    Just joining this thread. Do I just print all the vouchers then and take them to the shops and they give the samples. Sorry to be thick, I need pointing int he right direction.

    hi, dont worry about asking, we all have to start somewhere. :)

    print out one voucher per counter youre goign to visit and simply go up to it and say something like 'can i swap thsi voucher' or 'i got thsi off teh internet' or somethign liek taht.

    good luck! :)

    oxford street today

    john lewis: chanel foundation, estee lauder night concentrate
    debenhams: estee lauder perfume
    house of fraser: various issey miyaki samples
    selfridges: 2 very big generous estee lauder perfume samples, paul smith and giorgio armani samples

    nothing in 2 diff biotherm according to their SAs...

    Well done! :T

    I'm glad you managed to get some samples from the Estee Lauder SAs at Debenhams - they were not very 'friendly' yesterday, when I showed them the printed coupons. They told me they had run out of everything - yeah right. :rolleyes:

    Too bad you weren't lucky re Biotherm. I was really impressed with the Biotherm SA at Selfridges. Don't forget to ask the Biotherm SAs in Debenhams MK - they are very nice methinks. ;)

    Once again, well done, enjoy! :T

    hey MBN- thanks again for ur info!!! helped alot when i was on oxford st today. too bad biotherm told me they had no samples- i knew they had some :(

    have u been to the biotherm in debenhams MK? they have a big clear vase- stuffed with lil tubs of purple, blue biotherm samples on their small table.
    i used to pop in debenhams at lunch hour and help myself to a few when the SA is not around :) collected a handful of them at may-june and the vase disappeared. but its appeared again last weekend...
  • Was this worthwhile and did anyone get any decent goody bags/ freebies?

    Thanks for the info. I know about the vase - I went there too last weekend. ;)

    As for the help, you're more than welcome michica. Enjoy this 'sampling activity'! :) I don't know about you, but I feel really great every time I approach those counters, attend free make-overs and get the chance to try out their products (By the way, I've just discovered that my skin loves Origins products. I'm really amazed with their effect on my skin :j).

    too bad i didnt grab ANYTHING from the vase last weekend, i really sud of. was abit scared and didnt have any vouchers on me- incase i get stopped by the securities.

    okay, deff going to make a 20 miles return trip to MK this friday, all the way from leighton buzzard (home) to grab someee :) and hopefully there will still be some chanel mascara left in house of fraser...

    yuppp i feel great as well when i approach those counters, and feel even better when i get freebies!!! i havnt been to any make overs because i cant afford to splash out on products. oh yeah i heard origin products are great!!! the mushroom serum thing that comes in a green bottle is very good apparently!

    anyways, lemme know what u fink about beauty counters in MK and any RnR for u in the tesco? I found kingston tesco very hard to deal with sometimes... bletchley one is more laid back, but the cs women seem scary in MK... i popped in debenhams MK twice last week, and the same SA told me they dun have any perfume samples.... damn how come i keep running into the same girl?

    Well we're going to Sheffield for the day in November. Never been there but I understand there are a couple of shopping centres so will take printouts with me and see how we go on. Will try Hanley at the weekend though as a starter.

    Are they usually dated? My bag is getting so full of Tesco, Olay vouchers etc the handles are starting to break :rotfl:

    hiya-sorry i have bad english...when u said usually dated, u mean the voucher?

    some are, some arent. i handed over an estee lauder voucher (deadline late sept) today for some night concentrate lotion this afternoon in debenhams, and they gave me the sample. I understand from the previous posts that that samples have ran out everywhere, but it does worth asking.

    another estee lauder SA gave me some other samples since they didnt have anything that was in my vouchers...

    hopefully someone will post some new vouchers soon :)
    and good luck with ur starter weekend!
