My mum has just found a Boots recipt from when she bought me my Clinique moisturiser for Christmas, it has been validaded (clever mum) though it is dated 23/12/08, would i stil be able to get the points, she spent £26.43, how many points is that?

45 days = about this friday will be the latest to have the points put on your card .. £1 = 4 points £26 = 104 points = £1.04

You get 4 points for each whole £ you spend, so 104 points.

Another quick question, i've ordered some stuff from Boots.com and got the no7 GWP. I've never used No7 before, i usually buy Mac, but i am trying to cut down on spending, is it any good? Also whats in the GWP the photo on the Boots site doesn't really show what the products are.

Edit...and as its my first "Bootsing" time would i be best to take my mums AD too, as i've heard that the ADM only gives certain offers to certain people, my mum hasn't used her card in years...lol! She prob has points on it too!

No snow here, we never ever get snow, only one of my children has ever sen it!!
Need some advice, never normally wear make up but thought I'd better start now (getting old!!), dont like full on foundation as seems too big a step to take from no make up to full on face. So was pleased when I saw tinted moisturiser in GWP....but....it turned my face very red, I'm assuming I was reacting to it, not that they had made it an interesting shade of red!! Redness died down after couple of hours and then it looked ok, but obviously couldnt spend the first two hours of every day locked up inside!.
Can anyone recommend a tinted moistriser or something else I can use to give me a healthy glow but that isnt too full on??
TIA for any advice, Hoping you can suggest lots of products which I will have to rush into boots to buy tomorrow!!:rotfl:

No7 had a tinted moisturiser which a lot of people liked though if you are reacting to one of their products maybe not...
How about one of the powder mineral foundations, there are a lot of them around in different ranges at the moment, light and easy to apply, you just need to use a brush and apply where needed no need to cover your whole face.

lipstick, mascara, body polish, eye shadow mousse, mens no 7 shower stuff, tinted moisturiser, p&p serum stuff, and hand cream (? I think)

Got another No7 GWP and all the ones I looked were with the code 31111 478 (which when purchased previously did not have the 250pts vouchers in them)... was quite tired of searching so decided to take the GWP only to find @ home there was a pts voucher!!! :T

So apologies if this has been posted but it looks like some of the GWPs with the above code do bring the pts vouchers!

Was that definitely the code? The 478 seen previously is 31115 478, of which some have vouchers and some don't, which might suggest that they ran out of vouchers whilst packing this particular batch. What colour was your lipstick?

I'd try the Maybelline mineral foundation, i've been using it for a week now and its really good. It doesn't feel heavy as its a powder, and its really light on your skin, just gives you a nice look to your skin, rather than looking like you've been tangoed! lol If you are going to go for mineral foundation, def invest in a good Kabuki brush for it though, the one that comes with it is crap! I use Mac's 182 brush, pricey at £30, but Superdrug/Boots do a Cosmopolitan one that i was using before i got my Mac one, and i think it does the job just as good, and is only about £6!
HTH!
