Is the £2 off the Sanctuary easy to extract from the Wrap? I think I'm looking at two transactions on Wednesday - one of No 7 and then another for the Sanctuary (342/ACM voucher/Wrap Voucher) - but I don't want to be drawing too much attention to myself trying to extract the wrap!

Is there a loo nearby? I always take a short trip and open the bag/wrap and then take out the vouchers and go back and use them.

I did think about that but the loos are at the very far end of the shopping centre from Boots so it's not really an option. I think I'll go for the two trips option - it's not really out of my way.

I know you will all shout at me (I'm ready....) ...but re. the £2.50 vouchers; what is the cheapest item or best deal you can get with them?

I have tried scrolling back the pages but havn't been able to find out; if it has been posted just let me know what page number. Thanks.

Was in Boots London Colney today and they had No7 1/2 price electrical, nail care system £4.99 now, electric eyelash curlers £6.49 now, body massaging "thingy!" £4.99. Buy all 3 and get the FREE wrap!! my DD will be pleased on her birthday!:j

Thankyou all for all your wonderful ideas; i have been a lurker on here, but would love to 'join' and be a TRUE Bootser! :j

I think I'm going to comment on lots of posts at once - so sorry for not quoting.

Boot London Colney - is that near Sainsburys/M&S at all? If so I didn't know that was there and it's only one M25 junction away from me so well worth a look.

EA ACM vouchers. I've never got these to scan on miniatures. For the person who had points missing you can 'phone up the advantage card helpline (number on the back of your receipt) and they'll add them for you (thanks to the MSEr who told me about this at the weekend)

EA miniatures - they don't have these at all in the small store near me but in the bigger one they have the pilowmist, sensuous bath essence, sensuous body creme (like the pictures posted earlier) and another body creme.

Sanctuary charcoal masks and £2.50 skincare vouchers - this combination definitely works - I've so far got 8 masks using the vouchers and also using the 200 points ACM vouchers.

finally, I have a question about reduced items. I've found the reduced section in the small store here, but not in the big store. Are they generally in the same kind of area in every store or could it be anywhere? thanks

Picked up another Simpson's Uno if the person a few pages back still wants it...

I save mine up for holidays and trips so we can splash out and have a meal deal each... or even lend the card to my kids if I feel trusting and let them take it when they go into town. And who says I don't know how to have a good time?:o

In my experience the reduced items can be anywhere (they dont make it easy for us bargain hunters, do they??!!) I was in Purley Way (croydon...ish) Boots the other day and they hadnt even bothered with a designated reduced 'section'...the reduced stuff was left where it had always been, with a reduced sticker stuck on individual items, so you literally had to scan all the shelves looking for any reductions. (which of course I did as I am a hardened and dedicated Boots Tart :rotfl: )

The most useful thing I found for my Ladies £2.50 voucher was Nivea Visage Foaming Face Wash - £2.99 - £2.50 voucher - pay £49p. I buy this anyhow for my daughters but would struggle to find anything else. Cannot find a damn thing I can get with the mens voucher, especially since I have no men in the house, only two 12 year old boys !!

I LOVE Romford sales assistants! I was cheeky and asked if the peel went through with the wrap - its clearly marked as £8 half price, as I was refused it last week, SA did it, went through, so paid points, so it all for technically... free! So new voucher, voucher off the floor, voucher abandoned in basket, so got 2 facemasks, had 8p left to pay, on card, lol. Have about 6 vouchers, nothing reduced, but will do a big shop sometime.
