birmingham boots,
bullring had lots of reduced perfumes, perfume body lotions etc near perfume section.
they still have the sanctuary sento handwash for nearly £2
nc wash bags for £1.23
didnt see anything else.

boots high street had LOADS of no7 tubed lipglosses, double ended ones and lipsticks around £4-£4.75
the stay perfect liquid foundation has been reduced to £3.50 as well as the compact one and the age foundation one too. NO7

and you can use the £5 acm voucher on it too when you buy 3, still works even with teh 342 making the total cost £2!!!!

bargain as it would normally be around £45 for 3.

Thanks for that, I never seem to get anything when I go to B'ham. Like last Friday, nothing. Tuesday, nothing. Even the ACM is not playing ball with me, it has given me none of these magic coupons!!!!

Went to Romford Liberty today, and they have this huge box, covered in gold wrapping, with a sign saying that'll it'll be unveiled on Thursday.

I am on "Hi! How are you today" terms with the No 7 lady, so I asked if this was the new P & P product I'd heard about.

She said it was, and I asked what the difference was between this, and the current P & P items. She said it was for Deeper Wrinkles, and was more intense.

She also said there might be some samples!! So I think this means there will be. I'm assuming that when it's unveiled it will be a huge mock up of the box with the name on etc and a display, but I never saw anything similar in any of the London branches yesterday.

Beckton was a waste of a bus fare, not that I pay any fares, as I have my "Boris"! There were still the £50 R & M red makeup cases for £12.50, doggy bookends, Christmas Crackers and wrapping paper, and loads of No 7 creams from yesteryear for £2. But nothing new. HTH

I also asked this a while ago & Angie reassured me it would be fine. I've tried it twice now & really like it so have to agree. I did what she suggested & used a good sun cream too, WHEN it was out

I think the glycolic peel is worth it too. I was afraid at first as I didn't want it to burn my face off or anything but everything went well. It burns a little bit (for me) but if you have a hand held fan that helps. The first time I had it done my skin was red for a few hours and the next day it only felt like a light sunburn, not bad at all really. It's got a lot easier and makes my skin glow every time now! :T

Hi girlies! Am I allowed to buy L'Oreal For Men Wrinkle De-Crease things with the £5 voucher? I tried to get one of the products today, and the gorgeous SA did try, but the computer said no. Please tell me I won't have to buy some more Olay carp! I am sure one of the beauties on here said she had used it on the Men's stuff.

I also remember someone on here saying they had bought the L'Oreal mens stuff with the voucher. IIRC they had a conversation with a SA who said that as it didn't say on the voucher that men's products were excluded they would override the till.

As it was reported here a couple of weeks ago that this weekend we can get 10 points per £1 when you spend £15, can anyone explain how this offer works with extra points vouchers? I know that if I use a voucher for double points it will only double the regular points, but I'm a little worried that I'll just end up getting double points (which would be 8 per £1) rather than the 10 points I would've gotten without the voucher. In theory, I should get 14 points per £1 with the coupon.

Also, I know if I use total spend vouchers (like 250 points if you spend £30) that won't be doubled, but I just wanted to make sure that also won't impact the bonus points.

Sorry if all that was confusing; those who have used a handful of points coupons on special points weekends know what I mean (I hope)!

Didn't mean to worry anyone, I just hate to spend even a few quid if it's not going to work well. I looked up the hotukdeals thing for more info, and the ped egg they were talking about was being sold at dealextreme. One person got theirs and said it was not the real thing and not too great, either (post). Another posted pics that show what the real thing looks like (post). I guess it's hard to say unless you compare it to one you know is the real deal, but the pic on eBay sure looks real (the one on dealextreme also said ped egg professional on the egg, but they didn't show the packaging like the eBay one does, so I'd say the ebay looks like a better bet).

Is this item good to use if you just have a few slightly rough spots? It may be more fierce than I need anyway, thanks to all the lovely foot creams from boots.

I bought 2 from the Ebay link earlier. I don't think they are authentic because next to the ped egg name there isn't the TM for Trade Mark next to it which it shows on the real one. The package looks very authentic though. I tried it and it works well so I guess that's the important bit.
