    Has anybody tried the new John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder?
    10083090?wid=200&hei=250&op_sharpen=1
    It apparently makes your hair blonder....I thought only bleach did that? Can any hairdressers clarify???

    Hi Not been on for ages, trying to be good?! So far so good. I think it contains peroxide so be careful if you got damaged hair already wont do it much good hth


    hi,im not a hairdresser but i thought id set the record straight about this as i use it and im finding it very good,
    heres what it says on boots.com
    John Frieda Sheer Blonde® Go Blonder Lightening Shampoo gradually lightens natural, colour-treated and highlighted blonde hair. With citurs extract and chamomile, the gentle formula improves the healthy look of your hair by tightening the cuticle and strengthening the shaft. The shampoo is ammonia and peroxide-free so is gentle enough for daily use.
    Directions For Use:
    Smooth go blonder lightening shampoo into wet hair and lather. Rinse thoroughly. Repeat if necessary. For best results follow with Sheer Blonde® Go Blonder Lightening Conditioner. Continue to use regularly to maintain the sun-kissed sparkle.

    so its not at all going to harm your hair in any way hth
    and its on 3 for £10 at the minute so its a bargain

    Hi All, Can anyone tell me whether there are any self service tills at the Bury St Edmunds store in Suffolk please? TIA

    No I'm afraid not :(, the nearest to Bury St Edmunds (as far as I know) are in Ipswich.

    Well thought i had done well just now until read these posts, should have paid attention and read this thread before going to Boots, Just got a Rainforest Eye pallet for about £2.33 and got a voucher for a free highlights powder, girl saisd No 7 on 3 for 2 so get something else, so said are you sure , she said yes so picked something but made my spend double to what i wanted to pay so asked her to take the 3rd thing off, she grunted but did

    Anyway for £6.?? got the following

    No7 Rainforest triple eyeshadow
    No7 Highlights powder only 1 colour available Pink
    50p soap from Clearance
    50p Spot cream for nephew from Clearance
    Hoisin Duck Wrap
    Orange Juice
    £1.89 pkt Revels

    So still happy with it all as powder for Little sis Birthday

    Pondering whether to go back and get 3 more No7 items and use sisters card for another powder and hopefully can get a GWP as well?

    Any thoughts anyone ??

    The No7 GWP currently is on a £20 No7 spend, so if you use a highlighter voucher, you'd still need to add another 2 No7 products which together total £10.00 or more - then your highlighter voucher would make that item free, so £10 would come off your total, then the cheaper of the 2 remaining products would be deducted on the No7 342.

    Or you could do like I did yesterday, and go mad with the petal eye pallettes at £2.33 each to total just over £10 (that would be 5 of them ;)).
    You'd get 2 of them free, as you'd have 6 No7 products, highlighter free with your voucher, GWP free as you've scanned through more than £20 worth of No7, and you'd end up paying £6.99 for the lot.

    Hi everyone,
    Went to Basingstoke centre branch today. All the reduced baby bits (cups, feeding bowls etc) have disappeared but there were two baby video monitors in the clearance centre for £40 something each. Didn't take any notice of the make - but the cheapest one I can find on .com is around the £130 mark.
    In Chineham yesterday still had baby cutlery etc reduced and gorgeous little newborn bibs for 99p a pack. Also Pampers Easy Up pants extra large for £2.25 a pack (the large packs usually £8.99). Also baby armbands 99p so worth looking out for.
    Thanks to whoever posted on here about being able to get the large bags of maltesers in the meal deal. Bought duck wrap, J2O and the maltesers - very good value!

    Have a lovely day!

    Thanks for that, was thinking about getting the Highlighting powder, the line lift 2 no7 pallettes and GWp so it wd be ??

    Funny thing the total for the 3 NO7 items i got this morning

    £10 Highlighter
    £2.33 eyeshadow
    £8.50 Mousse for eyes

    meal deal and 2 50p items was about £12.49 so was losing out because of 3 for 2 ?

    Isn't that right though?
    The cheapest item goes free on the 342, so that would be the eye pallette.
    Your No7 total would be the cost of the eye mousse £8.50, plus £1 for your clearance bargains, plus £2.99 for your meal deal.

    Yes it is but what i am saying is its better not getting the 3 for 2 unless you really want the extra item as only saving £2.?? something on it better just getting the eyeshadow Free highlighting powder and forgetting the 3 for 2
