    Hi

    Thanks for this sheila54

    Would anyone happen to know if they are also doing the bonus points in store (online its 750 when you buy two products) was hoping to get Clinique Happy + something else, now, if I could also get this GWP + Points it would be fab.

    Hope someone can help

    TIA

    The online points are instead of the GWP sadly :(

    There are loads of offers on scrubs and body butters just now so it's a good time to buy and experiment to find one you like.

    Sorry, me again. Saw one of the SA's at the DEWSBURY store flouncing around with little booklets. The front of it said something like 20% OFF MINI MODE or something like that. I am sure these will be doing the rounds at all stores. Could try and get some if anyone wants any.

    Hi was she handing them out? cos they are meant to be for staff's friends and families only, each member of staff gets one booklet each, thats all, she shouldn't be givimg them out in store:naughty: hth

    I also got these vouchers and my 8 year old has had great fun with them,he folded them up so they look like a £20 note and as we were walking round tesco he kept dropping them on the floor and then walking of to a spy place so he could watch them pocket it,most of them picked it up and stuck it in their pockets without looking at it and then walking of quickly,imagine their dissapointment lol

    I've been doing this too and was wondering today if there's a limit to how many times we can do that? I'm starting to worry that they'll take my points off me.....................
    Technically your AC and the points that are on it belong to Boots so they can take them away any time. They don't do this unless your card comes under scrutiny and they feel you may have been abusing an offer, eg by using vouchers that you shouldn't have, in someone elses name, etc.

    We are only supposed to have one free mag with the AC but if you give the SA a mag and your AC the till automatically puts it through free no matter how many mags you've had previously. If Mr B really wanted to stop us having lots of free mags then he could sort his tills out, until then I wouldn't worry about it, just try not to go too mad with the vouchers, if you are worried about your points then try and keep your balance down, spend them every now and then rather than save up loads :D

    They had them by the till (customer side) in Chelmsford the other day. They looked as if they were there for the taking. I had a quick look but didn't want one.

    Hiya littleemmie

    The S&G Flake Away is indeed a scrub, it works well and smells lovely too, it comes in a mini if you want to trial it first. I use the scrub type products once a week and a body butter each time I have a bath.

    There are some scrubs in the Extracts range too, you can get them to match the body butters, same fragrances. I haven't tried them but maybe you could get a mini and give it a try.

    As you have sensitive skin maybe a handful of sugar and olive oil would make a good scrub for your legs, less chance of any reaction and very effective too, olive oil also smells quite pleasant. Alternatively you could use almond oil or baby oil if you want something more scented.

    There seems to be a few Amazon and Mediterranean products on clearance lately, you might find some scrubs and body butters there.

    The Sanctuary Sugar Scrubs smell lovely, there's a GWP of a pack of body butters (minis) at the moment if you spend £10 or more on Sanctuary.

    There are loads of offers on scrubs and body butters just now so it's a good time to buy and experiment to find one you like.

    hth

    Thank you so much Geordie_lass, you have been such a great help! :A

    I'm going to read up on all the links and products you gave me, go bootsing on Saturday, hunt out all the products, give them all a good sniff test and try to make a decision! Getting minis first is a really good idea so I might do that and then buy the full size version of what (hopefully) works. I love the extracts body wash and s&g products although I'd never thought of or used Sanctuary products so I'm going to investigate that. I'm going to try the olive oil and sugar tonight too and see what happens!

    Thinking about it, I could use a bit of each product on a different bit of leg and see which part stops itching! :rotfl:

    Thanks again Geordie_lass!:D

    Thanks Geordie-lass, I thought that might be the case.

    Thats my shopping list torn up, I wish Mr B would be consistant with his offers online & instore, plays havoc with my calculations and endless lists of combinations and points/offers :rotfl:

    Only points offer I saw instore today was 500 of Lacoste touch /love of pink, I cant belive thats all they have to offer with Mothers Day round the corner.
