***mimi***......step away from the Glue Sticks this time around lol

Eh? Am I missing something? I am a bit dumb I know. Please explain. *** Various haircare items reduced including AUSSIE (just less than £1), L'OREAL ANTI DANDRUFF (55p), and all kinds of SCHWARTZKOPF and SUN IN LIGHTENER, JEROME RUSSELL, L'OREAL PERFORMANCE (or something). *** Tried doing 2 x £1.22 items with £2 off voucher at local along with other items, and troll SA wouldn't let me do it, but cheeky cow scanned both items, and then said you can't use voucher on both, so I said I would leave one, but the troll did not cancel the item (only noticed this on the bus home!), so ended up paying 44p for the 1 I got which should have been free. Anyway, total came to just over £5 and got another £2 off, and the witch used that voucher on the 1 she should have cancelled. I'm not impressed! Sorry mini rant over. *** I'm getting those horrid little skin rip things on the end of my fingers (near where the nail starts). Anyone know what I'm meant to use to stop them happening? They hurt! HELP! *** Also, is the branch in SHEFFIELD near the train station? I'm there next week and wouldn't mind popping in. TIA. Have a good one all.

I went to the hitchin store today and found a clearance shelf with 17 eye shadows reduced to £1:T
I bought 2 dazzle dust and got the 17 GWP:jit's not a bad freebie for a £2 spend:Dthey still had a few eye shadows left if anyone is interested. I spotted some 17 tan wipes reduced to 20p and tried to get another GWP with them, but the till beeped:rolleyes:it was worth a try though. Would've been good to get a GWP with a 40p spend.

Also, lots of No7 reductions, but nothing really cheap!

I popped to the market afterwards and bought a ped egg for £2. Not sure if it is genuine, but it looks identical to the one in WHS and boots going for £10:D

Get yourself a pair of cuticle nippers and take the little rags off. Use cuticle oil daily to help prevent

Wahoo! I tried the method baby voucher with the kids reduced stuff and it worked this time! So pleased. My mum couldn't believe that they're basically giving it to you for free. I bought two 17 eye liners and got the GWP, the bag will be really useful.

Slightly off the boots topic but I also got BOGOF books in Smiths and used a voucher to get a free kids 61 piece art set. I then went to body shop and got chatting to one of the SA, bought a large toiletries bag (in the half price sale) and she gave me three samples of body shop products.

An excellent afternoons shopping.

Quick question: Can I 'buy' £10 of sanctuary products using my boots points and still get the GWP?

Hi Mimi,
just bought hubby a Tweezerman hangnail trimmer with case for £3 reduced in my local Boots. Think it was well over half price but cannot remember original price exactly. He has the same prob and seemed quite impressed with it!

Thanks! I've got £18 in points and it's the end of uni for this year so I think I deserve to treat myself but no way can I justify or afford £10 on products which I'd usually spend a total of £2 on but 'free' plus GWP would make me extra happy.
