Have been looking everywhere for one of those MF Brush Sets but cannot find them anywhere. Is there any chance that someone could pick me up one in a store where they have got them? I could swap for a MF box or just send you a SAE with return postage. PLEEEEEEEEEEASE! Please pm me.

ill try for you this week - would love to swap for a mf box

Loads (about 3 dozen) of avent packs today in Walsall, Park Street. On a stand at the very back of the store, in the baby section near to entrance to baby changing room.

Not much else to report apart from they have the warming charcoal mask sachets back in stock. The new packaging ones are 5ml bigger than the old ones so get the new pack if you can. Got 6 of these today with vouchers and 200 points for each one. Plenty left on shelf.

Used up the last of my mens vouchers on the £2,79 L'oreal mens shaving foams for 29p each after the voucher.

Wombled a complete voucher and half a voucher (ladies half) on my way round

Finally, the tube of Olay night cream in my MF box was not being properly sealed. The crimped part at the top of the tube was open and there was no cream in it. So please check for this if you have them stored away for pressies.

I'm pretty sure the ones priced at £9.99 are NOT the same sets as those which some people have managed to get free. These £9.99 sets were never given away as GWPs. Someone else can probably confirm though.

You are looking at the wrong ones by my reconning. You should be looking for a smaller pack in a clear pack, they have brown handles

The £2.50 skincare voucher usually applies to facial products so if the travel bag is body items (shower gels,body scrub,body lotion etc.) and your botanics item is body lotion,that would be the reason.

Oh yes body lotion:o The travel bag was facial (cleanser, toner, moisturiser) but the SA couldn't get it to go through, even though she thought it should have.

Probably already mentioned previously but if you have quite a few vouchers left and not much money (like me) then I've used the last of my vouchers on GARNIER SKIN NATURALS ULTRALIFT FIRMING MASK - LIFTING EFFECT WITH ESSENCE OF CHERRIES (RED AND WHITE PACK).
It's a 2 pack of masks for £1.29, so, 4 masks for 8p when you use facial skincare voucher.
HTH if anyone's feeling a bit skint.

Good day at romford - they had another No7 box from 2005 there, £3 each. Bought one and got one with points. Also found loads of reduced stuff, a titania body gel from £4 to 50p, a silver loreal eyeliner for 50p, a glamour puss body powder and puff for 50p. Also got a half price MF lipgloss and free box (she did say "Well, we're not meant to, but i'll do it this once!"). Found another double voucher, which I then gave to a woman looking at botanics, and got another voucher back as I spent £6

Yeeeha!!!!!!!!

Sadly I still have not thought of a good excuse. I still have loads of mens £2.50s but doing a 70 mile round trip for some shaving foam might get HWMBO in a lather :rotfl:

And I had completley nothing on the all the cards i tried in the machine last week as well!

I did a little tally last night of everything I'd got for free since I've started Bootsing - this is just stuff from 342, points that cover the cost of the item, or the skincare vouchers - things that worked out totally free, or I was paid to take away. I could make another massive list of savings that I've made on other products.

18 x Sanctuary charcoal masks (skincare vouchers + ACM) - would have cost £32.22!
2 x Botanics wipes (skincare vouchers + Magazine) - would have cost £5.98
1 x Botanics lip balm (skincare voucher) - would have cost £2.50
2 x large Smile toothpastes (342 + ACM) - would have cost £1.98
2 x small Pillowmist (ACM) - would have cost £2
1 x Essential aromatherapy body creme (ACM) - would have cost £1
1 x Essential aromatherapy bubble bath (ACM) - would have cost £1
1 x Large Sanctuary shower gel - with the sparkles (342) - would have cost £4.50
1 x small Sanctuary sparkly shower gel (342) - would have cost £2
1 x Sanctuary salt scrub sachet (342) - would have cost £1.29

So that's a total of £55 worth of products that Boots have given me for free and I still have 3 skincare vouchers to use!

Oh, and I got a no 7 wrap too, but I'm not sure how much that is worth.
