    Thanks, I'm really glad you recommended it and I'm looking forward to using it with my new reduced foundation lol!

    I wish you well with your brush.

    I did something stupid yesterday before this good shop. I nipped to my local small Boots quickly whilst on my way somewhere else and had a quick look for the reduced Nivea Q10. There wasn't any but decided to get the full priced stuff for the points. I paid with points (as it's the first time in ages I've bought something without a voucher) but didn't get the 400 points.

    Now I assumed afterwards this was because I paid with points and then you don't get them, but thinking now after my shop this morning maybe their till wasn't geared up to giving them.

    Can anyone clarify this for me. If you pay with points do you get extra points, or is it only on a cash/card purchase?????

    Hi,

    When you pay by points you don't get any points for your purchase.

    If you'd paid by cash or card then you would have got them.

    HTH ;)

    I have checked the ACM a number of times this week and am really annoyed that no extra points coupon for P&P comes up. I don't suppose anybody on here has one that they would send to me for the price of the postage?

    Also, I asked about the new P&P £20 gift set in the Basingstoke branch and the No7 woman hadn't heard of it. I was wondering if anybody has managed to get hold of one if there are any vouchers in it?

    Thanks!
    Hi

    There are no vouchers in them. I've bought 3 so far and just opened the box to look inside for you.

    If you read my earlier post today you will see that Chester No7 SA's hadn't heard of it either, but they had 40 in their stockroom when they checked the computer. I think it is very new and not really being promoted at the moment. You could always ask them to check their computer. HTH

    Just got back from Boots after 'treating' myself to the Sanctuary GWP. I bought the cream body scrub and bath relaxer. I've taken out the £3 voucher.

    Probably a stupid question but I've got a little confused as to what I can use this against. Someone on here said that it could only be used against the white sanctuary products but it doesn't say this on the voucher. Can I use the voucher against any sanctuary product?

    Thanks in advance.

    Anyone? Maybe it's cause I didn't write in black.

    I used mine against Foot Souffle - the voucher itself shows all the ranges including Mum-to-be, there's nothing to suggest that it can only be used against the facial Sanctuary skincare range as I recall.

    Thanks. That's good to know. I want to get two of the lovely GWP as in effect it will be BOGOF. If I use the £3 voucher that means I would pay £7 for both. Making each set £3.50. A real bargain and excellent for prezzies. :T

    I tried to get 2 together so it would be BOGOF but the till and the supervisor said NO!:mad:
    You might get lucky if your SA is nice and has an overide key.

    I bought foaming scrub and foaming shower gel instead
