    I dont always send recorded but i do ALWAYS get a proof of posting certificate this covers items up to about 27.00 I think, if the item goes missing then the buyer is entitled to a refund from royal mail. I will not reimburse for an item that has gone missing if I have a proof of postage.

    The Certificate of posting covers you up to £32.But it is up to the seller to claim from Royal Mail for missing items not the buyer.
    I am sending P+P serums by recorded for my own peace of mind.I can tell it ha arrived safely.

    I am off to do a Carboot tomorrow with all my Boots stuff, I have no choice according to hubby as we are finding it difficult moving around the house due to having too much Booits stuff :rotfl:

    Just wanted to ask, I remember someone doing a Carboot a few pages back and selling quite a bit of the suncare, can anyone remember what they asked for it as I haven't a clue what to sell it at?

    The sets that were £12 or something I was thinking £3?
    does that sound too expensive?

    It was me ;) I got £350 but you need plenty of help I couldnt of done it without my little helpers. I would put the sets on for £5 ish you can always reduce them.

    I am hoping to make about £150 or I was before I realised just how much Boots stuff I had!

    Just checked and I have 5 of the large Boots bags they put the mirrors in, filled to the top!

    Thanks for letting me know what prices you asked for, I will keep them in mind and see how the land lies :)

    Mine from yesterday morning says the same? Hopefully they might be dispatched soon?

    I wonder if they are holding back on people that have ordered Protect & Perfect before online?

    Seems a possibility as some people have not had any yet.

    I used a couple of the 200p coupons from AC machine today on Soltan. I bought starter tanning kit @ 2.49 and pre-tan exfoliator @ 1.74
    both items were 1/2 price but not BOGOF. I'm sure someone on here said they had got the pre-tan stuff on BOGOF and 1/2 price? SA tried but it wouldn't work.

    I also got the med hand cream free with 2.00 bathing voucher and a lovely necklace reduced to 1.89.

    I have a few fragrance vouchers to use up. Has anyone tried redeeming these against body sprays/deodrant?
