Worth every penny IMHO - only need a little and it works wonders!

Online there is an offer on the new John Frieda Overnight serum (Normalprice £14.99 for 50 ml) - free gift with purchase (limit to first 500). http://www.boots.com/brandtreatment/...pe=C03S6R03B01 also on 342. BUT YOU GET 3 SETS OF FREE GIFT!!!!!

Well I did this last week (the 342) and was delighted to receive my 3 serums, plus 3 JF straight shampoos, and 3 JF straight conditioners! All nine for £29.98 :T

Just had a quick look and its still working now so not sure if the first 500 is applying?( seems to be 216 sets of free gift left) Worth a look if you like JF

(P.S. tried the serum last night, you only need a little and its lovely! Hair all soft and glossy this morning!)


HTHS;)

Does anyone know if this is instore aswell or just online?

First time I've been to Boots in ages as I usually shop online rather than go into town,

Had 4 x £3 sanctuary vouchers from the hat boxes in the sale - did 4 transactions and got some lovely goodies - also managed to use one to get the GWP.

Had 2 till vouchers for the No 7 so used them towards new toner and cleanser and also got one of the illuminating powders. Had 3 vouchers as last internet order there was a mag in every box - only liked one of the shades though so have two spare if anybody hasnt managed to get one.

There were no reduced No7 items/Nivea/Cucumber range so not as bargain shop as some of you but still pleased to have used all the vouchers before they expire.

I'd give them a call as it's a recent sale so you'll remember otherwise you may well forget & that's a hellavalotta points

Was in London Colney this morning where they had plenty of the round P&P sets . Got one (the box is so big, I couldn't fit it in my basket ). Added No7 GWP and Illum Powder to basket. Gave SA 75pts wys £10 from ACM, 200pts wyb No7 from xmas compact and Illum Mag voucher. The last one beeped!! But SA managed to put the Illuminator through for free somehow, so I paid £20 and got a £5 voucher back. I think the P&P set is great value for money and will make a lovely pressie for MIL on Mothersday.

They had some reduced Cucumber stuff and Clearasil on the normal shelves, mixed in with the regular priced stuff. Tried a Nivea Q10 Night Cream but came up full price.

My GWP also has two vouchers in it (and I think the jewellery box is really cute ); 250pts wyb No7 Skincare and 300pts wyb Boots Feel The Difference Skin Perfection. No idea what the last thing is or what it costs , anyone know?

IIRC the packaging has changed - the old stuff is marked accordingly.

If you find the newer stock with the £6.79 label that is what you will be charged.

You need to hunt through the reduced gear for the old nivea stock.

i got some of the Q10 at the fort in birmingham last week - shelf edge 6.79 but scanned at the 1.70. founds loads of it today in nuneaton - exact same product with exact same packaging - scanned at 6.79. i said that it was reduced in another store and was scanning at 1.70 and that the sa had said that the reduction was because of a packaging change but she was having none of it and said that the first store "must have made a mistake". So it appears that there is no rhyme or reson with this one i am afraid - it was def exactly the same thing...

I was in watford on wednesday and didn't see the p&P set in either waterfields or harlequin....they didn't have the dream lash in black in harlequin and then they had mascara in waterfields but no illum powder! lol

I called ahead to london colney and they'v got 5 left!
hth!

Plenty of Illum powder in harlequin but still no P&P gift set!

Took my sister along for the experience of vouchers and GWP's she was thrilled and thought how funny it all was, she just couldn't beleive what she had got for her money! Or what I got for mine either come to think of it lol

Hi everyone! Well went bootsin for the first time in about 9 months...and it didnt work Gutted! I tried to get the boots no7 illuminating powder (which was being stashed behind the tills of the no7 counter!), a no7 body brush and the gwp. Added a shed load of other stuff to my basket...handed over the £5 no7 voucher and illuminating voucher from mag to unsuspecting saturday girl...but it wouldnt deduct the illuminating powder voucher. She then started to call someone over...what a nightmare! Just had to ask her to leave it, but spent £20 on the other items on basket. Nevermind! I can only suppose it was the body brush that wasnt compatible with the illuminating voucher. Just have to try again when I have the courage! A couple of years ago you could get away with loads in boots...I had so much stuff I could have opened up a retail outlet! But last year they were starting to get wise...and the birth of my third baby sort of put a halt to it all...but Im unsure as to whether Ill be able to get away with a much as I used to!

I'm sorry the voucher didn't go throgh for you - there seems to be no consistency between stores. I have used a few illum vouchers and have had no problems, however the one I used on Friday didn't go through (in the same shop as before). It didn't beep but the SA had to put it through a few times before it worked. Hope it works next time for you.

"Need to 'fess up - it was me who bought the last p&p set in Cheshire Oaks.

I was feeling withdrawal symptoms and I had a sanctuary £3 coupon burning a hole in my pocket, so on a whim I just nipped into Cheshire Oaks as it's only round the corner from me. When I got there I found I'd forgotten my voucher - doh!!!! and that's when I saw this lonely p&p set all on it's own, I know I've bought three as presents, but decided to treat myself seeing as at least I did have the pink no7 £5 voucher with me.:o

So sorry about that, it was me that ate all the pies (ok the P&P) "

Well, I'm sure you deserve one for yourself if the other three were all for presents. have you got 3 "mothers" to buy for or are you getting stuff for Christmas??!!It's a good recommendation for the set that you've bought 4, cos even though they're good value, they're not cheap,IYSWIM! Couple of questions: did you buy all 4 from C. Oaks and did you manage to get GWP and use £5 off No 7 each time? Hope you enjoy your set - I've never even tried the P&P before (and have got 3 Time Delay serums from the last £5 till split cos they are supposed to be very similar) but I've set my heart on getting one for my mum and one for me. Plus my friend who looked for me in COaks wants one for herself, so if you could leave 3 for us next weekend, that'd be great!:cheesy:

Another good boosting morning


So................for £86.02 worth of shopping (£185.02 if those GWPs are really worth £33 each;)) I paid a total of £23.38 and received £28.41 in points back on my card

The woman behind me in the queue....said "Oh my God...how did she do that":rotfl:and the young lad serving me said "wow you have done really well, but that's what these offers are there for" Lovely chap. Would have nominated him for staff member of the year he was so patient putting through my three shops.

Then I got three till survey spits in a row!
Boots card balance now at £147.....I am so loving this:T

Wow! They paid you to take stuff away! Well done!:T I take it you like the mousse foundation then! Where was your friendly Boots? Enjoy your goodies!
