    The No7 mirror is down to £19.99 again does anyone know if the £5 No7 voucher works with it?

    Thanks

    after a few years ago when people were using the vouchers to get the mirror for £5 etc, they changed t&c on voucher.

    excludes gift sets, electrical beauty, beauty services, and price reduced lines.

    As anyone done it yet, do they stand there talking to you for ages trying to sell other products if so I won't bother :o

    I have a empty S&G Hand food could I take that for a swap would it be ok ?

    Oh and what are the freebies anyway ? :D

    I took facial skin care empties, but you might be ok with hand cream.

    How generous the samples are, and how long you have to listen to the assistant just depends on who you get I think!

    I found Clarins and Benefit the best, nice size sampes, and very quick chat.
    Estee Lauder spoke to me for ages, then just gave me 4 tiny sachets.
  • Went a few days ago. I exchanged two half empty 50ml face creams with the following:

    Clinique: 'Take the day off' make up sample 30ml. Good quality, nice sample. No waffle, quick simple swap.
    Estee Lauder: Advanced night repair 7ml. Nice little sample. Too much waffle from the over enthusiastic sales person who, bless her, didn't pick up on the fact that I could never afford the normal prices (i.e non-free!)...

    I'm sure it will depend on which store you go to, and what sales person you get.

    Good luck everyone, only two days left!!

    I recently used two vouchers, one for the No. 7 sponge, which (at £3.75) is one of the very few items priced at less than a tenner.

    boots.com/en/No7-Cleansing-Sponges_924477/

    I was advised I could use the 3 for 2 and the voucher at the same time, which would mean 6 sponges for £2.50 (2x 3.75=7.50-5=2.50) since they come in packs of two. Great deal, about 40p per sponge - but I never took did it- what could I do with so many!

    With the other voucher I was able to use it against the eyelashes. With the voucher, works out at £2.50 - bargain! I haven't tried them yet, but they look very pretty.

    Hope that can help some glamorous cheapskates out there!

    :p

    Not sure if this is any use to anyone, but I was in Boots Fosse Park (Leicester) earlier and I was buying 3 of the Frontcover OOTW sets. One of the sales assistants noticed the three in my basket and came to make sure I realised they weren't in the 3 for 2 offer. I told her I knew this and she asked if I would like a free gift as I was buying three and not getting the benefit of the offer! (even though I was getting my items at half price!)

    She went off and brought back 2 different items. One was a gold clutch bag by Guerlain, which has some make up samples in (one of which is a make up base with real bits of gold in it for radiance!) and the other was a Chloe small make up bag or purse with a sample of Chloe scented body lotion. I figured she'd give me just one, however she said I could take one with each frontcover set.
    So I took two Guerlain bags and one Chloe Purse. Nice little additions to the Christmas pressie pile!

    Did they have many OOTW sets left in Fosse Park. Popped into Hinckley today and they had sold out :(
    Smashed through my weightloss target. Looking at 120lbs+ loss. BMI over 40 down to 20.5. Training hard to get body fat under 20%, not far to go now :j

    Sounds like a fluke, not part of the offer that others can count on getting elsewhere. Boots saves back the bonus gifts when an offer ends, and sometimes they sell them or will put a sign up offering them with some other product you buy to promote sales. If there was no sign up, the SA was just being nice and pulled some goodies from the stockpile.

    Had plenty today at the front of the main store in Leicester if that helps.
    Just because your paranoid does not mean they are not out to get you ! :rotfl:

    Can you use the No 7 voucher on the No 7 christmas presents stuff? If so, can you still do 3 for 2? I'd like to buy 3 of this one as presents: http://www.boots.com/en/No7-Mini-Beautifier_1221085/

    Thanks!
