Suspicious of what? It's a fair and legit offer on their part and no limit on how much you could buy. Most folk (including me) would have picked up at least one blinkies worth.
I had other stuff to buy anyway, so the 2 bottles made it just over £5, otherwise I probably would have done. I don't even know what I'm worried about really, I'm just a bit paranoid I think lol.0 -

Just playing around with .com and the l'oreal GWP ( as they never seem to have it in my store) and although the min spend is £15, it adds it on the skincare which is on offer , as long as the original price is above £15.
I added 2 revitalift creams reduced to 6.77 from 9.77 and it added the GWP.

You did way better than me today - you were a Bootser on a mission!

Reading Booters: The Oracle Boots has a couple of old 17 gwps for £1 each. There are several in the displays above the 17 cosmetics, and they are the little metallic-colored clutch (I can't tell if it's gold or silver!) and the bronzing set (only a few of this one left). There is no price listed and no sign, but that's what they scan as (they don't scan as 0.00; I'm sure -- I did it myself on an SS till).
could anyone get one of these for me please? i've just come home after back surgery, so won't be able to get out and about for a while and nab one

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.
Lots of these sets (at least 15) in:
- Harrow St Georges (today)
- Brent Cross (on thursday)0 -
and oxford cowely road0
