As the highlighter voucher doesn't run out until 26/02/08 and the new No7 voucher comes out on 29/01/08, and its been found to work on 342 giving not only the highlighter free but also the next cheapest item free too, wouldn't it be a good idea to perhaps save a voucher or two. Those no7 lovers would then be able to buy one product with £5 off and get the other two free. I wonder if the till would total the items up before the vouchers, get the total to over £20 (afterall, the highlighter is £10.25 before the voucher is taken off) and give a GWP too?
Sounds good to me.:T

Usually the 3 for 2 offer on no 7 stops when the new GWP starts.
Sometimes if gifts run out before the closing date of offer then those stores often put 3 4 2 back on.

Hi Moneysavingmumofone and Mumzy

I also paid £9 for one earlier in the month. This was in Felixstowe, Suffolk. Last two on the shelf, not far from the perfume section with no other sale items, they were somewhere else. Hope someone manages to get some.

Back from Boots in Dundee and all items stickered with a "clearance" label were reduced down to just 50p. :j As you can imagine things were flying off the shelf! Managed to pick up a few bits. Also tried to get the free No 7 Highlighting powder when i purchased a No 7 skin treats gift set (down to £3.75) but the till said no. The SA was very helpful and told me to run up to the No 7 counter and ask for the tanning wipes as loads of customers had done this to get the free product. Received a resounding "NO" from the No 7 SA who said they no longer had any! Guess she was fed up with everyone asking for them. So never got my free product but still happy with my purchases.

:jHad a quick look and couldn't see this. Am so chuffed wanted to share.

Scents of Attraction containing:

Ghost 5ml
Hugo Woman 5ml
Ted Baker X20 10ml
Very Irrestible Givench Original 4ml
Amor Amor 5ml

Stickered up at £5, went through at £2.50. So one in the pressie box and a treat for me too :j

I was looking all over for these or the scents of Occassion in the sale, but only saw 1, that had 50% off, bought it, but would have loved to have got a few more as pressies for next year.
Great find at £2.50.

That's a shame then, but at least those that haven't been able to get a highlighter on anything reduced might be able to get one with only a little to pay, ie the sun care lip/eye gloss things at £6ish, then £5 off

Hi guys. First time bootsing - so how did I do……

£30.13 down to £16.89 plus £3.28 worth of points.

Bought my lunch, wrap drink and crisps for 2.99 (saving (£1.02)

Olay cleansing wash. Should have been 5.99 but had till spit voucher so paid .99p

No7 highlighter – got it free when I bought a cute (reduced!!!) highlighter compact for £4.00 (saved £10.25)

Boots 17. Bought a mascara and got a free eye shadow, added a 1.99 lip pencil and used a advantage point coupon to get free cleansing wipes. (saved £2.99) Also because I spent over a fiver I had a magazine coupon for 100 points which I used too.

Bought buy one get one half price on bts coconut shampoo and conditioner (saved 65p) and got triple points.

And then as I spent over £15 I used a kiosk voucher for 100 extra points.

Phew… I’m quite impressed as lunch/shampoo/mascara and face wash were all essentials I needed,

The one I got (Scents of Occassion) had
Amarige
Very Irresistible
Insolence
Ghost Deep Night
Ange Ou Demon.

I loved the Insolence, so when I took a bottle of Chanel back that I had for a Christmas present, I swapped it for an Insolence gift set with perfume and shimmering body lotion and a bottle of Paris, was really pleased to get two bottles of things I loved rather than keep one bottle of something I wouldn't use.

I will never understand how Boots works it out but if it works like that I don't mind: I had a voucher from the machine saying buy a full-sized Botanics Bathing product and get a mini size for free. So I bought a showergel which was advertised as £3, and a mini size which was advertised as £2. I had to pay £2 at the till and when I looked at the receipt it said that the mini size was reduced to £1, but for some reason the till deducted the former price of £2.
