HoF in Leicester didn't have any left, although the assistant did have a good root around for them. So I went to Debenhams, preparing my excuses for not having a makeover, but the assistant didn't offer, just told me that they only had the green ones left. So I got mine (green was what I wanted) and I'm happyleonie wrote:Will you let me know if you are successful as I want to get one from there but due to looking after my sick daughter I cant get until late in the week!

If you go to asda for the mag you can get a £1 off voucher for NW. There was a stack of leaflets next to them on shelf. So get the Benefit palette for only £1.80!0

debenhams in the white rose centre haven't got them in yet.
boots in leeds city centre have just given out their last one.
debenhams in leeds city centre gave me one but i said i didn't have time to stay for the makeover (not my thing).
to be honest i'm not sure if the gift is worth chasing. it's very small and i would never pay £16.50 for it.0 -

It mentions it in the free magazine Style stalker on the last page. NW readers get a free walk-ins welcome worth £16.50, each palette contains eyeshadow, cream blush, lip shine and mirror. Simply take this style stalker page to your nearest benefit counter to claim your free make-upper makeover and walk-ins welcome palette, one gift per customer while stocks last’
The top 3 palettes are the ones you can choose from. If anyone in your family/friend group loves make-up get this, I love Benefit make-up, and it is worth £16.50 so you can essentially get all the girls one of these for the price of the mag which is £2.80, that is not alot to spend on a FAB gift, plus you get a magazine to read!! It is supposed to be one per customer but if you buy several magazines and go to different outlets, such as Boots, Debenhams, House of Fraser etc they won't know
I have already mentioned this in the magazine thread but I don't think it will get enough exposure so I am putting it up here for everyone to take advantage of.

Thanks for that. I got mine today but wouldn't pay the full price for it. They tried to get me to buy some items after the makeover which was very basic but I just said I'd think about it.Lost my soulmate so life is empty.

Hi Torry Quine, I am in Aberdeen too and was wondering if it was Boots or Debenhams you got the palette from?:hello:0 -
I got your tip today via email about the Benefit make up set, so in my lunch-hour I bought 2 NW mags as I've got 2 nieces who love Benefit. Anyway I legged it down to Oxford Street where there are many Benefit stockists. I tried Debenhams and the Large Boots store, but no joy, then I tried House of Fraser and they had some left. I was told I had to have a makeover which would only take 5 mins, and then given my freebie. The girl let me have 2 as I asked nicely and had brought two magazines.:j
So if you're going to Oxford Street try House of Fraser, but they're going fast! :money:Mortgage to clear asap! - [STRIKE]£148,874.38 [/STRIKE]as at 1 May 2013£79,176.55 May 2018£59,516.06 July 2019November 2020 £35,914.620 -

These are still on sale on the Benefit website, so not old enough to be "out" yet.Mortgage to clear asap! - [STRIKE]£148,874.38 [/STRIKE]as at 1 May 2013£79,176.55 May 2018£59,516.06 July 2019November 2020 £35,914.620 -
Well no luck for me today: all gone in Cambridge Debenhams and Boots. Apparently Boots gave their last one away earlier today and were telling people the couldn't have one until they'd have a make over.'In penguins and pearls we'll drink and we'll dance, 'til the end of our days, 'cause it ain't left to chance that we win...'0
