    thanks, but iv just rememberd. i have the £5-off NO7 voucher too!! damn

    The Christmas eye colour palette is £9.50, or £4.50 of money after the voucher, which would go nicely with the £11 item to go over the £15 for the bag... And you get 200 points from the machine for that.


    I suppose the only issue is if they'd kick up about the No7 voucher and the Parenting voucher used together, not sure of the terms of each. Perhaps easiest at a till other than the No7 one...

    Didn't have these when I went last night :-(
  • Forgot to mention ... for any of you who have received 200 point voucher for buying a botanics product (from parenting club mailing) ... I used my voucher when I got the glow lotion and razors and it went through ok.

    ... so - 31p razors, free lotion and 200 points back too :)

    edited to add: also I got a 55% off multivitamins voucher from health club mailing ... I used this with my £1.69 vitamins and used the 300 points from bag at same time. 300 points for £0.76p spend :):)

    I know it isn't as good as getting them for free but the small Boots at the Charing Cross end of Sauchiehall Street were selling off the following No.7 Gift sets. I presume these have been free gifts in the past.

    The box is a pink and turqouse candy striped box and contains:
    • Moisture Drench Lipstick (Bare)
    • Intense Volume Mascara (Black)
    • Stay Perfect Eye Cream (Vanilla)
    • Perfect Lips Pencil (Nude)
    • Soft and Soothed Gentle Cleanser
    • Advanced Hydration Day Cream
    • Awakening Eye Gel
    They have a lilac "make up" bag which contains
    • Stay Perfect Lipstick (Glace)
    • Stay Perfect Nail Colour (Pearly Pink)
    • Full Impact Mascara (Black
    • Protect and Perfect Beauty Serum
    • Uplifting Day Cream
    • Intelligent Colour Foundation (Medium)
    • Younger Longer Hand Cream
    The other one was a pink make up bag with:
    • Moisture Drench Lipstick Chic
    • Intense Volume Mascara
    • Stay Perfect Nail Colour (Pearly Pink)
    • Intelligent Colour Foundation (Medium)
    • Soft & Soothed Gentle Cleanser
    • Soft & Soothed Gentle Toner
    • Advandced Hydration Day Cream
    Each had a voucher inside but these were out of date although they did have a sign on the shelf telling you this before you bought them.

    I bought one of each at lunchtime (not actually realising what was inside them) to put in with my nieces' christmas and when I went back to work the girls I work beside said they would have liked them too. When we phoned the shop they put some by for us and when we picked them up the girl said they were flying off the shelves. She said they had plenty of the boxes and lilac ones left but they didn't have any of the pink. However by this time the shelves were empty and she brought them from out the back of the shop so if you are going to try and get them better to ask.

    Anic - Correct, these were free gifts in the past.

    Hi

    Just to mention that the 10% off voucher from leaflet, double points voucher and £10 off £170 spend can all be used at Christmas shopping evenings.

    Last night I bought £352 worth of toys, cost £201.50 with 5610 points on my card. If you take off the points value that is £352 for £145.40!!

    The next Christmas shopping evenings are on 29th and 30th November and these will be the last ones.

    The £10 off £170 was sent on a card to my home , advertising the Christmas shopping evenings and the 3rd voucher on the 10% off leaflet is valid from 29th November to 5th December. The double points came in a mailing entitled Gorgeous advertising Christmas products and can be used twice.

    Hope that this helps someone.:j

    I just tried it to see if I could figure it out ....
    Did you log in? I noticed that when I went to checkout - it didn't show my points but after I had logged in then it came up with 1653 points

    ...just an idea - hope you get it to work

    all the best, pp05
