  • Just bought some Tweezers and veet wax strips via gift card - I've Changed my mind about them!! Could I take these back for a refund (I've got the receipt) are they 'returnable goods'?? if so will they give me another giftcard or can i get the cash??

    Would be grateful for a reply - thanks!!XX

    Anybody :confused:

    Are Tweezers/wax strips classed as 'cosmetics'?? - could I return them??

    Does anyone know how long the sanctuary free bag offer is going to last? Is it specifically for mothers day and therefore ending next weekend (it is next weekend?) or will it last longer?

    Success!!

    I got the last 2 massagers one for me and one for SILs birthday ,sent OH to pay for the first one with voucher while I shopped for more bargains! Added BOGOF toothbrushes incase I wouldn't get a voucher for £4.99!

    Second shop:-
    2nd No7 massager
    Picked up 2 scrub bars from Sanctuary Spa and a gift bag (forgot to check for voucher but was lucky!)
    Got a £1 botanics after shave soother (to use with 250pts voucher!)
    Also a botanics mini body boosting kit at £1.25 (4 mini body items in a box!)
    So paid with £5 No7
    250 pts botanics
    Save £2 Sanctuary voucher
    And a little cash about £7 something!!!
    Got 250 extra points and another no7 voucher!
    The SA was lovely and said ooh I never seem to find these bargains and even double checked my Botanics points went on my card!

    So of course I now have more vouchers!!
    Got a mag too ,but couldn't find the skincare Sanctuary stuff.....fancied the eye gel .
    have to try next week!


    Isn't MSE a great site?
