IMPORTANT - P&P SETS

I was talking to my favourite No7 SA today and asking her why she hadn't had any P&P sets in, as she was losing out, she is in a big store.
She said she had been asked many times for them and had rang head office to ask why they hadn't had them. She was told that only the big stores were getting them, but she is in a big store.
The person at her head office said she couldn't understand why they hadn't had any. So she asked if she could order some.

She was told that she couldn't order any as they had only had limited stock of them - hence why its only the bigger stores that got them, and they have now run out and have got no more to send out to shops.

So if your local store tells you they are expecting more in, unless they have been already been packed and are waiting to be sent out to them, it is unlikely that they will be getting them.

So buy them when you see them.

Thanks for this. I tried to get a couple in Cribbs Causeway this eve - that's a big store - but they didn't have any! Took the shine right off my shopping expedition,as that was the main thing I wanted. Hope there might be some left in Gloucester at the weekend!
Thanks!

Could I get the illuminating mirror £19.99, the free highlighter AND the GWP on no7 for free?
Can I also use the £5 pink voucher (if I can womble one!), add something else to take the total over £20?

its annoying that the mirror is not £20!!!!

Hi, I only found this site today and I'm a bit confused! This might sound a dumb question but how do you win all the competitions? And I noticed that someone had earned money as a mystery shopper? Does anyone know how you get into that? Can you earn money by going to sites then just clicking the links if that makes sense! Sorry to intrude but you all seem like nice people so shouldn't mind! Thanks so much, Lou.

Hi Lou, Lots of different boards for help with this, this thread is specifically for deals related to Boots and to increase your Boots points. If you click on forums (top right), you will see all the different boards. The freebies board is good for...freebies(including some survey sites)!, Quick Grabbit! board is good for cheap deals on various things. If you have a look on the special occasions and celebrations board, there is a thread on there called "2008 money neutral gift challenge" and we'd be more than happy to help you get started on survey sites - can anyone else think of a thread/board that has all these together?

You should be able to. As long as the mirror is over £9.75 it will work with the highlighter and GWP. Put mirror, highlights powder and GWP through the till.
The till sees the highlighter as £10.25 so your total spend will be over £20, entitling you to GWP, then you hand over the highlighter voucher and a pink £5 voucher too if you have one. Don't do this at the No7 till though
You might not be able to use the pink voucher though as it's not valid for beauty accesories or electrical No7.

Might be wrong but I didn't think you could get the mirror because its not skincare etc

Someone will come along and put us on the right track

is there a link anywhere to the illuminating mirror? I've never seen one and would be interest to see what everyone is talking about...and maybe I might just need one!

Edit...sorry - found it now. I was searching for illuminating mirror...and boots.com has it as illuminated mirror

The £5 off excludes electricals so you will have a problem with that. In my experience the highlighter doesn't work with much other than the skincare and cosmetics {although it says with any no 7 product }and have even then had some problems if attempting to get the gwp as some have said they have set it so you can't have both.
As to the gift with purchase I don't know whether you can get that with the electricals either would make a great mothersday combo though. As always depends on sa willingness. The highlighter vouchers are a bit on the scarce side as some stores have got the new mag although not supposed to have out till March. Good luck would quite like the mirror myself.
