    Hi Funkyfarmgirl,

    i am in agreement with you, as some of the P&P ending now r going for low prices, u'd be heartbroken if u sold 4 that amt & they didn't pay for it.:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Dont think anyone in there right mind would relly pay £70.00 and £123 for a bottle

    now £70 bottle up to £102 think i better get teh boots tomorrow quick
    Inside me lives a skinny woman crying to get out - but I can usually shut her up with cake!

    Don't know if it's any good to anyone but done a search and not seen any mention yet, my boots in Hastings today had the Ketsugo spot treatment gels and sprays on clearance shelf at 50p each. I grabbed 3 just in case and sure enough they were 3 for 2 so 3 for £1. Having just looked around the internet it seems like a good product and normally sells for £10-£11 each! Just searched ebay and found one finishing weds morning already at £3, not as good as your p&p but might be worth a go for anyone interested, I'm keeping mine cos I have spots:rolleyes:

  • Went into Boots with my parenting vouchers (and my sisters ones-as she says she wont use them)

    It was a case of trial and error! In my basket was :
    the roc gwp
    2x disposable cameras @ 8.99 bogof
    No7 glossy locks hair spritz @5.50
    One bday card

    Vouchers:
    1 x £5 off no7 item
    1 x free disposable camera

    Tried at the sandwich till and it all went thro apart from till wouldn't accept the no7 voucher?! SA queried roc gwp going thro free and asked if it was a sample, i agreed, no probs. However she went to find someone to ask why the no7 voucher wasnt working and came bck to say it was because it had to be spent on make up from no7. It didn't say that on the voucher and i knew she was wrong as i had okayed it first at the no7 desk to check.

    I got the impression she couldn't be bothered with it all so sent me to no7 till downstairs, to which the SA noticed the ROC bag going thro free and that i hadn't bought an item so put it back on shelf and rang thro my glossy spritz twice! Even after me pointing it out she tried to tell me that it was £11 per bottle! so i pointed out the shelf label, even tho on the receipt it had £5.50 per bottle, and she took one off. I think she was just bamboozled at the cheapness of my sale.

    I went back ten mins later to another desk with another two disp cameras and my sisters parenting free camera voucher so didn't pay anything, SA was pleased for me :)

    Oh well, no ROC gwp but plenty of cameras now for holidays and my glossy spritz spray(these are half price online), one sleep to go!

    WOnder if I will be dreaming Boots!! How addictive is this!

    x x

    p.s plenty of P+P instore
  • Sorry this is in addition to previous post.....

    All in all i paid the price of my bday card plus 50p (for the glossy hair)

    BARGAIN = :)

    ochayethenoo - if I remember rightly are you in aberdeen? Where did you get the ROC GWP? I have been looking for it in both Garthdee and Bon Accord and have yet to get one!

    I took someone's tip on here and listed my P&P as a pair to worldwide (thanks for that!) and they sold for £44, so after fees, Mr Boots has paid me roughly £3 plus points to have a bottle for free. :j
    My latest P&P delivery has different packaging - rounder glass bottles with no caps!
    Have a few vouchers to play with so will let you know what happens.

    I'm pretty sure that I read someone else did the same but managed to get it sorted - can't quite remember but I spose they must have phoned CS. It was around the time the toy sale started - will have a look back for ya.....

    Hi again - here it is:

    I did exactly the same with my first order using Paypal, I phoned customer care up and quoted the code displayed on the Paypal site.
    I said I had put it in when ordering but it didn't seem to be working properly.
    She looked the code up, saw it was genuine and added 500 points to my account

    Give them a ring once you receive your order and I am sure she will add some points on for you

    Good luck ;)
