    The big Boots in Chester didnt seem to have very much on what seemed to be its clearance shelf but there were various skin care sample sachets which I collected as I went around. Didnt find any memory cards, reduced albums or photo frames and I didnt see any of the new bags as reported.

    I found yet another of the £2 vouchers lying around, gawd knows how many I have to use up now. I had another lookat the boutjois stand, very similar to a sweet shop in design. I used one of my vouchers for a nail varnish called "very vernis" which looks very pink and sparkly in the bottle but very subdued on, best I think as a top coat over your normal varnish or you dont get to see the sparkly bits!

    Also got the Botanics pulse points using the 1/3 voucher in the machine and the voucher from the Stop smoking leaflet for 79p. These would be a nice addition if you were making up a pamper basket for someone eg birthday, just become a mum etc.

    As for out of date vouchers I hang onto mine for several weeks after they expire. I did have a 75 extra points coupon for a £10 spend voucher accepted in a little Boots the day after it should have been used. It was part of a pile of other coupons so possibly this was why

    I came out of Boots empty handed today, I must have looked like a lost soul wandering round with my empty basket :rolleyes:

    SA on No 7 was guarding the P+P with her life and there were none out elsewhere in the store so I gave up on that. No reduced memory cards still. Only one nail file left. No clearance section. No good vouchers left for me in the ACM's. I felt quite sorry for myself :p So I went to Primark and bought a new purse so I can fit my vouchers in it :rotfl:
