Hi Libby,

I got one at the weekend with the £3 off voucher from the ACM and triple points. I was on my period so I've had a chance to test it and I must say I would never go back to tampons again! They are clean, easy to use and of course money saving!

The 2 different sizes are if you've had a baby naturally or not and if you are under or over the age of 30 - don't really understand that one...

If you're not happy with it you can also send it back to the company and get a full refund

thanks, for the info, Id like to give it a go, but I wonder what are you supposed to do if you're out and in a public loo with no sink to rinse it out? It says you should rinse it out so would it be worth buying two? to have a spare in your bag?

ZZTOPGIRL -
Glad you got on ok at boots. I noticed you said you had a sad lamp are they any good as I have been thinking about getting one for a while but the cost etc had put me off.If anyone else had one I would be grateful for some feedback .

Hi Cat72, I have an SAD sunrise alarm clock (Boots sell them) and I have found it helps but I also have a "Litebook" LED SAD lamp which really really helps (not from Boots). I know what you mean about cost, I think I paid about £150......but they had (not sure if they still do) a 60 day money back guarantee if you didnt find any improvements. Lets just say that after a week of using it no one was going to get that lamp away from me!

Have a look at this website for more info, it might help. I have the original Litebook but I notice that they have a new updated model as well.

i am shocked. Went into boots today to a no7 sa at the no7 counter, politely explained that i had used no7 essential moisture cream and come out in spots-Got it out of my bag(no reciept) and SA opened till took out £7.25 and handed it to me.I asked if i had to fill a form she said no & smiled .I thought i was hallucinating so i didn't buy anything and walked out.

Answer here: http://www.mooncup.co.uk/menstrual_cup_faq.html

Not tried one yet myself but know of a few people who've tried them and think they're great.

Mooncup is a bit pricey i still prefer towels, Have had enough of being poked down there!I bet they invent a vibrating mooncup next with "soothes menstrual pain" as the logo

I never get anything from the machine apart from competitions and a list of offfers in store. I have only just started Bootsing and already have a mountain of free toiletries from Tesco. Am addicted to getting something for nothing - better than gambling I suppose. I have had the card and earnt about £22 since January. Is it dependant on anything?
Thank you to everyone for all the useful hints so far.

My local is the Kensington Branch, and I usually go in through the make up section doors to pass the MF area and suss out chances for a box... there it was NEW DISPLAY... "Free with £15 spend: MF Manicure set PLUS a black box with make up brushes" (tied together with a red ribbon !!! Promo for Mothers day... so i swiped one of those quick, since my last MF box was scuppered at till for not having an item, i picked up a MF mascara (down from £9.99 to £7.99... plus with FREE BOX in kensington branch)... and a lipgloss for £6.99. Lipgloss kept falling out of basket (grr! does actually happen) so i held it in my hand as i shopped.

I don't believe it!!! I take a couple of days off work and this happens...Kensington have the bloomin manicure and brush sets...arrhhh! I won't be able to get there until Monday, by which time they will probably have all gone:mad: were there many COOkie? well done for spotting them, and getting some:D
