    they had loads of P&P £20 sets. some at the No.7 display some near the main tills and some near the photo counter. There was at least 6 on each display and they finally seduced me as i have the £5 off voucher now and got a highlight voucher the other day so thought i would try with a few other bits. No go :mad: can't use voucher on gift set can't get GWP as not spent £20 as hightlight free. :D

    Hard luck - but try again elsewhere, some people are being lucky and I think from your previous posts that you haven't had much luck in this store (wherever it is) in the past.Do you mean you tried the P&P giftset, GWP and Illuminator combination? I got the P&P and illuminator (had to put the magic key in as the powder voucher wouldn't work) but I wasn't allowed the GWP if I used £5 off. Other people have had all three though - Good luck!

    I'd also be really interested in answers to this. I know some Bootsers have managed to get make-up brushes, sponges, nailfiles etc for under a fiver but I think the cheapest skincare type thing is the Suncare lipstick thing that is £5:75. I think the cheapest make-up is £6.75. The cheapest stuff may be the new mens range where I think quite a few things are £6. Such a shame there's nothing under a fiver cos it's easy to fall into the trap of buying stuff you don't need just to use the vouchers. They're not nearly as good as the last till split ones where you could get Time Delay stuff FREE!

    It was on 3 for 2 at Christmas so doesn't seem such a good buy now, although I think the face serum is £16.75 and the body serum is £25 so it's cheaper than buying them both separately. HTH:)

    Cup of tea, and back to this thread.....

    Thanks clare :) (Not as good as the £20.00 P&P imo ;))

    For you lovely ladies who do hampers (must get some ideas for myself about
    doing one), I think the box that the P&P set comes in is really nice and
    could maybe be used for a small hamper type thing?If you are careful, you
    can peel all the lables off without damaging the box - the security white
    tag was a bit of a b*gger cos it's stuck on super hard, but if you take it
    slow and steady it's ok What do you experienced Hamper ladies think?

    I'm not quite experienced :D but that'd be lovely! A bit too lovely though for me to be giving my box away lol

    If you go onto www.Boots.com and type No7 into the search box, it will take you to the No7 "shop" and you can run a search by price. Might give you a few ideas. I've stocked up on eye pencils, their basic moisturiser, sun lip thingie, a couple of eyeshadows, a mascara and some nail conditioner.

    Actually, this sounds like rather a lot! I've been doing the shenanigans with the Illum powder vouchers plus pink voucher to get a GWP, but of course then they give you another pink voucher back .....*sigh* I've got two GWP, the full set of Illum powders and a ton of other stuff and I've still got pink vouchers left! My advice to anyone in this sort of promo is not to get too worked up over chasing vouchers, because they're going to end up chasing you. And you'll start spending money just to use the vouchers, which is not what money saving is about, after all, unless you really need or want the item.

    After all, as sure as the sun comes up, there's going to be another promo on No7 somewhere down the line, and more glitches to chase. I have to keep reminding myself that my cupboards are already bulging with enough bargain boots buys to last me most of the year, and it's still only mid-Feburary. I'm even starting to take baths again (I'm a shower sort of gal) just to use up the stash, lol!

  • Delighted I managed to get the p&p, gwp and £5 off.Why did I feel like I was stealing!! dropped the basket at the check out. My 5 year old son was with me he was overjoyed "I just love this shop it has lots of bargains" out of the mouth of babes!!!! He was clutching his own bargain 2 packs of mini :j cream eggs for 75p.I'M sure there will be lots :T of p&p sets soon.The boots near Ikea in leeds had some .
    Thanks again for all the useful updates and chat.
    Happy St Val's Day.
  • Hi there, haven't been on here in ages - looks like loads happening! I haven't had time to look through the thread yet so was hoping someone could help? Can you combine the vitamins 342 with the free eyeQ (£15 vitamin spend) and the 1/2 price health club for boots vitamins. If so at what stage do tills read the £15?

    Hi, posting this again just in case the afternoon shift have any tips about
    this. Would like to get the £5 voucher as well if thats not too much in one go? Thanks
