Can I confirm: Could I buy a Highlighter and No.7 face powder (£10.50) and use £5 pink voucher, 250 points off No7 voucher and get a GWP ?
And also: When does GWP finish ?

No.....not at all. I typed something and it made no sense whatsoever. I had just got up from a late night (DS was 22 last night and came home singing bless him:rotfl:). I typed the post, submitted it....read it....and realised I had typed a load of twaddle so to speak....couldn't think how to put it right....so deleted the whole thing and went and made a cup of tea!

Mansfield Four Seasons had loads of things on the clearance shelves today, couldn't write them all down, but there were lots of the S&G Steamy Showers sets @ £7.50 ( I bought one to get the Rightous Butter that everyone on here raves about), Garnier eye creams @£4.24, Sanctuary Cleansing balms (with a muslin cloth inside) @ £2.50, some sort of Sanc. set with sachets in for feet, @£1.12, R&M face and body gold powder? @ £2.50 (loads of them), Basics baby bath @ 21p, King of Shaves stuff and loads of other things. They were on shelves opposite the sun creams, some sun creams also on offer.

I bought 4 x Sanc Cleansing Balms @ £2.50, (don't know how much they should've been, I bought them to get the GWP))
Sanc. GWP
3 x big bags Malteesers, reduced to 80p
1 x S&G Steamy Showers set (£7.50 from £15)

Spent £19.90 of points.
Didn't see any P&P sets in there.

Then went to Nottingham Victoria Centre, they had P&P sets opposite the door as you go in from Parliament St, even though the notice that you see as you go up the escalator the other end says they have sold out.
They also had a lot of the Accessorise Hat boxes (I can see why people like the boxes!!) £9 from £18, No7 Illuminating mirrors @£19.99, some S&G Steamy Shower sets @£7.50 and some of the Sanc Weekend Retreat bags (full price @£20).
The reduced things are again, as you go in from Parliament Street, towards the wall on the left.
I got given a GWP by a lady that didn't want hers (she actually wasn't going to get it until I told her she was entitled to one). Thank you if it was anyone on here.

I also got 3 x sets of 3 free photos with the mag offer at Mansfield and at Victoria Centre.

Then I went to another shop to collect my 7 x 3 free photos that I had ordered the other day but hadn't had time to fetch. Big thank you to the person who told us that we could just go in and have the 3 free ones each time :T.

I already had a 250 point voucher to spend, then also took the one out of the GWP I had been given. 'Found' 2, (or rather retrieved from where I had hidden them on a previous trip, in case of emergencies!!), 25p tanning wipes got 2 highlighters and used the mag vouchers and 250 points coupons in seperate transactions. The 250 points wouldn't go through, but the young SA standing next to the one serving me said they never go through and she would add the points for me at the end,

I got 2 x highlighters,
2 x tanning wipes,
paid 50p and got 500 points!!

IlonaRn..... your post 1286 makes it look like I was saying take back the highlighters..... not good quoting, as it was somebody different to me that suggested it!

Sorry, Liverbird! I quoted someone further up the same page. Will try and fix it now!

Edit: fixed it. Sorry, it was sloppy quoting. I just didn't go back to see who it was that suggested taking them back (this thread goes so fast!!)

Link to # of Boots Thread, SVP? I LOVE reading about this stuff, even though I'll probably be kicking myself for missing it.

It involves trawling thru some MASSIVE! threads but

Boots Grabbit Bargains part 5

is roughly around the time it happened (start of 2006) . ISTR there were about 2 or 3 separate threads all about the same thing (the offer and the main boots thread) so it was a bit of a mess!

Thanks for that Hesjane - thought it was something I'd said (paranoia creeping in - lol).
By the way - your earlier post about all your bargains is inpirational !!! :T I bet everyone's comparing their vouchers to yours as we speak.

Does anyone know if you can get Refine and Rewind in 200ml packs...or is it Protect & Perfect Beauty Serum that comes in the one year supply (are Boots indicating that if you are old enough to need Refine and Rewind....you won't need a year's supply cos you may not last that long)

Sorry, I can't remember who posted that they wanted an opinion of Origins and Clinique system as they had problem skin, and haven't got time to go back and find the post, but I have found some samples of the Clinique system so if you would like to pm me, you can have them to try.

I have never seen the R&R in bigger packs. I think they only do the P&P in the big ones because of all the hype last year.

Oh that was brilliant! I returned about £200 worth of the stuff in the end.

What did you say when you returned them please and what did they give you was it an exchange
