Was in Fort Kinnaird Edinburgh......
Plenty of the £1.99 JF serums and some S&G bags.

The bags at Fort don't go through free anymore, tried yesterday morning and they go on at £2.50.

At straiton they have loads of King of Shaves reduced to £1-2. I never printed my voucher so could not try it and they also had loads of Camera bags.
Boots Ocean Terminal have the Expert Shampoo reduced to 46p right at the back of the shop.

Found some bargains yesterday too. A flight bag full of bits n bobs marked down to £2.00 but went through the til at 20p. Some Thorntons chocs down to £2, a pair of Pink Sony earphones at £4.00 and a Lee Stafford Hot shots set reduced to £3.74(used my haircare voucher against this)

Had my orders from dot.com today, couple of free shower gels and coupons but no magazines

Had two of the free Kylie bags with the perfumes I bought, nice but more for make up than toiletries as wouldn't hold many bottles.

Sally06, hope you hear from your doctor really quickly and that you're feeling a but better today.

Hi geordie_lass I keep spotting this but not as cheap! Might hang on and see if it goes down a bit but does anyone know what it's like fragrance wise?

I'm tempted by the description of it, and need to use a few points up (That's the poorest excuse I can think of lol)

Apparently it's a unisex fragrance, description here from the web:

"The formula is a scientific brew. Top notes of bergamot, orange and pimento berry are amazing picker-uppers and energizers. Middle notes of cocoa, praline and curacao provide the bliss … theobromine and phenyethylamine from cacao have an drug-like effect similar to eating chocolate. Hmmm.. I’m starting to wonder if it’s better to drink this bottle or whiff it. Either way, scientist worth her degree knows that fragrances do have a direct line to the brain. Why else would we love them so much? Bottom notes are patchouli, myrrh and musk for their sedative, peace-giving qualities, not to mention a sexy, earthy twist."

Maybe we should just burn incense and eat a chocolate orange? :rotfl:

Morning Deb and all

I'll try to check - I'd hand over the No7 one I haven't used, after all the detrimental posts it's been getting.

Just quoting myself lol, but take back what I said about the mascara I mentioned. I might ask to swap it, after reading this:

Don't forget the wine :rotfl:

Thanks for that geordie_lass, for the explanation and the laugh I love the smell of patchouli, so might see if they've got a tester.

Morning everybody! Feedback from boots for no7 gwp mascara.
I had a phonecall this morning from boots customer service about the reaction that I and alot of other people have had.They are looking into it but it may take a while before they can find out exactly what is causing these reactions but they will be contacting me as soon as they have news.They have apologised and have given me a full refund of the value of the items I purchased on the day to get the gwp even though I used vouchers-£10.25 for the no7 skin spritz & £10.25 for the highlights powder and they are sending me a no7 giftcard to buy another mascara with.I thought this was really generous as I had used the free mag & £5 no7 voucher but apparently the lovely man on the phone said the vouchers are classed as cash.
