Just back from Parkgate store in Rotherham and they have loads of pantene sachets, they've added another full box since last week. Also some types of HE available. I just bought 2 conditioners 73p and 4 sachets for my 600 points and blinkie.

Lots of reduced N07 stuff still including nail polishes at around £3. The hair spritz is now reduced from £5+ to £2.53, but it was only £1 in Retford on Saturday.

Couldn't find any of the GWP that are scanning at £0. They might be there, but I didn't see them.

looks like they had a delivery of these then as when i was in partgate on saturday there was no HE no pantene and deff no hair spritz as i asked at no 7 counter.

I am having probs with .com..... I have 62 items in my basket from the 75% sale which i missed out on, but it wont let me empty my basket now, anyone got any suggestions? It lets me log in, and add more items, but when i click to see what is in my basket, i get the dreaded generic error message.
I have deleted my cookies, but still get the gereric message.:mad:

I too had items in my basket from the sale and had exactley the same problem , emailed customer services and they were useless. Anyway, go to boots but do not log in, add something to your basket, toothpaste, anything, then when you have 1 item in you basket click on where is says 1 item, then it will ask you to log in, log in and the you should see your basket with all your items from the sale. I found this worked for me, so hope it does the same for you. Good Luck!!

Did Nuninge or the other lady, or anyone else use the above voucher today? If so, did it go through as an Incentive Bond? I don't know whether to try my luck with mine or just bin them. Eeeek!

Flounced into Boots as you do on a cold Monday afternoon. Took back Eau De Toilette gift set. SA gave me refund no problems. Thanks for clarification Ikkle.

Still got tart loads of NO7 HYDRO QUENCH/INSTANT RADIANCE/SUNCARE stuff on clearance. All near the tills towards the mall entrance. Suncare was like £2.50ish and everything else was £5.00+. Also saw heaps of WILKINSON SWORD/GILLETTE with price drop labels on, most of it was like £1.00ish. Quite a lot of Xmas wrapping paper etc on 75% off upstairs along with all kinds of other clutter. Also saw a big clearance pile upstairs near CS desk, all kinds of junk on it.

Did not see any OLAY GWP's that were pointed out by the lovely TIRkiz last week.

Anyway, have fun shopping.

PS. Where do you find the 3 x Cadbury's Creme Eggs? Searched all over and only saw the singular ones.

Just to echo mimi above...
Couldn't find the Creme Eggs anywhere either...talk about an Easter Egg Hunt. Plus they'd moved the store around so it took me twice as long to do my Action Man Eagle Eyes routine:rotfl:
Spotted lots of toys still sporting their xmas 342 green parcel stickers...took a selection to be price checked, but all scanned at full price.
No Olay GWP left but Roc now offering a free paper bag with any purchase:rolleyes:
No reduced HE but a few Pantene sachets left. ( the 100 pts offer ends tomorrow).
Used a few Blinkies & earnt a few more back.
Asked about 90% on Wed...got blank stares back
Bought 20 packs x Halls Menthol throat sweets with points @ 28p each...cost 75p a pack at my local shop:eek:

Shop 1

Pantene sachets * 4 = £3.88 (400pts rec'd)
UG Mini = £1.56

(Gave ACM voucher for 150pts! This voucher is not 2b used on minis, lol!)

Total £5.44 (rec'd 550pts + Blinkie);

sorry to snip but did the 150 points coupon scan or did the sa have to enter the points manually??

don't worry, this is a comon problem , even the cs lady I spoke to has it!
if you want to order anything, do not log in, just do the order and add your details and advantage card at the end.

To get into your current basket, do not log in, add something definitely in stock to the basket, then you should be able to log in and get into your basket and edit it. Although if you don't actually want to order at the moment there is not much point, as I did all this and managed to empty my basket only to find that randon items/amounts had been added back in the next time I logged in :eek:
But never fear, Boots.com are on the case and I was told they are doing a data cleanse at the start of Feb, which will sort out all the problems (as my teenaged DD's say - yeah right :rolleyes:)

Good day today. My dot com order from Thursday arrived 2 days early. I have to agree that the packaging leaves a lot to be desired, lots of crumpled up brown paper that does little to stabilise the contents.

Managed to find HE reduced to 37p in a tiny store today, only 1 variety though and liberated the last 5 bottles as they looked so lonely amongst the full price ones. Got 500 points on a £1.85 spend
Also in same store found the elusive No 7 Vivid Violet nail polish @ £6.12 - used blinkie and 250 points voucher

Then went to Retail park
2 x Hydro Quench sauna masks @ £3.00 each
1 x No 7 instant leg tanning stuff @ £3.00 but free on 342
2 x Collection 2000 Perfecting minerals reduced to £2.44 BUT they were reduced by a further £1.00 when they went through the till. Bargain at £1.44 as they are normally about £5
Used blinkie so only £3.88 to pay

Loads of No 7 sun stuff reduced there to about the £3 mark BUT yesterday in Oldham all the suncare was reduced even further and on 342
Glossy locks - 75p
P&P Skin soothing aftersun - £1.10
P&P Cooling Aftersun for face - 99p
P&P Pre-holiday serum - 99p
Sun creams about £1.25

Just need a cheap holiday now!

I managed to get this reduced to £3.50 in my local today (clearance lable and last one). Don't know if its meant to be reduced or if someone reduced it by accident thinking it was xmas stock!

handed over 500pts mailing voucher and then blinkie. The sa scanned it and then said "oh, these cant be used together" and was going to make me choose which one i would rather use. By this time the receipt had popped out as there was nothing to pay and she still called her supervisor to over-ride!! Thankgoodness the supervisor just laughed and handed me it!

Anyway...might be worthwhile getting price checked!
