Hi

Yes its this weekend

the more i try to stay away from boots :eek:

the more they invite me :rotfl:

Has anyone seen the new NO.7 GWP??? What are they like or what will they be like

thanks in advance :T

I've seen the new one and I don't think it's anything to get excited about unfortunately. No nice bag, it's all just in a little cardboard box with a metal handle. It's meant to be samples of stuff that has won beauty awards, including (off the top of my head): Protect & Perfect, Amazing Eyes Pencil in Brown, Eyeshadow in Wheatsheaf, Mascara (can't remember which one), Lipstick, and I think a moisturiser.

Does anyone know if the London Oxford street store has an Origins counter as I'm after some gumballs.

Thank you

Yesterday I placed an order .com without any extra point for 3 P+P plus others to make it upto £40. I didn't know that I can't use the same code for the second time. So paying £41.79 with some 166 points back.

After reading the above link, just quickly placed an order again for 3 p+p. Now I used other code and get extra points, including 500 points from Benefit big sharpener. Decided to pay extra £4.50 for delivery to get all quick. Hope I made the right decision to invest my money and going to make some profit from ebay soon.

Last weekends, I sold 3 p+p for £20.50, £ 22.70, and £23.00 (including postage). So I earned £66.20. But my profit is only £21.70 (p+p 33.5, delivery 4.5, ebay fee 3.5, paypal fee 3).

Happy for myself as this is my hobby. Telling my friend about this, she told me I can work overtime and earn double of that amount within a night if I accept to do more projects. She is my closest friend and co-worker. When I first discovered all boots bargains, I shared the information to her. But she didn't interest. She told me when she needs she buys. No bargain hunting, no ebaying. I felt sorry for her life. Miss some chances of excited feelings to hunt the bargains, enjoyed looking all stuff (even not need to use) getting within the fraction price, etc.. She might feel sorry for me too as she saw me hiding my shopping in my space in the office (because my OH has the same character like her). So better not to let him know my favourite hobby.

I addict to Boots bargains. It has helped me to go through all stress of my full-time work. Thanks for everyone in this thread. You made me not feeling lonely and guilty of addicting shopping. :T :T

All in all a good day. Couldnt get any offers on ac machine for DS & OH card though

In Staines, there was a sign up saying that you now get 4 points per whole £ spent, rather than for 1 point per 25p. I know some shops were trying this out, but is this now nationwide?

Just used up the last of my skincare vouchers. No Sanctuary wipes left in Staines, so bought the Roc ones instead for 99p each - still a bargain! No Roc GWP to be had though.

Also got 4 Trevor Sorbie for men lip balms for £1.80. They were reduced to 60p each, but there's a voucher in ACM for Buy One Get One Half Price.

Heard the No7 SA telling a customer that they have had P&P in stock since last Thurday, but you have to ask for it at the counter, it's not on the shelves.

the stores down here in sunny cornwall have now brought this in, but ac is still the best loyalty card for collecting points, in my humble opinion!

I was there this morning too! I wonder if we bumped into each other - I would've given you some vouchers if I'd known!!

As for the mags - I haven't ever seen them in there! I'm going to Cowley Rd tonight so I'll see if they have any in that branch.

There was a mention of P&P on the front page of the Metro (free paper on public transport in leeds) today. Just thought any ebayers might like to know!
