    Hello all

    In Retford today, they had a few of these reduced to £2.3x
    http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&productId=1572&callingViewName=&langId=-1&catalogId=11051

    Also, got this for £1.00
    http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&productId=18014&callingViewName=&langId=-1&catalogId=11051

    There were some other reduction from this range, but I can't remember what exact products, sorry.

    They also had some reduced 17 cream blushers for 50p. I messed my purchase up but wonder whether these would go through with a free nail varnish?

    Hope the links work as I've not posted links before and, sorry, I don't know how to reduce the text in the link (I know, I know, it's been asked before, but I'm a bad student and don't listen unless I need the information there and then)
  • Yay, finally I got the magic 3 vouchers and managed to sucessfully use them today!!
    I got:
    No7 Glycolic Peel [strike]£17.60[/strike] £8.80
    No7 Highlighting Powder[strike]£10.00[/strike] £0.00
    No7 Line Lift[strike]£12.70[/strike] £0.00
    Meal Deal £2.99
    6 x Dairy Milk 200g @ 32p each!!!!!!!! :p
    L'Oreal eyeshadow £3.88

    Used vouchers - No7 Glycolic peel, Line Lift and Illuminating powder and No7 250pts voucher....yes I should have used pooey too, and was intending to, but got all flustered in case it didn't work and couldn't remember where I'd put it!
    Total spend was £7.59 :j
    Received 318 points

    Saved £44.54 :beer: plus whatever I saved on the Dairy Milk :confused: no idea why it was reduced, I just stared indisbelief to start with, then about 3 SA's came over to grab some and said yes you are thinking right, it is 32p, grab some before it goes! So I did, and certainly cheered up a few colleagues when I got back from lunch!! :cool:

    One of the vouchers beeped, possibly the line lift which SA scanned first, but think she sub totaled and re-scanned and it was fine then! Others were all ok.

    Thanks for all the help & advice from everyone on here... :j
    :heart: I have this theory that chocolate slows down the ageing process.... It may not be true, but do I dare take the chance? :heart:

    yay i finally got the glycolic peel and the line lift vouchers - a bit annoyed with myself for already spending the illuminating powder voucher but hey-ho

    soooo has anyone tried the glycolic peel yet? what's it like? the overly clinical box is making me nervous of it...

    me too.... anyone any ideas on the best way to spend these? x

    Hi

    Call customer service in the morning and they will send you a new card and transfer the points for you.

    Hi, I've just stumbled across this thread, makes very intersting reading. What's a perkie?? Seems everyone is talking in "Boots code" and I don't quite get it. I'm all for a freebie and bargain, can someone please explain to a Boots novice what I should be doing??? :confused:

    Perkie's were the £5 off No7 vouchers that were being given out wys (when you spend) £5 in Boots.
    There have finished now. :( But No7 is on a 3 4 2 offer at the moment,
    which can be combined with the current 3 4 2 offer on Facial Skincare throughout many other product ranges. :)
    The latest voucher is for £2 off various cosmetics such as L'oreal, Max Factor, Revlon, Bourjois etc. It is given out wys £5 in store.

    If you check ou the first page of this thread, you will find lots of helpful info relating to current deals
    (and terms used by regular forum users) in posts 1 & 2. This will enlighten you. :)

    If you do have any problems then some one here will always be able to help you out. :)
    It does seem a bit like a whole new language when you first start to read the posts here,
    but it doesn't take long to pick up on the lingo and there are some great bargains to be had at times in Boots.
    HTH (Hope this Helps) :)
