    just to satisfy my curiosity, as I honestly think they do not exist!! Could someone post a picture of the botanics body bar which accord ing to this site are 99p ( is that correct) I look in every boots I go into and still have not seen one. I think I'll find unicorn hair on BOGOF first:rotfl:
  • Can I ask why the Pink Change One Thing booklet is so popular? What's in it I could be using? :p

    Can you use all 4 of the Sanctuary vouchers in one transaction? ie if you spend over 10 can you use-
    2.50 off skincare voucher
    2.00 off 10 wrap voucher
    200 points ACM voucher
    200 points Change 1 thing voucher

    In theory this would mean you would essentially 'pay' 1.50 for 10 pounds of sanctuary products.

    Is this right or have i imagined all of these vouchers???

    there is a coupon in it for 200pts if you buy sanctuary products over the value of £10. You can use them in conjunction with the other vouchers for sanctuary I think,

    I just stock up with essentials
    Smile 3 for 2 toothpaste + ACM voucher for 100p = £1.18 (i think)
    Meal deal or a drink (because bootsing can make you hungry and thirsty)
    cough sweets
    Choc

    Easilly can make a fiver shop just from just essentials, its not a bad thing to have 9 tubes of toothpaste! Or just try and cheap and inspect baskets and the floor carefully!
