    Is the Sanctuary/soap and glory "buy 3 minis" GWP just the bag or do you get the bottles in the pic on .com.......................probably just the bag?

    I think it would have to say if the bottles weren't included :)

    I think the trouble is they know me now and just say no. the sa even says back again? I did a few of the 6 for 1 of the No7 suncare items last summer then paid using £5 voucher so got 6 items for 50p (the good old days when they didn't bat an eyelid) so they remember me from that i think. When i looked back i saw the no7 Sa going over to the till i had gone to bet she was asking what i bought and what vouchers i used. So now i have 3 No7 vouchers to use and don't know what to spend them on as i don't get to go to a bigger store derby/notts as son goes to pre-school and couldn't risk not getting back in time. think i will have to treat My dh with the mens range.

    Do you want me to get you one (or more), will be coming your way again, a couple of times?

    I thought the Sanctuary minis came with it but now you mention it it does look like just the bag - hadnt checked out yet so might take them out of my basket.

    Thanks dotchas :D

    When I see these lists and things, I imagine I'm in Boots and wondering what I can spend to take it up to £10 or £20 lol for the offer or £5 off voucher ;)

    I try and sort it all in my head before I go to the store so I don't miss anything..............but I still miss out sometimes ,doing a £9.65 shop:mad:


    My brain goes to mush when I enter Boots and I wander around looking extremely suspicious:o Trying to do sums in my head and search my bag for coupons:o

    I am still being a coward after the refusal I had the other day with a N07/GWP/Illum combo.

    Must try again!
    :j I love bargains:j

    LOL. I'm the same ;) I wander around wondering how I can make a shop up to £16 in one case (can't remember which one now - I need to be in the shop to know why lol. And similar when trying to not miss out on the £5 off voucher. Luckily I had some gum in front of me, as a S&G travel bag (£15) took a 1/3 off and the till showed £9.99! :rotfl:

    I also find it annoying when going into store to use my £5 vouchers as the prices instore are like £1 - £1.50 more than the .com prices. Shocking!!! lol

    It's a bit like showing an Accessorize hatbox set without the hatbox lol (or contents)
