forgot to mention scouring the shelves I found a Boots eastern Spa gift set with all price tags ripped off it. Went for a price check and till brought it up at £10.00 so i said didn't want it. Thought it must be less as xmas stock. Anyway SA asked the old crow next to him its christmas stock so it should go through at 90% off etc ........ the miserable crow was like oh I don't know and showed no interest. I thought right you want it for yourself and you're not having it you crow!!. Paid for my goods and found a manager who was lovely and he went and checked and said yep it xmas stock its yours for a £1:T :j Going in my box too lol. Might keep the basket for me though to make a basket. Couldn't find any baskets today:rolleyes:

Well done Rubylou your persistence paid off:T

You only get vouchers when you buy in store, on .com there are usually extra points offers that aren't in store.

Decided to feed my withdrawal symptons and go to Boots today.

Darted straight for the clearance sections to see what was on offer: got

3 x Naked handwash reduced to £1.32 but went through the till at 89p each
2 x Badger balms in tangerine @50p each
4 x Nivea face wipes @80p
2 x Boots makeup remover pads @33p each
plus lots of other items for my shoebox:o

Got the No7 gwp with illum powder and mascara for points etc.
Got Sanctuary Gwp with £3 voucher and bought another moisturiser.

Found one 25p No7 tan wipe grabbed another illum powder and ran. Activated my PC upstairs and paid for NO7 went through ok

Dumped bags in boot of car and went back.

Shampoo & conditioner @ 25p each
Boots vitamin E body lotion @25p
No17 GWP
Boots eye cream @35p
and aload more goodies.

Checked receipts and a couple of my clearance items had been missed off:D so free.

Went back to No7 SA and asked where the new box set was she said there were none in the store. I asked none in the warehouse even she said no and would be getting them in for Mothers Day.

Note Passion08 who told you they would be in store tomorrow? Are they right has I will be going in tomorrow if so lol:rotfl:

Hiya rubylou

I was chatting to one of the lovely SA's, and overheard the No7 SA telling a gent that they were expecting a delivery this afternoon and they'd be on display tomorrow. The SA I was chatting to said as far as she knew they were in the storeroom and would be out in the store tomorrow.

I'd have asked the No7 SA myself, but she can be a bit offputting, unless you're spending loads

Btw, your shopping list looks a lot like mine except for the Badger Balm. I did manage to buy a Nivea for Men Moisturiser that was originally £10+, then £6.75, for £2.00

I gave the travel sized Soap and Glory a miss. I checked out the Valentines Display and thought about buying the £15 boxed set (not sure if it had a third off though?) but settled for the Mobile Foam set with the wash bag. I'm not sure if you've seen it, but it's really pretty and the wash bag is bigger than average, so more room for the goodies lol.

Called up CS today because i didn't get 75 ACM points (WYS £10 one). I explained to the lady that I didn't check my receipt till I was on the train.

She goes "this is not the first time this has happened" rather disapprovingly. I said I assumed they had been credited. She then said check your receipt in store next time...the last two times I had to get points added was because my prawn & mayo sandwich was full of prawn shells!! :S and because I was overcharged (at the same store) for some no7 bits.

Is it me or was she a bit rude??

Well done everyone with your bargain hunting today!

I tried the £5 voucher with the 250 points for R&M on the foundation brush and it didn't work! o well!
I then tried to buy the dream lash mascara but there wasn't any black!! I then went to the waterfields store and they didn't have any highlighters!not a very good shop in watford today!lol
