i have just bought 3 prima magazines at Tesco and they all had the christmas cheque books in. In each of the books are £3.50 of vouchers that you could hand in at Tesco. There are a couple of vouchers in the book I am not sure will scan at Tesco, although they do have bar codes. There are also a lot of other discounts/savings in the book. However, i could not find the coupon on page 143 in any of the books, as "diluvsdicounts" found.
The magazine costs £2.30. I will be buying more when i visit Tesco again.

I think diluvsdiscounts bought an Oct issue - no cheque book of coupons, but the 50p coupon in the mag.
Got my Nov copy in Tescos today - also looked in the bag to make sure the 'chequebook' was included.
Thanks for op on this :T

I will be getting some more from whsmith with my 200 whsmith bonus points voucher. so i can get my hands on more christmas chequebooks.

Anyone had the Lancome mascara in Elle yet? Lancome mascara samples are usually a bit stingy, so if it's a tiny one, it's probably blaggable at the counter without purchase anyway. Otoh, if it's the same size as the recent Chanel mascaras, I'll buy the Elle.

Also, which brand lipstick is Essentials giving away next month? Thanks!

Same thing here. Very friendly and prompt reply to my email, and received booklet of vouchers in post.
For those who intend going out to buy Prima -NOV issue, just have aquick glance in the plastic bag, you should be able to see/feel a booklet in the bag - about the size of a large postcard, but obviously thicker as it has LOADS of lovely coupons inside.;)

I haven't got the mascara yet, but the advert states it's a 2ml 5-day sample.

To me, that sounds a bit strange as 2mls should last more than 5 days (I've got one of the Boots No7 small mascaras, out of a gift bag, at the moment and it's 3ml size, and definitely lasts a lot longer than 5 days! :rotfl: )

I think its their own brand as it says free lipstick and no brand is mentioned so i guess it their own

Same here, not a happy bunny. Bought my copy from Tesco. I've just emailed Prima - hope they'll send me a booklet.
