Today I got 2 x no7 no grains exfoliator reduced to £4.80 so FREE with a pinky/purkie!

HAS ANYBODY USED THIS NO7 NO GRAINS EXFOLIATOR?????

I just can't imagine how its going to exfoliate without any scybby bits in there to scrub with!!

I have used it and love it. It's very gentle, but effective. Try a small amount on the back of your dry hand rub it in until it goes really stiff, moments after this it should revert to a slippy liquid, rinse with water and you'll see how well it's exfoliated.

Lollyred - so sorry for your awful afternoon, hopefully the nice peeps on here have cheered you up a bit.

Moyilla - fully sympathise with you and your little one, ds did the samething about a year ago made me_pale_ too!

I went to a really small Boots today that I've never been to before and managed to get 2 Stay Perfect New Ivory Foundations for free using 2 perkies. Was really pleased as they were for a friend who had been unable to get any. Tried to get the compact foundation, but it was still £6.35ish. I also managed to get 2 bottles of the Naked Handwash for 98p.

Later I dragged OH into the main Boots he promptly ran off to HMV as I managed to womble 9 perkies:o:D felt like a complete tramp picking one up off of the floor, luckily the rest were in baskets!! So decided to have a spree:

1 x NC Apple Body Polisher 61p
1 x mini Extracts Body Butter £2.xx
1 No7 no grains exfoliator £4.30
1 x King of Shaves Gel £1.00
2 x Bite & Sting Relief £0.69 each
1 x Glasses Case £0.50
2 x T&G MM Pomade £0.50

Used 150 points ACM, 150 points Mag, Perkie, Paid £5.xx and earnt a new perkie.

4 x No7 No Grains Exfoliator
3 x P&P Aftersun Facial Balm
2 x No7 Facial Tan

All free with the wombled perkies.

Oh and my .com Sanctuary stuff arrived today (thanks OP):T

Do any of you ladies have an 11 year old daughter/niece/granddaughter etc that wear's make-up?

DS1 has a fancy dress birthday party tomorrow night and the birthday girl has requested CD's or make-up!!!
With all that has happened I totally forgot about a present :eek: so can anyone reccommend 11 year old friendly make-up range from Boots? I'm still amazed that she wears make-up (or maybe I'm behind with the times :rotfl: )

Rubes a very similar thing happened to me but not with a boots mirror, I had small magnifying mirror and after I had done my eyebrows in the nice bright sun I put it down face up:o A bit later on I could smell a burning smell and the sun had shone on the mirror which had reflected onto the side of the setee and it had burnt a hole in it about the size of a 10p piece. Definately learnt my lesson from this:o ( Fortunately we were in, I would dread to think what would have happened if we had gone out) I never reported mine to the insurance due to it only being very minor damage but I do not think the insurance would disbelieve you .

Boots SA told me deffo mistake on No7 foundations they were still going through as £3.xx but HAD to override to correct prices ( of half price only), fortunately I got mine prior to my store being notified yesterday:p


Thanks Am xx

Sorry to hear about your damage too. Definitately learnt my lesson too blooming scarey.

In our large store yesterday all the reduced No7 foundations had being hidden away. The shelves were empty and there was a sign on the shelf saying if you wanted any of the foundation you had to ask a No7 SA.

So obviously I left it and will go to one of the friendly stores:D

Guys I dashed down to Boots today at 3pm, after reading (i think sarnd's post, soz if wrong), hoping to get some urban decay reduced.... No chance, not a thing in sight........Thought I would make the trip worth my while & get some reduced No 7 stuff with my vouchers.... Again no chance, massive sign above the clearance section saying No 7 voucher not accepted with clearance or reduced items:(

To top it all, I then went to Forster Square Branch just to get a top up for my son's phone..................Saw the No 7 hand cream at a tenner. I thought i would just try it to see if it was reduced, but it wasn't, so ended up spending a fiver anyway.....

At least they had a load of the new H & B mags, so got 2 for vouchers, & a couple more purkies.....

It's pretty hard knowing what to spend them on around here.

They have got some of the foundation stuff for £7, but I have always found it really difficult to find the right foundation, & I am 45 now:eek: So I tend to stick to the 1 from L'oreal that I love....

Thankyou so much for whoever first posted the sanctuary glitch, I got my order today. Just need to decide where to stash it!

Night All, going to watch Johnathan Ross, then work 2moz, & thankyou to you all for opening a whole new world for me.

Robster xx

Went to Westfield Derby today, clearance was rubbish, nothing worth having.
They did have quite a few of the Olay GWP's though and some of the Definity cleanser.
I haven't seen it mentioned on here but don't forget if you are shopping in a Boots near M&S, pop in for a hot drink and a piece of cake for £2. The cake itself normally sells for more than £2. Only after 2pm though.
