    Thankyou all, popped to Boots this morning to get my purplie that I should have got yesterday, explained the situation, she looked at my receipt and said yes you should have received it, opened the till and :j :j gave me 2. How thrilled was I, went to the ACM and it gave me another P & P voucher so in the end I got 2 free hand creams with my 2 new purplies and 2 P & P vouchers. Glad I asked now.

    Make a coffee, sit down in peace and read post 1 & 2 first, then the rest of the thread. It all becomes clearer the more you do, I think everyone gets a bit snowed under at first. Then try it out in Boots a bit at a time, dont try to do too much or you will get in a mess!! Good luck and hope you enjoy it as much as we all do.

    Oh and the perkie is a purply coloured coupon for £5 off NO.7 given automatically when you spend £5 in store. Dont worry about wrinklies, they expire today.

  • Morning everyone,

    Just been to my local and had some very good shops. Had a bit of a debate with the sa regarding using skincare voucher on L'oreal mens sayin in the t & c it doesn't state not being able to use on mens, she said she understood what i was saying and we could try the voucher. We tried it and it didn't work, by this time she was getting annoyed so I just said i'll ring CS and see what they say.:mad:

    On my way out my friend spotted there was still a offer ticket out on the P & P body serum, well i turned round with it and took it straight to the till. Yep when she scanned it came up as £24.50, I said ticket says 1/2 price £12.50, so took her and showed her, she said she'll honor it. Sa said it doesn't look like a normal one, thought are you tring to say i printed it. Sa still honored it. Handed over P & p voucher and then NO 7 voucher, she said oh where did you get this from (p & p Voucher) ? I said from ACM in another store, sa said you can't use that here and you have to use it on that day, i said no you don't it has a expiry day and you cannuse it in any store. She said i'll try it. Voila. :j
    So

    Shop 1
    No 7 P & P
    £5 off P & P
    £5 off No 7
    Total to pay £2.25:T

    Shop 2 & 3
    JF serum

    2 Hairies so free

    Shop 4
    King of Shaves face scrub £1.00
    Paid £1.00 cash

    Shop 5

    No 7 P & P hand cream
    £5 off P & P
    £5 off No 7
    200 points when buy No 7 skincare
    Total to pay £0.00:rotfl: :rotfl:

    Shop 6

    John frieda shampoo £4.69
    £2.00 off hairie
    So £2.69 to pay

    Spent £5.94
    Received 212 points

    Then went into work and gave out 4 skincare vouchers as i had nothing else i needed, they were all really pleased.
    Hope everyone has a lovely day. x

    To add - if you refer to the vouchers as perkies, wrinklies and hairies instore, the staff won't have a clue what you're on about (unless they read this forum). These are names given to them by people on this thread :)

    Just checked my points coupon and it has an expiry date of the 28th February so you will have to be quick!!! I have 2 you can have if you want them. PM me and I will post them out to you first class today. HTH....

    Oh pooh! I saw some in a store, but that store ain't local to me and won't get chance to go again till next week. Oh well.

    I still have no idea what a NC Cupcake is. Is it cupcake as in little cake or am I totally losing it? Ooops!

    I think this is the cupcake they're referring to, Mimi. I've not seen any in our local shops, so have no idea of the size of them
