    Has anyone got a list of what accesories can be got with a perkie, or could people please post the accessories they have managed to get and we can put a list together ?

    I think someone said there were some pics on the Boots chat thread - haven't checked yet though :o

    Just been over to the chat thread and there are some lovely photos of some of the new No7 accessories that people have managed to use the vouchers on.

    it's a bit hypocritical for anyone on this board to call her greedy because lots of people have "stocked up" on items when they've found them cheap or reduced.

    sorry, that was a bit of rant.

    Sorry hja - I disagree - there is a difference between taking several of what you need and clearing the shelves and not giving anyone else a chance. I think it is out and out greed, the same as the people going to the 75% off sale and sweeping everything off the shelf into their basket or blocking off aisles to stop others getting anything. It's all greed, however you want to look at it.

    People should have abit of thought for others and learn to share. Everyone likes a bargain but it's nice to think of someone else at the same time isn't it. Most people on this board do think of others hence them posting when there is something of interest in certain shops instead of taking it all and keeping quiet.

    I have to agree with Angie & disagree with hja I'm afraid. there definitely is a big difference between taking several and completely clearing shelves! The other week when I went to the Reigate store & they'd clearly just restocked the clearance section and it was chocka with loads of good stuff for £1 or under I purposely only took about 3-4 of each thing I wanted leaving plenty left for others!! Actually went back a couple of days later to get a couple more bits and the shelves were bare!! Have been ever since tbh but I wouldn't feel right if I'd cleared the lot - its different if there are only a couple of something but if there are LOADS its only fair to give others a shot at getting them!! Just my opinion!

    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.

    nice to see yet another Luton bootser on the thread:T you are welcome to come along to our big meet-up that we are planning at the end of this month:D Not fixed a date to suit everyone yet. Mainly my fault, due to my hospital appts being on everyone elses day off:o

    Hi, does anyone know if they still have the no7 artists pallettes in queen street cradiff?

    There's none to be had in bristol, but going to cardiff tomoorow and could detour to Boots if they still have them

    Thanks :D


    I think Bristol has been missed out with the xmas goodies. Don't think HO likes us down here as we never get very cheap things on clearance either. Some of the clearance stuff has been on the shelf for 6 months but they won't reduce it down anymore!!!!

    I'm thinking of moving near to passion8 and rubes as they get good clearance bargains!!!!:cool:

    I totally agree with Angie. Don’t mind people grabbing bargains especially daily essentials if they have a big family, but really shouldn’t take more than what they can “consume” and not leave one item for others just because it’s cheap, and definitely shouldn’t overdo it when there’s really limited amount in the local.

    The woman I mentioned who grabbed all (>30) the no7 black purses after I told her it’s 50p, is definitely greedy rather than rude. That’s not called stocking up :confused:

    If everybody is as selfish as these people, guess this thread would turn into “look what I’ve got today” but “don’t bother coming to my local” :rolleyes:

    I feel I benefited a lot from this thread therefore I feel guilty for not contributing and just consuming, that’s why I post whatever I can to help other people out. When I desperately wanted something that I cannot find before, one kind bootser (e.g. sonee2405, by the way where are you :p ) send it to me without asking for anything in return. Now I do the same to others whenever I can. As actually when I make another bootser happy, it’s almost same as making myself happy.

    Ok, I think we had enough discussion/moaning/chatting:eek: . Let’s get back to boots business before we get told off :D:D

    BTW sarnd, there were many no7 artists pallettes in queen street cardiff on Friday afternoon, although seems half were gone from Thursday's stock. According to this speed, you definitely need to hurry up :D . I didn't see any eye and brow kit left, now regretting I didn't get one, not that I need/want it, it's just things seem so beautiful and precious when you can't have them :rotfl:

    Hi Picasso. Did you try again today to get the bag? Just wondering if I'll get that voucher if I try next week.

    Sorry if this has already been answered. Have been away & just catching up now. Manchester Arndale Centre also didn't have the bags on Thurs & said everyone had been asking about them. I fretted about the 'valid today only bit' & SA said they'd have to do something about it. Today was at Regent's Way Boots & they had the bags & it just scanned happily. Watford acm was seeing and printing double when I got the voucher so was at Trafford Centre tonight and got second bag. And the point for using it! So go and use those coupons!

    I think all the accessories work with perkies:D

    I've got the gloves, nail file & buffer compact, cleansing sponge, exfoliator, eye lash curlers and make-up sponge:)

    Do you have any pics of this please? Am planning a little bootsing in MK tomorrow and would love one of these, but not sure what I am looking for! Also gives me a good excuse to try some of the S&G range.

    Went to Hitchin today, had quite a large clearance section, finally found some elusive kids toothbrushes, just hope the boys don't mind pink :rotfl: Lots of different sun cream, self tan bits and bobs, and a few boxes of remington hair straighteners for £12. Also had adult toothbrushes, but marked up at £1.22.

    grumblybum (great name BTW:rotfl: )do you know if the hitchin store is open on a sunday? I might go for a little drive if it is:D TIA:)
