I agree, if Boots had meant this offer to go to AC holders only, then they would have made it an ACM offer only and/or sent out one voucher per AC holder in a mailing.
Each time they give away a powder they sell at least one other No7 item at full price

It's obvious isn't it geordie_lass? If Boots had thought they'd be losing any significant amount of money on this offer, they'd have discontinued it, put a 'sold out' sign up, locked the drawer where the No7 SA's keep it etc etc. I didn't quote all of your post just in case :rotfl:

I initially used this offer sucessfully when BES was on half price and the voucher took off half the original price so you got the item free and 1p off your shopping. Having tried several times in several stores for the baby wipes glitch (and failed) i studied my vouchers (kindly donated by several ladies off here after my handbag was stolen). I have noticed there are 2 different barcodes so am wondering if it only works with a particular voucher. Will try other voucher and see if that works as DD1 needs some wipes (we get thro hundreds i think). Wondered if this is why its not working for everyone.

On a positive note went to Trafford Centre yesterday, armed with said donated vouchers and got:-

No7 Dream lash mascara
Illum powder
GWP
100 points
used £5 off no7 pink and £5 off no7 pc, SA said it won't take both but asked her to try it and it worked so i paid 50p

Went to another till and got the same again but only had pink voucher so paid £5.50 but still happy.

Cheered me up after my burglar so thanks to anyone who donated to me.
LOL

Well i have to say after hearing all the comments on the Boots Expert Scar Serum i'm def going to get some! I had a my daughter 8 weeks ago by c section & it's all healed nicely so going to try this on it. I have to agree that I tried Bio Oil & didnt really like it.

Sorry to hear about your bag, off topic, but i live near the trafford centre & had my bag stolen in the printworks (manchester) a couple of weeks ago, it didn't go missing in there did it? I'm sure they had a scam going, someone was taking photos for keyrings when my bag went missing. Sorry to ramble was just wondering if you had the same.
Well done with your TC haul, i going back there on friday, hopefully they might have the p&p sets by then

I was involved in the original comparison of the ingredients of the serum. let me go back and find the post and I will re-post it.

palmitoyl pentapeptide-3

So you can compare the ingredients. (Also, apart for Parfum, the Time Delay Wrinkle reducing night serum is exactly like the P+P.)

Jo_2k, if you don't mind my asking, what do you use the scar serum for? My OH has an old scar on his face, would it be any good for him. TIA

The above ingredients are all in the scar serum. Only 1 from your list is not, there are other ingredients in the scar serum lower down the list but the top ones are identical!!!!!
It says on the box"By simply massaging it in every day for three months, we've found it noticeably softens, smoothes and conditions skin. So, scars appear lighter and more even in tone and the profile of the skin appears more even"
It also says to use it on blemish(mark?) or stretchmark.
The box contains 50mls and is on special at £3.99 but you can get an ACM for 100 points!

Got the New magazine tonight and here are the new offers all valid 27/2/08 - 6/5/08!!!!


200 points when you buy any soap and glory spa product(excludes the "pink" s & g range).
K.:rotfl::T

I hope the Soap and Glory goes off offer before the 27th as I ordered about 8 products today plus a few minis and would be gutted it it stays on offer and I would have had the extra points! Probably wouldnt have got a mag anyway, only got them this time as they popped some in my internet orders but they never have done before.

I went into Westfield Derby yesterday and bought:

1 No7 Line Lift - £12
2x 17 Eyeshadows (2 for £5 with voucher from acm)
Highlighter
No7 GWP
17 GWP

Total cost £12 after using pink £5 voucher/illum voucher + 370 points with
250 pts voucher from GWP/100 pts from acm.

SA couldn't have been more helpful, when I was fumbling in my bag for the illum voucher she offered to cut one out of the mag & she gave me 2 £5 vouchers.

I think I did rather well
