Had a good shop today! Managed to get everything on my list :j

3 x Nivea gloss triple 342 = £2.46 ( only 2 on shelf but kind SA went and found me another one out back:T
3 x No17 wipes = £2.98 + 3 free nail varnishes (most expensive was the glittery one which should have been £3.42 :rolleyes:
2 x Natural Collection Multi Bag = £2.46 (SA commented on how much they had been reduced
Paid £7.89 - saved £10.11 which doesn't include the amount saved on the reduced items - got a pooey and 28 points :T

Both AC machines weren't working :mad:. Waiting for a peel voucher. I have 2 lift ones and spent the highlighter one before I knew about the magic 3 :eek:

I did exactly the same thing today, the lady in front didn't print anything out, and she had all 3 vouchers, and all 3 items were on the no.7 shelf. I didn't like to tell her either. No magic vouchers for me, although my mum's card had the peel one. I couldn;t find any nivea lip glosses, did someone say that they were not with the normal lip stuff.

Very little on the clearance shelf, a few hair colours, electrical goods and some NC eye shadow.

Sorry not sure if already posted....

saw a RECALL NOTICE for the Lee Stafford Box of Tricks in my local the other day. (Didn't read what the problem is as was dashing).

HTH

Has anyone else spotted this or can elaborate further? I've just checked the "Recall" page on .com & its not listed there, but I'm using the straighteners on a daily basis & I have a tendancy to leave them on without realising it whilst I'm out at work!! I'm just not awake in the morning!! Any info on what the problem is would be appreciated!

Went looking for the Nivea lip gloss trios today after work - finally found one pack (the last one in the shop) in a teeny branch in Long Row. None to be found anywhere in Vic Centre (and believe me, I looked :rolleyes:) same story in Broadmarsh.

No NC bags either anymore at any of these branches.

Vic Centre had further reduced their Mr Mascara sets - they were half price earlier this week, at £2.45. Now they are £1.23, on the normal shelves with reduced price SELs.

Clearance was full a couple of days ago - but they've whipped it away again, its nowhere to be seen.

I did get a rose Balm Balm face balm on the clearance stand at Broadmarsh, no idea how much it is usually, but the clearance price there is £1.

Thanks balletshoes, Im off to Notts 2morrow, Sat is the only day I get to myself, well, me and my mother actually, Im trying to teach her the bootsing ways. She loves a bargain too. Anyway, I was going to see if I could get any NC bags, so thanks for the update on those.
Just wanted to ask, did they still have the putting sets? I got one last week and it looks fab, so I would like to get another for my dad.
Thanks in advance

They are with the lip salve/balm things.

I'm now going to sound like a proper idiot but can someone give me a proper explanation of 'the magic 3'? I keep reading about it but what with abbreviations, 'the dreaded beep' and joining in half way through, I really don't have a clue.
I'm still unclear of all the abbreviations, is there anyway that they could be put at the top of every page rather then me, and I suspect others, having to go back to the first page?

Having just read through the last few pages I was going to ask the same thing.
I've not done any Bootsing for about 3 months now but my basket on the top of the wardrobe is looking very empty and needs topping up... need to get back into the hunt

Diidn't do too good on the magic three, had 2 lots so myself and DD went to use them

Had the selection ready in order but the SA said 'oh give me all your vouchers' I said 'I'll give them to you one at a time' but she said 'no hand them here' and took them, then spread them all out and randomly picked up different ones....NOT in the magic order.:wall:_pale_

I watched in horror but there was nothing I could do.:rotfl:

I find the trick with vouchers is to leave them in your purse and get them out one at a time with an innocent ' oh here's another voucher that might work':p
