    The sels in my local yesterday had been £3.50 and £3.18 for the liquid and the compact foundation. Today the sels had been removed, so it looks likely that the price may have gone back up to £6-£7 I'm afraid :rolleyes:
    I didn't get it price checked though, so it's worth a try- sorry you;ve missed out Amelia's Mummy :(

    Seems a bit odd putting the price back up after 1 day- how could they not realise that by reducing a No 7 product to under a fiver that ppl would be getting them free with perkies?!

    I bought the "new ivory" one yesterday. Tried it on last night and my face looked like a satsuma :o :rotfl: Couldn't believe how orange it was :rolleyes: :confused:
    Really? i have this colour as my skin is as fair as you can get and find its really subtle, :cool:

    You made me feel better now:p

    The reduction may have been a mistake a bit like the perfume one that was only on for a day or so last year. Still waiting for the reductionsin the accessories though , still full price here for the old ones:rolleyes:

    i must say i didnt like the no7 compact powder/liquid foundation. I picked up the palest and i looked a bit 'drag' it felt like wearing stage make-up !

    so if you missed out be happy you didnt waste time buying pants make-up ;)
    Bow Ties ARE cool :cool:

    My face was definitely tangoed :o:o
    I don't often wear foundation so maybe I was applying it wrongly :o I only used a tiny bit and tried to blend it with a sponge and my fingers, but it was still much much darker than my skin.
    Think I will try mixing it with moisturiser to try and dilute the colour :confused:

    Didn't manage to get out Bootsing yesterday as my friend & her little boy came to visit (last minute!) & we went to the park. Seems I may have missed the No7 foundation & No7 compact at £3.** - oh well off out today & they'll still only be £2 with a perkie so I'll still be happy! Will report back later.

    I read, with relief, that the foundations have gone up in price again :j
    [snipped ...]

    They're not unlike bride's knickers. :D;)

    Sorry Liverbird, I've had to go back to viewing 20 posts per page :o It's TMI all at once for an old bird like me ;)

    Re the Vichy, avoid any Vichy foot deodorants that have aloe vera in them peeps. Even though I only paid 0.05p for mine (clearance lol) it smells foul :confused:;)

    The ACM Voucher is for the New Extracts Bathing Range so I don't think it will work on lipbalm. :confused:

    I have tried the new acm with lip balm and it worked 'with no beeps' to those of you who have enquired. :T

    Early trip to Tamworth this morning. Foundation compact marked at £6.xx, bottles SEL still showing £14.xx but didn't get them scanned as luckily I have picked up enough to last me for 12 months!

    All old style accessories and brushes still at full price - had them checked out.

    Olay GWP green and black box went through with Regenerist Cleanser @ £5.82 and I had 500 extra points on Regenerist from a mailing

    Picked up Extracts Bergamot Bath Soak for £2.61 and used 150 point ACM from last week and 150 mag voucher. ACM not giving me any more Extracts vouchers :mad:

    Couldn't spot any more bargains today
