    Decided to just buy what I wanted at 50% and be done with it rather than risk not getting what I wanted to save a few pounds.

    Having made me decision instore to buy there and then and stop checking stock, in my haste to get all the things I [STRIKE]wanted[/STRIKE] needed before the parking ticket clocked into the next hour, I stupidly forgot to hand over my vouchers for extra points spending, or split my shopping up to maximise No7 vouchers.

    When she handed over my 1 No7 voucher at the end of a large spend, I realised what I'd done and was mortified. I mentioned it to the cashier about refunding everything and doing separate shops to get more vouchers, and she looked mortified too. She point blank refused to give me more vouchers.

    Decided to leave it - have far too many toiletries and the No7 vouchers end up costing me money (£1.50 here and there all adds up) and the total points spend, oh well. What's done is done.

    So just a reminder to you all, vouchers vouchers vouchers! :rotfl:

    I did the same thing this morning. Got a couple of slimfast milkshake tins and Elle gift sets and forgot to split my shopping so I have got only one N 7 voucher. Oh well, think it's time to get some fish oil capsules to improve my memory;)

    Balham in SW London has not much left at all. Lots of Shampoo and Condition sets, Mark Hill ones? I think there are a few Gianni Umberto ones as well.
    There isn't much else at all.
    Lots of Star Trek things, playing cards I think. Sadly no socks ( mate bought them, they were very cool).
    And that's about it :confused:

    Hi Karen

    The fort has been dreadful anytime I have been there tbh. Have next to nothing left so unless they have put anything out in the last 7 days or so then its a no go.

    Have you managed to find anywhere good? Everywhere I have been is terrible practically nothing worth buying left.

    Im in edinburgh but Im in Glasgow about 4 times a week. Through here is dire also :(
    Only really interested in toys as my babys 5 months old so trying to stock up on things for his first bday and then xmas. And see if any older toys for my other boy! Thanks for replying to me, at least I can rule the fort out now :cool:
