all boots stores near me has ran out of the botanics lip balm. shame, i love that lip balm. ! they had lots of botanics reduced tho. grabed some bargains there aswell as the 100 points voucher out the mag.

I couldnt get on with the lip balm it felt like wax & my lips kept sticking together. I did love the body cream though

Managed to get:
BOOTS Cold & Flu Tablets 99p (100pt coupon from mag)
EA Peppermint/Nutmeg Pillow Mist £1 (100pt coupon from ACM)
BOTANICS Intensive Lip Balm £2.50 (£2.50 Facial voucher & 100pt coupon from mag)
Paid £1.99 & got 4pts & 200 Bonus pts. :j

Didn't notice until just now, the botanics pt coupon didn't scan :eek:

it maybe the Essential Aromatherapy voucher that wasn't scanning - it happened to me twice and the SA had to do it manually and said they'd had trouble with this one, Just so you can all look out for it!! HTH

I just wondered if anyone knew if the Boots stores sell expensive items like the Xbox or Wii (i've seen them on Boots.com) as I have about £160 in points so far (thanks to everyone here) and would really like to save up and use them on something worthwhile. My local stores are Uxbridge and Slough and I don't really recall seeing them, only cameras, thanks.

just been instore and exchanged no7 body suncare kit and got stella rose absolute instead-lady at perfuem counter was lovely but it kept coming up as a linksave so had to go to no7 counter to query it,both Sa's decided it wasn't worth worrying about so allowed me an exchange i only paid£5.50 differnce and gained full points(120) for a £30 spend-now i am miserbale because i forgot my double points coupon.Couldn't find any skin perfection vitamins to use with my voucher for 250 points and 60%off vitamins with healthcare mailing, tried to use the new packaged sanctuary charcoal mask but sa at photo counter wouldn't scan it as someone else had tried earlier on and it wouldn't go through-so annoyed with sanctuary

Kingston sells mp3 players and mobile phones. I managed to redeem my points for an ipod just before Xmas.

oh I didn't know that there was any EA stuff as cheap as £1! got the botanics shaving gel for 50p (using the 2.50 voucher) and got the 100 points out of the mag, feeling very pleased with myself!

Is the lip balm suitable for the boys?

Ie - does it have a matte or gloss appearance when applied?

depends if you like the taste of axel grease! :rolleyes: i can't stand it - could have got 4 free ones at the weekend but chose to keep my vouchers for something else!
