  • I am looking for a cream stick blusher. I used to love the Chanel one but it was discontinued a long time ago and although I stocked up on it my supplies are finished. I see that No7 do a one and also Clinique and I wondered if anyone had used either and what their opinions are off them please?

    Yesterday I went to Boots in Glasgow to pick up the new lipgloss by Urban Decay....it's meant to be £10.50...scanned through at £2.50!!!!!!! :eek:
    I'm fairly certian this is a mistake, but it's definetly worth a try at your local store to check (Self checkouts anyone? ;)). I got the lovely red one 'Eric'...it's gorg and tastes like baileys! :D:D

    hi, not been on here for what seems like an eternity!!!! \hubby lost his job and thankfully has a nice new one, so i have a few limited pennies to spare (at last). I went to the machine and it has given me 3 vouchers for the no7 stuff and wondered if anyone had a trick or glitch tomake the most of them - freee highlighter powder, line thingy and demobrasion thing. Im not sure if everyone has had these or if im just talking about old news, sorry to everyone if i am.

    Oh and i work for a jewellry company now and we do dorothy perkins, burton's, topshop/man bhs etc and they are now putting their jewqellrey into BOOTS. The top 500+ stores are getting it. Hope it helps some of you spend your hard earned points

    Woohoo nuttyp! great news on OH's new job, and even better on the magic 3 No.7 vouchers!
    Don't know if you have read any of the posts, but these 3 vouchers (if you can get them to go through without beeping) get you the above items for -£1.** (try searching on bigbargainbrummy posts she did it first and has a good explaination - if I find it I will LINKY HERE.
    it works something like this;
    No7 is on 342 so when you buy the above 3 items the highlight powder is free (cheepest item), the line lift cream is free because you have spent over £15 on skincare (on the glyco peel) then the till takes half price off the glyco peel, then £10 (from the illuminating powder) off whatever is left. (might be best to get some cover items ;))
    The vouchers have to be handed over in the following order;
    1st- line lift
    2nd illuminating powder
    3rd - glyco peel
    the first 2 can be swapped round but always the glyco one last.
    - Some peeps have reported beeps on the line lift voucher, but will scan if the SA sub-totals her till and scans again
    - Some peeps have had no luck at all and either SA has turned it down, or till has beeped
    - Some peeps have had no problems at all and every voucher has scanned fine with no beeps.
    I was lucky, it all worked first time, others have tried a few times before they've got it to work.

    Welcome back! The vouchers are a bit hit & miss - some people have managed to get them all to go through, in which case the till ends up owing you £1.20, and some people have had one or all of the vouchers beep when they've tried this and SA has said no. ALso not everyone is getting all 3 vouchers, so consider yourself lucky!

    Went to Glasgow today and got the line lift voucher but not the other 2 :( -if anyone has the illuminating and peel ones that theyd fancy sending on holiday and getting a sanctuary GWP back, let me know ;)

    St Enochs had Med bits and NC on clearance and tons of No17 bronzer for £2.20 (didnt buy so dont know about the nail varnish) and 3 of the big NC roll out bag things for £3 (£9.** in Buchanan Galleries).. Also had Lacoste Aftershave 50ml for £15 and Dunhill for £10.. Lots of the wee No7 black bags (with mirror etc inside) for £2..

    Buchanan Galleries was carp :)

    Sauchiehall Street had lots of these http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&productId=47257&callingViewName=&langId=-1&catalogId=11051 for 61p and various deodorant reduced SELs..

    Tights from £1.00 in all 3 locations..
    Lastly, dont know if this is old news (or even happening!) but are AC cards becoming chip and pin?? Only ask because the Sauchiehall store is being refurbished atm (Argos is moving in downstairs) and noticed a few of the AC machines now have a keypad attached..Good news if it is happening for lost cards etc!...xxx

    Hi everyone, back from my hols lol...

    Took both to the till and the 1/2 price voucher beeped so SA put it through manually at the reduced price then scanned nail varnish but it didn't go through free :eek: so off I go back again tomorrow :D:D

    Never got the magic 3 vouchers though :(
