Hi that happens alot, you need to sign in go to the healthclub section, untick the box and then rejoin. This should then be ok. Let me know if you get stuck or need help.

3 pack cream eggs have disappeared from my regular store in Aberdeen today and meal deals have gone up to £3.34, I know it's dearer in London but is £3.34 now the "out of London" price?

I got couple of meal deals in bristol today and paid £2.99 each.

I got two Extracts minis and used both vouchers (H&B mag and ACM) on each, separate transactions on SS tills.

Extracts mini body butter £2.45 **SAVE 1/3** = £1.63
2 x 150pts voucher = 300pts
Total spent £3.26 with 600 pts back :T

Hiya - I went to Broadmead on Friday and it was terrible. I got a puttng set and that was it!!! No Vichy GWP there and only a few No7 accessories mostly in old packaging at full price. The clearance shelf still had the same overpriced rubbish on it as well - it's about time they reduced some of that tat abit more!!! I won't be bothering to go there again for a while!!!! May go to Cribbs later this week!

I wouldn't buy more than I would use in a month, just in case it has a short date on it. Of course, a few of us in Jan got ones the expired in Feb, so maybe they were just clearing out stock that was about to expire and have newer things in now. Sorry, there's no way to know for sure what you'll get. You could always return it if you don't mind lugging it to a store (I never return things via post; the warehouse messes things up too often).

After the w/end find it quite difficult to catch up lol! And, generally, am reading backwards...:o Have not been able to share my latest shops as was quite busy and could not access the PC...

As many have found, with the restrictions on the use of Perkies on clearence items, one has had to resort on using them on accessories (which some stores stock and some not!)... During last wk in 2 out of 4 stores visited the shelves of No7 clearence had visible signs Perkies could not b used against these items... I tried, tho, 2 use my Perkie on 2 pencil eyeliners (as these had no prices on them and which I found were around £3.xx) but the till said NO, NO! Bless the SA she did try to find out why the till was not accepting the Perkie and asked her manager who, initially, said this was due to using it against a product that was less then £5 (but I had 2 eyeliners ) and then coz this was reduced (finally!)...:rolleyes:

I was quite wary re having a few Perkies and not being able to use them on accessories as either these would not b stocked in the stores I visited or coz, as we all use them against the same items, the stores would run out of them:eek: So this is what I used my Perkies against (and used MIL card so 10% disc ):

No7 Compact Mirrors @ £5.87 - 10% to pay 28p * 3;
No7 File & Buffer set @ 4.89 so FREE!;
No7 Credit Card holders @ £5.87 - 10% to pay 28p * 3;
No7 Moisture Gloves @ £4.89, again FREE! (tho in 2 other stores these were priced @ £5.89!:eek: );
No7 Glasses Case @ £6 - disc to pay 40p * 2;

Went for the above accessories as these would look nice on a No7 hamper and cost me as less as poss!;) I also purchased the following:

No7 Bath Sumptous @ £7.80 - disc - Perkie to pay £2.02 (used the current GWP 250pts which had previously been wombled my DD! Do try to train her, lol! :cool: );
Pantene Conditioner 400ml on clearence for 73p (used £1off from baby mailing so Mr B's logic being pd 27p cash to take it away);
Sanctuary Sento Gift Set on clearence @ £4.89 (used the £3off voucher passed on by a friend!);
Olay Definity Cleanser @ £5.82 + GWPs * 2 (had a manufacturer voucher 4 this so thought this would cost me nothing to get the GWPs); here, I was using the SS but my voucher was not being accepted and the SS SA took me to a manned till!!:eek: :eek: :eek: I thought 'Oh no, there we go...':eek: but kept my composure... was prepared to faint a huge surprise if confronted re GWPs... The SA looked @ them but scanned them thru... Phew!!! :j That was close!!! A word of advice... the manufacturer coupons (@ least @ the store I used it @) do not seem to go thru @ SS tills which prompts the SS SA to come over (the SS SA did try to override this when coupon checked but still the till did not accept it... don't know if the SA didn't know how to do it or the SS system rejected it so one would have to pay for the items on a manned till... );
Extracts Minis (using the Mag 150pts as the ACM has completely stopped issueing these 4 me);

On clearence shelves not much to report as Perkies don't work on No7 clearence items; The following is what I saw:

Quite a few of the Amazon/ Mediterranean bath/body stuff reduced in all 4 stores I visted...
Sanctuary Sento Gift Sets @ £4.89;
TS red hair root colouring tubes @ £1;

Also 1 of the stores I visited had a few of the No7 Make Up Palette @ £17.12 but no signs of the other Xmas Gift Sets... Also recently I've noticed no Putting Sets about...

Again, apologies for the long post...:o
