Not very much left in Preston today... Lots of no7 nail polish 50p and shaver foils and the odd bits and bats etc but nothing great. Deepdale wasn't any better with just no7 nail polish and eye shadows. Got 6 of the eyeshadow sets at 49p each on 3 for 2 nice little stocking fillers. Also had a few of the spa soap dishes at 30p.

Very disappointing after all the bargains I got when they did the 90% off after Christmas when I was there as they were stacking the shelves!

I went to the Boots in Preston city centre yesterday evening & got some Kangol shower gel reduced to 75p, Kangol deo spray reduced to 75p, Kangol hair wax reduced to £1.31 & Kangol aftershave reduced to £3.00 It wasn't upstairs with all of the other clearance items it was downstairs in the men's toiletries section.

I found a few bargains in the 90% off sale on thursday. Not a lot left though (I didn't realise they had reduced stuff to 90%) the best stuff must've gone by the time I got down to my local boots. I still came away with 2 bags though:D I bought loads of the spa soaps in a dish @30p, sanctuary self tan body lotion @30p and N7 aftersun @50p and FCUK s/tan kit @30p.

Where can I find the N7 bracelet some peeps have got for pennies? my daughter is after one. Has anyone seen them in any London stores?

None of my local Boots have bracelets :rolleyes:


I don't know for certain but I *think* I have the Boots job.... it's at the Distribution centre rather than stores - no general public Really excited about it.... money will make the world of difference and also the social side of it.... (I suffer with PND so need to stop isolating myself at home)

Congrats shopping_mad. A job at boots is a dream come true:D

Guys - Just to let you know, I know we all like to help people out, but i'm not letting any more bracelets go, quite a few have asked and the only ones i've got left are the charity ones, which are going to charity to make those les fortunate happy.

Was in Chester store yesterday and none of the ACM machines were working. Is this nationwide or just Chester? Birkenhead ones weren't working on Thursday either. Needed to buy some stuff but didn't bother as I couldn't have extra points but will try a different store today if it is not nationwide.

Chester Acms were working later in that they told you what your points were but said the offers weren't available. Broughton park were the same . Hope this doesn't last long. Wished I'd printed out all the vouchers Thursday now before they took the old Acms away.

Just got the best bargain in the sale today - a No7 gift with purchase box (including all the usual sample sizes) for 50p and then when I got to the till it was 10p!! Shame they only had one!

This was in Hammersmith - all of the rest was fairly bad though..

Yes ,same here ,new ACMs but they don't let you get any further than check your points balance:mad:

Clearing out my coupon box (tescos and boots!) I have 6 £2 photo vouchers I won't use so I can give 3 each to the first 2 MSErs to PM me.

In queensway I spotted a sign in the camera section saying ' 250 extra points on memory cards' plus, if you use the 500 points AC coupon that's a mega 750 points:D

I collected more digi photos today. Cost £2.20 - 2.00 voucher + 100 points with AC voucher:j

Also bought 3 more N7 eye shadows @ 50p + 3 4 2, so paid £1.00 for 3:D

Botanics shave gel @3.00 - 2.00 men's skincare voucher (from sandwich) = £1 + FREE wipes:j couldn't find the new mag, so missed out on 100 points, but £1 for both items is still a bargain:D

funkyfarm girl, I hope you didn't think I was asking you for a bracelet when I posted a message here asking what stores have them in stock. I know you bought them for a charity (as I read your previous post) so I'd never do that.

In queensway the N7 lady suggested I ring CS and ask them if they are available in any London stores. I will let you all know when I've called them if any are available.

Hi
I know this is not the best place to ask this but would anybody here have some spare Tesco Health & Beauty vouchers? I have loads of the Quit Smoking ones (Health & Beauty ones are never available in Northern Ireland). I have other vouchers \ Coupons to swap and will pay postage etc. I have tried to buy some on ebay but they are shockingly dear. I know there is a site for voucher swapping but I have yet to find it (I google searched but with no success).

Back to Boots:

Boots Ballymena:
- Tower Centre: quite a few things left. 2 yoga starter kits. All the red stickers have been covered up with white stickers (to keep prices up I think). Some of the skincare stuff is reduced further than what is marked. If you go to the tills near the exit, the girls there are happy to scan to tell you if they are cheaper.
- Fairhill: Nothing at all except tissues and batteries.

Abbey Centre:
- Loads of hair dyes reduced to 1 & 2 pounds. Noddy wash gloves .50p Loads of purfums that I had seen with red stickers on them but are now changed to white stickers prices range from £30 to £5 (for a the small red diesel perfume.

PS there were loads and loads of the EyeQ freebie bags at the abbey Centre boots. Up next to the pharmacy counter.

Hope thats of some help to someone.
