Are we not allowed to exchange cosmetics? i have a no 7 nail polish i wanted to swap for some different brand nail strenthener?

youre only allowed to exchande cosmetics if youve had a reaction.

Make sure that you get one voucher per Lynx. I bought 5 today and made the mistake of only using one coupon. Therefore, I might have to return some at the weekend. How does that work with the save £4 deal when you spend £10 on mens stuff?

I returned some Botanics that I was told by S/A was BOGOF and the grumpy assistant took my points back! I wonder what she would have done if I had said I had forgotten it!

Welcome to the thread ecm09!

Talking of courage, you'll soon have enough for a stand-off with a crabby SA when you're trying to get a free Gymball/Ab Toner/TD/BOGOF/reduction etc etc!

Hee hee!!

Wasn't brave enough for the gym ball or Ab toner , but have been known to argue the t0ss over the TD & Lynx points!! :rotfl:

I'm a lot braver than I used to be thanks to Boots & of course Tescos!! Think OH is scared where this will lead!! :rotfl:

If i'd have thought on I could have taken a sneeky pic with me moby!

I saw your comment earlier about nail polish... I have managed to change mine. The lady pointed out that it was cosmetics and I said: ¿que? In my best Spanish accent :rotfl: :rotfl:

On other matters I had what I :rotfl: thought It was a good shopping an extra 2791 points added mixture of EI and Trevor Sorbie, thanks to bham-dave who explain the difference and I managed to get 7 of the old minis, so I though good I buy up the value of 10 pounds and I'll get 4 off... I should had got a calculator as I asked the SA how much was all, she said eleven -- I forgot that I put the bodyform.....so when the bill came it was 16.64, but no deduction of 4 pounds. :mad:

So a good shopping in someways but not so good in others. I have funny items that I am not sure how I am going to get rid of funny things.

the fcuk vouchers are multi pointing too, bought a reduced FCUK aftershave today for £8 also reduced shaving foam for £2 and a minature body spray for 89p 1 voucher handed in and not only did i get the £4 off i got 300 points even for the minature (it does say these are excluded on the voucher but it worked)

also got the skin voucher which i spent on a DR face kit down from £14.99 to £7.49 so £2.49 to pay!!!!

used my vouchers from pigsback and the 250 points voucher from the free bag so paid £5 for some new foundation 2 fake tan correction sachets and also got a secon free number 7 bag...happy days
