            has anybody tried debenhams whiterose, going tomorrow but don't want a wasted trip0

            Got two from Boots Merry Hill (Dudley) yesterday. Had checked with the (friendly, smiling and absolutely lovely) SA beforehand that they had stock, then went to purchase the magazine.:)If it's cheap, I'm cheerful!0

            I went into Doncaster yesterday to collect my freebie...Boots didn't have any but there was a cupboard full in Debenhams & a lovely sales assistant too! HTH someone!0

            I picked up mine on Thurs from Boots in the Oracle Reading. They seemed to have lots left then.
 I did book a makeover but I'm probably going to cancel it. The sales assistant made it seem like I HAD to book one. To be fair, I didn't challenge her as I thought at the time that I'd quite like a makeover, however I think now that I'll probably end up buying stuff I don't really need.
 The products are lovely, especially the face wash. Apparently the eye cream should be enough for 4 weeks, though I'm not convinced it's going to last that long!0

            Oooh is the cha cha tint good? I saw the advertising but the girl said it wasn't out until Saturday. I love my benetint, high beam and posie tint so quite fancy this one too!
 Hi lisaberry - sorry only saw this today! TBH I felt a bit bad not buying anything and I asked what was new - and the poor SA went away for 5 minutes and came back out of breath with boxes with the Cha Cha Tint not meant to be sold until today (Saturday). It's lovely, not sure I'd buy again in a hurry for the price but the colour looks great on! 0 0

 So I came back today and went to the Benefit counter and the girl told me that I actually had to stay for a make-up trial in order to get my freebie. I looked again at the coupon and said hang on a minute, it doesn't say that anywhere. She was really snotty and said oh my boss has said that we can't give them away unless you have a make up trial. The cheek - I bet Grazia have no idea about this!
 Anyway she was doing someone else's trial at the time so I had to extend my lunchbreak from work to hang around for 15 minutes as she told me to come back after she had finished dealing with her client. When I came back 15 minutes later she told me actually she wanted to go on her lunchbreak, couldn't be bothered to do the make up trial and just gave me the freebie anyway.
 What a waste of time! Oh well...at least I got my set in the end.
 Just to say - nothing about the trial mentioned AFAIK in the Grazia ad offer thing. And I think it's a cheek of them to expect you to stay and have this trial - really she's just trying to sell you the makeup or other items. *I* bought something simply because I did feel bad about not buying anything but there was no reason I should have bought something and the SA was so nice anyway that she didn't make me feel bad even if I didn't buy anything.

 I got one in the Boots in Buchanan Galleries - but this was on Wednesday so I don't know if they will still have stock now. Very helpful girl, and she made no mention of needing to book a makeover or anything.0
