Sorry ladies - just a question. Noticing some people are talking about different bar codes on the no7 GWP? Whats the difference? Thankyou.

I think it's not an exact science but .... there are 2 codes - ending in 478 or 488. Some of the 478 ones do not have a 250 points voucher in (mine didn't!). The code is on the plastic wrapping and underneath the gwp. There is/was also a theory about which lipstick colours are available, but that was too complicated for me! HTH.
All the gwps in shops near me had the same code anyway. I checked about 10 in each shop (was too embarrassed to check any more!) and then gave up, got the gwp with the 478 code as there was no other choice.

I won't been going out today as snowed in. Ment to be going back to hospital today so thought i would nip to boots on way home. I really wanted to get my hands on the expert mens kits and putting set. Never mind i will have fun in the snow with ds. He wants to go out in it now in his pj's :rotfl:

They did offer me 20% discount but that still makes it £360. The 'free' second pair idea is ridiculous when our lenses cost that much. But hey the £3.60's worth of points is a real incentive, not!!!! Did see some sunglasses in the sale so maybe worth trying to getting a deal on those as the second pair but gas bill take priority at the mo

Wish I'd known that!! I'd have asked for the same. Hopefully someone else will be able to do so.

What's the deal with Radox? I saw yesterday it's on BOGOF. Is it that the SEL says full price but in ALL stores it's going through at around 40p? Sorry, have had a look back over 40 pages but can't find details.

If anyone in London is looking for wrapping paper there is still some on 2nd floor of Sedley place - 3 boxes. It said 75% off on box but didn;t try it to it may be more....

From what I've read/seen it's that certain Radox shower gel and handwash has a reduced SEL and still goes through on BOGOF. I think it's just the Daily Elements and the only one I've found is the green 'Restorative' shower cream at 49p which definately had a reduced SEL. DF would only let me get two though, he didn't appreciate what a bargain it was but seeing as he's the only one that will use it I guess that's fair!

Had plans to blitz Boots today - but am snowed in.
All that Radox and I can't get to it.

(Sorry, am sympathetic really but slightly high because weather has stopped a trip to London so I shall be able to go dancing tonight after all -- weather permitting!)

I think it smells identical to the one Johnsons discontinued, which was called mooncare, its a shame as I tried it too and not only does it taste the same, but it also fails to be a good lipcare treatment too, does nothing for chapped lips and you WILL need a mirror when applying this as it just looks plain nasty if its not blended in well! (But thats my opinion...)

I initially thought it did nothing, but it was later in the day and next day that I realised it was having an impact. I'm not sure it would work for chapped lips, as it's not really a chapstick as such, but for normal lips, I think it is great. When you first put it on, you think - this can't do anything as it doesn't feel like we are used to chapsticks feeling - but my lips are so soft and smooth I have been amazed

That's funny, when I used mine the other day, the SA removed my card from the machine, then checked the name/number against the receipt before putting it through....

Obviously SA specific.....or maybe they've cracked onto people sharing coupons?

It seems that you were unlucky Smiley, most SA's wouldn't do that but then there's always the odd one that's a jobsworth. Or maybe you just look suspicious (only joking ).
