I am not sure if this is relevant but thought i'd mention it.

I found two 50p no7 tan wipes today.

I tried to combine the no7 highlighter, one of the 50p tan wipe and 200 no7 points in one transaction. But the highlighter didn't scan through as free and SA also said 200 pointer hasn't registered, so I asked him to void that transaction.

The 2nd wipe was used in conjunction with another 2 No7 compact (now £4 each), plus highlighter and 200 no7 points voucher. I thought that it might work as 342 and free highlighter (prev it did for me on normal price no7 342 and free illuminator). BUT, the 200 points didnt scan and the wipe and highlighter didnt come up as free. Looking at the receipt, I noticed the wipe is entered as beauty , NOT not No7 wipe (or along those lines).
So, my guess is, it might work if ALL the products were entered as No7 ???

The things is, how do you get the SA to enter item as No7 and not 'beauty'?

Sorry for the long post and hope i make sense

Thats really weird, my daughter bought a Tan
Wipe for 50p tonight and got the highlighter free, voucher scanned no problem!!

Didnt work for me yesterday when I bought the eye palette and tried to get the highlighter free, the voucher wouldnt scan.

Got some good things today from the Stockport store, and as christmas boots sale first timer, I have to say it was quite fun
I got quite a few things... Spa gift set, Umberto gianni curl set, ted baker notebook set, quality streets and a plastic pamper bag with bits and bobs in it (including a milk chocolate body wash!) - lots of things that would have cost near enough £50 for £15...I was in at about 11:30am and noticed that the shelves were quite full, and it wasn't that busy in the store!! There were about 4 other people looking through the sales shelves..I expected it to be much busier!

However, also popped into the cheetham hill (Manchester) store with OH and they only had 50% stickers up...no 75% sale there yet, i think that may be tomorrow? Does anyone know if this is correct? If yes...I may plan a trip down there tomorrow lol!

I just want to also say thanks to everyone who did all the ringing up/asking and found out the date

Hi all

Oh lordy had a really good day. Got to Hull branch just before 8am doors open. legged it straight upstairs for the No17 make up sets. Got everything I wanted and plenty more lol. Went home on the bus with 7 bulging bags and very aching arms.

Got home and decided to go back couldn't believe how the shelves had emptied. Hope they stock up!

Plenty of mags in Prospect Centre branch.

Much as I've enjoyed my shopping expedition today I just want to say that this thread and all on here are great - and so very helpful - thank you. I'm still laughing at (sorry forgot your name) getting chucked out.

That was me - later on I heard a SA tell his colleague in an aghast voice that customers had started coming in before the shop opened - so seems like I wasn't the only one. Well, they would leave the doors open, that's not going to stop us moneysavers!

I was at Speke tonight at 7pm (earliest I could get there :embarasse ) and the 75% had started this morning

To be honest there was not much choice at all, loads of empty shelves, some Ted Baker ladies and mens sets left that had been £15 but not alot else. I was really disappointed, hopefully some of you got there earlier and got some goodies

There were bits and bobs like kids bubble bath, small purses with a lip gloss in, a few pen sets

Hopefully they will restock before tomorrow

we were told theirs was not starting until tomorrow
that is so disapointing to hear.

Items are only group coded as "Beauty" when there isn't a code to enter into the till for it so it shouldn't appear as "beauty" on your receipt.........

I managed to get to hanley at about half 10 today -managed to get a few bits but missed out on the toys I wanted-got lots of ted baker for men and women sets, badgerbalm sets, a cricket lovers gift pack for my cricket mad brother,and a few other things.I ignored the no7 pallettes as I still have last years and I didn't bother with the spa sets as again I still have last years.Didn't see any sanctuary or soap &glory which was a shame but loved the clearance section as it had reduced trevor sorbie shampoo at £1.12 which I stocked up on in 4 seperate transactions to get 250 points on and cheap energiser batterries.I think last years sale had a better selection-there was the botanics glitch going on then and I remember buying a couple of botanics gifts and getting a free moisturiser aswell.Also I did not see any bourjois or eastern spa items which they had lots of last year.Glad I did most of my shopping on the 50% event as me favourite things were all available then.I managed to find a couple of good toys and games later in the debenhams clearance so that made up for the lack of toys in boots.
Did anyone go to festivel park or newcastle and are they worth visiting?
I tried to use a 100 points on boot socks voucher today with one of my shampoo transactions and the sa said it wouldn't go through as clearance items are now excluded but the trevor sorbie shampoo points went on fine?

Hi

Does anyone know what is in the Accessorize gift boxes? I saw a few today but didn't have chance to see what was inside.

Thanks
