Yes:T im trying to think up another use for them. An eye warmer on a freezing cold day?:eek: A mini hair curler for someone with very short hair? Anyone else got any ideas?

I dont like having hot eyeballs so i wont be using mine again, but for 99p i cant complain.:rotfl:

I spent 20 mins on one eye - made them look a little better, but I wouldn't pay more than £1 for them!

Baby girl needed some new clothes as she's growing soo fast, shaving gel for husband and the rest are christmas presents for this year (I spread the cost over the year) and photoframes are mother's day presents (with a picture of my new baby girl for both grandma's).

Quite pleased with today's shop.

Welcome! and very well done!

Total nightmare in Boots today! I introduced my friend to the wonderful world of Boots and she was itching to spend her recently accquired £5 parenting voucher and really wanted the No7 mirror (though not enough to pay actual cash for it obviously!). Anyway she took it to the till with a wrap and everything scanned through fine and the voucher took the total down to zero, but the SA was having none of it and called for the manager who overrode the till and charged her £14.99! She went downstairs and got a refund but ended up with no mirror and no parenting voucher, she was gutted. Not a very good start to Bootsing, I don't think she'll be going again for a while!

Mine are useless too, do peoples LED light up on theirs? Mine doesn't and they don't even feel hot so im sure their not actually working properly! tat!

my led lights up glitterati - my sisters doesnt and doesnt warm up either.

I really like them and it did make my eyelashes curl - better buy than the not-so-secret-sounds-like-a-moped-trimmer! :rotfl:

Ah looks like I have a broken one then!
LOL yeah the trimmer thing was useless XD

Someone recently asked what was the lowest spend to get a free Sanctuary bag? I bought a reduced £1.74 skin spritz (orange) and a reduced £2.94 skin toner (white). I used a £3 off coupon from the mag and so the £2.94 toner came up as free. I then used a 150 points from the ac so effectively only paid 24 pence!!!

24 pence for 2 products and a free bag - very good value

I really think I am addicted to BOOTS!

bootsing is sooooooooooooooo addictive :rotfl:
