Has anyone used the extracts vouchers on the mini body butter ? ( just I think the voucher says extracts bathing )

I've been in 5 Boots stores today - and haven't spent money or points in any of them .

I'm bored of trawling aisles, and I can't even summon up any enthusiasm to buy essentials to get perkies. So apart from my teeny store near work, I'll be giving them a miss for a while I think.

Got the No7 reduced foundation for £2 with perkie.:j V happy as it's the one I use BUT was told its because they are no longer making it.

Also spotted 1 lonely mag behind the counter so I asked if I could have it;)

Off to get more of the extracts range tomorrow. I'm going to use the ones I get to make a gift set for a bday pressie:D

This is taken from the first post on the thread - is this what you mean?

How many free magzines can i get with my advantage card?
You can get as many as you want but only 1 per transaction.

Thanks Yeah thought they would make good novelty prizes :rotfl: Going to do a HUGE No 7 hamper too with all my bargains, as the man that organises its daughter died last year of leukemia (early 20s -heartbreaking) and most of the proceeds go to charity in her name..

Thanks for the info huni and happy Bootsing to you too-off to get ready!...xxx

Terrible. We lost our Dad to Leukaemia and it's an awful disease.

But if you need any help with hampers, just give me a yell x

Hi
Yes I know it's 1 per transaction so you can get as many as you want in total.. but I was refering to the points vouchers inside saying 1 per person x

Been to Cardiff Queen Street and Llanishen this weekend

Queen Street had a clearance section by the tills at the back of the store (by make-up) I didn't really look but noticed No7 bits, Toni & Guy and Nivea DNAge. Lots of Olay GWP dotted around skincare aisles, also noticed a new section which I think was for that posh brand that is giving out free samples in a box, La Poshe something or other! No NC cupcakes left but there was one pillow. They also had reduced Sanctuary body butters for 55p. The S&G shelves were really empty/messy so obviously a lot of people buying stuff at 1/3 off

Llanishen had a small clearance section with skincare, waterproof wallets and Radox soap refills for 97p. Also had Paris Hilton giftsets reduced to about £6. Noticed reduced SELs for toothpaste, NC (but nothing left), aromatherapy and bath salts (I can't remember what brand but they were ginger scented) down from £7.xx to £1.90.

I noticed that the exfoliators that are free with perkie were in 3 different places in Llanishen! Two places at the No7 stand and also in the skincare aisle. They also had two different SELs...but I noticed that Radiance Revealed exfoliators with the more expensive SEL looked different to the one I picked up from the other shelf. The expensive one had visible grains in it whilst the cheaper one looked the same as the No Grains exfoliator but in blue. I hope this makes sense!

I remember someone posting before that it might not be possible to buy JML products with points. I bought a Ped Egg today with points so it works

Could someone post a photo of what the putting set looks like please? I have noticed posts saying that they have these in both Swansea and Cardiff but I can never find them

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.

It's the same in our large store skibster - amongst haircare like bobbles, slides etc, but more often than not - on clearance,

I went to my local store and bought a few essentials and got a Perkie. So I went to buy the No 7 Stay Perfect Foundation Compact for £6.35 and to use the Perkie. However the young assistant said they were told not to take them on clearance items. However the other SA ( who I had a run in with a few weeks ago ) said she would check. She then came back with the senior SA who said that they had been told by Head Office this morning not to accept them on any reduced items. I asked her to try but she would not as she the tills had not yet been adjusted. i.e.:- the till would have scanned it!!
I just smiled sweetly and said I would go back to the larger store on Monday where they accepted the voucher for the same item yesterday. So ladies and gents look out for this problem.
