Hey Girls,

Dad has had the Hickman Line put in (he was scared $hitless about this) and he was actually fine with it. Thanks for all your kind wishes and prayers. Some more things happening next week and then it's recovery period. Keep praying and thanks again everyone.

I had to go to work today as the car was full when they took him to hospital. Boohiss. Anyway, I just had to flounce into Boots which I did. Saw loads of Lemsip and Beechams flu sachets on clearance. Got about £10 worth as we always have flu at ours. They had 10 x Lemsip sachets for £2 and 5 x Lemsip sachets for £0.80. Bargain or what. Normally these are really expensive! Keep your eyes peeled for them. Might as well stock up for winter now. I did that last year, but then everything was down to 50p! Oh well. The ACM machine had some more £1.50 off Men's Expert vouchers but I had to walk away from them as I already have a few. Saw some Charles Worthington products on clearance too, I think it was like Super Shiny or something like that.

I saw loads of Shilpa Shetty EDT at Quality Save/Home Bargains at £2.00 each. I know they are probably pants, but at that it was a bargain. Looked like a proper bottle of perfume or whatever it was. Could work out as a cheapo present for a great aunt or something like that, or even a Secret Santa present!

mimi, glad to hear your dad is doing ok.

Keep your eyes peeled for £2 off healthcare vouchers. I got a couple the other day. They were just on a display instore. They are £2 off WYS £8 on healthcare. They might even work on bogof items. I still have the £2 off therma voucher from best, but I keep forgetting to use it. I might try and use both vouchers together. There's no harm in trying. Whether it works or not is another thing:D

I did the Norwich run on tuesday so sorry, I might have left you with not much to collect!

The SA's in castle mall were nothing less than spectacular! I'd phoned up and had their last 14 HE's reserved for me, but when I got there, the lady filling the shelves said there was more in the stock room! I ended up buying 38 bottles. They were put through the tills in nice blocks of just over 5 quid to get the haircare vouchers and the SA's were accomodating in letting me buy two model me shampoos with one voucher leaving just 44p to pay. Also got radox gels, palmolive and dove gels and a few deodorants so all in all a great store and totally superb service!

Also went to anglia square and had a few herbals and some other clearance, mainly nivea gels and radox gels, but a few other oddments like the mango and pomegranate shower bags. Various other clearance stuff in London St, chapelfield and riverside too! Total haul of 45 HE's and cleared the card down to almost nothing buying all the other clearance stuff!

Headed off to another part of the world today and got another 29 HE's taking my full total to 219 HE's and so much clearance stuff I can barely get in my spare room!

Shopping doesn't often come along this good so worth taking advantage when it does. :T

How many???? What on earth will you do with all that lot?????

Hi everyone.
Popped to boots today, got 3 naked sets for 21p each with my sun vouchers! There was 2 or 3 left plus handwashes at 98p. The sets had a clearance sticker on saying £4.40 but i just explained to the sa that the sel said £2.21 and she scanned the original barcode. She was really lovely. No haircare reduced so have 5 haircare vouchers still! This was at Slough.
Huge hugs to anyone suffering with illness, you are in my prayers. xxx

haha, fingers crossed!
He used to work there a few years ago, and his friend still works there, hopefully putting in a good word for him!
I'm actually thinking of applying to Boots myself, sick of working in Morrisons cafe! Been told i'm getting promoted to shift superviser since JUNE! still not happened yet!

Last time I heard it was 12.5% on everything but 22.5% on Boots own brands, presumably this includes No7

Also they have staff double discount days and some staff shopping events online too, though the online events haven't happened recently due to dot com problems.

Marry him, quick! :rotfl:
