:hello: Hallo! I couldn't sleep, so turned on the computer, and found I had an email from .......MSE! It was saying my PM box was almost full, which I thought was odd, because I empty it daily.

I've been in tears reading all your lovely messages, especially the one from VS - thank you so much. So .........................


I'd like to tell a little story
About a brand called Soap & Glory

Who gave a really great reduction
Which started quite a dreadful ruction!

To cut a lengthy story short
A poster called Verruca Salt

Appeared to have a go at me
But things aren't black & white, you see

Cos though at first I thought "Oh Streuth"!
Perhaps VS just tells the truth?

And Agent Scarlett isn't right
It's Angel Scarlett - shining bright! :A

She sent me such a nice PM
And boy! I had a load of them

I'm sure she's not a holy terror,
Perhaps her post was sent in error?

I love this Board - I think it's great
No need for Soap & Glorygate!

So let's forgive - it's best forgotten
Cos being off this Board is rotten!!! :grouphug:

The SA has to manually add my T&G points every time on MM - but we both agree that MM is a T&G product, and MM is not excluded from the points, so I've always had them manually added. I guess its another "stand your ground in the face of SA explanations" scenario.

The Girard perfume sets (body lotion, shower gel, and perfume) are all reduced on the SEL in the stores I visit. Around £8/£9, this is half price. But if you're lucky, you might find some SELs that are half that price again

Am gutted, I had no clue the SA could manually add on points....i knew they could manually deduct the vouchers but being quite new to this im still learning.

I have bought about 5 model me products using wrinkly's and each time SA tried to scan the 150 pts voucher but didnt work, I know customer service can add points manually...do you think they would add some points for a transaction that didnt get the points due to voucher not scanning? I have some of my receipts but they all show the items as going thro free with the voucher. Ive never phoned CS before so not sure what they all can do.....in fact i dont think i have used the vouchers before from the ACM, this bootsing is indeed a whole new experience and im sure i still have loads to learn, looking forward to it.

Thanks again Balletshoes :beer:

ROC foaming cleanser (6.84) used £5 wrinkly, so 1.84 to pay.
Plus a free gift bag with a few ROC samples in it.

Sorry to snip:o (wishuponastar)
No problem at all, saves on thread space!

Could you possibly tell us more about the ROC gift bag please?
There were 4 left on a shelf the other day when i was in and i wondered what they were as there was no mention of them being a GWP or anything. But they were up high, above head height but indeed within reaching distance so i pondered the thought they may have been just for decoration (they were glossy type material, similar to a xmas or bday gift bag with blue rope for a handle).

Today as i was buying a ROC product i felt i could reach up and have a nosey but they looked to contain a box?? which was about 7cm x 7cm, cardboard sleeved amonst other literature....possibly some ROC offers i thought.....

But sadly this 7x7 box was more packing than anything....inside it had the smallest trial tube (5ml) of ROC cream and a few sachets of the Retinox range. That was all but better than nothing i thought and i have a nice gift bag if i make up a ROC present for a friend. Shame S and G didnt do gift bags for making up pressies :cheesy:

Amonst the literature there was an offer for "younger looking skin or money back" and the deadline for sending empty pots that havent resulted in younger looking skin back to ROC for a refund was oct/nov 2008!! so think these have def been left over from the launch of the Retin-ox range.


Thank you
WBx
PS good shop!!!!! Thanks i was pleased with my shop as always since discovering MSE....:T

I have replied above in Bold, in case anyone is confused thinking the whole of above is what has been quoted from previous....not sure if that is the done thing but hope it makes sense.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah - I love a happy ending ! Nice one SS :kisses:.
I think VS has also shown her true colours by her gracious apologies. I hope she sticks around too and doesn't feel bad. I think things tend to get blown up when it's all just written in black and white on a page, rather than said in person. I have someimes written things in haste then gone back and deleted them. xxxxx
