    Sally06, consider yourself kicked up the you-know-what!!! Summer's on it's way and going to the gym will make you feel better about all sorts of things - and it means you can eat and drink more with a clear(ish) conscience(that's why I go - I may be sitting here with a glass of vino, but I've earned it on the treadmill, LOL!).... go for it!

    Hi Clare:D thanks for the kick up the wotsit:rotfl: you're right, summer is just around the corner and I want to get into my favourite size 12 outfits that no longer fit:( I'm going to wipe the cobwebs off my aerobics DVD and do a daily work out. I will also ban cakes from the house until I have lost 1 stone 6lb. I'm quite tall so I don't really want to lose more than that. I lost way too much one time and it didn't suit me. I aim to reach my target weight in 2 months. Watch this space....:D

    Hi
    Been to boots Trafford Centre today and there are still quite a few no7 accessories left.

    Got no7 gloves
    2x no7 key rings
    2x credit card holders
    1 no7 foldaway bag

    Used perkies on all of them and paid few pence towards cc and bag

    no glasses cases or eyelash curlers in stock
    MILLYMOLLY, where abouts are they?
    Are they with all the No7 cosmetics? x

    Just skimmed the end of the old thread as been away for a week.

    Stansted airport Boots (after security) had no7 suncream/after suns SEL of £4.58? ish - BINGO! I thought, can use a perkie on those... went through at £2.29 - till beeped, SA said go get another one and it'll be fine... it was! :D

    Until I used them! I followed the instructions, apply 15 minutes before going out in the sun. SPF 15 (I will burn in 20 minutes if I don't use suncream, so doing the maths 15 x 20 mins= a lot :o ) I lay by the pool for about 30 mins and went to get a drink... chatted to some peeps near the bar for a few mins, went back to my lounger, reapplied suncream as paranoid about burning.

    Went back to my room to get ready to go shopping - had only been in the sun for about 2 hours and discovered I had burned in that time :mad:

    hiya:) I am so jealous;) I need a holiday. seriously, I've used No7 suncreams abroad (factor 8/15) and had prickly heat as a result. I find they are ok if you choose a higher factor - 20 or above, but anything below does not protect your skin. Soltan is much better and cheaper and I have never had a problem with that. I have quite a large stash of No7 suncreams (doesn't every bootser;) ) I use the lower factor ones in the UK and the higher factor ones when I am abroad.

    I am off to Richmond for 4 days working and was wondering where the nearest large store. I have 7 perkies to spend and I am desperate to get some accessories. Any ideas??

    Well not sure about Richmond itself (London Richmond, right?) as they do have quite a long street of shops, but if your willing to get on the tube,(from Richmond station) you can easily get to Bond Street station (4 small/medium floors), Picadilly Circus (2 small/medium floors) or Westfield/Shepherd Bush station (2 large floors) where there are bigger and better stores.

    I fly out of Manchester next week and was wondering if you re allowed to use perkies or other vouchers in airport Boots, thank you.

    Did you notice if they had any of the No.7 accessories in Stansted please?

    Hi Everyone
    Love reading this thread but do not post much as my store never seems to have the bargains that all your stores have, also I think my store is very rigid regarding vouchers etc. Plymouth Drake Circus had loads of the No.7 glass cases, mirrors, credit cards holders etc decided to get the moisturising gloves and muslin cloths free with perkies. SA would not let me use the 2 vouchers on the extracts range, wouldn't even overide it. Looked for the Vichy and La Posy GWP found them on the stand but they had these huge security tags wrapped around them, no reduced toothpaste or toothbrushes, in fact no reduced stand anywhere.
