    Hi Ruby and Passion

    Thanks for the update on Prospect Centre. Do any of you know if there are any reduced valentines stuff in Kingswood?? I tried Kingston Retail park the other day but there was nothing at all and couldn't even find a reduced shelf in there so was not a happy bunny!! Also, do any of you know if there are any S&G reduced items/offers on or anything? (other than the 1/3 off). I have never used it before and sick of hearing everyone rave about it and not be able to join in the conversation!! :D

    TIA

    Hiya Jo_2k :) I knew there was someone else that was near(ish) to me but I'd forgotten who it was, sorry about that :o:D

    Kingston Retail usually have a tiny clearance shelf; it's where they've stuck the Mother's day display, and now and then they have another shelf near the baby stuff at the back. It's easy to miss though as there's not much on it lol :)

    Kingswood are doing 3 for 2 on S&G miniatures, Elle, fcuk, and Sanctuary, with a gift bag thrown in for each 3 you buy, it's an empty gift bag lol, but free. I'm having a wander to Prospect later, so I'll see if there is anything in there (doubt there will be ;)) and Kingswood. I'll let you know if it's worth going to :)

    I've bought loads of the Soap & Glory but still haven't gotten round to use it - need to use the Sanctuary up first lol, but it seems like most people like it, so I'll try a miniature later.

    (We'll all have to text each other - then send a message if there's anything good going on lol)

    Ooops, forgot to say that I'd be popping into Kingston Park too, so I'll see if there's any reductions there x

  • Morning all! Don't know if this has already been mentioned, but if you need to 'bump up' your order slightly for free del. or to use a points code, then 3 of these http://www.boots.com/shop/product_details.jsp?productid=1030202&classificationid=1041140 will get you 4 and a gwp!
    3 for 2 plus 1 more to get the gwp.
    HTH!

    Perhaps if all you young mums got together and asked Boots to provide a creche, imagine the fun you could all have.:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:


    Ohhh imagine that!!;)

    I would have to buy a bigger house to store all my goodies though!

    Not very MSE, but some things can't be helped!:rotfl: :rotfl:

    I was going to ask you guys this....

    ....thats what I thought, an SA who was serving me the other day was about to scan the mag must have remembered me and stopped and asked me if I had had one before and it was one per person. I said its one per transaction as far as I was aware and that if I wasn't allowed one then the till wouldn't let me would it. She scanned it and it was fine. :D

    I felt like asking if she was the Boots police!!

    lol :)

    I had a really uncomfortable experience regarding those magazines, and I refuse to use one No7 counter in one particular store. (Not that I use many No7 counters to be served lol). One SA mentioned the fact that I'd used 1 for a transaction already, and because I was using another one, she gave me some blurb about 1 x per advantage card etc etc. I felt like a thief! What she didn't know, (and I'd forgotten) was that I'd received a few magazines via online deliveries! .... but I've never personally used the highlighter voucher since, that's how embarrassing it was.

    Last week I'd forgotten my advantage card, and mentioned it as I went through a till in another store. She said it didn't matter, didn't even bother to scan it, and the voucher inside was used in another store.

    So I guess the moral of the story is: if a SA does query the use of magazine vouchers, tell them they're from another store or an online delivery ;):D

    Swansea Boots reduced shelf looked very skimpy yesterday, mostly sticky bottles and broken makeup, with some small clothes. No sign of the hat boxes etc - pity!

    I'd try it on legs or something not too predominant, no need to waste good products :)

    Some days most of me feels predominant :D, but I'll give it a try on somewhere that's not noticeable on me - like my OH's leg or something :rotfl:

    Is there any reason to have a second Boots Advantage card? I use the one that's in my husband's name, and I would want to use that most of the time to accrue points on one card. But are there ever good deals that are one per card?
