ha ha ha ha I got my mum hooked :rotfl:

She tried some of my luxury completely quenched body lotion the other day ant really liked it, so today I asked her if she would take me into town so I could post some ebay items and also go to boots

I told her I would give her one of my parenting vouchers as a thank you. I told her that she could get 3 of the body lotion for £3.75!!, usually £8.75 each.

So we went into boots and I took her to the body lotions and went to get 3 of them, but they only had 2 left, so she said she would have a toner instead.


I told her we should go to separate tills, and she started paniking :rolleyes: saying "what if they charge me more than £3.75?" I told her to stop paniking and get to the till. She did have a bit of a scare though as when the lady scanned her voucher she looked at my mum and said "erm... why has it knocked that amount off??" my mum shouted to me at the next till - "are they bogof?" so I shouted back "No 3for2" and that was fine, she paid £3.75 and was happy.

Outside the store she said to me "How on earth do you do it all the time?? I was sh!tting myslef" :rotfl: :rotfl:

I bought the day and night hydro quench sorbet and the advanced hydration cream and total came to £11.00 I paid with £10.00 pigsback voucher and £1.00 from my purse, so really only cost me £1.00. I also used my 250 points voucher (from wrap) and a double points coupon, so I got £3.38 back in points :T :T

Not bad eh? my receipt states Total Saving Today £32.50 :beer:

How do you do it, I am so jealous of all you boots babes ! How do you buy 3 of the body lotion for £3.75 when they are 8.75 each even at 3 4 2 - it does not work, hope someone can explain. I've got my advantage card with 1000 points on (from buying fridge), £10 boots from pigsback and a bunch of vouchers i printed from the machine ! Now just have to figure out how to best spend !

when the last no7 voucher offer was on (the red one) one seller was selling three vouchers for 99p on a buy it now, 13 lots of them, im sure they must have been pinched from boots as no one could have had 39 vouchers for sale on the first day of the offer, other wise they must have done 39 different transactions in the first half of the day

I agree that I think a lot of sellers of the vouchers are either boots employees or pinched them.I bought loads of the no7 vouchers the last time for £6 and the seller sent them specail delivery.They sold tons of them.Someones even selling the sanctuary voucher you get free in the magazine :rotfl:

Do you use the sanctuary face oil? I really really like it! smells fab and I dont know if its a figment of my imagination but it does make my skin look more radiant!

:rotfl: :rotfl: Thats my other great beauty buy .I love it I mentioned it on here a while back.I think it perks my skin up a lot. I used to use the decleor oils ( and thay are fab ) but I really like the sanctuary oil.I rub a small bit with my moisturiser in the morning to make me glow. If anyone has any sanctuary vouchers left or the £3 off from the magazine I recommended treating yourself to the facial oil.
As for the micro dermiension exfoliater it is DEFINATELY worth every penny. It is similar to the estee lauder idealist micro refinisher but , ( gulp i never thought i would say this as I loved this product ) better .If I was now offered both for free I would take the no7 one .In fact I think i will use it tonight to perk me up. Im starting to find that cheaper products are really improving a lot and im fussy but thankfully its also saving me money.
Thanks to the girls on the board who recomended the NO7 exfoliater :T originally.
I sitll havent tried the no7 peel and they have gone up in price to £ 17.50 now, but im still trying to pluck up the courage to use mine.

The rimmel moouse, funny they've reduced that - superdrug had it on 1 day offer at £1.99 on monday, its lovely as a light base.

just another occassional poster but avid lurker wanting to say thanks for all your info and tips on here! i'm really getting into the swing of things now with boots and tescos.... DH thinks i'm totally addicted - which of course i am!!!

got a nice little freebie today. The boots 5 day detox plan was on the clearance shelf at my local boots, so quick as a flash i looked in my little magic bag of coupons to pull out my 500 points coupon from the magazine.. voila free detox! I've already put it away next to the Biolight 3 day detox i got for £3.50 last month. Am determined to use them one day soon...honest! just a thought though, do you guys really use all of your bargains?? I've only just started to look after my skin thanks to you all and the Botanics glitches... never been so well moisturised!

I love the micro-dermabrasion stuff too, my skin is quite oily and fairly sensitive and it's helped keep it clear.

dare I say it....I don't like the feel of the protect and perfect stuff as it reminds me of the feeling I got when I spilt warm silicon oil on myself in the lab....errghhh...!!! :rotfl: :rotfl:

I've not tried the others, but I did like the hydroquench day sorbet that came in the wrap, it made my skin feel really soft.
