    Got two more lots today from two different stores. Both were out of mega cheap vits so had to buy the £1.59 ones. In one store the lady just said to me 'I suppose you are from Martin's website!' so I just smiled and said yes.

    Oh... a quick question whats the best why to use the No7 Coupons ??

    I used mine on an £11.50 mascara that came with a really nice free eyeshadow selection. You could maybe try getting a cheap item as well and see if the 3for2 on no7 products which is currently on, will apply?

    I did use my £5 voucher on Boots No 7 in my basket today to 'mop' up the negative balance on the Vitamins. So even though I had more expensive vits I ended up with a £9 No 7 face cream for £3.19.

    The 79p vitamins had all gone in Read1ng, but I still got a very good deal by buying lots of £2 - £2.50 price vitamins that I will use. The £1 off healthcare voucher, from the ATM or from the mailings also works which helps :-)

    Not very happy, the one I drove 30 minutes to with ss had no cheapy vitamins and only 3 shots on the counter...I couldn't work out wha to do so left it. Went to my local. Got a couple of maternity items, there I was, 8 months pregnant, ankles swelling by the second and the sa was confised and called over her colleague who said they wouldn't do it and I'm only allowed one shot per THREE vitamins! I said it doesn't say that on the display, she said one per transaction so I left it. The other sa was apologetic but standing there for ten minutes whilst they tried to work it out, rather than just letting me pay is rather annoying.

    I hope it doesnt end today. Cant believe i was in oxford st on sunday, had the details but was too lazy to look properly for the shots.
    Theres about 5 boots in such a small walking distance.

    Did get the whole lot today, but lucky me i got the £1 off and 100points for buying mascara. So they paid me 35p to take the whole lot. The mascara was £5 :)
  • Thanks OP, tried this today and got 6 shots, 6 vitamins and some E45 baby was and a sanex shower gel (already half price and used my 25percent voucher) and paid £2.26 for the lot!

    The sales assistant looked confused then smiled at me and said she'd thought she's them wrong and laughed at my total! I then went back in to te store with my mum and got her some and she couldn't believe it either!

    Going to try another store tomorrow!
