  • Hi, Please can you tell me what Glitter babes sets you have got for 75% off as my store has a whole shelf full with the green present sticker but no mention that any of them are 75% off. These would make great and cheap pressies for all my little girls friends. I could then take them to the till and get them to price checked. Many Thanks, Nikki

    I am still trying to pluck up courage for the 6 for 1 even though I have done athe 3 for 1 a couple of times! I'll kick myself if I don't get brave enough before it ends.

    Does anyone know how the land lies in Wrexham town centre store? I would love to know what they have there (Body bars/ Sun cream/sale items) and what the SA's say about the offers going through. Anyone know if they have any lilac bags that go through with the voucher?

    .

    I plucked up courage and went through with 6 suncare products. No sign anywhere to even say it is BOGOF. SA put all the items through and when the price appeared of £12.50, she said it seemed very cheap. She studied the receipt before giving it to me. I had to ask for a £5 off voucher. Didnt dare go round again with the voucher but phoned my sister to tell her to do it. She bought 6 more sun lotions and her SA called someone over to check it was correct. The other SA said it was correct as she had already done the same thing this morning!

    Ragtimeplayer - we do have great SA's in Wakefield don't we :j

    I've been to Wakefield again today. I've NEVER had one SA question or comment negatively on any offer I've used. They are very pleasant! Even the No. 7 SA put all my items into smaller transactions so I could earn the greatest number of vouchers!

    So today I got a fantastic deal on the No. 7 Mask (the ones with 4 sachets in a box). On the shelf it said that they are now 1/2 price so 3.75 each. I took 3 up to the pharmacy counter and asked the SA if they were still on 3 for 2. She scanned them and said 'yes'. This is my receipt from that trip:

    No. 7 Mask 7.50
    No. 7 Mask 7.50
    No. 7 Mask 0.00 (3 for 2 kicks in)

    then

    Mask saving 3.75 now 3.75
    Mask saving 3.75 now 3.75
    Mask saving 3.75 now 3.75

    so 3.75 came off THREE times (even though above the 3rd one is free!)

    Boots cold meds 1.99 now 0.99 (+used 100 pts voucher)
    Lee Stafford shampoo 3.95 now 0.99 (used 3.00 voucher)

    redeemed 5.00 No. 7 voucher so total came to 0.73! yes seventy three pence!!

    The masks came to 3.75 TOTAL when you calculate the 3 for 2 that came off, plus half off all three. So the other 1.25 of my voucher went against the other items in the transaction. I also got a total of 113 points. So in effects boots PAID ME 40P TO TAKE THE PRODUCTS AWAY!

    In another transaction I did the 6 for 1 and it worked fine. No comments at all from the SA. Also got botanics clay mask for 1.99, used 100 points voucher and got free mens moisturiser worth 8.75. Got more cold meds at 0.99 and used 100 points voucher, got kids vitamins 1.55 and used 1.00 off voucher from change 1 thing booklet. Got more haircare and used 3.00 and also used my 5.00 No. 7 voucher for suncare. Total to pay: 6.47, points earned: 243, savings 51.25

    I was hoping this was going to be my last day using these vouchers, but I still have one left and it would be rude not to use it :rotfl: And I might as well stock up on the kids vitamins while I can get them at 55p a bottle!! Will the madness never end?????!!!!!

    Hi Joanne, which masks were these please? I might look out for them.

    I have been to the Ricoh Arena Boots today in Coventry and they have loads of the Glitter Babes stationery sets with a clearance sticker on them for £2.50. Not very much else reduced though.

    I havent seen a single reduced Botanics or Time delay item anywhere in Coventry. But I did manage to get my first 6 4 1 today. :j The SA seemed more concerned whether my 450 points had gone or not!!!:rotfl: (Points were: 100 Botanics, 100 cold and flu and 250 No 7 from the pink bag)
    I spent £5.99, got back 504 points and another voucher and saved £55.49. I still have two more No 7 vouchers and quite a few £3 ones :D and I am going to a Virgin Vie cosmetics party to night :eek: :rotfl:
    :hello: Danigrace :hello:
