    well just came back Boots, not really much of a successful trip though!
    Went to both stores in a town near me, neither one had MF boxes :(
    In one store I bought a no7 lip lacquer for £9, but used parenting club voucher for the £5 off, also used the 200 points coupon for it from the ACM, but on the till the coupon took the whole £9 off, leaving me 0 to pay, but unfortuantly the store was dead quiet and no que so the SA questioned it and said sorry got to get this checked! SO ANNOYING! lol so anyway eventually another SA had to override it so i had to pay the £4! what a pain!lol So if anyone is thinking of trying to get away with using the voucher for the whole price of the item make sure you buy other stuff too!
    So after that I popped to the other boots, got reduced botanics stuff with the mens vouchers, both SA's on the tills said it wouldnt work but I said how another SA who was reducing the items said it would (this was true), and lo- and behold it did! No stupid boots mags though so missed out there on the 100 points!! I tried to sneak a max factor black bag through too, but even though went through as 0 they said it was with spending certain amount on max factor :(
    So trip was slightly a success but not really! I wanna max factor box! boohoo!

    Can anyone confirm what is the highest priced product from the No7 range that anyone has managed to get free with the new £5 parenting voucher. I know someone said they got the peel and someone got the wipes. Anything else?

    I got 2 suncare products @ £8.50 each & a free wrap with the voucher

    meant to say, not sure if you know, but you can use the £2.50 voucher and the 100pts botanics voucher in the magazine in conjunction with one another!

    Use them with the 100 points botanics voucher for something that is £3 or less, that way regardless of what you buy boots are paying you at least 50p to take it away.
    Real men never follow instructions; after all they are just the manufacturer's opinion on how to put something together. :p

    lol! which one? the nivea stuff is quite cheap, i might tell my OH he can have the 3 vouchers and "treat" himself (as long as its all stuff under £3!!) lol


    OR perhaps I could say Boots are discriminating against men and say my OH wears eye make up so why cant he use his voucher against the eye makeup remover?!?
    :rofl

    i happen to know if i said that, I wouldnt have a boyfriend by the time we got out of the shop! lol! I love the botanics eye makeup remover (and just for the record: he does NOT wear eyemakeup!!)

    Nivea shaving foam is £2.69, so 19p after voucher. Think the shaving gel is a smidge more costly by about 20p or something, i'm sure someone can confirm

    No mf boxes, nothing much else either. Had my delivery of stuff from online Boots today, so that cheered me up! Managed to get a few bits in the sale online.
