From my post earlier I didn't have a very good morning - 641 on suncare didn't work only came up for bogof. Put £20 on gift voucher, but didn't get another £5.00 off No 7 voucher which i was really hoping for. Really want one of those lipstick bags, and found some in a different store only when I asked the no 7 lady if they were for sale she said no there were free if you spent £15 so wouldn't sell me one. Is she right or could I have bought one. I was tempted to take one to the till to get a price check, but No7 lady was guarding them like a hawk. Anyone know if there are any in Kingston (Surrey) store.

The lipstick no7 bags are pirced up as £6.50, I bought one today and used one of my No7 vouchers so £1.50 to pay. SA put through fine, no probs. Perhaps go back tomorrow, when the No7 SA isnt on and ask a normal SA to scan for you X

Well, I treated myself to the Davidoff cool water purfume and free hoodie top today, with my points. I ended up with the 50mls for £21 which I was planning on spending less, the SA talked me into getting the larger size as it was currently on offer at the same price as the 30mls one????? I actually thought the prices were £12 for the 30mls and £17 for the 50mls, so what happened there I dont know!!

Just checked on the website and the normal Cool Water woman doesn't have a third off, so is £21 (for both 30ml & 50ml... odd!) :sad:
Cool water GAME woman is included in the 1/3 off though
Getting really impatient waiting for Mon for CS to get back to me about whether we SHOULD be able to get the hoodie with the 30ml.
Will of course post my result on here if they ring as promised

In response to questions about sizes of hoodies, the ladies one is "medium" and the mans "large", although the girl I was shown wearing the ladies one was a tiny little thing, so gonna buy early Bday pressie for OH and keep the mans top for myself :T

I asked in the Bath store on Thursday, and was told that they weren't for sale, and were the No7 GWP as the wraps had run out. Today, there were signs up over the wrap signage saying the same thing.

it would seem that some stores have the lipstick bag in the clearance area for 6.50 leaving 1.50 to pay after the voucher whereas other stores that are giving it away as a freee gift with a spend over 15.00 seem to be scanning for free, so you could try and sneak it through with any purchase as a few other people have been doing, these bags are def worth the 1.50 i got quite a few last jan when the 5.00 voucher was on, they had loads left in our store that all disappeared when the wrap offer came on so i guess these will appear again soon

[I ended up with 4 of these, they do them in Henna and horse chestnut, coconut & almond oil and camomile. They are Boots own make. I got them last year when they were on offer and they work fab, got some nail& cuticle sanctuary cream that was reduced to £2.25 to take it over the £5 spent for yet another £5 no7 voucher.

Just realised, slap on the forehead for being such a dozy mare!! I could have used the 100 points voucher from acm for the sanctuary, damn and blast!! Sod all in offers for me today in acm ( there never is on a saturday for some strange reason!!), but the 100 points for sanctuary was on there! May have to go back and get nother one, just making sure I use the voucher this time!![/QUOTE]

Hi.
All my Sanctuary points vouchers from ACM have been on Skincare (New packaging) only.Says displayed in skincare.Just check on yours as it may not go through with nail cream.

which store did they have them in???

Sutton, I guess they don't have any wraps left, but there weren't any signs to say to. I'll try the 2 in Kingston tomorrow, and hopefully they will have some. Can't have 2 bad bootsing days in a row!

I heard someone asking in the Ormskirk store this afternoon about these but hadn't realised what they were.Anyway SA said no they were not for sale,I wonder if that was someone off this site?

I don't normally go bootsing on a saturday so when I went today, I was shocked at the rubbish vouchers in the atm :eek:

I was only offered competitions/150 points on a £20 spend and 100 points on Sanctuary, is this normal for a saturday?

I was also gutted when I spotted the Max factor boxes for the very first time and I couldn't get them!

I tried upstairs and they were going to put them through with my Sanctuary item, free with a Times voucher but she was new and didn't know if you could combine the offers :rolleyes:

Tried again downstairs and even though it was a young girl, she still knew about the offer and said you have to spend £15 yada yada, I was willing to try again but hubby was having none of it!

He marched me out of Boots to a nice cafe and said enough is enough!

No idea if it is normal for a saturday or not. But I had the same offers as you and I have nearly £60 on my card.

Hi,
I was just wondering: since I have been bootsing (few weeks), every weekend has either been:
- online 10% off OR
- online and instore triple points.

Is this normal? So should we expect triple points next weekend? That would be really great for my Clinique shopping! :rolleyes:

PS: Speaking of clinique, a friend just purchased 2 items with the clinique bonus time and got a voucher for 500 points with a 25£ spend. Is everyone getting those after the clinique purchase or does it depend on the SA?
