Simpsons Uno @ £2.24 from £8.99

Please, please, if there's a possibility and there's any UNO in stock, please, take one for me, I'll pay P&P and the price you want - I couldn't find it even at original price - our local stores were out of stock before Christmas :eek:

Can you put a picture of this up (I have no idea what it is!!) and I will keep my eyes open for one. I am an Ebay seller so post lots of parcels, sending another one would make no difference to me

oh well i did get my wrap but god it was a struggle , there was NO WAY IN H@LL that any of the SA where going to let me use my no 7 voucher to get the price down a bit , i had 3 more than my jobs worth and a definate no from the no7 dragon , so just bought some foundation and the ltd edition eyeshadow pallet that i wanted any way , you are all so lucky being able to get it free with bogof items

Hi, Yes I did this on Wednesday when I got my wrap. It scanned no problem.

I really, really want a wrap, but I don't want to spend any money this month. However, I do have some points on my card which I could use up. Would 1 x glycolic peel@8.00 work with the free wrap if I redeem my points? I haven't been to Boots today and I am already getting withdrawal symptoms:D

The other day I used the 60%off boots Ibuprofen voucher - which I received when I joined the healthclub. Ibuprofen is on special offer at the moment @99p so with 60%off I paid about 40p for them. I'm not sure what to buy with the 60%off boots alternative herbal range. Any ideas?

Another visit to Boots today -
2 x No7 face serums + free gift wrap = £7.50
1 x Face peel + free gift wrap = £8.00
4 x Botonics lip balm - used 4 x £2.50 voucher = £0.00
4 x Nivea shaving foam - used 4 x £2.50 voucher = £0.76
1 x Yardley hand/nail moisturiser + free towel = £3.95
Total £20.21 - Without discounts and vouchers would have been £38.19 + I got 2 free gift wraps & a free towel.

I also picked up some large gift packs in Superdrug - Lavender & Spa - Both packaged in wooden trays - Ideal for presents, only £3.49 each. Don't know the original selling price of these.

Hello Ladies,

Don't often post on here, but thought I would today as I spotted quite a few bits in the Crawley branch today...

Lots of the half price No. 7 Glyco Peel sets left by the No. 7 counter. And lots of ladies looking at all the No. 7 stuff & all holding vouchers! The Glyco Peel sets had a half price sign by them, but nothing stating what their original price was, so not sure many people realised what a bargain they were with the £5 vouchers.

Lots of reduced make-up, suncreams & other bits upstairs on shelves near the kiddies clothes section...
Soltan Aftersun,
a few Sanctury Self Tan sets reduced to £4.99 (not sure if the new £2.50 voucher would work with these???),
Piz Buin self tan,
17 lip glosses (lots of different shades),
some reduced Time Delay & Danielle Ryman stuff,
lots of different Botanics bits all reduced
and other various Boots brand creams, moisturisers and shampoos.

Also, some Botanics wipes were reduced to 99p (got 3 with the £2.50 off voucher, so only paid 50p) - found them on the sale shelves with the other reduced Botanics stuff. There were quite a few packs left.

The ACM allowed me to print off as many of the vouchers as I wanted for:-
100 points for Umberto Giannini Dazzling Shine
150 points for Sanctury Spa Skincare
300 points for 2 selected Toni&Guy Haircare
and the Smile one too.
All had expiry dates of 27 Feb 2007.
Normally the Print Voucher option disappears after I've printed it once, but was able to keep printing them today.

And lots of the Magazines left too - both upstairs & downstairs.

And I have 1 question, please. I bought 2 of the No.7 Glossy Locks Hair Spritz things on Tues on BOGOF. Didn't use any vouchers or anything as they were for my Mum and I'd all ready used all my vouchers. Turns out my Mum had also gone and bought them the same day and forgot to call me to say not to worry, she'd got them. Tried to return them today with my receipt but they wouldnt take them back (went to the Baby Section counter). The SA checked with the Manager & they said they were cosmetics, so not allowed to return them. Explained that my Mum & I had just duplicated them in error, but they wouldn't have any of it. Should I try again in a couple of days, but go to the pharmacy or photo counter?

Thanks ladies!

Not a bad effort at all!! Just avoid the No7 counter. The ladies working there like to stop you getting good deals so they can keep all the stuff to wear themselves. I swear a No7 SA I saw the other day was wearing an ENTIRE eye pallette on her face :rotfl: along with enough fake tan to make her look Tangoed!!

Just have to thank you annapantscats cause i laughed so much when i read this i nearly wet myself!! - i've even come back and read it again!!!!:rotfl:
