Managed to get the No7 artist pallet 75% off £17.** also got No7 wipes used perkie and 250 pts voucher and the SA put the GWP through as it wouldnt scan.
Not many bargains to found at the moment except toothpaste.

Well done! The London stores seem to be pants at the moment

I haven't been keeping up so sorry if any of this is repeated:

- the Original Source scrubs are reduced to 97p from 1.98. Lovely scent. I think this is throughout the range, however only a few items online are available.

- tried using the perkie on old style N7 accessories but the price was not reduced (this was a nail set for £14.xx) so left it. I thought the reduction on the old style (the black quilted ones) was nationwide.

- got the new packaging N7 gloves but though they were marked 4.87 it scanned at 5.87 so had to pay .87.

- someone reported the travel accessories such as luggage tags might be reduced in the near future due to changing packaging. Unfortunately, I asked for a price check on a dual currency purse and it was still coming up as £8.xx.

- have you seen or received the roc voucher? I won't post it here, but if you haven't seen it you can search "roc" at the discount thread.

- tried getting a foundation with the perkie. The SEL was 10.xx. I asked for a price check since have been reading people getting foundations reduced, and it came up £6.30, however the perkie did not scan. I know the perkie does not work on reduced stuff, but I though it was only when it had the "clearance" sticker, not when the price comes up reduced. Off course I left it. The SA had a few N7 powder boxes by the tills which had a clearace sticker for £2.50, I guess someone tried getting them with the perkie but left them when it didn't work.

- had a problem paying with points on a meal deal. I also got other stuff and after seeing the total of £12, asked to pay with points. The till then deduced £15 and the receipt showed no meal deal... Never had this problem before, but I had never got anything else with points , just the meal. Watch those receipts.

mimi...

did u get the ones in the new packaging or the old packaging?

tia

VAZ119, it was the new packaging which looks really cheap and nasty. It's black at the back and white on the front. The old packaging was much more glam. Worked just fine on SS tills. HTH.

If I see a pint of milk reduced, a sandwich reduced and some fruit reduced, and got the lot, would it be classed as a meal deal? If so, it would have been wicked. Milk was 30p, Sandwich was 75p and Fruit was 35p, so the total would have been £1.50ish. Was going to give it a go, but decided to get it with my points. Saturday afternoons are always great for reduced items. Shame they don't do cheese and onion sandwiches at my local, cos if they had been reduced I would have got the whole lot.

Hiya, You might know this already, but I'm pretty sure you can use still get meal deals when you pay on points as I did this the other day .

Hi everyone. I hadn't really planned any Bootsing today but ended up having a mystery trip around Milton Keynes. I couldn't believe how bad the main shopping centre shop was though, one tiny reduced section and I had to hunt hard to find that! I thought my local Luton was bad but I stand corrected.
Anyway, I finally had a go at some ss tills which was an experience! I got a couple of Colgate toothbrushes at 67p and a tongue cleaner at 98p. I got the S&G gwp bag with a purchase and spent a perkie and £1.40 on a mens no7 product, I also used a 250pts coupon. I also spent a perkie and 60p on a concealor brush.
The 2nd retail park shop wasn't much better. Got another S&G gwp bag and spent a couple more perkies on nail buffers.
Then in Bletchley I found the no7 gloves but no compacts which I would have preffered. The store had a Comic Relief stall set up with the prizes being gwp's and I won a L'Oreal one which I was VERY excited about as I'd been considering spending real cash to get one!! I bought some perfume with points and tried to buy some magazines with points but the till said no so I paid cash and earned a perkie...........................Plenty of Olay gwp's in all shops but nothing else that I could see. No extract mini's either.

Ooops, sorry for the long post!!
