So if I change my due date do you think I will get another parenting voucher??
Also I keep seeing people say they are getting med range hand cream with the voucher - where in store can I find these as have looked but can't seem to find them anywhere!

i should think so and the hand cream was with the bathing mediteranian products in my store

At what point did you change the date? i.e. right after you received your vouchers? And how different was that date from your original one? (one month further away or something?)

Re: mediterranean creams, I can't find them either! I looked in both Boots in Leicester city centre, but nothing

cant remember the exact date but i remember doing the date at 1st to nearly due thats why i got the new mum vouchers then i changed it to end of october so id say 7 month difference

I cant seem to find Simple Baby Wipes in Boots anywhere!!! they sent me £1 off coupons for them but cant use them yet as am yet to find a store that sales them!

Has anyone actually seen the Simple Baby Wipes in a store

many thanks x

have seen them in the york store, was going to get them as i have loads of vouchers, but then i noticed they were £2.99 each and boots own were £1.99 BOGOF so the vouchers are not really worth anything! and i get double points on baby items.:rolleyes:

Ooh I just did a nice little shop:
(rrp prices)
Boots permanent Straightening kit: 9.99
Borjois nail varnish: 4.95
Boots Razors 33p
Trojan her pleaser Condoms -9.89
Trojan ultra pleasure Condoms - 8.99
Boots Heartburn relief - £2.49
Gillet Shaving Foam - £2.99
T&G Straightening Glaze -£5.99
T&G £4.99
Soltan Mitt £3.49

Total RRP £86.67

*now for the fun part*

The soltan Tan applicator Mitt gave a saving and went through for £1.74
Tony and Guy items were on clearance end for £1.99 and £2.99
Trojan Condoms were also on clearance end for £1.49 and £1.35
Straightening Kit wouldnt accept the voucher, so SA took the kit off and tried to put it through manually (it took off 14.99 rather than 9.99, she then put it in as 4.99 and it then took off an additional £1.67 making it £3.32)

I have no idea what the 1.67 was though :S

My total spend was £24.72 but one of the tony and guy items has gone through Full Price, so once ive been back to sort that out total will be £21.72


Saving - £64.95 ooooh that feels good

They are much kinder to skin though - my LO gets a rash on his face even with the boots sensitive ones - I use the BGOF ones for nappy change and the Simple (with a £1 off!) for mealtimes.

I had just the opposite - serum went all "bitty" and I had to wipe it off and start again without it
Will try it again but I wasn't that impressed.
