I have to say that I've never had any problems with SA in the London Colney Boots they've all been lovely. It's great when you get such excellent customer service.

Also if anyone 'local' is after the No7 gift sets with the P&P they have loads on the No7 stand.

Thanks for the above info. I went to Uxbridge today in search of the P&P sets but they didn't have them. SA thought they sounded like a great deal! Might go to London Colney tomorrow and try my luck as I want one for a pressie.

Today I did get a Sanctuary Moisturising Lotion plus the Sanctuary GWP. Used the 75pts wys £10, paid real money (not points for a change) and got a £5 voucher.

Went round again. Picked up highlighter and No7 Eye/lip shimmer stick. Used mag voucher plus £5 voucher and paid 75p!! And got another magazine ofcourse .

I mentioned to the manager in my local store that the 2 AC machines had been out of order for a week, she said it was something to do with HO but would look into it. It has stopped me spending money in that store as I can't print any coupons. Oh well, that was my excuse for a trip to Uxbridge today .

Ohh a lovely fresh thread.

I have a £5 no7 voucher to use and need a new night cream, I use the hydro quench one at the mo but as I am getting towards mid thirties I think I need something a little more if you know what I mean lol. I was wondering if anyone had tried the time resisting or the uplifting ones and if so are they any good, also does anyone know what age the new protect and perfect moisturiser is aimed at and if you have tried it is that any good? thanks

ohhhh and I forgot to ask. The P&P gift sets, is the box that the P&P is in marked as 'part of a set' or anything like that. I was thinking of getting the gift set so I could try all the moisturisers but, as I have lots of P&P already giving that to the Mum in law for mothersday but didn't want her to know I had got it from a set, if you see what I mean.

Thanks in advance.

pmsl ive been doing it for years and i even had a list in my hand of which things to put through with which freebies and vouchers etc but then the little one bumped his head off my basket and cried, then started dancing and singing around the aisle while dh and the SAs stood and laughed, i was flustered and just wanted to get out incase i drew too much attention!! :rotfl:

I didn't notice anything:D

I've been into my little local Boots today and am rather chuffed with the result. I was going to go for the Sanctuary GWP, but couldn't find any of the GWP's, so gave up on that idea. However, I did find a small selection of No7 items on a stand in the aisle, so picked up a brush set that was marked as being £6.50, but I hoped may be reduced. I also got the Nivea Q10 for the extra points (full price, but am on a points collecting mission at the moment).

I attempted to use the 200 extra points (No7, from Christmas gift), but it wouldn't take it. The SA even checked to see what I'd been trying to buy, e.g. the brush set, but just said it wouldn't expect it. When it came to paying, I only got charged for the Nivea cream!

It's come up on the till as a 'GWP 2007', so I guess it must have been a freebie from sometime last year. I've never discovered a glitch before, and often feel a bit miffed to only have a small-ish store with no ACM for extra vouchers, so am really chuffed! I'm very tempted to go back tomorrow and see if it works again!

Did you get any of the 400 points on your Q10s? and how many points did you make in all?


Sob .no I didnt know about the Q10 points where can i get voucher for this as they had more. I always get it wrong i need a bootsing mentor.:o

Hi Mumhug,

The Q10 is on offer at the mo- 400 points with every puchase of facial Q10. If they didn't get added it must be because of the way they over-rided the till with it being reduced. Still you got a good bargain- I haven't been able to find any reduced at all.
Although did get some timotei brown highlights shampoo today reduced to 45p picked up two and they randomly went through as bogof :j

I've managed to do the No7 glitch for the GWP twice so far in Preston.

Both times I've paid at the perfume counter ... the SA there is lovely!

When the last £5 voucher was out, I would always go to her to pay for my Santuary masks (doing 6-7 transactions!!!). She nevers bats a eyelid and always comments what good deals I get!

BTW - there were 2 Q10 night creams on the shelf and I got really excited (already got 6!!) - but when she price checked them,they were £6.79!! How dare they try to sell at the correct price
