    hi GeCon
    If you havnt got any no7 vouchers to start off i would get a mag free for card holders go out side cut it out

    Then get enough stuff (pay over £5) so you could buy two 99p botanics body bars and then get two free products then buy other things so the total you pay is £5 then go to the till get your voucher

    Then get your no 7 things and hair things i have always used the no7 voucher and hair one seperate but some have used them together and its worked

    So is that what I need to do? Go into Boots and "buy" the magazine to get the 100 points coupon. Then buy all my stuff (excl. bag and suncare products). If over £5.00 I should get a £5 on No7 voucher which I can then either use for the bag or on the suncare products. How much should the total approx. amount to on the suncare? Also, what sort of makeup item does it need to be (or which ones definitely not)? Sorry to be a pain.:o

    you could topup £5 and get a voucher or spend £5 on some other products you need and get it and get your magazine scanned while your there.You should then have your voucher- suncare items are in yellow packaging or blue(for after sun, white for pre-holiday) choose 2 items if you want to try the 341 first, for example no7 lip&eye shimmer and hair spritz(both £5.50 each) from suncare range and a nailpolish(£6) from the 342(makeup and skincare is on for 342) bogof+342 so you pay for more expensive item£6 nailpolish but use the £5 no7 voucher and you pay £1.50.
    The free voucher can be used on jemma kidd makeup and ruby mille but it is best used on no7 right now!
    don't worry practise makes perfect and your not a pain.

    Wasnt brave enough to do the 641 but got 3 for £1, saving £16:j

    Need help here please!

    Asked a sa about the bogof suncare and she said it had ended this morning and was really rude to me about it, i felt about 1 inch tall. She demanded i pay for the item i wanted a pricecheck on there and then but had to tell her twice i wanted to do further shopping, she demanded (didnt ask) i bring over what else i wanted to buy immediately so i could pay for it then, i had to repeat myself and say i had further shopping to do.:mad: Am still upset about it and it was about 2 hours ago. :(

    I went to the suncare section and found the No.7 sel saying its bogof but theres hardly anything there. I got 2 lip shimmers as my bogof and the £6 self tan kit as the 3rd item.

    I caught a woman who asked a Clarins sa for a pricecheck on the No.7 secret trimmer, the sa told her it was £11.99:eek: but then chucked it back at the poor woman and walked off with her nose in the air, so i grabbed the woman, told her it was half price and if she had a voucher, to use that too as she would only pay 99p. Ive made somebodys day!

    When i finally paid for my haul, the sa gave me another voucher but didnt scan it.

    So my questions are....

    Will i be able to go back into Boots and claim the sa didnt give me a voucher?

    Do i complain about the way the first sa treated me and told me the bogof offer had ended? And about the rude Clarins assistant who was trying to rip off nice lady who just wanted to buy the secret trimmer?

    I had managed to get my dh to go for a coffee with a friend so i could shop in peace, and ended up feeling even worse than before, maybe i should have a badge that says im a full time carer, please be nice to me!

    That is disgusting customer service zztopgirl, I bet you felt really annoyed by it - who do they think they are treating people like that?? The ones on my stores Clarins counter could do with their products, especially if they did a cream to put a pleasant face on!!!! :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Can I ask you mentioned the secret trimmer?? I was after one of these today, asked for a price check, was told £11.99 - so are they really half price, and could use the £5 No 7 voucher with them and how do you know this, did you purchase one??

    Keep your pecker up love, don't let em get you down ...... :)
    I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure!!
    ;) :rolleyes: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    do you need a voucher for botanics offer or is it just a promotion on these items

    You don't NEED a voucher, but you WANT to get the 100 pts Botanics voucher out of the current magazine

    Can I ask - in what store did you found these? I couldn't find any in my local store even before Christmas :mad:

    I was watching SA put out reduced stock and pounced when she put some of these out, she said she thought they were 1/2 price but I guessed they were 75% off and I was right.:T

    The small pvc bag with the cream piping (£5.50) works on the bogof/3 for 2 glitch- but not the self tan starter kit (£6) that looks similar but has brown piping.

    Does this mean they will work 6 for 1? I wasn't brave enough today and only got 3 for 1 on the suncream.

    Is this the one?

    Anybody attempting any of these deals - if one SA says no, just remember to try another!
