    i think so;) the picture is on the listing but cant see the price clearly. so they are mistaken
    or a profesional ebayer.

    I copied the image from ebay and opened it in photoshop and zoomed in:rotfl: - it shows 105 (euros - but can't find the sign) for ROI.

    Have a look out for these Magnetic photo frames on your travels
    2.5" x 3.5"

    Were £7.83 now cost 0.49p (includes 10% discount)

    The smaller size cost 0.36p (includes 10% discount)


    Also the Snowman SUC (Single use camera) £2.25 & BOGOF. They work out at £1.01 each (includes 10% discount) Best before date of 2011.

    This was my first day at Boots for quite a while, due to the fact that I am an old wreck. Recovering now thanks to the power of steroids.

    pollsdolls - they are gorgeous. Are they with the rest of the photoframes? I am photo mad and seem to collect photo frames more than Boots No 7 stuff (and that is saying something:rolleyes:)

    Thanks for posting this - I am off to my (pretty useless) Boots in the morning to check

    Just a snippit of news for Edinburgh and area Bootsers. I was in Fort Kinnaird today and noticed a sign on the Elizabeth Arden counter saying it was being removed, and that they were going to be installing a counter with R&M, Urban Decay, Two Faced and...err...one of the other young 'n trendy make up ranges. Four in all, starting 1st Feb.

    Good news for using up R&M vouchers anyway, rather than having to go to Straiton. The R&M stand in Straiton always looks a bit battered tbh. Feb1st is the last day for using Blinkies, isn't it? And I have a 500 points voucher for R&M...

    It would be nice if they could do this in our branch, too. They don't stock any of those cosmetic ranges, although they do sell R&M brushes and had the R&M gift sets over Christmas. I know it's possible to order online or in-branch, but I like to see the colours properly before I buy them.

    The Elizabeth Arden rep never seems to be there anyway, so they might as well

    Do you think the seller is mistaking the ROI price which is shown underneath the £70 price I can't rememer this item ever being sold at £100 (but may be wrong)


    i'm pretty certain that is the ROI price!! i bought this before xmas and my MIL made the same mistake!

    i was half tempted to mention to the seller that i could see that from the picture and could he/she check again and clarify this!!
    And truth be told I miss you...

    The extra 200 points mailing, wyb any facial skincare, will work on the NO7 face wash or scrub,
    so does the 250 extra points, wyb any No7, from gwp.
    If you get a really nice SA, it will be worth trying all 3 coupons together.
    Remember, that if the SA says no, its worth asking them to see if the till allows everything to go through
    (I usually say...oh, can you just try them for me please).
    Give in your extra points coupons first and leave your blinkie until the end, I have found it usually works that way. HTH. :)


    thanks,

    i'm planning to do it on a ss!;)

    Was someone asking awhile back about looking for a particular baby changing bag? (or was it just one of 'those' Bootsing dreams we all seem to have).

    Anyway, if it wasn't a dream i saw 3 baby pink faux suede changing bags reduced to £15** in Leeds city centre store today.

    Also, in addition to the already reduced Mini Mode clothes there was a rail with summer stuff reduced down to £3 & £5.

    HTH.

    It was me. I have asked a few times sounds like the bag i'm looking for but passion8 got hers for £5 so don't really want to pay £15 if anyone has the product code for this it would be great so i can check stock with cs. Thanks for thinking of me though.

    I have yet to find a Boots with SS tills. Maybe I am walking round with my eyes wide SHUT:rotfl:

    vaz119 - you're braver than me if you do email that ebay seller;) Good luck if you do...and let us know the response, because you can bet they won't show the questions at the bottom of the listing:rotfl:
  • yep def rol price as i got one for a friend. Lol it could be an honest mistake so i would email the seller so she can edit her listing as she does come across a bit mardy. Can't believe how some people bid like crazy i never do very well with ebay.

    They were next to the tills in the photo section of the store. I found them just by chance when paying for other items. They weren't with the other photo frames. They have the green parcel stickers on them too. They were mixed in with other small odds and ends from the sale. Staplers, tiny photo albums etc. Basically I think they were just the last of the sale items on that floor. They really are lovely, and a really strong magnetic 'pull' on them. Good luck

    Hi,
    The free stuff with a blinkie is basically anything No7 which is £5 or less, or Ruby & Millie £5 or less. Now, if you want the new no7 GWP, you need to spend £18 on No7. So, you could pick No7 items which total £25 (if you want to use up your £20 boots voucher), get the GWP, and pay with your Boots vouchers and a blinkie.

    I'm not sure if thats what you mean, as I'm a bit confused by your term "free stuff". Do you mean the GWP? Or do you mean something else?


    My fault enitrely was looking on this link:-
    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=17354141&postcount=1954

    Got confused thought you could get additional free items as well as using the blinkie plus whatever you bought for under a fiver:o. I was once at a shop which gave out codes like this. One time i received £200 worth of free stuff because of glitch when i spent £8 on a brush used a voucher for £5 so in the end spent£3 for £208.
    I think Sophisticated was putting them up to save people from trawling through boots looking for cheap stuff.

    Just looked £20 for free gift on wednesday hmm. Well off to boots tomorrow to buy shaving cream for partner as its cheaper in boots for nivea shaving gel than it is in Wilko's :eek: by a whopping 50p

    Thanks for your help again!!
