    Hi Amy, Welcome to mse boots :)

    Or if you get a max factor gwp(gwp is good will purchase and is one of the freebies for buying things) which are currently scanning at £0.00(black mesh bag with white flower) they contain a voucher off of max factor madcara and it can be used in conjuction with the till spit for £2, which is currently being called a 'pooey'(don't ask!)


    I always thought GWP meant Gift With Purchase?

    I have heard it called both, usually its the 'posh' counters such as clarins who call it a good will purchase...but they mean the same...as in good will gift wyb, or gift wyb...etc hth :)

    can i just ask about the health club?
    when its stops in October do the over 60s(or over 21 club as my local SA calls it:rotfl:) still get 50% of the items or just the Boots 10%....just wondering wether to panic buy now or let my mum get them from October.
    i found pooey outside Boots the other day stuck to a receipt where no AC was used.....would it be really bad for me to steal(make good use of!!!) the points:o
    :beer: Am thinking of a new one:beer:

    ETA: Sorry, I'm not certain, but I think 60+ will only be 10%

    Ooh, a new star! Yay!

    I'm pretty sure that it will only be 10% for over 60s :( better than nothing though I suppose.

    And pooeys are there to used imo ;):D
    now has her .com delivery but doesnt know where to put it :o

    Well done Sally with your magic 3. I finally got mine working in London as well :j, got

    no7 peel
    no7 line lift
    no7 illuminating powder
    L'Oreal chrome eyeshaddow (really nice color in this range)

    Used magic 3 and pooey
    Paid 43p and got 40 points back, with another pooey back :D:D7f018eb7b301a66658931cb8a93fd6e8.gif

    No7 lady was actually nice and trying to help, taking me to ACM to tell me there might be vouchers, I pretended I didn't know and said "oh, wow" :rotfl:I've printed everything already of course nothing's interesting left there. She asked me a few times to get other stuff I want and go back and pay at her till, but I just ran away and paid at another normal till :o. Tried to get another batch for a friend, this time had a reduced illuminating powder, but the final price to pay became £5 something instead :confused:, so went back and replaced it with a full price one (the No7 SA asked whether I'm paying at another till:o:o), then till became 43p again, how strange.

    Thanks jazzteddy and other London bootsers (sorry can't remember who) about westfield, tried to get them at SS but they ran out of illuminating powder already. They do have Lisa Eldridge palette at £6.5 though.

    Phew, finally got the combo working, and most importantly I can sleep better now without something hanging in my mind :p

    Happy Easter to all by the way.

    Great story :T Looks like you did a terrific job. And happy (official ;)) Easter to everyone! :j

    As far as I know it'll still be 10% off mrscb :) And do your bit for the environment and recycle that voucher ;)

    Visited the Uxbridge store today which I have not been to before. I was trying to educate my friend about Boots grabbits! She got the humiliating voucher (I've already used mine) and I managed to find the No7 petal Eye palette reduced to £2.14. Also got some Bourjois tweezers (bought 2 and used pooeys) which my local is out of stock of and a lonely olay gwp sitting on a shelf which we, of course had to give a good home to!
    I couldn't find the reduced section though apart from a small No7 one where we found the palette and some suncare.
    There's a skinny woman inside me screaming to be let out. A cookie soon shuts her up!!! :rotfl:

    Wow madsaver £2.14 is a fab price for that, it's still £5.35 in stores around here.
