Quick query: do all the No7 GWPs have plum beautiful lipsticks in them, or are there any other colours? Just I got plum beautiful in the only GWP I've got so far, and I noticed a lot of people on here have mentioned the same colour!

TIA

To keep it on topic: has anyone actually used the £1.95 JF serum that you can get free with the hairy? Is it any good? My hair can be a bit frizz-prone, but other serums I've used in the past have just made it look greasy. If the serum's no good, I'd rather spend the 44p to get the hairspray as at least I'll use that!

TIA

I love the serum, a little goes a looonng way so a little bottle will last ages. My hairs about bra strap length and I only put a tiny drop on, rub it on my hands first then smooth my hands through my hair. Yesterday I was using up my last hairies and a lady who was probably 65+ years had a bottle of this in her hand. I couldnt see her clutching any vouchers (unlike me!) so asked her would she be paying cash for it? I got a look like Id asked did she like skinning kittens :rotfl:of course she was paying cash, how else do you get goods!? I gave her one of my hairies and she was over the moon. Her and her friend walked off then came back to say Thank you again and that Id restored their faith in the youth of today, im 28! It was nice to make someone else smile.

I've had pink lemonade, mullberry, plum beautiful, golden raisin (I think that's right) and another one that was more of a gold colour - didn't suit me at all but can't remember the name of it. Most of mine have been plum beautiful. Just realised how many GWPs I must have collected! but have given several away (minus points vouchers) to DD, DIL and a couple of friends - who are all thrilled.

Visited Crystal Peaks today. Both here and at Meadowhall NC are still full price so no lovely cupcakes, sanctuary travel still £7, no l'oreal anti-fatigue, no putting sets. Boring!!!

I'm getting no P&P vouchers, no wombling!!

Also in both stores they have completely run out of the Olay face creams that you could spend less than £2 with wrinklies.

I'm getting depressed reading about everyone elses gr8 bargains!!

Excellence hair colour Blonde8.31 £1.25 (stickered) but saving £1 so 25p
Macleans white gel £1.37 (reduced sel) and 342
DNAGE cell renewal something just over £5, but till beep for wrinklie
HTH
A request for info...has anybody found any Olay GWP in the South East? I have been unable to locate any at all and would appreciate any guidance! Thanks!

thanks scarlett.1974

also another quick question, if I was to buy some p & p 30ml serum for £18.50 then used the £5 voucher from the acm along with the new purpley? would I still qualify for the gwp?

Sorry i'ts a bit longwinded I can't seem to work anything out at the moment, someone has stolen my brain during the half term and replaced it with fluff

Thanks

Yes you would. Your initial purchase is over £18, so you'd qualify. If you have points from a previous GWP, give those in first, then present your vouchers one by one. Then smile, and congratulate yourself on being a very Canny Shopper, who has purchased a beautiful serum for less than half price!

You will also be given a Perky, and nestling in your GWP, you will find a 250 points voucher. Good, 'ennit?

He cant complain about me buying items from Boots if they are for him and I can get to keep the pinkie !!

I saw those LOREAL grey bags yesterday but they were £14 odds- is this a misprice ?

Not a misprice as such, that's the original price on the SEL but they actually go through the tills at £3.71 B1G1HP

The JF serum is excellent, you only need a small pea sized blob though otherwise it will make your hair look lank. If you like it then it's probably better value to buy a bigger size and pay the difference, it lasts for ages.

This may seem like a silly question, cos it is a silly question :rolleyes:

I've just tried the Body polish (sample from GWP) and the Olay Regenerist cream wash (£5.86 one). Both make my skin feel softer. Silly question is, can I use the Olay cleanser as a body cleanser? Or will it laugh at me and say "I only work on the bits you show off, not the hidden bits" :rotfl: ?

If I can get the Olay for 86p and the body polish is much dearer, seems silly to not just go for the Olay one, doesn't it?
