    Had a few shops last w/end but was busy 2 post them & lately have felt B's a bit boring with no excitement...:o

    Shop 1

    NC Strawberry Bath Cream @ £1.99
    NC Passion Fruit Bath Cream @ £1.99
    NC Starwberry Pearls clearence @ 63p each total £1.89
    Extracts @ £1.63
    Total £7.50 with 420pts back (150pts Extracts/ 250pts NC/ 20 'normal' pts)

    Shop 2

    Mini Mode Clothing @ £15.50

    Used £5 off £15 voucher; 20% off baby mag; 10% Mini Mode voucher;
    Could not use 20% Mini Mode from current mag as these were 2b used from 6/5 onwards; also would like to highlight that the £5/£15 voucher beeped & the SA called the supervisor to override... even the SA was amazed @ my savings as I pd... £3.90!!!! And got 32pts! So was I, lol!!!:p Amazed that is!!:p

    Other Shops

    Used the current £5 vouchers on Olay facial washes (as if I didn't have enough!!!:eek:); also used the Extracts 150pts 2 purchase the Mini Extracts...

    And I'm proud to say I managed to womble about 4* £5 current vouchers... I have 2 say it's a sacrilege when one sees the £5 vouchers in the bin @ the SS tills!!!!:eek:

    ...... snipped.....Finally, is Boots the cheapest for those Cucumber flavoured face wipes? Niece really likes them and I want to get her a whole lot, but I think they are a tad expensive at £3 for 2 packs. She is only 9, and it's not like she dolls herself up or anything. Anyone know where I can get them cheaper from? Thanks in advance.
    Hi Mimi
    Home Bargains and the Original Factory Shops both have cheap face wipes, often they have the Boots brands and other names reduced too.

    Thanks for the information GEORDI-LASS. I will have a look at Home Bargains tomorrow. She likes the cucumber ones, so hopefully will find some. Thanks to LIKESTOSAVEMONEY and CHERYLDON too.

    ok so i've skipped the magic 3 posts as i've not had the vouchers....untill now.
    so what's the cheapest combo? i have glycolic and the highlights vouchers. and my third item would probably be p+p night creme (£20 ish) or trio eyeshadow (£9.30). which would be the best combo to get the most off?
    if i bought the p+p would the highlight voucher take £10.30 off the creme so all i pay is £8.80 for glycolic and £10.30 off the price of the creme?
    can't remember what the 3rd magic voucher was? - ah just thought it was the line eraser!

    I saw some of the trio eyeshadows reduced yesterday to £4.65, one I think one was rainforest (greens/browns), and the other was very pale blue and pink colours.

    Mimi- was in Morrisons today and they have cucumber facial wipes for 50p- they are on offer, not sure when it ends as didn't look but did buy some and they are very gentle, smell of cucumber (sweet) and did a good job of removing the dirt from my face :)
