While im still being kept awake by youngest, pls can anyone recommend any teething remedies? Have tried bonjella, anbesol, powders of some sort in a blue and white box (cant remember name at mo) all with not much luck. The poor mite keeps wanting to feed cause she needs to rub her gums

amber bead teething necklaces seem to work miracles for some people - one of my friends swears by them for her little ones, another friend thinks it helped her son a bit

you can get them on ebay hth

Yes, you can order instore and pay with points. Usually at the photo counter. I think if you look on the store locator you can see which stores allow you to order instore

Managed to get radox shower fresh for 79p on bogof this morning on fargate.
Clearancer section was very empty, saw a woman with a 17 silver clutch bag marked down to 20p but couldn't find any.

Regarding S&G, I tried to get 1 mini today on a voucher. The sa scanned it and of course it beeped, I had took a print out of the email I had recieved as well. The till siad I had not met qualifying spend, then sa said that the voucher didn't have t&c's on it (which it did underneath). I just said ok but she went off to get supervisor, came back and said it could only be used on full size facial as stated in t&c's. I was like what?

I wasn't going to argue as their was a queue forming and you win some you lose some. Obviously there has been a lack of communication between S&G and mr b's but well done to everyone who managed to get some.

the manager at my store said the bath soak was being discontinued??

They also didnt have any of the body beautiful range at 342, when I questioned it she said that no stores should because of the gwp, and she would personally phone any stores who were still runnin the promotion to tell them to stop?!?
Didn't have the heart to tell her that .com also running promo, wonder if she would phone them as well to 'tell them to stop':rotfl:

gave SA 250 points voucher from previous gwp then the £5 off P&P ACM voucher
Total to pay £7.25 and 250 points back so £4.75 in boots logic

Just got back from Liverpool St. Feel very pleased with myself.

Bought:

P&P Body Serum - 50% off so £12.25
No 7 GWP - FREE
Olay Total Effects Cream Wash - £5.86

(I feigned ignorance and didn't pick up a GWP, but made sure I paid at the No7 counter. I asked the nice SA if I could get the GWP, and got one and scanned it and, as I knew it would, it worked. Which is good, because if she'd just 'no', I didn't have a plan B!)

Handed over skincare wrinklie and £5 of P&P ACM voucher so £8-something to pay (bought a few extra bits and bobs as well, but these weren't very exciting!)

Then, I tried the S&G. I had them in my basket, but kept them seperate, saying 'I have a voucher and not sure if it works'. The SA was lovely and said she'd do them all in one, so I let her try. Of course, it didn't work and the supervisor was called. First he said the voucher were photocopies, and I pointed out that it was a mailout and so it was printed, not copied. Then he said they were on 342 so couldn't be used, and I said I was happy to do them individually.

Anyway, it all worked and I got 3 for 60p. So, so far, nearly... (does bad maths in head) £38 worth of stuff plus GWP for less than £10.

Then, I thought I'd pass on the Boots knowledge as a lady next to me was buying a Girard set, and I had already spied a Love Notes brochure at the till. I pretended to flick through i casually before pointing it out to her. Course, she was not a seasoned Bootser and kept asking the SA when the £5 came off, and the SA kept telling her it would go on her card. All whilst the supervisor was wrestling with my S&G's. Needless to say, I bolted as soon as I was done! I reckon they've got me pegged as 'trouble' now!

Just back from Bristol Cribbs Causeway

No HE, but they have got quite a few of the putting sets. Hubby plays enough golf so he doesn't need any encouragement.:rotfl:

Bought the Umberto Giannini glossing mist, used £2 off hair winkle (?) and also handed over 150 points i had from the acm. Before I handed over my voucher the SA actually asked if i had a voucher as she was just going to give me one for the discount.:j

I thought i'd try my last S & G i had printed on a mini, i was so pleased the sa tried scanning it, no, key entered the numbers, no, and then said with a smile i'll take your £2 off as a boots coupon.:T

I have to say everytime i shop in Boots Cribbs all SA's are lovely.
Hope everyone's having a lovely Valentines.

Oh and i also received another wrinkle

Does anyone know if the ss tills in reading (The Oracle) still only let you use one coupon before asking for assistance?

We use the Nelsons teetha powders and swear by them (regularly at 4am:rotfl: ) They are currently on 342 in Boots so £9.40 for three packs - I would pay full price if need be even though we go through double the amount as it works wonders with our two.
