    I still have a Times voucher to spend, but could not bring myself to part with it today without getting a Pamper bag too! My bigger local store had one poster advertising the Pamper bag left at the back of the store but no pamper bags anywhere to be seen. This store does stock the skincare. So off I went to the second much smaller store, but they don't have the skincare range, but have LOADS of the Pamper bags left! Not fair :mad: . Will have to decide what to do over w/e and perhaps venture further afield to spend vouchers :cool: .

    Can you buy the 2 products in the one store and ask them to mark the receipt to say you havent had the free gift and ask at the second store if you can collect the pamper bag there?

    good idea. might work if u get a very dozy SA!! or else i suspect they might say you are not entitled to it as you got one product free with the times voucher and quote the usually ignored "cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer" line!
    All men hear is blah, blah, blah, blah, SEX, blah, blah, blah, FOOD, blah, blah, blah, BEER:wall:
  • Just phoned local BOOTS to check if they had any sanc bags, he said offer ended Weds. Is that right?

    What are the current bargains to be had anyone pls;)

    I think the offer offically ends on tues 27th but some stores have run out of bags already and not getting anymore :confused:

    Boots in Ashford Highstreet (Kent not Middlesex) has lots of No. 7 suncare reduced to 1/4 price - some on stand right inside door and lots more upstairs (white stickers stuck on them) - and still BOGOF too.

    So with just one £5 No. 7 voucher I managed to get:

    2x Firm your body sun lotion reduced to £3 and BOGOF = £3

    Incredibly moisturising mousse after sun reduced to £2.37
    Shimmer & soothe lotion reduced to £2.12 = £2.37

    Total £5.37, so paid 37p with voucher!!

    I was tempted to by spend £5 for the sake of it to get another voucher, but frankly I have run out of storage space. At this rate I will have my whole extended family fully protected from the sun for years to come.

    The out of town Boots store in Ashford does not have these reductions and has run out of No. 7 vouchers too.

    That does make sense, but some people might be to scared to go see an actual person about it. At least some people light check themselves out with the half price kit and then be brave enough to go to a doctor.

    Oh those free condoms they give you in FPC and other clinics are awful, think I'm allergic - shame, I have an allergy that prevents me from Money-saving.

    I'm getting the feeling from some of the posts that the clinque free gift isn't worth having, am I correct? Don't want to waste money if it's not worth it.

    Im allergic to latex, so i get durex avanti ones from them :o

    The ones in the squeezy tubes are really really nice - they are sticky, but not too 'wet-sticky' if you get what I mean! They also smell and taste lovely :p

    The ones in the hard tubes (with the applicator stick on the lid) are much 'wetter' and don't stay on nearly as well.

    I'd recommend the squeezy ones but not the other ones!

    Did this go through free with the £5 parenting voucher? I went in to spend my voucher today, but only saw this at full price £44 and didn't think that it would work, so chickened out of it.
