Can anyone tell me what the Wrexham & Broughton stores are like at the moment?

Specifically if there are any HE left and the old L'Oreal GWP's?

Also on the look out for reduced stuff to use my £2 off Haircare vouchers with and STILL searchin for those elusive Mens L'OREAL ANTI FATIGUE thingies, lol.

Should have asked yesterday as Im planning on going later today.

Broughton ~ No reduced HE at all, very small clearance stand, few model me shampoos and mainly suncreams. They did however have LOADS of Olay GWp's, they are near the max factor stand on a stand on there own with max factor make up. No l'oreal bags.

WREXHAM high street ~ no reduced HE, fair sized clearance stand upstairs with loads of avene skincare, camera accessories and memory cards also model me, also had SEL for cupcakes but none left. No L'oreal bags. A few GWPs downstairs as you go in on a stand in the centre of skincare aisle iykwim.

Wrexham retail park. ~ no reduced HE, clerance stand towards back of the store, couple of gillette items (not mega cheap ones though still £1.xx) mostly suncare again. No l'oreal bags.

Your aunt needs to be a member of the Health Club, the over 60's discount is part of that.

Hello well spent to boots today and got the puple NO7 thing.

Just to let everyone know, the £5 vocher off NO7 P & P does not work on clearance items. I tried it today and ended up paying for my three items. Cost £6ish, was hoping it would only cost a £1 ah well worth a try:o.

All the dental stuff is 3 4 2 so got OH a toothbrush and two bottles of mouthwash.

No reduced HE, they had ran out of the olay face wash, so ended up buying ROC facials wipes for £1.86 with voucher.

Johnsons stuff is still reduced.
No gilette or Lynx reduced.

All this is in the M'brough branch.

You can join instore, there should be some forms at the pharmacy counter
I don't know if you can do it over the phone but it's worth ringing CS to find out.

It just depends on how the SA scans the items. If they just override and put "beauty" or whatever, the till doesn't recognize the items as p&p (EDIT: I mean no7, lol) so the voucher won't work. I got two body polishes at 2.26 each and an after-sun gel at 96p, used one no7 voucher and paid 48p for the lot.
