    Dont forget to look out for mens Kangol '4' Shower gels and Anti-perspirant sprays - picked some up again in Wolverhampton for 37p each yesterday.

    Not marked on the shelf edge, in fact there was no label, thats why I got the price scanned and checked because I had some last week in Walsall at the same prices.

    There are 4 varieties in the range - aptly named Kangol 1, 2 3 and 4 - the 1 2 and 3 varieties are all full price (£2.99 for APD and £1.99 for showergel I think) only the '4' variety is reduced as far as I know.

    Hope someone else finds some too ;)

    I got a load of Kangol 1 anti-perspirant sprays for 75p. The reduced ones are basically an old style of can - it depends what you have in your local stores to whether or not they have reduced them.

    Anyone with goods to exchange may be able to really fill their boots by exchanging them for EI products.

    I've got an unopened TD eye cream to take back which would get me 8 bottles of EI plus 1200 points (if the voucher is adding 150 to your card for each item).

    kit posted the above on 30 Jan on the old Grabbit thread, but I don't think it was mentioned afterwards.

    Has anyone managed to find any "Eastern" products yet? All the SA's I asked had never heard of it.

    It is a boots own brand - clear tubs with mainly black labels. In my local store it is on the shelf next to the EA stuff.

    Thanks to the poster who mentioned the EI. It really works!!

    I bought:

    2 x bath soak @ £2.66
    4 x bodywash @ £1.99
    4 x body lotion @ £1.99
    2 x handwash @ £1.66

    Total paid £12.28

    Points received 1800!!

    I could have done it even cheaper, of course, but I bought stuff for pressies. Best thing was, I chose the nicest SA, who checked them for me, and was amazed, and she then gave me back my voucher so I could go and get some more.

    There's plenty left, and the honey stuff does smell divine.

    On a separate note, the gift bag DOES contain a voucher - for 250 points on No, 7 until 12.04.06.

    And I presume that if you can get more than one EI voucher, and put the goods thru the till in transactions totalling at least £10, you'll get a "Choccies for 99p" voucher for each transaction! :)

  • sarahg1969 , so you just handed one the vouchers out of the AC machine to her and asked sa if she could use it on each item, is that right?

    I never used to stock up on shampoos/conditioners/soaps/etc before and now my bathroom is fool of those and I also have a suitcase where I keep DR items and gym ball that I managed to get through the month. My boyfriend must think I am crazy!!!!!! I need to stop this - or soon our 1 bedroom flat will become Boots!!!!


    This must be why Boots are having so many offers, so that they can take over the world with mini branches! :D

    Have got some of the Eastern range for 37p, but in was in Weston and Locking, which is where Kit went I think. Have also had the Kangol 1 for 75p, but none of the others were reduced around here.

    Nipped into Boots when passing this morning - again - AC machine was out of order (both of them!), so didn't buy anything as I couldn't bear to think that I'd missed a bargain! But, there was an announcement about the £5.00 vouchers being given out with spends over £10.00, and I'm sure they said that TD was included :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Perhaps I've been so busy looking for it recently that I'm now hearing messages about it :eek:

    Did get some flower therapy stuff yesterday reduced to 75p at bottle, pink bath stuff, and some white bath milk. Looked on shelf today and was all marked at £1.50-£2.00 in sale section, looks like I was either lucky yesterday or some cheeky person had been swapping the labels around! (Not me I swear, I'm still in a cold sweat about discovering that my bargain black case with a little thing of Pucca lip stuff should never have had the lip stuff in to start with - one day I shall be arrested and I'll be frantically saying "but it wasn't me" :o Note to self, check for other people's dishonesty!)

    So has anyone found any great no 7 bargains. I have all the cream I need for about a year! And I managed to get some reduced sun stuff just after Christmas (73p for aftersun and £1.27 for sun cream - weird choice of prices!), I have various gift packs from the £5.00 no 7 voucher promo (ready to use as pressies), so what else can I buy? DD's are eyeing up these bags already!

    Yes, that's right. I just handed her one voucher. I asked her to check for me, and she was happy to. She put one lot of about a fiver through, then gave me back my voucher, so I could go and get some more after I'd paid (saved her voiding it off). I didn't get the choccies, because I didn't spend £10 in one transaction, but I had ot pay cash anyway, as I've left my card at home, and the EI was the better deal with the bit of money I had on me!!
