    You are getting a new manager in your local Sally, one from up my way. It was his last day here today, so probably starts Monday?

    thanks for letting us know:) What's he like? I hope he is not as clued up (or reads this thread) on glitches as his predesessor (spelling?)

    Re the Sanctuary, I can only tell you what the nice Young Lad did!! Re the Olay, it has a black satin ribbon round the outside saying Olay Regenerist, and then the label says "Free Gift worth £35 when you spend £20 or more on Olay Regenerist, exclusive to Boots".

    It contains 2 x 15 ml Regenerating Serum
    1 x 15ml Continuous Night Recovery Moisturiser
    Max Factor Colour Foundation
    Max Factor Nailfinity See Through Ivory
    Black Mirror
    Nail File

    Blimey, I must be the most popular vistor to Unhappy People with my lovely choice of cheer-up gifts!! :D

    xx

    these were around last year. I only managed to get one as they were very popular:) well done on your shop BTW. You and Dee sound like you have so much fun bootsing...and wombling:)

    the little red olay box has the £29 face cream in it,the one thats allegedly better than creams costing £100+(their words)not mine.
    the green box only goes thru with items from the defininty range,the cheapest being the face wash.
    if your local store does the skin care analysis it is well worth having it done,i had mine done and was told that my skin was very dehydrated despite using excessive amounts of p&p serum, moisturisers and the whole of the olay definity range!!!!!!(though not all at once...lol...)
    but on the plus side i was told that i had the skin age of 25..am 34 so well pleased!!
    there was no hard sell whatsoever and i was given samples to take home and try and a coupon for 100 extra points if i buy any any of the following brands
    vichy,la roche posay,avene,boots expert,a derma,aveeno,e45,eucerin,oilatum,norwegian formula,simple derma,and vaseline..hth..


    green box only goes thru with items from the defininty range,the cheapest being the face wash.

    so does that mean you can get it with the face wash? just seen it but it said when spend £20 spend so i left it, tia

    hi all, had a bad bootsing day today, complete tat in the stores i went to and all i managed to get was s&g heel cream as was 1/3 off and essentials to get purplies...hardly anything reduced on SEL apart from dental....dove body wash was reduced to 56p last week and back up to original price today and BOGOF, imagine if it had stayed at the price and BOGOF!!! wishful thinking....

    asked at both stores about the no7 foot and hand creams (orange packaging) but both were still full price...sorry didnt check the foundation
    but did managed to get clean and clear blackhead cleanser for £2.20 reduced from £2.90 and 100 points from mums ac

    saw the sanctuary sets but full price! some fcuk and mediterranean reduced but not much and that kind of stuff goes to the clearance store anyway. Oh yh i noticed time delay things with £2 offf e.t.c Mr B is very clever doing that AFTER the wrinklie!!!

    pretty much boring bootsing! wish i'd got more purplies when there was the free p&p handcream! that wouldve been better than getting them now with not much to use them on....has anyone seen no7 reduced anywhere in east london?
    oh and saw the olay tiny box with red ribbon and went to the till and it came up as £24.xx !!!!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    happy bootsing everyone!! hope you all have better days than mine!!!

    and 1 essentials aromatherapy sampler kit down from 9.xx to 1.96

    NC stuff is being wrapped as we speak as eldest has a birthday party tommorrow.

    I haven't seen it for a while, but I remember getting loads of jewellery bargains from sedley place when they had a big sale on 2 years ago:D

    I bought a necklace at Boots last year on clearance. Don't know if they still carry jewelry, but at the time it was located with the hair clips, little hand bags and other accessories.
  • I walked out of Boots a free woman on Thursday, had to take daughter to buy some No7 foundation and as I had a £2.50 voucher off of something found some Nivea wipes to use it and bought the foundation, great I thought no more vouchers to gain points so lets get out of here quick! Nope I got a £5 off any No 7 :eek:

    Said to daughter to find something to spend it on, she picked an eye liner pencil, paid the difference and walked out, free of the fear of not using a voucher in time or spending more to gain some points :D

    Sadly, by the time we got home the eye liner pencil was nowhere to be seen, must have dropped out of the bag :o
