    hi all

    tried the sanctuary gwp today but got charged at the normal tills, does it go through free with anything? then tried the olay gwp on its own but beeped so no luck there either, can you get this with a small purchase?

    got some aftersun which is half price at the mo, not a good shop

    next tried boots on the retail park had 3 small shops just over £5, but when i asked for no7 voucher i was told they had ran out, is there anyway i could get these later?

    someone please help brighten my day

    Just managed the Sanc glitch with charcoal masks but didn't qualify for any points! Not sure if that is normal. Fingers crossed they arrive.

    boots vouchers...of course:D

    What are you like! So very easily pleased I see :rotfl: . Can't spend the points quick enough so no vouchers, I'll tell peeps that much though I expect some MOC/voucher joke at least.

    Hi Everyone

    Jemclajess - glad to see you managed to get your foundation. Hope you & sally06 recvd my msg which I posted late last nite.

    Managed to get a bargain in our local today:-

    Bought Reduced Amazon Forest Range (Brazil Nut & vanilla)

    Body Butter, Body wash and the Body scrub and surprisingly

    the Body scrub went through as a £0.01. Very pleased I was -

    I decided to try it again but no such luck - paid for it with my points.

    Came home and received my .com order for the NO7 gwp items (not the Sanctuary one) my mens GWP had a expired points voucher and my S&G product didn't have the coupon in it either. Phoned Cust services and they credited me with 600 points which compensates for the points I spent today.

    I think I have had a good Boots day today. Shame I can't decide what to spend my Perkies on.

    hi dee:D well done for getting the body scrub for 1p:T I wish I'd bought some now;) strange how the glitch didn't work when you bought a second one:confused:

    I haven't recieved my dotcom order yet. Fingers crossed it arrives soon. I was a bit (well, very actually) disappointed when I read mel's post about there not being a voucher in the sanctuary GWP:rolleyes:

    Hi, I think if you go into another Boots with your reciepts and explain what happened they should be able to give you three vouchers.
    I've only heard of one persono having success with the sanctuary gwp instore, so seems like it maybe a bit of a dead end.:confused:
    hth

    I found the Ymea in a store in East Yorkshire, in date until 09/2010 so no idea why it's reduced. 45p each and 3 for 2 so it works out.......erm......very cheap.:o Rubbish at maths.

    Sorry to hear about your Nan.

    I dont think its the p&p foundation which is reduced its the stay perfect foundation. I made that mistake at the weekend.:rolleyes:


    The one I got is definitely Protect and Perfect foundation, staring at it right now, new ivory, reduced sticker says £7.00, £2.00 to pay with voucher. I did tryt to be super cheeky and use my 250 points voucher from the pink GWP No 7 thang but computer said noooooooooo.

  • Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    I'm all excited (it doesn't take much :o).

    I had a fab shop in Boots today. I bought the Olay Definity Cleanser - brightening cream cleanser - normal price £7.82 but currently reduced to £5.82. With purchasing this cleanser I got a £5 off No. 7 coupon - but even better I got 2 free gifts with purchase!!

    1st - Largish Green box which says "Your free gift worth £35 when you buy any Olay Definity Moisturiser

    Contents look ok too -

    Olay Definity Anti-Ageing Cream 15ml
    Olay Definity Deep Nourishing night cream 15ml
    Olay Definity Serum 7ml
    Boss Eau de Parfum 2ml
    Silver compact mirror
    Silver make up brush
    Silver perfume atomiser

    2nd - Make up size black bag decorated with deep red roses - decorated with ribbon going round it labeled "Olay Regenerist". Says "Free gift worth £35 when you spend £20 or more on Olay Regenerist products".

    Contents look ok too -

    Olay Regenerist Daily Serum 2 x 15ml
    Olay Regenerist Night Recovery moisturiser 15ml
    Max Factor colour adapt foundation natural 15ml
    Max Factor Nailfinity See through ivory 10ml
    Black mirror
    Nail file

    Cashier thought both shouldn't be free ( and he was probably right!!) but when he asked manager she said "if it scans as free then thats fine!!!". I was cheeky enough to get another cleanser with the same 2 gifts again from the same cashier - who even served me with a smile lol!!

    Even the receipt shows Olay Cleanser £5.82 with both GWP as 0.00.

    snipped...

    I was suprised therefore to read that someone was complaining that a glitch had finished because people were too obvious about it and talking about sending private messages to each other. I thought that this site was to help each other to save money not to help only the people that you like.
    Hi, it wasnt meant to come across like that...... we have to remember to be subtle in our posts when a glitch is found to make sure everyone has a chance to order. Hope this clears up your confusion.

    This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.
