    Just got a parcel from Mr Postie.....it's my Easy Living subscription goodies. I've got 3 No7 lipsticks and three bottles of Dove Cream Oil Bodywash.

    Will be bathing in lovely smells with soooopah lippy on. :D

    I received my freebie this morning too! I got exactly the same as you! I'm really pleased with the dove stuff as I don't really like N7 suncreams.

    Hope to find a few bargains in Boots (nothing too big as I am seriously running out of space.......the bottoms falling out of my underbed drawers !)

    Handwash/shampoo glitches would be good!

    Have a look on the tesco threads. With the right combination of tesco toiletry & beauty vouchers you get handwash, shampoo etc for pennies! I have boxes of the stuff under my bed.

    i have been searching for the clearance shelf for days at my locals (we have 3 stores, within walking distance).


    they are all gone...:(:( also.. i have been trying to look for the fcuk pink stuff at the big store, for the last couple of weeks, when they were reduced and BOGOF. even asked the SAs and have been told that they got rid of the old stock. however, i went in today, and discovered a whole shelf dedicated to the pink FCUK stuff. still reduced, but no longer BOGOF. feel like they hid the stuff in the store and waited for the bogof to end. no other reduced stuff in sight. ...i wish the clearance shelf will come back. i miss it already. :(

    It's the same at my local store. A shelf full of rubbish...unless you want a ton of soltan fake tan or pink fcuk. Keep checking though. Something good might appear one of these days...that's what I keep telling myself anyway, LOL

    I don't know about anyone else, but I hate spending cash in boots, unless they are giving away vouchers (pref; N7 and haircare!) I haven't spent anything (apart from points) in boots for about a week...a record for me!

    I wish Boots still had Cookshops like they had years ago,then we could fill our kitchens as well as bathrooms:rotfl:

    Some boots still have cookshops to a certain extent prob only the bigger boots. The huge boots store in Newcastle still sells some cookshop stuff downstairs, hidden away among the baby stuff & the cameras. Last time I was in the metrocentre they had some cookshop stuff too, but that was near christmas - maybe they only do this sort of stuff at certain times of the year now?

    PS: I'm quite new to this bootsing thing, thanks to everyone who posts the glitches. Does anyone else find it a little bit scary when you go to the till and are waiting to see if everything goes through, or am I just being a wuss?:rolleyes:

    Hi all.

    I just wanted to let you all know that boots are well aware of this forum. My order for mouthwashes was cancelled the other day so I rang boots to find out why. They mentioned that that they had picked up about the glitch from the forums. The lady at customer services said that too many glitches had been reported on the forum and they are putting these mistakes right as soon as possible. So it really is now a case of "grab it while u can". Hope this helps.

    Yep thats what I do. And when all the no 7 moisturiser, cleanser,toner 'free' bottles were around, If they ever said to me 'oh those are not for sale' which they did a couple of times, I would plead innocent and say well they were on the shelf - which they were !!!! No sign indicating otherwise - how daft - not for sale!!!
    Yet they still kept them on the shelf! none left now:whistle:
