I suppose thinking about it, the No. 7 girls work to sales targets and are probably on commission. Maybe the vouchers reduce the actual 'cash' they take therefore making it harder for the girls to take thier daily or weekly targets.

But has been said many times before - if Boots don't want you to use the vouchers, why issue them at all?

I was served by a store manager on Saturday, I purposely went to her as I was wanting to use a lot of vouchers and I know she allows them. I told her how awkward some SA's are, she said she can't understand it as it is all money in their tills, it goes through as a sale and at the end of the day, they all work for the same company!!

By the way, there are some P&P beauty serums reduced to £8.63 at Coningsby, I bought 3 and there were still 4 left on the shelf. No chance of a GWP with them though unless you want to make the sale up to £18 as the till comes up with the reeduced price., they did have some other reduced No7 stuff though such as sorbets and things, £7-£8, had quite a bit of clearance for a tiny store, but nothing exciting that I can remember, Med and Sanctuary still full price. HTH

Can any of you remember last Mother's Day when they had those lovely round P&P sets with such a lot of things in for around £20? They were like gold dust to get. I wonder if they will be doing them again? Might be worth hanging on to a few perkies just in case. I managed to get one, well a couple actually, but my friend wanted one for her Mother, so I let her have one of mine. Haven't opened mine yet, come to think of it, can't remember where it is!!

Snap I have 2 on the top of the wardrobe:o unopened.

the p&p vouchers I had were burning a hole on my purse so did tea and sneaked back out before and topped my phone up x 2 to get a couple of perkies ( although rescue dog did kindly offer me a couple of hers x) to get a couple of P&P hand creams. DH was pleased with his free p&p eye cream he didn't batter an eyelid x told you i would be in the good books

Polls your cupcakes look fab x

Ha ha, I had trouble finding it last week, they've moved it - I know this info isn't any good to you now as he will be back home, but its on the back wall, to the left if you stand with your back to the food chillers. There was no reduced on Saturday when I went it though.

Hi honey. Will have a proper look at it later, does seem really cheap. I think the same product is on offer at Boots too, saw something like it yesterday. Might as well use my horde of points there.

Will the Dental Care 3 4 2 stop tomorrow too? I've now noticed that whatever is on 3 4 2 normally has items with reduced SEL's in that period. A few months ago when haircare was on 3 4 2, a lot of things had reduced SEL's a week before the 3 4 2 ended. The same then happened with mens toileteries next time round, and it has happened for dental care this time. So keep your eyes peeled on whatever is on 3 4 2 next time round. I can't believe I know this, too much Bootsing!

Ended up chucking away 3 x haircare and 5 x skincare as did not go to town today. Oh well.

I was there from 2.55 until 3.35p.m. You know the scanario-going round and round!! I even spoke to the Security Guard as he kept following me. I told him I had loads of vouchers to spend so to ignore me which he did!! Did not get much there. I tried to cook pancakes for my daughter before we went ( she is 23 ) but managed to get the mixture everywhere and the pancakes were rubbish as I realised we have not frying pan as OH took it when he left last year-so I cooked then in thw wok. So bought a new pan in Matalan for a £5.00 and DD asked her Dad to come round and cook her come. He did and they were lovely-with marshmallows, maple syrup and bananas. Quite a nice store though. May see you there some time!
