Thanks for those - yes mirror does look good actually...still don't really need one though, not even for a present as I have such a stock after the post Xmas clearance

The sauna looks good, I might use that. How come you get that for free when it is more than £15 though? Do you still get a free wrap with it as well?

Sorry for so many questions, I am going to make an effort to keep up with the board this time.

would they send the voucher or is it just in stores

The voucher is only available in store but I havent found any of these hand treats in any of the stores I have been to.

If anyone has the new No7 Weekend bag if poss could they take a pic.

I really want one but my nearest store does not have any. Asked the No 7 girl and she never had a clue what i was on about.

Thanks

I've got a pic of on my phone, not very high quality I'm afraid... I'll try and email it to myself as I've not got the cables.

*scuttles off*

Edit: erm... seems every time I prepare to send it, it changes the pic from dodgy poor quality to blurry fuzz... will try anyway but don't expect anything wonderful :rotfl: must try harder this lunchtime

Has anyone ever been refused the mirror/facial sauna if SA noticed glitch?

Sorry to hear your trip wasn't successful Sassi! I had no luck with my parenting voucher with the mirror the other day as the SA noticed my total before the voucher, which was £50 something, then after voucher £30 something and was like, hang on this isn't right! So got the manager to override the voucher to just take £5 off! Annoying! I was bought heaps of stuff too, but I think part of the trick is to perhapse distract the SA so they don't notice the total as much before the voucher or something? I think a Saturday kid would definatly be a good idea to go to aswell.
Other than that no clue how people are getting such large items like mirror without SA noticing, I'm so jealous! I should have gone for something smaller, but really wanted to get mum this for mothers day!

Really want to get a mirror for my mum as she is unwell. I have a parenting voucher, and picked up a mirror in my local boots and out of nowhere a lady appeared and put a wrap in my basket telling me it'd be free with the mirror! (as if i didn't know that!)
She said 'we only have two of those mirrors left, aren't they a great buy?'
ME- 'err yes they are'
SA- i can put your other items through 1st for you and then you'll have a no7 voucher to get another £5 off it too'
ME-(innocently) 'REALLY?'
SA- yes, and you'll get another voucher when you get the mirror too'
ME- 'ooh lovely,thanks for your help, is it alright if i pay downstairs as i have more bits to get'
SA-I'll look after the mirror here for you, and then you won't have to carry it around, just come back once you've got all your shopping, i'll put it through in £5 lots for you so you get maximum no7 vouchers'
ME- um, okay, thankyou.

i then wandered aimlessly, as didn't really need anything else and couldn't afford anything other than the nappies etc and 2 free cameras on bogof i already had in there.

i went back to the lady and said 'hi, i don't think i'll take the mirror today, as it'll be bit difficult to carry with the buggy'
SA -'if you pay today you can pick it up another time, as like i said we only have 2 left'
ME (redfaced) 'ummmm no i think i'll risk it, and come back another day, i'll just have these bits for now':o

I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!
i daren't try to do it with parenting voucher as she would DEFINATELY have noticed the glitch, so i didn't get one as store was about to close.

now i'm really too nervous to go in again in case she appears again! She sounded like they were her personal items, and was so helpful compared to anyone else i've encountered in that store... and its the only one near me.

Has anyone ever been refused the mirror/facial sauna if SA noticed glitch?

I managed to get it in the Bury st edmunds store,last wednesday but went to a photo counter upstairs and the girl DID notice but was so nice I rubbed my belly and said "Bout time I had a nice treat!" and she was great,really lovely,but then I had hubby with me and he makes Phil mitchell look soft so dunno if it was that,lol

Sorry about the quality, it wasn't good to start with but the resize to email from phone made it skew-whiffy! :mad:

Gives a general idea though, it's £20.00 on the shelf and is prob about 25cm wide and 20cm high (incl handle). Only estimated, I'm terrible with memory and measurements :rotfl:

Hi,

I have a 250pt voucher when you purchase Hydroquench (from the wrap).

What is the cheapest item to buy? - if also have £5.00 No7 voucher to use.

Cheers
