GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR The lancome (and others) bit of .com is RUBBISH! Or is it just me .... can't see any prices, can't search for anything

Edit: And the Lancome lady in my Local said it was any two products - no mention of £25.....! Another example of different things in different stores

It is rubbish on .com. think about the cheapest thing is the shampoo at £10.50.

Received .com order this morning and part of that was no7 GWP when i opened it the hand cream had leaked over everything so called CC and explained lovely man i spoke to said they couldnt really send out another one as it was free gift but would credit my account with 1500 points :j Now just need to think what to spend them on.

Also what are the best things to buy in time delay range with my vouchers i have 5 (will be mums xmas present sorted)

Tried a little Boots near my Mum today - chock full of clearance bargains!!! Got lots of little things for 20p/50p.......but she wouldn't let me have the No7 GWP with P&P & a £1.95 clearance item. Oh well.

Exactly the same thing happened to a customer ahead of me - and she argued that none of the posters in-store or notices on the shelves mention that that you can't make up the £18 spend with reduced No7 products. They only say that the goods must be full-size. The supervisor was called and the gift was put through "just this once"!!

Radiance balm? Has anyone tried it? I got one for me and my mother (for .50 who can blame me?) and since I still have one stop smoking voucher (still some left in queensway london) , I was wondering if I should treat myself to another moisturiser for £1 (I have 2 stored already) or a radiance balm... Is the balm worth it??

Thanks.

Yes, I'd second the praise other people have given this. It really does make a difference when I use it for a sort of no-foundation-but-not-too-knackered-looking base when I go out straight from work. It's very like Clarins Beauty Flash Balm, although obviously significantly cheaper.

I've been really impressed by Time Delay - I use the Rejuvenating Day Moisturiser SPF 15 on a day-to-day basis, and I reckon once I've got the lip plumper and the radiance balm on I only need a bit of mascara and a touch of concealer to take a good few years off me. 30 is coming up very shortly so every little helps...;)

just receieved my .com orders today- 1 while I was in bed around 8ish so the delivery man left it under a plant with a note (it was the no7 lippys) and just rceived the other one containing car seats which came in an enormous box - which my niece has decided will be her house from now on!very impressed as only ordered on wednesday.going instore now so will fill you all in .
love the tulip, daredevil and flame lipsticks by no7.

I was in the Greenock Boots store a few weeks back and the No. 7 lady was falling over herself to help me!! Mind you I had my disabled son in his buggy and she wanted to know what I was doing in Greenock (Scotland) in the first place. I thoroughly enjoyed my tour of Scotland's Boots stores

That's nice to know, there are a couple of No7 ladies but there is just one in particular who i obviously rub up the wrong way, there is an older one with grey hair who is lovely but i think she's only part time i never seem to get her.I hope you enjoyed all your Scottish Bootsing and managed to grab a few bargains along the way.

The Time Delay Hand Cream is £5 and you can exchange the vouchers for this

I'm so upset with Boots at the moment.... saw a Nicky Clarke hairdryer x3 (Clearance) stickered @ £10 and wandered round the store to think about it, got distracted and bought the Miss Sixty perfume set (clearance) stickered @ £12.66 went through the till @ £6.33 :j forgot about the hairdryer. Went back the following morning and hairdryer was gone :mad:

Saw online today the Britax Vigour 4 and the Silver Cross Linear Freeway @ 75% off but both sold out :mad: Missed the Zapp & Buzz last time too - really need a new pushchair too. (If anyone got one they don't need let me know )

Managed to get some Johnsons baby wash and a Tommee Tippee beaker for 80p each yesterday though - reduced to £1 + the 20% off Baby. I'm up to £49.61 in points though

[EMAIL="btc.cshelpdesk_team@boots.co.uk"]btc.cshelpdesk_team@boots.co.uk[/EMAIL] seems to get through. I don't tend to get replies from that but I had a customer care addition of points on the ACM from that :rotfl:
