of the pic, the bag is much nicer in the flesh so to speak and is also improved when the sleeve is on. (Had to remove it as it seemed to create a glare when photographed.) A few pence added to any purchase of these would get you the new winkie/winkle/twinkle thing

hths with any remaining blinkie/s you might have - if you can spot the bags that is

Night peeps. Have a great day x

Whilst in Chatham today, I noticed all the GWP I looked at had the code number 29294 488, which seems to be the code on bags containing lipsticks in one of the following shades:
Golden Rose(15)
Raisin Shimmer (95)
Pink Icing(45)
and Divine(05)

Mine was Golden Rose( I would have preferred Raisin Shimmer, much better colour on me) and there was also a voucher enclosed in the bag.

Sadly ACM didn't provide me with a £5 P+P voucher, a shame as I had really hoped for one.

Still, it was nice to visit somewhere other than my much smaller local store, so I can't grumble.

I found a lonely looking bach rescue gift set at £2, not sure how much it was before, but I think £2 is a bargain price?

also spotted sea kelp & water mint foaming bath essence 500ml, reduced to 19p on sel, so I bought a couple of these. I was tempted to buy lots, but I have nowhere to store them. Someone else can have them:)
