it says "colour cosmetics" but have people been able to spend it on other no7 stuff, e.g moisturizers, nail filers etc?

Tried to use perkie on R&M makeup brush (as had some pts fo R&M too) but the till accepted none!:( As has been mentioned previously it looks like the new perkies cannot b used on accessories...:(

They expire 6 March. Does anyone know, if you get products to the value of £25, can you then use this voucher with wrinklie and hairy and perky and acm P&P voucher, or do you actually have to hand over £20 in cash?

I think as it has been mentioned b4 the £5/£25 only works after all the vouchers have gone thru so yes, one would have to hand over £20 in money... HTH

CONT ... In shop 1.. I went in with NO7 250 points voucher already from last GWP, so when I got the GWP, after I had paid for items, I used the voucher for the next transaction. After I had bought a few things I walked off for a min, then went back to the SA that served me, to ask if the mini that is going through with the hairy was the hairspray, only to over hear the next SA saying very loudly to the SA's whilst serving a customer.. that using the coupons out of the GWP's isn't allowed on that same transaction + the SA that served me just said that she didn't do that + she ( meaning me ) had paid for items first, so I said, actually! I bought the items + used the voucher for the next transaction! to which everyone turned around + just looked at me, yes their were shocked that their didn't know I was there + their were talking about me. Maybe if people asked first instead of jumping to conclusions then their would understand the truth instead of making accusations etc ... hmmm MR.B does seem to have some very nice SA's + some not so very nice SA's.

O/T - hope you don't mind me putting this on. But there is curretly a petition on the downing street website which I am sure you will all think is worthwhile. It is to get the Smear test age reduced back down to 16 -18 from the current 25 as a lot of people are having them refused by the GP due to being too young. Please sign it to help.
http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/smeartests/
Sorry if people get offended or take issue to this, but thought most of this forums members would be understanding about it due to other healt issues that some members do have.
Thanks

I'm happy to sign to that I'm sure I was under 25 when I had my first smear.

These are the T&C for the perkie kindly posted y est 1878 on post 747


Don't forget it only takes a few extra keys to say please and thank you a few posters seem to be forgetting their manners.

Decided to go into Manchester before work, to spend my "breeding" wrinklies/hairies!!

Got the following (in seperate transactions - the SA was very patient with me!):

JF Hairspray for 44p (used Hairy) x 2
TD Eye Cream for £1.84 (used Wrinklie)
Olay Thermal Polish for £1.84 (used Wrinklie) - no GWP to be seen, boohiss!!
TD Sunshine Facial Moisturiser for 86p (used Wrinklie)
TD Radiance Booster for £1.84 (used Wrinklie)

So, in total, spent about £7 & saved £24! Came away with a bag-full of goodies (not much in way of points or GWP's, though, but already have the current No 7 GWP & think the other No 7 items a bit expensive). Noticed when I got back that not all the receipts show points credited, so might have to see if I can speak to CS to find out if I can get them added, but would only be about 4 per transaction, so probably not worth it!!

Gutted I didn't spot on here that the minis work with the ACM points, as I've swapped some £5 P&P vouchers for a handful of haircare ACM vouchers, so might have to go on a mission on Sunday!!

Is it me or am I missing any reductions at the Market Street, Manchester branch? Can't find any GWP's, Putting Sets, or even a "reduced" section. Have any Manchester Bootsters seen anything at any of the others nearby (such as Regent Road, Salford or Crown Point, Denton) I saw the post about Manchester Fort, a few pages back, but anything else of interest?

Oh, don't bother with the Clinique consultation, as they haven't got any samples left, so I didn't get any freebies. But went into Lush on the way back to work & got a Girls Night In set for £10, with a couple of free samples thrown in (sorry to post off-topic) so that made up for it a bit!

Happy weekend Bootsing!!

S xx

PS: Got a survey entry, so off to do that next!! Fingers crossed for the £1000!

So....how do they work??
Example: can i use them all together (£3 total) to buy a Meal Deal? & if so, will that meal register on my AC towards my '5 purchased/get 6th free'.........pleeeeeze say yes

Pretty obvious really but, do they have to be used on food items.......this time say no

TIA


I've not spent mine in Boots - naughty me!! but they would be valid on meal deals in as many vouchers as you wanted to make up the spend, not sure about non food.
I usually spend mine in supermarkets - if you tell them they need putting through as 'Gift Vouchers', you can spend as many as you like in one transaction, even paying for all your shopping with them, if they put them through as MOS's you can only spend something like 10% of your shopping total. With the money you saved on your shopping, you could then buy things from Boots.

Start worrying when your OH starts holding your hand JT :rotfl: Or both of them!

No massive bargains today, apart from a Pack of Thermacare Heatwraps for £1.22 (I'm sure there's an offer on for free samples, but thought I'd give them a whirl on my injured elbow.)

Nearly had to go back and get some more after a bloody big car reversed into me! I turned to give the driver some verbal, and .....

..... it was my OH ...!

Gotta laugh, I think :eek:

Sorry, this really had me in stitches, just imagined you getting out to shout and finding your OH:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
