    Hi everyone :hello:

    Haven't been keeping up with the thread since Easter, or been to Boots much, but called in at lunch today and there was loads of 17 make up for 50p / £1 in the clearance bit upstairs (in Leeds Albion St), and some teal or purple tights for £2.50 and loads of other bits and bobs I can't remember now :o

    NC bags weren't reduced and I couldn't find the nivea lip glosses anywhere! :confused:

    I've only got the one No 7 voucher from the machine, for the highlight powder, any suggestions of the best way to spend it without the other vouchers to go with it and without spending too much real money?!

    Thanks!
    -HB x

    The highlighter voucher is for a free highlighter powder so go get it!! ;)
    "Buy me, Lady", said the frock, "and I will make you into a BEAUTIFUL & WHOLE & COMPLETE human being".
    "Do not be silly", said the Man, "for a frock alone cannot do that".
    "True", said the Lady, "I will have the shoes and the bag as well".
    :rotfl:

    Don't I have to buy something to get it free?! If not that's awesome! :D Haven't read it that carefully, I should do that!! Thanks!
  • Finally plucked up the courage to use my magic 2 vouchers (I didn't get the peel one)
    I got highlighter, line lift and then I got beauty balm. I got 2 x 17 wipes at 99p each and then 2 nail varnishes free, even though I picked up the new packaged bottles. Got a few other wee bits that I needed.
    NC bags were still full price and there were no nivea lip glosses.
    No SS tills in Huddersfield but got a nice young SA, who didn't even notice the bargain I got :rotfl: No idea how the total came about but I paid £10.03 altogether, and made a saving of £38.16.
    Got a pooey and spent it on Loreal mascara which was reduced from £9.78 to £7.78 so I got it for £5.78. Got another pooey which I spent on a Loreal Trio for £2 something.
    Feel quite smug now hehe
    Thanks to all the posters!

    I did it through the self service tills at this store and it worked. The only thing is they might not have all of the products in stock. Sometimes they only have 2 of the 3, so if this is the case think before about what other combinations you could do to make the most of the vouchers.

    Do watch out when buying the No7 Stay Perfect lip lacquers. They are currently at half price, £4.75, but the replacements are now out and they go through at full price £9.50.

    The colour names are the same, but with the new ones both ends are coloured (different shades), there isn't a clear end. I spotted some like this in Sugar Mauve on the shelf with the £4.75 ones, and asked the SA about them. She price-checked them and found them to be full price, so removed them from the display. In other branches, this may not have been spotted, so you will end up paying more than you thought if you pick one of these up.

    If ur looking not to spend much for the powder and don't want to use the other vouchers u can get a No7 tan corrector wipe that is down to 99p and get the powder free with that.
