    did someone say that boots acm's or boots.com change their offers every wednesday?

    Also with all these peeps managing to get the avene gift bags do we have a list of the qualifying ranges yet?

    If anybody can pm me with what ranges you got the free bag with....I can put it all together for the first post. :D

    It does seem to work with anything though! :D
  • A pic is back a couple of pages.

    Meadowhall update. Didn't see any bags. boo. The sony mp3 players look to have gone (but didn't ask if there were any in the back - see diff thread).
    They did have more boots morroccan rose souffle and also some spa stuff at 25p (bath salts) and other bits and bobs.
    Lots of bodyform with the £1 vouchers on.
    I didn't acutally buy much, just got a load of pics printed with my voucher and spent £12 so got some chocs too :)
  • Good morning my fellow "Bootsers". I'm shortly off to do my 10 mile drive to nearest Boots with AC machine. Why can't all the branches have them :mad: I only manage to do this about once a week as I work miles from Boots so I have to make sure I take full "Advantage" if you know what I mean ;)

    Have written myself a nice list so I am organised when I get there, otherwise my brain tends to go into forget mode and I'll come away with nothing :o


    Hope you all have a good morning. I'll let you all know how I get on, I'm mainly hoping to get another EI voucher and the Avene bag. Fingers crossed :D
  • Avene products are Botanics Skin Care, Olay regenerist, Daniel Ryman, and a few others.

    But it doesnt matter as they go through for free anyway. Its not at every branch either.

    If its instore there is a A4 poster by the tills for SA to check. Most dont seem to know what it is though.

    Just a quick question - I want to make a gift sets of the EI (h/wash+b/wash+lotion). Anyone has any ideas where I could get cheap bags or how could I pack them nicely? My BF is going home next tuesday and I want to make a gift for him mum. Who knows, I might even pack something from DR range!!!!

    Have a couple of 'sets' myself and was wondering the same thing. Might end up just getting some cellophane and some pretty string.

    Hi all, look out for Skin Kindly stuff in the clearance / sale bits in Boots, as they still come up as Bogof. I managed to get 2 bottles of body moisturiser for 90p yesterday. Hooray for Boots!!


    Boots at MK (Kingston?) had some Skin Kindly body polish in reduced - £2.00 a pot, so I picked up 2 and the SA said they were BOGOF too (like I didn't already know!) so got two pots for £2.00 - will be good to exfoliate before using my Piz Buin fake tan they also had knocked down to £1!

    I've been toying with the idea of asking the local florist shop if I can buy a few metres of plain / delicately patterned cellophane wrap to make nice wrapping out of.. maybe place the items in the middle of a square of cellophane - gather up the sides and tie the the top with ribbon?

    Yesterday (first time I've seen them) Tesco had a hard plastic type make-up carry/store case with top handle - bit like samsonite do but obviously not as up market! But they were only £3.12 ( I think I was in a hurry but will check later and edit may have been £3.19) Anyway - with some coloured shreaded papper in side and some products I think these would make a very swish gift - maybe not so much for the EI but for someone thinking of doing a TD/DR gift pack.

    I gave my Mum a bag of TD for her birthday (was a bit worried she might be offended, but she thought they were really nice). I got a plain gift bag (xmas sales!) and some coloured tissue paper to screw up and pack round them, and it looked really nice.

    I've also seen some silver mesh material gift bags - in Boots funnily enough - with a small press-stud fastner, they were in the sale range so I don't know whether you can still get them, but you could put any range in them.

    Also, Boots sometimes have gift bags for some ranges knocked down. For the cost, I pick them up and pop them in a drawer, then if I manage to collect some bargains in that range, I have a matching gift bag - eg got a Sanctuary gift bag in the xmas clearance for 10p - now just need some bargain Sanctuary products to go in it!!
