Also, Boots are issuing the £5 off vouchers on Wednesday wys £5 (I think) and they're for £5 off No7 (and Ruby & Millie I think) so you should be able to get, using the voucher, at least 1 x No7 lip & eye screen for 75p, or 1 x No7 Glossy Locks (large bottle though) for 75p too. Possibly even more if the 342 is still on. (Sorry, that doesn't appear to make much sense, but it's early )

On some clearance shelves in Boots, they're also doing disposable waterproof cameras for £1.50 but bogof.

Please can I ask where can I get the Boots vouchers? Are they giving them away online or instore?

you spend £5 instore and they give you a £5 voucher back to spend on no7 or ruby and millie. We are guessing it starts on wednesday but it is uncomfirmed yet. They do it all the time a few months ago we got 2x £5 vouchers back on a £5 spend so £10 worth of goods for a £5 spend crazy!

I'm trying to put together a hamper for my aunty. She's off to St Lucia on Nov 6th, for 5 months and so she'll be away over Christmas.

My aunty just loves flip flops, so I've picked up some of them to put in and also I found a flip-flop shaped photo frame in Wilkos to include. I thought about putting some suncreams in and also thought about getting the family (my mum and my other aunts) to record messages to put on a CD for her.

I did think with her travelling, it might be better for me to put the hamper together in a beach bag or something - not sure where I'll be able to find a beach bag now.

I'm just not sure what else to put in and I was just wondering if anyone could please help me with ideas.

Thanks in advance
Katie

I know you said you've got flip flops but what about these - http://www.hawkin.com/find/keyword-is-flip+flops/product-is-08663

rusty hope things go better this afternoon will be thinking of you.
I bought the Jamie Oliver journal from WHSmiths for 99p. I have also ordered the Jamie Oliver At Home book (half price on line but not instore - crazy how prices vary!). I have bought these for OH to go in a hamper with chilli oil and a couple of food things from Boots (one is olives can't remember what the other is!) which I will use points for.

Thanks Is being in the capable hands of a solicitor now ... she took all my paperwork and told me she will be in touch :eek:

Tesco's now do some Jamie Oliver grinders in with the herbs and spices they can be quite expensive but there are some which are reasonably priced I bought Jamie O's Cook book for fathers day and I am waiting for some more special offers on the Ministry of food which has just come out then I may get that for him for christmas aswell as some of the sainsburys christmas JO range. that is generally 3 for 2 and he had a bit last year and loved it!

thanks rusty I still have a bit of time to look around before Christmas:rotfl: I didn't think about JO but thought the journal was too good to miss and the cookbook goes with it. will have a look in Sainsburys. I have seen JO stuff in Home Bargains too.
glad it went well this afternoon and hope the solicitor sorts it all out - and fast!
