Hi guys pls can anyone tell me what the Busbi photo frames look like and where they were in store, clearance or reduced sels etc? Also any birmingham bootsers have you seen these anywhere pls? Tia i would be very grateful for any help.

Got some john frieda volumising shampoo free with haircare voucher, not much else to talk about. Also my local was selling orbit complete with a reduced sel i think 39p and the h&B mag voucher 50% works so got a pack for 19p, only the strawberry flavour reduced, so look out for them, quite nice after lunch.

Happy bootsing

Mine was in the cabinet next to the cameras along with other more expensive digi photo frames. its only a small box cos the thing itself only has a 1.4inch screen or something like that anyway. I had to ask for it to be got out so I could have a look at it, and the lady then got the other one out and put that on a stand that was infront of the cabinets as she realised that at that price she didnt really need to keep that under lock and key!

Hi vick276 yes it is on both mascaras. HTH

What's this GWP? I didn't see it in store and I can't find it on the website. I'm always in need of decent waterproof mascara!

EDIT: Oh don't worry, I've found it on the website.

Hi, Just to clarify (before I try to do it!) is the warming mask a full size, mini, or sachet?

I went to boots in bury armed with all my malings vouchers and fragrance vouchers.

Reduced haircare has been used up, only sa few reduced sels though, picked up the last cw conditioner but never bought it as I didnt buy anything so had no hairy to use.

Couldn't see any sanctuary gwp, but still had no7 mascara and 17 ones left.

Clearance section was pathetic, didnt even bother having a proper look to see what it all was, but nothing of any interest to me. No7 clearance was same old little cosmetic bag with brush and mirror, aftersun and foundation. Still the same price. Also, some reduced blushers down to £4.50 (stickered) but still on the normal shelves.

No no7 acm vouchers, though quite a few botanics and the expert ones.

They didnt have the product i wanted to use the fragrance voucher on and there were no reduced perfumes i could see, so i left empty handed.

All in all, a disappointing shop

Oh, and i forgot to add my other disappointment that i discovered when i got home. Id printed out a 300 points wys £30 voucher from the acm, hoping the sa would let me use it with my 350 wys £40.

I was looking at it when i got home, and theyve changed the rules :mad: instead of 300 extra points, it now says that you get 180 offer points and the rest is made up of the 120 normal points!!! Thats hardly worth making a spend up anymore.

I tend to do a biggish shop every 6 weeks/2 months, stocking up on makeup or premium beauty, so i spend £30 and get the 300 points. I think ill now hang out longer in between and spend £55 to get the 500 online points with free delivery (the acm vouchers still says that they are "extra").

With the pathetic clearance and tillspits atm - i have no need for overpriced haircare, unless i can get it free of course - its barely worth stepping into boots stores these days.

Me again!

Not sure if this was mentioned some time last week, but if you like Elizabeth Arden then this .com offer is great!

There are three offers:

-500pts wyb 2+ products
-free 8hr body treatment cream 200ml ( costs £22) wyb 3+ products
-free millenium gwp wys £40 (worth £60, a bag with some sort of fullsize face cream/serum)

I popped three things into the basket, came to £49 and all three offers were added. Most products seem to have all three offers, but a mascara i picked didnt have the points, but as you only need two products for that it didnt matter. In fact, it works out better to make your third product one that isnt part of the points promo as then you receive the points for that product on top of your 500. Just check your basket carefully though.

Not a bad combo though, if you got 3 things for £55 you could get the cream, the gwp, 500 points, plus 500 from acm online code, plus points from third product.

HTH.

Hi there are two in the city centre depending on which end you are at. A little on on the moor and medium size on on fargate, best to multi map high street S1 for the larger of the two for directions otherwise i might get you lost.

I always find that the Boots down the Moor has more bargains than the one in the city centre. It definitely seems to have more reduced SELs. The reduced shelf is right near the back of the store near the double doors- usually hidden by a metal trolley.

The reduced shelf in the Fargate store is normally upstairs near the tills- but I haven't been in for a while so I apologise if its not there!

Also if you are going up West St, there is a little Boots there that often has good bargains in too. Have fun shopping in Sheffield :cheesy:
