I tarted 2 Boots today!

In the first one they had lots on NO7 sun range (current line) reduced to half price and they still came out BOGOF. Only thing is, I had to actually spend £15 on the stuff as the till wouldn't accept the lilac bag as being free. Also got Trevor Sorbie Long Hair thermal mask £3.50 usually £6.99 and Long Hair range again, Serum £2.99 usually £5.99. (These are all full price in my local Boots) Used my No7 voucher and 250 points. Plus received another £5 No7 voucher

Second Boots, I found the 'organiser', got the lilac bag, bought No17 tan corrector towel and free brush (got 200 points on these.) Handed over another No7 £5 voucher, 100 points voucher for the No17 goodies and 250 points for any No7 product, however, it doesn't include gift sets, so they didn't get added. So that cost me £5 (not bad I suppose as it is normally £15 and I did get ma lilac bag!) Soooo..... I picked up a refreshing eye gel for £7.50, handed over another £5 voucher and the 250 points and this time it all went smoothly!

Went back to the 2nd Boots later and with one of the half price sun products (£5.75) did a straight swap for a No 7 Advance Hydration face cream worth £11.50.

So here I am, 2 lilac bags later, feet aching and a bag of Boots goodies at a bargain price!

:question: Does anyone know if the deal with the organiser works on any of the other gift sets? There is one for skin care for £9.99 (will be £15) and at least one other, as well as some that are £7.99

I haven't tried any of the other sets but I imagine they would work in the same way. Just make sure you get the skincare set or the lipgloss set because the nail polish set is £12 normally so you won't get the free bag.

If the set was originally £15 you get the bag for free, unless you are unfortunate enought to have a jobs worth sa. The sets reduced to £7.99 were originally £12.99 so you would have to spend another £3 on No 7 to get bag.

I got a free bag with the skin care set yesterday and the lip glosses today.
Although both reduced to £9.99 the till still allowed it. Also let me use my £5 No 7 Voucher. I bought other things at same time so as not to be to obvious.

Nothing good in clearance today. NO AC machine was working but the manager said they were having brand new machines next Thursday. Didn't get too much as I couldn't print a total spend AC voucher, couldn't try the Easy4men glitch, had my Daily Mail voucher for a sample of Elizabeth Arden (from another MSE thread) but they don't stock it... and I got THE crabby SA -

Bought two sun care items, BOGOF, £8.50 - cue first argument about whether I could have the lilac bag - SA said no, so I said I'd put the other items back (knowing I'd already missed the total spend points I wasn't that bothered). In the end she relented (and behold the till said yes!), bought a meal deal (again no 100 point bonus), 2 half price flapjacks (but then ate them both), 3 bodyform, and another coke (despite what the other poster on here said, it didn't discount the second bottle when the first was on a meal deal, but you have to try these things...)

Till says, £16.71, gave £5.00 No 7 voucher, till says £11.71, voucher earned (didn't even try to palm off the 250 point voucher after the argument about the lilac bag, I'll save that for another day). Paid £8.71 cash and £3.00 bodyform vouchers. No voucher given back and only earned 44 points (dismal!).

Assistant point blank refused to give the No 7 voucher even though the till had said yes. After arguing the point and getting nowhere went to another till and SA there said she was wrong - my total spend (after £5.00 No7) was over £10, and the bodyform vouchers were nothing to do with Boots, so they shouldn't affect the final "spend" and gave me the voucher! (see there was a reason why this should be on this thread - eventually!)

And I got the magazine, although some stands were still carrying the old one.

Clayton Square, Go to the main No 7 display and look on the bottom shelf of the No 7 sun lotion section -there are the organisers, lip gloss, skin care etc.
Took me ages to find them and they don't mentioned they are reduced.

Don't pay the No 7 assistant for obvious reasons.

Anyone needing sun lotion? I specifically like the Nivea Sun Sensitive Lotion and Boots currently have BOGOF, but that's with factors 30 and 50. I really wanted to get SPF 15. Last night at the Lakeside branch I managed to find the factor 15 bottles in the clearance section, priced at £5.49 (half price). Bought two bottles which then rang up at half price and BOGOF, so 2 bottles for £5.49 - bargain!! Then went back for 2 more for parents. Also had factor 30 normal spray in the clearance section too.
