Have to say I agree, I usually enjoy reading this thread even though its a bit cliquey but I also think its wrong re buying for points and taking back. If people abuse it they will either clamp down on returns or set their systems to remove points automatically without the card.

That happens now with standard points. I took something back a couple of weeks ago - can't remember what it was or why. I was not asked for my advantage card (they don't normally ask where I go). Anyway, I noticed on my receipt that x number of points would be deducted from my card the next time I shopped, and they were.

Is there a list of the cheapest things you can buy using the £5 pink voucher?
I don't have time to look thru' 50+ pages!!! And I can't find it in post 1.
Thanks

But I do agree that some of the more "grey" areas such as this shouldn't be discussed out on a public forum, if only from the point of view that the Boots PR team undoubtably read this forum and will report back to HQ on what's going on. And then Boots will tighten up their returns policy as you say, and that's no good for any of us.

I do agree that you have to be careful as Boots HQ will definitely be monitoring this thread. I'm all for exploiting loopholes but you have to careful not to push it !

Well, they offered you these so I would say that's entirely different, lol!

Go and have a look on www.boots.com and put No7 into the search function to go to the No7 "shop". You can sort this by price, and there's a £5-£7 band. Might give you some ideas.

Hi, am new to this thread but managed to get a illuminator voucher at my local boots last night and i wanted advise on the cheapest thing i can buy to use it?? (sorry i tried looking back on the thread but didnt understand what a gwp was!?!?!?)

also was wondering what shade to get? i have very pale skin and was thinking the pink one might look abit too pink?

No7 GWP -2 (But going for a third one today.)

Highlighters - 3. Full set of all colours...but as I have not one clue as to what to do with them, that's three more than I need!

I know what you mean about the highlighters. I have 6 including a full set of all colours. I am planning to give three as presents but have yet to work out how to use the ones I am keeping :rotfl:

No7 GWP - 3

It seem that the "perky peach" is best with pale skins.

I haven't tried any yet as I am not sure what to do with it

Don't want to end up all shiny and glimmery:o

ohh this thread is so bad for me:D i am determined not to go to Boots before pay day as I have spent a fortune so far (but also saved a fortune and got loads of presents) but reading this is giving me itchy feet and making me think " what can I use my voucher for, when can I get a No7 GWP ...." I love it though:rotfl:

I got advised that colour by a No 7 assistant. I wouldn't worry about looking all shiny and glimmery, I can barely tell any difference. I'm glad I got it free and didn't pay the full price to find that out!
