    :bdaycake:Happy Birthday Couttesey - sorry your not feeling too good. I hope the kids are really good for you today and you can spend some time dreaming what you are going to spend your Boots giftcards on when your'e feeling better!!

    It's my birthday in 2 weeks time and unfortunately it's a big one that I'm dreading but at the same time I'm looking forward to what my family are doing for me (my DH has let the cat out of the bag for most of it!!!:rolleyes:) and I'm going to spend the next 2 weeks dreaming on what I can get with my money when DD no1 takes me to London on the day (which just falls before the current vouchers run out) and I don't think she knows it yet but I plan to take her round at least 4 or 5 Boots stores :D and I can train her up to be a Bootser at the same time!!
    I got my new Boots card (I lost mine) in the post on Saturday and I couldn't resist going to town this morning before my DD's were up and trying it in the machine!! DD no1 has only had the free No7 highlighter once on her card when I have used it while I have been waiting for my card so imagine my joy when I have not only got the highlighter one but also the peel and line lifting one too!! I think I am going to save them for my day out to try on the SS tills in London - hopefully they will be kind to me on my birthday!! Has anyone succesfully got all 3 through on a SS till yet by any chance and if so what order did they put them through?
    Sorry!! Off topic I know - I just wondered if any London Bootsers could recommend a good hairdresser in London that isn't too expensive cause I need my hair cut and have yet to find a really good one in my local town and want to treat myself for the day (as long as I have some money left for my Bootsing!!)
    I'm kicking myself though that in my haste to get to Boots early this morning I didn't read the thread and I popped in tescos when I was in town and I didn't know/look out for the easter egg deal so didn't pick up any and it's looks too good to miss!! Maybe Asda (my local) will follow suit to compete!!:think:

    Don't know if this will be any use to you but if you sign up to the shampoo shop online you get a free cut and finish in selected salons. If you put your postcode in it should tell you your nearest one.

    I have no idea what they will be like but i have my appt booked for thursday so fingers crossed they are trained :rotfl::rotfl:

    hope this is a link to the websitehttp://www.theshampooshop.com/-i-25.html

    I think Evening Primrose Oil is used for hormones, it balances the hormones out so might be useful if you have up and down moods :)

    Afternoon all

    I visited Telford Forge Retail park (the one with Sainsburys and Tesco Express on it) store at lunchtime and there was a ruckload of new stuff on the reduced shelf including dozens of Urban Decay make up products.
    I also picked up for myself some large tubs of amazon coco butter body scrub for £1 each, bargain!

    They have moved the shelf again and it is now facing the wall the sandwiches are on but nearer to the photo kiosk.
    Hoping for a calmer year in 2012

    If you are right in the centre, there is a big Boots on the high street. There is also a smaller one in the Bullring shopping centre. If you are driving in the area, the Boots in the Fort Shopping Centre is just off the M6 (junction 5 I think). HTH
  • Hi everyone
