Just been to Boots in the Victoria Centre, Nottingham. There were no highlighting powders on the shelf so I thought I'd blown it, but asked anyway and the SA found me some to choose from. She then told me to go and buy the 50p tan wipes and I'd get this free.
Actually paid on the Dior counter, and she said it's 3 for 2 on No 7 so get yourself something else. So I ended up with a mascara as well. Also got 4 lots of the Olay Regenerist Daily Thermal Skin Polisher with my vouchers plus the 300 points vouchers. At £7.50 each, they made me a profit of 50 pence each!

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.

The same happened to me........it's because botanics has an offer on, if you buy 2 things you get the cheapest at half price.
shovergel=£3+
miniature £2
offer -£1
coupon -£2
=2 :T

I went to Deepdale today and didn't do a throrough check of the store (had my two "helpers" in tow) but didn't see any Xmas sale stock (if there was any it was hidden away and not much of it) and couldn't see any tan wipes on the No7 stand. They had the highlighter powders though so I got two other make-up items and they went through at 3 for 2 then cost of highlighter off as well so 3 items for £9.50, plus I used a 200 points coupon from a No7 sale gift.

Again, only a hurried check but couldn't find ANY £5 items to use skincare vouchers on.

Is it worth me trying Fishergate or Blackpool anyone?! (for tan wipes and for £5 items for skincare vouchers)

My little lad (7) made my day by insisting on buying me a little heart-shaped charity pin for a £1 that they had next to the till !!

I was in Fishergate and they have lot of 50p tan wipes. I tried them with 250 point voucher from last GWP and it didnt work, so dont know if it will work with highlighter... didnt try...

re £5 you can get some sanctuary mask sachet they are for 2.50 or 1.79... i have also tried miniature but only one item per voucher can go through even they are 2.50 ... you can get them where all minis are at the back on ground floor or at the first floor...

just to add to the list on first pageone more kind of sanctuary mask sachet
sanctuary moisture boosting mask 1.79 so 2 for free or 3 and you need to pay 40p

i also bought 1* 750ml water and grab the booklet from stand next the till - this pink one healthier-looking skin - and it didnt scan with the water! SA was reading the voucher and the bottle and couldn't understand why it didnt work but she put /override it as 35p... so i guess this might be this voucher that someone one got 1l bottle free (after health club discount) IYKWIM;)

Is there an offer on Sanctuary please?

Not sure if anyone has answered this yet as I'm still catching up.

There is a Sanctuary GWP coming out next week if you are looking to buy anything you could wait until then or there is an offer of 500pts on line wyb 2 skincare products on .com that includes some Sanctuary stuff.

Yes, it would be better to use the £10 off code wys £50 instead of the one I was given.

I'm just about to pay for an order which has 2 x £10 healthcare, £10 toiletry essentials + other stuff to make £50. With the £10 off code thats £40 and about 1200 points.

Didn't work for me today. Tried to buy a No 7 skin treats set that was reduced from £15 to £3.75 but the till bleeped and the SA couldn't overide it. She did advice me to run to the No 7 counter and grab some tanning wipes as loads of customers had done that but there were none left! Bought the skin treats anyway.
