hi everyone. haven't been to boots for ages but i'm after a blue little touch leappad for ds2. they are reduced on the website to 18.50 but i don't want to pay postage. does anyone know how i can find out which of my local stores stock them please? have emailed & had no reply & the phone numbers just keep me on hold for about 10 minutes which will end up costing me morte than the postage in the end! wanted to get it while still triple points so was wondering if anyone here knows if they stock them in dewsbury, birstall, the white rose centre or wakefield please?
thanks in advance.
btw, i know toys are 3 for 2 but i dont need anything else so if anyone local wants to join together & get their 2 toys essentially bogof let me know!

edit - phoned individual stores but the only one likely to have them - wakefield - is not answering! pah!

Just in case you cannot get one from boots, try TK MAXX if you have one nearby as I'm sure they have some that price or cheaper at the moment xx

Has anyone used the No7 Advanced Renewal Anti-Ageing Glycolic Peel Kit thingy? Noticed today it is reduced to half price (£8) and was thinking of trying it but would be interested to know what other people thought of it?

TIA

have used this-it is fabulous
did have a slight reddening of the skin after use but think the secret is to make sure that you use tons of moistuiriser after

thanks mum26, think there is one in wakefield. lady from boots is phoning back cos it says 29.99 with ticket that says 18.50 reduced from 24.99 but scanning at 29.99!
looked at website again & it is having a nightmare - i click on leappad & it brings up cleanser or something!!

Can anyone who finds out why No.7 mascara has been recalled let me know please?
Would be very grateful.

I was hoping to use the extra points voucher from the Boots magazine against this product. They were out of stock at my local Boots for a week, so I asked the SA why. she said they had only received a few in and they were sold within minutes. A few days later and still no sign of a delivery, I asked a different SA. She said they had been recalled and are being repackaged. Not sure why though.

update - lady from boots phoned - she says they are 18.50 but scanning 29.99 so to ask fer her at checkout!

Was in my local boots this morning and decided to check the machine for offers.

There was one for 150points off professional hair care etc.

Tresomme was on an end as a BOGOF (3.49 each.)

with triple points and the 150 points coupon for the advantage machine makes these less than £1 a bottle.

I was told by the No7 SA at Bristol Broadmead store that the casing was defective, prone to cracking & breaking up, it had happened to her, hence the recall & it would be back out once resolved. I didn't ask for the points voucher to be validated against a similar product as I already had other No7 items to the value of £15 all with points vouchers. I might try this another time though...

I am sure this is probably already on here, but I snipped open the free bag & there is 250 points voucher against next No7 item &...

450 points voucher against ANY Boots brand vitamin or herbal product. I checked online & there ae a few products at or under £1.99 & on 3 for 2 & you might even be able to use this on the vitamin E range, most items are 99p or less. On herbal...Boots Alternative Indigestion Relief £1.49 also 3 for 2

The 450 points for the vitamins is only for the Republic of Ireland, it is 300 points for uk.

Damn! Am really annoyed about this now as I feel like a right cheat telling you all that the product was recalled - it was what I was told though.

Twice as annoyed as I spent my 250 points on No.7 voucher on another product and will now have missed out on the savings just because some SA lied to me.

Think I will have to send a quick email to customer services for leading me - and subseuently you lot - astray.

Very sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Hi, just to say the SA in my local boots told me it had been recalled too, so don't feel bad!

Thanks Mrs_S :-)
