Hooray got my first pinkie today, havnt been bootsing for ages (at least 2 weeks)

Managed to get the Olay Definity GWP with Definity Illuminating cleanser £5.82 paid at managed tills, they did not bat an eye.:j :j

Also picked up lots of Mcleans toothpaste reduced to 64p and Oral B toothbrushes at 69p.

Still no sign of putting sets.:mad: :mad:

Popped into Barrhead tiny branch - they had about a dozen foundations on glass stand at front doors, almond was marked down to £3.50, rest were £7 - tan and a darker one. All too dark for my skin so left it.

Hi - was wondering if the facial is totally free?? Also is it done in private or in the store with customers milling around?? I just used the scrub and it's lovely. Not sure of the price for the full size, I expect it is quite pricey but you don't need much of it so should last ages. Many thanks x

Totally and absolutely free :j She used the Dr Andrew Weil range which is for sensitive skin, so I had cleanser, calming mask, toner, eye serum, face serum, moisturiser, lip balm and hand cream!
I think a facial usually has a £15 booking fee which is then redeamable against anything in the range - this voucher makes it free.
no hard sell either, which I was a bit disapointed about as I had prepared all sorts of excuses as to why I could not buy anything :rotfl:
It was done in the store but I went in the morning and it wasn't too busy, she made me feel very comfortable and if nothing else it gave passers-by a laugh seeing me sitting there in my green face mask!
It is very expensive (Dr Weil day cream £44) but Outrageous_Monkey told me that boots often have points or deals on it, so I shall wait and see, when I've finished my No 7 stash :eek:

I believe its backbiting like this that will get all the threads closed down in the end, and thats not aimed at any single poster, before I get shot down in flames for it.


On topic, anyone know any good products at BOOTS to stop my Husbands horrendous snoring?

I have to agree with minimoneyme - only earplugs can help in my experience (or a different room : even better!:rotfl: ). The cheapest place to buy earplugs is ebay and I find them better than the foamy Boots ones that I have tried before.

some of you and your snide little remarks like this are exactly why half these argument start in the first place, sandra im sorry but if youve got something to say at least have the common decency to pm me and say rather than spread snide posts all ova the board and keep refering to post i and others have made on refugees. you dont even post over there so how u feel u can comment ona situation you havent been party to for a while is beyond me and fankly im sick of it

YMC - I am sorry if you feel that I have made a "snide remark" - I thought I was quoting a remark that had been made by yourself, though I didn't name you, and referred to you as "someone".

Do you not think it was hurtful to intimate that all those who posted on Grabbit had nothing else in their lives but look for cheap shampoo? Sorry if it was meant as a compliment, but I didn't read it like that.

If I have misconstrued your intention, I apologise profusely, but I can't find an element of praise in your statement, which to me sounded disparaging - so please enlighten me.

As I have Breast Cancer, and my husband is disabled and suffers from Multiple System Atrophy, I do have more than enough to worry about than cheap shampoo, but I find the friendliness, harmony and helpfulness of the Grabbit posts takes my mind off the weary drudge of Real Life.

Also, you obviously didn't read the many posts I made on Refugees, and the reason I stopped posting was because of what I, and many others, felt - that we were intruding.

But I did continue to read the posts and, when I thought relevant, thanked the poster - up to the Last Post.

Sorry forgot to also say my local boots had a stand full of reduced herbal essence shampoo reduced to a 22p, typical they bring them out now when the 100 points offer has ended, I searched high and low for them when the offer was on, and my local said if they are not out they have all gone (what liars).:mad:

Hi YMC

Sandra wasn't spreading snide posts all over the board. Sandra made a comment about life and it's problems that I think most people on here can relate too.

& why didn't you take your own advice and pm Sandra
