In the holidays a while ago,
My DS + all of us = anyone.. went to a very tiny school event.. It was in the local papers with a pic of my son in it.

Bet your ds was well chuffed, irecently made up a hamper for a registered charity and it did really well approx £200 all made with boots bargains, everyone was welcome to the auction so as to maximise the funraising possibilities. Lucky you hja attending a school/ college with so many "well off" pupils, must admit i was allways skint whilst studying.:eek:

I noticed some Bourjois mini products at Westfield today.
Mini Nail File/ Buffer @ £1.99, Mini Mirror @ £1.99, Mini Lipgloss £2.89,
Mini Mascara @ £3.49. All these had cords to attach to mobile phones or purses.
There were also Mini Nail Varnish, various colours @ £2.89 and Mini Eye Shadow Pots, various colours @ £2.89.
Might be able to use the £2 off voucher on them.
They are cute and handy for stocking fillers/ party favours etc.

Couldn't see any MF, Olay, Putting sets, La Roche, Collection 2000, etc, gwps.
They had no gwps in sight at all. Some of the No7 items I saw on the clearance stand near the No7 counter
(by the side of the tills) were more than double the price of items I saw in another store yesterday.
The only different thing I saw on the No7 clearance was a rectangular make up compact, in silver, with a mirror inside and a name signed on the outside.
Think it contained eyeshadow, blusher and lip gloss and it was priced at £6.50, first time I have seen this, so not sure if it was cheap or not.
The ACM offered me 150 points wyb any Neals Yard Remedies Range till 21/04. HTH.

I asked about the Bourjois mini products but got told NO cos its mini.. but then again this was from the same SA that told me the Bourjois pencil sharpener / nail varnish remover etc.. wasn't to be used with a pooey.. so no help there from me .. sorry JT .. I wish all SAs were trained with the same knowledge.. not say whatever their feel like it, whether its right or not.

I should have tried them out on the SS tills really to make sure that they worked.
They also had the gold or metallic purple cosmetic bags which are £9, free wyb any 2 R&M.
The cheapest thing I could see were the brushes, Mascara brush £4, Smudge brush £5.
So at SS tills if you have the 500 points wyb any R&M colour cosmetics, you could try scanning the 3 products plus the voucher.
If there had been any clearance items I would have given that combo a try. I think someone here has seen some £2.xx ish items that may go through ok.

the reduced makeup is on an end isle between the ss tills and sandwiches..best not to go through the ss tills because they dont scan properley.dont forget your vouchers.

Hi everyone,

I'm just doing my 3rd Gyclo peel treatment and must say I already feel my skin looks and feels so much fresher and younger (and I'm only 32!)

Anyway, the instructions say there's enough for 8 treatments but I've had 3 and have used hardly any (after all it's only 4 pumps of product per treatment!)

It says 'there may be a bit left over' but at this rate it's going to last me far longer than the neutralising pads which I find really annoying!!

Am I doing something wrong or have others found this too?

TIA

Em xXx

Morning everyone, I hope you've all had a good few days Bootsing. I didn't have the chance to do anything over the weekend as we were busy Saturday and at Wembley to watch the football all day Sunday:beer::beer:

Finally popped to my local yesterday and it was much the same as last week really. They've got a clearance stand just for some tights but I haven't got any acm vouchers since the last lot ran out so I left them. The normal clearance stand was the usual toothbrushes & a few Med bits but nothing new. Oh, and some Just For Men boxes for £2 I think. I ended up buying just some essentials and spent a pooey on some more L'Oreal eyeshadow.
Nothing new for me at the acm either so all in all quite a boring trip. I hope some of you do better than me. Have a great day.

They were £2xx each and had light coloured shadows in them..
Pale light green, lilac, peachy ( I think) and another colour in a circular compact.
I saw the same ones at Westfield today full price on the No7 counter.
These clearance ones were a real bargain. HTH.

Just found a pic of the ones I saw: Here

These had been moved in my local from the main no7 stand to the side "Last chance to buy" stand but they were still at £5.** as they were a couple of weeks ago when I bought some. They were on a stand with the last few foundations & suncreams that have been there for weeks:rolleyes:
