    I have three £5 no7 vouchers which I have been trying to get out spend, but am now wondering what I can use them for with minimum cash outlay.

    Look out for the reduced price cosmetics that some stores have. Mine has no7 foundatiion and mascara for under £5.

    Also, if you use the voucher in the latest H&B magazine for 1/3 off Stay Perfect mascara, you will get it for 66p.

    Thanks for the suggestion mrsw. I looked in the big Boots and no no7 reduced, but walked to the small one and found the box sets reduced from £7.50 to £5. SA said they won't go through with voucher, I asked her to try which she did and it did work - which I thought it would do from reading others had got the box for £2.50 after using voucher. SA seemed surprised, especially when I produced another voucher for a second box.

    Used up the £2 Maybelline voucher on an Eyeliner-matic, £2.49 so 49p with the voucher!

    And found a reduced No7 HighLights Illuminating Powder for £4.75 so free with the voucher! :D

    Me too!

    Also got the magazine with my first transaction (my 2nd copy), went outside in order to rip out the 1/3 off Stay Perfect Mascara voucher, so got that with my second £5 off coupon for 66p. But was followed by the security guard, having been clocked by him earlier on in the store, I must have looked very shifty.
