    Hiya! Will post my shops later, (hopefully!:o) but in answer 2 ur question the R&M voucher beeped on all my 3 transactions done y'day & 2day... having said this I used them on reduced items...:o went 2 pay as 1 normally does;) but the voucher came with the following msg: 'coupon expired plz destroy it'... yet the coupon is valid till the end of the month... SA checked with the manager & put it thru as a Boots coupon so not only got 342 on R&M (as it's the offer @ the mo) but also @ clearence prices & was able 2 use the £5 voucher!:j Success!:p

    tried to use the ruby and millie voucher on 3 reduced items, and till and SA would not accept it. QUOTE]

    Yes, totally SA dependant, which is a real shame.

    Was very lucky - found reduced R&M lipgloss (2.88) and nail varnish (2.38) in only three colours in both. Took to the SA and he said they were 342 - been out of the Boots loop so hadn't realised, so went to get one more of each.

    SA scanned R&M coupon and beeped. Manager said to override as Boots coupon, so ended up with:

    3 x R&M lipgloss purple (sounds odd but very subtle): total 5.76 so 76p to pay.
    Earnt hairy + 20pts.

    3 x R&M lipgloss gold (again, subtle and a hint of colour): total 5.76 so 76p to pay.
    Earnt hairy + 20pts.

    3 x R&M nail varnish: total 4.76. Till said -0.24p. SA would not give me cash, I thought fair enough. So free for me and 16pts.

    Many thanks to OP for the R&M coupon.


    Small High Street Kensington store has closed and all stock shifted to big one. Staff being dispersed to other stores so they were abit despondent.

    Lost Bootsing mojo too, that and a little preoccupied with DD's GCSEs - so stressful - and that's just for me!!! Haven't had time to catch up with threads so hope all's well with everyone...

    Hi guys

    not posted for ages as had no bargain or decent vouchers! Today I tried the hair voucher with 2 products @ £1.18 each and only got £1.18 taken off. We alwaysused to be able to get several products with £2 off the total but looks like this has been scuppered :(

    I've used the £2 on the same type of hair products & got the full £2 taken off... my total came to £2.36 (as purchased 2) & after voucher pd 36p!:o

    Thank you for the tip about the Scholl cream for rageddy nails-I'm going to get some and try it to solve my finger nail problem.

    For about 3 years now I have had a vertical split in my thumb nail, about half a centimetre long. I have to keep the nail cut really short otherwise the two edges catch on things and rip down further. I had a false nail stuck on it once, to see if it would heal, but that didnt work. The nail technician said that the nail bed has been fractured, which is why it continues to grow like this. I have tried various lotions and creams, and also supplements and vitamins to help from inside, all to no avail.

    If any one else has suffered from this problem, I would LOVE to know if you have ever managed to grow it out, cos I think I have got it for life and it makes me very sad :(

    My big toe on my Right foot has this problem! It has always grown with a line down it! How do I get rid of it? I assumed it was cos I had kicked something and damaged it and it stayed growing like that. I also would like to know if there is any way to make it grow normal i.e without a line down the middle!!

    Mine is actually split right through, not just a 'line'. Is yours split too? Horrible isn't it?
