Hiya

Just about to go up town to boots :rolleyes: Can someone please just confirm that, the majority of no7 suncare is now reduced to £6 and still BOGOF? Lipstick bags are currently scanning as free? no17 make up brushes are priced @ £4.99 but scanning at 50p?

anything else that could be helpful as I have a no7 £5.00 voucher which I plan to get suncare with, I also have a £5.00 parenting voucher too. Any other bargains which might tempt me :rotfl:

TIA

Going on holiday tomorrow, :j so have the following vouchers to give away to anyone that would like to pm me their address.

£5 No7/Ruby&Millie X2
£2 off £10 spend for Luxury Bathing range X3
250 points Hydra Quench Skincare X4

I won't be using them, so will post them free to those who want them, as a small thank you for all the helpful info I have gained from this thread.

I will send one to the first 9 people to pm me, starting with the £5 vouchers, working down the list. ie if you are the 4th pm you will get a £2 off £10. Thought that is the fairest/easiest way to do it.

Will post on here when they are gone
Shoki

have a great holiday!!!

hi guys!

just a random question...what with all this bootsing i have done recently..

do u know if cleansers/toners have an expiry date or anything similar?!

There is usually a little open pot symbol with a number and months on the back of items. eg 6,12,18,24.This means to use it within this perid after opening it.So if it had 12months on, you could keep it unopened for 12months,then use it within another 12 months of opening.

brushes today,they are on the Boots 17
stand as £4.99.
But when they go through the

Got two as these will make nice stocking
fillers at Christmas or to add to presents.

had a good look at these and they seem nice quality
there is inside the packet a

Blusher brush
2 eye shadow brushes
lip liner & lip colour brush
eye shadow brush and sponge




handy if your trying to round up to a £5
sale to get another voucher

Picked these up today in my Boots and they are still scanning at £4.99!!

just noticed your post I know I
have paid 50p in the Speke
retail park branch,its quite a
large store and not known for
making reductions if they can
avoid it.It would be interesting
to see if this goes though at this price
in other branches.I got mine off the regular
17 display,they had no reduction in
price advertised.It might be worth
getting this scanned at one of
the tills first for a price check.

i got lots of goodies but had a bit of a nightmare really.

first off i decided to buy the scrunchies i went in for. got a pk of them , 2 bottles of ribena and a ham roll (for after the shopping lol).

this came to £7.75 so i got my no 7 voucher

next i grabbed a benefit bag (as the lady was missing lol). got two sharpeners and also brought the bofof cucumber wipes. i picked up the botonics foot and leg spray aswell.(got a £1 off voucher for that)

this came to £13.28 and forgot to use the botonics voucher duhhhh !! :eek:

got another no 7 voucher tho

next buy was sanc coll mask , sanct cleansing wipes lus pamper bag.
the times voucher went thru ok but the £3 from mag wouldnt (as ive seen on here before. i said i didnt say on the voucher i cant use it. but they said no you cant use it , you need to get something else or we will have to take the bag back. so i said ok ,i'll pay for it. that came to just under £5.00 so added a choc bar to get another no 7 voucher.


now i had 4 no 7 vouchers and i got 2 trimmers and 2 bags from a reduced stand . these are little handled bags with lipsticks all on them but thought they looked good as lots of goodies inside , so got two of them.

on the bus home i sat thinkin.... what if i got into my local small boots and ask to swap the wipes for a face wash , then i could use the voucher. i told them i went to oxford got the two products but the voucher didnt work so could i swap. they said yes. the woman serving me refunded my money for the wipes and the leg cooler botonics thingy (as i didnt use the voucher there did i ). i said i would go get the wash and use the voucher. when i came back , the superviser asked to see my recipts !!!. she saw the times voucher had been used and asked for the free bag back ! i said no.

she said that i shouldnt have had the bag as i used a voucher and now only brought one sanc product. i said well take my money for this wash and ive brought two... she said no , coz you got the £13.00 product free.

i said the two sanc products went thru the till , the free bag when thru the till. i payed for the £13.00 product with a voucher and the till excepted it. i payed cash for the wipes.

another lady came over. and the superviser said. that means SHE gets all that for £2.95 and it dont seem right. i lost the lot then. i said very loud "THE LADY GETS IT ALL FOR £2.95, NOT SHE. IM NOT STEALING ANYTHING , JUST USING VOUCHERS AS PAYMENT AND IF THE TILL HAS DONE THE TRANSACTION IM NOT BREAKING RULES. IT WAS YOU WHO REFUNDED ME FOR THE WIPES AND NOT EXCHANGED ,THEN TOOK VOUCHER."
i was so hot and angry. she handed the voucher to a sas and said take th ladys money , then walked away.

sour grapes she never got a times voucher i think.

what a day !!!!:o

After yesterdays fiasco with the No7 mirror, I decided to be brave and try again today as I had a sneaking suspicion that the electricals go back up in price very soon.

Put quite a few items in my basket to once again try and disguise the huge saving on the mirror and found a sweet little old lady to serve me.

She was so nice and didn't have a clue that the mirror had gone through for 0.00! :T

I ended up with Johnsons shower gel x 2 bogof £1.79

Naked sugar maple face mask bogof x2 £1.29

No7 mirror 0.00 parent voucher
Free wrap

Sanctuary Spa hydrating toner £5.95 but free with 2 x mag and bag vouchers.

Total cost £3.03 with 262 points!!!!

I could get used to this Boots lark

Just been to Boots, picked up a set of no17 brushes, but they werent the same packaging - wonder whether the 50p ones are older packaging, hence the price. Lady in front of me at the tills bought some and came up as £4.99. So I took mine back :rolleyes: I ended up just getting 2x £6.00 suncare - paying £1.00 ad handed over my no7 voucher. I also paid at the no7 counter where there were loads of pink toner bottles. I asked the lady how much they were and she said "Oh, I will pop you one in your bag, Theyre free with any No7 purchase" :beer:

Iv got more no7 vouchers coming in the next couple of days, so will be back
:rotfl:
