  • Another great haul from Boots Purley Way....

    3 x Hair products for under £2.50 using £3 vouchers (split into 3 different transactions)
    No 7 foundation for £4 instead of £9. Okay, this was a cash splurge for me, but I do like this stuff, and I will obviously need a slighter darker shade for summer when i have a bit of a tan, so decided to treat myself! :p
    Botanics foundation for £1 reduced in the sale and got a free eye cream (worth £6.99!!!) Darn, forgot the 100 points voucher in the mag :o
    And finally I got my little mitts on the lipstick-design No7 bag full of goodies with a voucher for £1.50 :T Been after one of these for ages (well, since I started this mad Bootsing thing last week!!) so chuffed to bits.

    No signs for BOGOF on No7 suncare, and when I asked the SA said they were'nt doing the offer. But as they only had about 4 items left anyway (and none of it the cheaper stuff that works well on the BOGOF + 342 + voucher deal) I wasnt too dissappointed!


    ^OMG, i went 2 days ago and walked all around boots trying to spend my NO7 voucher and looking for bargains but couldnt find anything, where was the No7 bag, are there anymore left? i would love to go back there if they have stocked up, the shelves were empty when i went, there was only 1 aisle of reduced items which is at the back, have they added anything else to it. PLEASE tell me more :), also what did you get with your 3 pounds voucher, i looked all around and found the john freida serum for 3.30 which i paid 30pence for, not really a good buy for me cos i didnt really need it but just wanted to spend the voucher:o

    a little query -
    I've been trying to work out the best way to use my No 7 250 point voucher I received with my beauty bag yesterday......

    You have to pay actual money to use a points voucher. If you pay on points you cant use it.

    My own query: Is it true you cant use the £5 voucher for No 7 and the above 250 points voucher together? Got a nasty feeling you cant.

    i have also done this and it worked and it worked for my sister as well and she had the crabby SA

    Anyone still unsure of trying the No7 suncare BOGOF & 342 loophole as it's not advertised, JUST GO FOR IT! It definitely works, I've done it 3 times in the last 2 days. Went to Meadowhall Boots this AM and got a Spa giftset for £5 from £20, took it to checkout, paid, got my voucher, straight back into the shop, picked up a No7 lip screen thingy (£5.50), a Glossy locks spray and the pre-tan little gift set (£6). Also picked up a John Frieda frizz ease spray (£3.99). didn't say a word to the SA, just thought I'd let her put it all through with my vouchers and see what the till told her to charge. Result? £1.99 to pay!

    After buying OH some lovely full length boots from Clarks (£20 down from £75) and 18 pairs of Totes bedsox from Superdrug for a total of £3, I calculated I'd spent a total of £30 in Meadowhall today - and walked out with goods 'worth' £152. Crazy. :rotfl:

    Went to a small Boots today and got 2 x botanics hair minimising moisturiser things reduced to 50p each, 2 x botanics night shift moisturiser, 1 x no 7 lip pallatte (sp) reduced from £7 to 50p 1x no 7 lipgloss reduced to £3 pack no 7 clear pore things £7.50 reduced to 75p and a reindeer choc lolly reduced from 99p to 24p

    Didn't have any 100 pts with mebut paid £1.97 for some strange reason & for in excess of £40 worth of goods- must stop soon, finding it hard to get into my bedroom- having to reorganise every cupboard in the house to fit it all in!!
  • Does anyone know if no7 reduced items (specifically the Shimmer Dust) works as 3for2, and can be paid for with the £5 voucher? I looked in today, (planning what I'm going to buy tomorrow when I have more time!) and they had none of the purple gift bags left, but loads of those shimmer things which looked nice.
    Thanks!

    hi

    today i got two no7 sun items and the reduced shimmer dust today used the 5.00 voucher and paid 1.50

    my friend did exactly the same with the no7 sun items and the reduced whisper lipstick and the same again with the limited reduced nail varnish from the same range, she paid using her vouchers and 1.50 each time

    Okay, by the No 7 counter is a display rack with reduced items, at the bottom are some of the bags with lipsticks on, they have great little items inside and are reduced to £6.50. There were about 5 left at 5pm today. DO NOT pay at the No 7/perfume till. Go to a normal checkout and it should go through with a £5 voucher.
    I got Lee stafford Shine Head, John Frieda Serum Finish Spray and John Frieda Emergency Treatment with my hair vouchers. These are products I know are good for my hair so it was worth the few quid I spent.
    No sale items left in this store so just look out for the No 7 and haircare bargains.
    Good Luck! :T

  • Thanks to Bedshapes' post of yesterday, I did the No7 Sun BOGOF/3-4-2- offer 3 times today until there was no 'cheap' items on the shelf! :o

    I asked the No7 SA if they had more stock of the hair spritz thingy or the lip balms and she said that some of the Sun products on the BOGOF deal were being discontinued or the packaging is being changed and they are doing this promotion to shift old stock!

    Just back from Boots portsmouth Commerical Road, the Sun Care BOGOF sign still on there!

    I was trying to use the 5 pound off voucher, but then not success. because the final amount of i got to paid is 3.75pound, and the SA scan the voucher, and there is 1.25 to refund, so the SA didn't know what to do. the SA was very suprise and ask if they were on special offer.
    What i did buy is No.7 body buffer x2(5.50pound) and No.7 deep cleansing mask (7.50). and finally come to 3.75

    I'd tried buying another expensive item (10.00), but for some reason, the finally total come up to 10.00pound.

    so finally i go for the 3.75pound transection and didn't use the voucher. but will go there again on sat.

    BTW,there still quite a bit of 75% off product in that boots as well.
