    I had a nice little shop today, but not in boots:D primark had loads of PJs reduced to £2 and £3, so grabbed a few:) then I went to wilko and found some nice dove gift sets reduced by 70% off to £1.88:j
    I had 4 x £1 mitchum vouchers burning a whole in my purse, so I got 4 mitchum roll on priced at £1.25 each, handed over 4 £1 Moc's and paid £1 for all 4:T

    I hope everyone managed to use up their perkies today:)

    The Sunday I'm free this board is not so busy... generally after the w/end I've got quite a lot of catching up to do lol!:rotfl: Not 2day tho... n e ways went B's y'day to finish using my last 4 Perkies and the Highlight powder voucher (this rec'd from a swap)... I also had some other vouchers 4 being part of the Parenting Club which r/were due to expire @ the end of the month... and as so many here I hate 2c vouchers being wasted & not used...;) Purchased the following:

    1st shop
    Highlight Powder @ £10 (Free with voucher) *** with No Beeps as per my previous post! I had prepared myself to explain to the SA I had been able to use the voucher on thurs but to my utter amazement when she scanned the coupon it just went thru!!!:j :j I was quite taken back but awfully pleased!:j )
    No7 Eye Palette @ £5.38 (Used Perkie)
    No7 Lip Laquer @ £4.75 (Free on 342)
    Bourjois Nail File @ £2.93 (£2 Voucher used)
    To pay £1.36;

    2nd/3rd shops
    No7 Lip Laquers @ £4.75
    " " " @ £4.75 (Used Perkie)
    " " " @ £4.75 (Free on 342)
    Bourjois Tweezers @ £2.93 (£2 Voucher used)
    To pay £5.68 + £2 Voucher;

    4th shop
    No7 Lip Laquer @ £4.75 (Free with Perkie; had far too many lip laquers by now so didn't use it on 342!)
    Bourjois Sharpner @ £1.95 (Free with £2 Voucher)
    2 * top/trousers from Mini mode @ £6 each (1/2 price) = £12 (used 10% off mini mode + £5 off £10 spend on baby)
    To pay £5.80 + £2 Voucher;

    5th shop
    Nappies * 2 packs @ £16 (used £5 off £10 spend on baby coupons * 2 + 2* £2/2* £1 off nappies vouchers all with different barcodes)
    EA Perfume £9.79
    EA moisturiser £5
    Total to pay £14.79 (with 1000pts back on EA) **** was unable to get the 3 EA items + the hand cream free (as posted by Bellydancer MT!:T ) as the store I went to had run out of creams, supposedly!:rolleyes: + £2 voucher gained;

    Also in another B's found the following in clearence:

    Palmolive Bath Milk @ 75p each (had 2 manufacturer 50p MOCs so cost 50p 4 both);
    No7 Nail Vanish/Foundations/Lipstick @ £1 each (tried to use Perkie but till said 'NO, NO!':p ); however the 342 kicked in so for 6 items £4;

    Max Factor Gloss Lip Balm clearence @ £1 * 2 (used £2 voucher from mailing! Woohoo, thought would never b able to get rid of this coupon as didn't want to spend too much just to get the voucher used... but 2 items 4 £2 with no extra spend, that's awesome!:D Pure luck, I know!:rotfl: )

    B's Electronic Bathroom Scale reduced to £3.91 on clearence!:T Don't know what the original price was... but still a bargain, me thinks...:j

    Came home & put all my stash away (admiring it, of course, whilst I put it away...:o :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: )

    Edited 2 add: Sally, so terrible what happened 2u... do complain, as this kind of behaviour is not only unacceptable but is becoming quite frequent... TC


    Snipped...

    Well done on your shops :T

    Didn't want to snip it as it's great.
    btw .. I bought Boots electronic bathroom scales a few weeks ago = nearly £16 :eek: so looks like you got them at 75% off :D :j well done. xxx

    Just back from using my last 2 perkies - ended up buying 2 more of the mirror compacts for my hamper stash.

    Still lots of GWPs at Vic centre, but no clearance worth having at all (just boxes of overpriced toothbrushes, some incontinence pads, and the NO7 Spring petal eye pallettes). As well as the Vichy, L'Oreal white bags, and Olay purple box GWPs, today I also saw another Olay one - grey suede-effect bag with Pantene and Olay minis in. I'm guessing this is another old one? All the skincare GWPs were being fiercely guarded by 2 SAs today - one was literally rooted to the spot right beside the stand with all the GWPs on.

    :eek: .
    yes, it is an old GWP:D they seem to be doing the rounds again. I spotted them in a store last week too;) the last MF GWP is worth getting too;) ;) and you can use a pooey at the same time:D

    I noticed that I was being followed last week in MK as the same sa (possibly manager as all suited up) kept popping up at the tills when I was there. I probably made myself look suspicious with the walking round and round the same aisles for about half an hour though!

    Don't we all do this?? My main Boots now is Bristol Cribbs Causeway, which had a major re-fit about 4 weeks ago - so I now wander round and round for even longer than I used to, cos I still can't find things!:rotfl:

    PS Sally06 Can you clear your in-box, pls!

    Have really enjoyed this! Thank you. But I suspect your local care home or hospice might appreciate them if you can't find a use for them.

    Rest assured that I'll find a good home for them Picasso.

    Which reminds me, the ovulation kits were back - and cheaper than they were! :confused: And before anyone asks, yes I did :cool: ;)

    Hiya Everyone

    Considering it's pretty much quiet on this thread .. it must also be more quiet in mr.b's than usual.. well it might be tomorrow, with no perkies to use + only pooeys to gain .. I know it's been said that we should get a new voucher + more till spits this week or so... which will be good, cos if not, then this thread will be even more quiet :eek: + that'll be nooooooo good.

    Lately, the clearance sels have been .. tights + condoms + make up.. :rotfl: coincidence maybe?? lol :rotfl:

    Can I just say thank you to everyone who had PM'd me and sorry to everyone that I have not replied to, which is most of you. :o

    I feel really bad about it but had a bad experience in hospital and it has left me rather unwell. Added to this are the pressure sof life ;)

    So Please don't think I am ignoring you, I just need to get myself together enough to reply to you all. I have just posted a message on the chat board, which hopefully will explain things. TIA x
