    Sorry if this has been answered, but I got one highlighter voucher last time, and I got another one this week after changeover day on Wednesday, plus more peel vouchers, and the £5 off No7 too. All of mine are valid until 19th May.

    Thank you - fingers crossed that I get another one then!
    There's a skinny woman inside me screaming to be let out. A cookie soon shuts her up!!! :rotfl:

    So the loose powder was already reduced to £2.50 before you started handing over vouchers? If so I wonder why this has been reduced to this price? I really hope this doesn't mean it's being discontinued :eek::eek::eek:

    Think I might send Mr Buffy to Boots at lunchtime...:rotfl:

    The highlights powder is being discontinued, an SA told me that at the first store I tried to get some at. I presume that's why some stores don't have any at all, others have it full price, and others have already marked theirs down (since each store can decide whether or not to mark things down rather than be consistent among stores).

    I only got one highlights voucher a few weeks ago, and since Wednesday I've gotten just a couple of offers on both my card and OH, and none of them the good ones. Just wanted to throw that in as everyone else seems to be getting loads of new vouchers, and I annoyed with Mr. B for giving me squat, lol.

    got today with acm vouchers for glycolic peel and highlights poder

    peel - 17.60
    skin illuminator - 10.30
    highlights powder - 10.00

    sel for illuminator was 10.00 thats why i picked it and put through the highlight powder first lol

    342 kicked in making the powder free
    handed over free powder voucher - no beep
    handed over glycolic voucher - no beep

    £9.10 to pay

    Thanks 4 posting this Sarah...
    So the Free Highlight's voucher works the same way as b4, ie, if the Illuminating is free on 342 the free (£10 off the) Highlights voucher comes off another item... :cool:

    Tried this yesterday, unfortunately does not work. I had really nice S/A and she tried 3 times. I am sure when I was not into Bootsing a few years ago I actually got some, but Mr. B has most probably caught on.

    Hi Mimi, Next time your in Boots have a look for the Lynx bullets the individual ones were reduced to 25p in my local. If it's a decent size like mine look in the miniture section near the suntan lotions. Hope this helps.

    Had a look for these, but not see them anywhere. The 2 pack was going for about £1.25. Would be great to take to the gym. Alas, none here.

    Thanks to the gorgeous lady (or gent) for posting re: Maltesers 100g being part of a meal deal. I just got 1 x tub of tuna and pasta, 1 x Maltesers 100g and 1 x 1lt Breccon Carreg for a grand total of 252 points . Should have seen the face on the SA. LOL. Anyone would have thought I had just pinched her purse. What a moose! I am definitely going to Boots tomorrow on the hunt for cheapo sandwiches etc to mix up with 100g of Maltesers and 1lt Breccon Carreg for cheap cheap meal deals. Go me!

    Hello, Basingstoke had most of their Sanctuary accessories reduced,(e.g. flannels 74p!!) lots of tights on clearence and a Phillips "intimate" massager or two! Durex play was reduced to £3.49. No Berry purses to be seen (sel reduced but no stock!) Creme eggs down to 22p so cheaper to go to asda(20p)! Also some teats, and a few random well picked over bits!
    August: £149/£150

    Sept: £200

    Afternoon everyone:hello: I hope you're all enjoying the sunshine if you have some.
    I've been out and about Bootsing today (avoiding cleaning the bathroom!!) and the acm gave me nothing new at all in any of the 3 shops I visited so still no highlights voucher for me but I still have the peel ones.

    Anyway, I did lots of little shops to spend my pooey's so I think I now have about 8 different Bourjois nail polishes, each costing £1.37 after a pooey. Thanks to whoever mentioned the no7 eyeshadow palettes going through at half price (was it Dee??). I had them all price checked today and it's just the "Pastel Shimmer" & "Rainforest" palettes that are £4.65, the rest are full price.
    I bought 3 on a 342 and am happy to say that my £5 off a £10 spend on no7 cosmetics voucher worked, leaving just £4.30 to pay for 3!!! Did that twice and then for my 3rd voucher I changed one palette for a reduced lip lacquer at £4.65 and that worked too!!

    No big bargains to be had in any of the 3 shops although I did get some reduced roll on deos for 18p, some foot & shoe sprays for 94p and the 2 Russian doll bags for £2.45. Most things were reduced on the SEL's rather than on a clearance stand so I had to scan just about every aisle:rolleyes:

    I hope you're all getting some good buys, have fun:beer:

    If i want to buy one highlighter and 2 liplicious, and use the free highlighter and £5 off no7 (hopefully leaving ~£4.50 to pay)...does anyone know which order I should hand over the vouchers in???

    Any advice appreciated!!
    I did exactly this - and it does work. Just remember to scan the £5 off voucher before the free illuminating voucher, because after the £10 for the powder is taken off, you don't reach the £10 limit to get the £5 off.

    The till also spat me a voucher as well, which is strange as I only paid £4.30
