Boots Grabbit Bargains Thread part 8 - post your finds here

I sold 2 P&P samples from the lipstick bag for £8 each. Last week, my 3rd sample sold for £19 (:eek:) and then I realised it was some kid messing around at half term. :mad:

while shopping this morning i saw a group of no7 ladies putting the security tags on the protect and perfect, they were talking and had been told by head office not to phone customers and tell them and that its one per customer when they come in and also to tell customers they will be getting some more on the 5th of may,
then this lady went up to the counter and asked if they had any in stock and they had the cheek to stand there and say no we have never had any come in :eek:

i know they are not aloud to sell them on ebay themselves but do you think some of them sell to their mums etc who then maybe sell them on

I am sure this must be the same boots i was in this morning ! I saw them too, yet the shelves are empty and they are telling all the customers they will not be able to restock until May 5th at the earliest! Another lady asked in front of me at the no7 counter , and I commented that you could get it on ebay if you were willing to pay through the nose , and the no7 SA started to quote prices it goes for on there.....leading me to think she must know someone on ebay
However on the upside they were just putting out racks of reduced suncare products as I was leaving and they still have lots of pink party bags with refine and rewind samples in.

Maybe it was her who had one of my Refine and Rewind listings removed from E-Bay because I mentioned Protect and Perfect in the title. As the Boots website makes the comparison between the two products themselves surely it cant be wrong to do it yourself. I have just re-listed it without any mentions of P&P in the title.

I have been doing the same as you other lovely Bootsers, I have sold roughly 12 p&p and 6 r&r at an average of £30 each, using Paypal to pay with after receiving Paypal from customers, its brilliant!

Whats even better is that it is on 342 at the moment so we are making an even better profit:j

I have also made a new customer from Canada who is paying me a small fortune to buy No7 products for her and send them over :T

I just added up my points total for my recent orders and it comes to a massive £45!

Just have to think what I can buy with it, decisions, decisions :rotfl:

WHICH N0 7 BAG IS BETTER - VALUE FOR MONEY???

Hiya fellow Bootsers, I just saw the 'Lipstick' and 'Burgundy' bags in the clearance section at my boots (£6.50 each)......I know the lipstick one has the 'magic cream' in it BUT which one would you recommend as having better/nicer samples in it??? - which is better with regards for 'value for money' for what you get??

Would be grateful on any comments as I think I might buy one for a friend.

Thanks for any advice!!XX

I thought the lipstick in the burgundy bag was a particularly nice shade - this is a list of its contents:

Moisture Drench Lipstick - Highland Mist 3.5g
Refine & Rewind Intense Perfecting Serum 5ml
Mini Intense Volume Black Mascara 4.5ml
Mini Stay Perfect Nail Colour Rose Truffle 4ml
Mini Liplicious in Candyfloss 5ml
Advanced Hydration Day Cream 15ml
Mini Perfect Lips Pencil Nude

I'm afraid I can't clearly remember or find the lipstick bag.

I've just found the lipstick bag on Ebay:

No 7 Protect and Perfect Beauty Serum.
Total Renewal Micro Dermabrasion-Exfoliator.
GlitterVarnish Milan 70.
Lipstick Sugar Plum 75.
Lift & Curl Mascara.
Amazing Eye Pencil 10 Brown.
Advanced Hydration Day Cream.

Trying to avoid starting Real Work? Me?

Yup, me too!! Bought 3 x P+P (on 342) with Paypal, sold them for about £30 each (all on Buy it Now) and bought another 3 a few days ago, sold 1 to Australia for £35 last night and still have 2 to go. Oh, and sold 2 trial size ones for a tenner. Even with Ebay and Paypal fees I should end up with over £100 clear profit.
