I am thinking of going to Hanley and/or Festival park on Sunday, anything I need to know or avoid?

Festival park- suncare hasn't been stocked up for days. None of the £5.50 items at all. A few lipstick bags at £6.50 and CAN be bought using the £5 no7 voucher. A bit of reduced botanics by the main tills if you are lucky.

Hanley- £5.50 lip shimmers and hair spritz in stock- no body buffers. Bought burgundy bags from here using the £5 no7 voucher- also included in the 3 for 2, but voucher WONT work on the lipstick bags here. Downstairs there are loads of stella artois sets that are rumoured to go 90% off tomorrow- previously thought to be monday. They would then cost 50p for the tube and £1 for the tin set. Recommend not paying at no7 counter. Reduced toys and wrapping also still available. Someone posted that childrens books were scanning at 75% off.

Did anyone notice the boots staff in suits who were observing customers and staff in festivel park today? They were very professional looking i was wondering if they could see through me.I have to say most of the staff in festivel park is friendly and approachable and todays offers were alot more generous in that store.The reductions in the clearance section do not amount to much at all in hanley all i see is alot of handcreams.I still need an eyepencil i have 2 vouchers-is it better to get 2 eyepencils and 1 burgundy bag as a 342 or just the 1 penicl on its own.-I need more points! Saving another voucher for next week.

:T Hooked on this site, haven't been on Tesco thread most of the week!!

Managed to get the Time Delay Starter Kit today reduced to £4.99. Gave the voucher in the change one thing booklet - £0 to pay. It wasn't the one advertised but it still went through, even though I was told last week it wouldn't.

Also used the 100 points on cold and flu relief items reduced to 99p from
£1.99 so they were in effect free.

Got the Botanics Body Booster Collection small gift pack for £2.99, used my 100 points and the SA pointed out to me that it was on a linksave and I got a free eye cream.

Getting braver by the minute so decided to use my 300 points, plus £1 voucher on multi vitamins = 59p to pay.

2 x Lee Stafford R U protection at £1.49 each - £3 voucher = £0.

So as you can see had a cheap day today, shame that these offers end soon now that we newbies are beginning to get the hang of this.

Thank you to all who have contributed in making this such a fun, friendly and moneysaving thread.:T :T :j

Hi, you say that you managed to get the Time Delay kit today but it wasn't the one advertised on the voucher, please can you confirm which kit you bought as i'd like to give it a try

What colour eye pencil are you after? There is one in the lipstick bag-
'amazing eye pencil in brown'.
Is there one in the gift bag starting wednesday? Someone posted a great picture earlier.

Hi, yes it was the Facial Pamper Kit.

This was on offer at £4.99 last week but as I was quite green I asked the SA and she said no this wasn't the one on offer it was the Time Delay Starter pack. So I bought that for £9.99, used my £5 time delay voucher, leaving £4.99 to pay. However, the facial pamper kit worked out totally FREE today.

Has less items in but full size. 50 ml cleansing mask, 50 ml purifying cleansing balm, 5 ml intensive restoring treatment, 2 muslim cloths and face mask brush.

Good luck.:beer:

I havent tried the 6 for 1!! im new to all this and cant seem to pluck up the courage to try it. I think that shelf of body bars has been empty since this offer started :rolleyes: i havent been able to find one!!

Does the suncare/no 7 offer finish on wed too?? I get paid then, will try to pluck up courage then :rotfl:

Finally plucked up courage to try the 6-4-1 this morning at Hull Kingswood. No problems! Had none of the £5.50 mini treat bags or the lip/eye shimmers but loads of glossy locks! Bought 2 of those and 4 bottles of suncream. Tried to disguise it a bit with some nappies and a couple of Botanics mitts (and free moisturiser of course!). No Botanics body bars left and the mitts were well hidden right at the back of the store behind some body brushes.

None of the No7 masks left, gutted cos I really love them. Loads of the lipstick No7 giftbags left at £6.50 but absolutely nothing else left in the sale. Oh and no vouchers left either :rolleyes:

Still, am chuffed with what I got :T
