    got one today, it still go though the till as 0.00, which is free.

    Went to Bristol yesterday and you have to buy some ROC cream costing £27.95 or Stretch mark cream for £14.95 in order to get the free item. I tried last week and couldnt get one and this week the miserable ROC representative had put up a sign saying you had to buy these items only to get the free gift. From what she said she herself had decided what items it could be given away with Grrr!!!. However I got 4 FCUK mini gift sets for £2.50 on BOGOF and a P & P with my points which I sold this morning for £23.01. I wonder if there is a way to ask ROC themselves what the offer was meant to be?

    Did a couple more RoC runs this morning, but TBH getting a bit cheesed off with the GWP, there's only so many headbands and mirrors a girl needs, and didn't have the energy to go back in and get a 3rd pack of wipes to use up the voucher :o

    I was also slightly amazed to see that Boots have decided I am over 60 (after all the P&P I'm slapping on, was hoping my 32 year old face would pass for 21 ;) ) and have started giving me pensioners discount 10% off the Expert range...and are also sending me Preg vouchers!! Could I be a modern medical miracle? :D

    Anyway, onto my main point, which was, I was chatting up a lady stocking the shelves as I had hoped they had a 'reduced' section, in which I could find some reduced stuff which would come up 342 on skincare to accompany my 99p RoC wipes :D There wasn't, but....

    she said to check back again at the end of June/ beginning of July, as there were going to be loads of lines which were no longer on their floor plan (she was waving in the general direction of some Pantene at the time) so they were going to be reducing them! :j :j Keep a close eye on your local store Bootsers, could be some good bargains on the way! :beer: :money:
    :love: I :heart2: Boots :love:

    Oh, also had a mini heart attack when I realised I'd left my Adv Card in the machine (there were NO offers on there so they must be changing them over??) with £140 quids worth of points on there!! :o Luckily managed to retrieve it in time :beer:

    Any chance anybody would send me one for the price of postage and packing. How sad am I that I feel left out because I havent managed to get one. PM anybody who can.

    It's on a £10 Roc spend in Darlington - go in and say your sister lives in Darlington and she only had to spend £10 on any Roc products to get the gift and that you think she is being unreasonable - and could you have her details and the contact details of her manager and Roc head office as you wish to complain and see what that does!:o
