Reductions on them already wow...... Coming off the planner means AFAIK) that they will no longer be stocking them in that store. I hope you got lots;)

Talk about in the planner out the planner, good for you and other locals though. Thanks for posting

Thanks pollsdolls-thought that might be what it meant-just really surprised as theyre sooo new

Didnt actually get any yesterday :eek: but went back today and got 4 (still loads left) Paid in points (133 points each) and figure they will make nice wee gifts with the "free" extracts body wash
Also got four of the Botanics hand cream (2 day and 2 night) which were reduced to 43 points each-so all in all quite pleased

edit-Congratulations rosie-glad alls well :T and what a great weight (not sure his mum will agree right now tho!)

Woo hoo, had a good shop today as toddler was asleep in the buggy

Used SS till and this was my shop:

I got an extracts body butter collection:
This one!

Came up with 1/3rd off so £4.56,
Used both the ACM & Mag coupons so 300 points back :T

No 7 Radiance Revealed Exfoliator
Used Perkie So paid £2.75
Used coupn from GWP for 250 points :T

Also got a NC Neck pillow £1.47
And Hugo Boss Shave Gel 10p :eek:
This One

Only bought one tho as my BF has loads of gilette from last month and only shaves once a week! :rolleyes:

2 bottles of diet coke £1.60

Total spent £10.48
Points rec 562
And there was a nice chap standing near the SS tills who I asked for my perkie and he went and fetched one without even looking at my receipt :j

I know I could have split the transactions to get two perkies but couldn't be bothered to faff around.

For anyone who wants to use both Extacts coupons this is what I did:

Wait till the end of transaction and press 'finish and pay'
Touch coupon, then scan your coupon.
post coupon in the slot, then repeat for the next one. It worked for me :j

HTH

BTW, the extracts mini collection are not actually on the shelf cos they are not on the planner, friendly staff member went to get one for me... (She's actually my Mum :rotfl: )

I think they last for years if unopened, and even opened if stored in their box out of direct sunlight. I remember someone last year posting some good information on this. But can't think who it was. Perhaps Sarah skint? Does anyone else remember?

I remember some info being posted too but not sure who it was.
I was under the impression that perfume lasts for at least two years or maybe more, if unopened and stored at room temperature in the dark.
Once opened it should last another two years if kept in the same conditions, ie: in its box and out of sunlight. (try telling this to my DD who opens every bottle and puts it out on display to admire)
Spray bottles are best so that the perfume doesn't become contaminated by any oils or germs on your fingers when applying.

My motto is "when it's opened, use it and don't save it for best" We are worth it

A girl after my own heart. I used to save expensive perfume, and clothes for 'best'. Then when I was diagnosed with Cancer, I thought, why wait for best? I can die wating and I deserve the best.

So I started my lovely expensive perfumes, daily even if I am only moppping the floor.

I also went out and booked that cruise that I was always saying I would go on 'one day'
