Fab, thanks for that foxy-lady! Even if I don't get any points vouchers, I may go tomorrow and see if they go through BOGOF. Or maybe I'll wait until they start handing out new vouchers (take it nobody's heard anything about what these might be yet?)

Think Meadowhall had some last week, probably gone now though!

I may have missed them, then cos I didn't realise how big the boxes were until I got the facial one today. I will go have another look around.

The boxes for these are small in comparison to the other electrical items in the range. easily missed if you don't know what you're looking for. They are iridescent lilac/white boxes - same as the other electrical range packaging. Both the eyelash curler and the trimmer are in the same sized box.

Damn those helpfuls SA's..... I was trying to get the 6 4 1 suncreams today, disguised with a bunch of other stuff that I really didn't need! I had 3 of the small facial suncreams and 3 of the larger ones. I had gone to the phamacy counter thinking that would be the best way. The SA was ummming and ahhing over my basket as to which the best way to put it through when along came another SA and they decided to split the transaction... I quickly said, 'oh it's ok just put them through all together they are on 3 for 2'. They said that they were on bogof and that the 3 for 2 was cosmetics only. One SA said 'well if I put these 2 through first you'll have spent £5 and can get another voucher for the rest'. I was starting to go very red at this point trying to think of a way out of it when I realised that I hadn't got a wrap. So I said that I had forgot to get the wrap, so just void the transaction and I'll go grab one. They then said that the wrap is no longer on offer 'cos of the 3 for 2!!!! arrghhhhh. I was so red at this point and felt like I had 'SHOPLIFTER' tattooed on my head so i just gave in and got 2 suncreams with the voucher and left the rest.

I then went over to the No7 counter and there were no wraps to be seen I asked the No7 lady and she said that the wraps had indeed finished due to the 3 4 2 offer. Is this the case everywhere?

I noticed that she had one of the lipstick bags in her hand and asked her if they were back on sale and she said they had just received a load of them and she was just checking the price. They scanned through as £6.50 and she said they would put them on the shelves asap. She kindly let me have the one in her hand though.

Did the lipstick bag just go through for free?

No the Lipstick bags dont go through free unfortunatly. I tried this at the weekend as they were giving these away instead of the wrap with over £15 no7 purchase. Got charged £6.50 :rolleyes:

in my local boots today (small store no no7 suncreams sold) on the shelf edge on the No7 end little red sticker no7 3 for 2 includes suncreams, cosmetics and face creams.

This sounds very like my experience when the 6 for 1 was on in January. I had to argue with the SA to get her to put them through together as she was being so helpful. I think she thought I was mad!!!! And she looked so amazed when they all went through saving £56!!!!!!!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

My mother wouldnt have a clue :rolleyes:
MIL have had a go a couple of times But its had to explain to her how things work:p

In my case it's the DD's who are clueless! They think I'm mad for chasing the offers but they often come to me when they run out of moisturiser...and they didn't complain when they each got a digital camera paid for with points!

I had great fun in Boots today. i needed some high factor stuff for skiing, so bought the Soltan factor 40 on bogof along with a few other bits and pieces which came to £15.32. I used an 'extra points for over £15' voucher, and a '50 points with the Expert range' voucher, and received a £5 off No7 voucher back. I then bought two £6 No 7 suntan lotions on bogof and a moisturiser, used my £5 off voucher and received the wrap free gift. I got another £5 voucher back which I then used to get another two NO7 sun lotions for a £1. I love a bargain!
