500 points for 2 x Benefit items (buy 2 x £2.50 sharpeners)
300 points on selected 2 purchases of No7
500 extra points online this week if spending £40
if you've not already used it, 500 point code in conjunction with above when spending £50 (see codes board)... or 1000 points if spendinf £75
Ummm.... i think that the above all works... was trying to do one myself but cant think of enough to buy to make £40 :rotfl:

does 300 points on selected 2 purchases of No7 work when you buy 2x suncare? and where do you get the voucher from?

me neither, do not really do online, I am bad enough when in the shops. think I might have to find something else to aim for.

not sure if this will help someone but i went to the oxford branch today, and there were 3 shelves of stuff on clearance (first time i've seen that many!) - one for hair care, with patene hair mask sachets going for 49p etc, one for bodycare with quite a bit of loreal stuff, this cooling foot/calf spray thing which i thought was the best bargain for 99p and limited cosmetics from ruby and mille, fcuk cosmetics (not sure if this will work with fcuk bag?). also many advent packs for 50p (2nd floor, out of 4 advantage machines in store only the 2nd floor one is working) also the SA was putting other clearance stuff on 2nd floor as well but i didn't check.

yippee! Went into boots today and right next to the sanctuary facial items i spotted a little wooden table with 1 mini sample left and 2 facial skincare vouchers of £5. I grabbed just 1 voucher and left the other for someone else(did not want to be greedy) Then changed my mind and went back but it had been taken!I decided to buy the white packaged facial starter kit £12 so i can try all the items , also got a orange body wash £4.50 and the free bag,from the no7 counter i found a concealer brush at £5.50 so got that also needed some brut a/shave for dad and some hair colour for mum so those and 2 nailpolishes.
wandered around and decided to pay at pharmacy- Used £5 sanctuary, £3 mag sanctuary, £2, wrap sanctuary and £3 orange bag sanctuary vouchers.Plus 100 points from ac machine and £5 no7 voucher.
all the vouchers worked no problem, the £12 kit shows as £1 on the reciept so till took all facial vouchers off it, then a further £2(off wrap) as linksave so i got £16.50 off sanctuary items for £3.50 plus a £10 bag aswell or £2.50 if i consider the points.50p for a good quality concealer brush.Paid with £5.63 gift card and a little bit of cash

Can you do it 'backwards'?

Buy the Ipod (0% credit card?) so get lots of points, and then use all the points to buy presents through the year, rather than spending to get points. Hope that makes sense.

Edit - this was in reply to Louise, post #2603

Did Boots used to have baskets with a little blue tray inside for those cosmetics that used to fall out between the bats? I'm sure I remember them... (either that or I've a premonition of a great idea :rotfl: ) I thought maybe i'd seen it in a specific store but i've not seen them in any stores for months now....

They have those in the baskets at the store in Plymouth - very handy....but i still managed to lose a lipstick today :rolleyes:
