    My sister picked up 4 bottles of the above at £6.50 per bottle in Liverpool last week. They had quite a lot at the time but she couldn't carry any more. Went back the next day and it had all gone. Saw it in Chester and it was still full price £13 per bottle.

    Anyone else find any?

    Yes my local had them but i was a bit too late as the no7 SA was grabbing them all. It made me laugh as i asked how much were they at full price and The SA said oh champagne was £25 and the hatboxes and S&G sets were £20 I think she was trying to get me to think i was getting a really good deal but up the prices a bit. This would have been perfect for a added gift my bil's wedding.

    I used the S&G soap (forget whats it called?! :o)

    Usually don't much like soap/y products as my skin dries out too quickly, but I have to say I'm impressed so far, it was lovely and creamy ;) when I've used a soap before, my skin feels tight (in an uncomfortable way straight away but this still feels fab)

    OH thought it was great too :p

    Gonna get some more if the ACM will play ball :D

    Can anyone tell me how soon points go on for a .com delivery? Would they be there say, tomorrow, when my delivery was on Thursday? Still learning :j

    Many thanks!

    BTW, all the best for those "regulars" here who are going through the wringer healthwise at the mo, bless you! Don't really know you but I think You all are fab xx



    I got my points added to my card the day before my delivery arrived last week.

    Been to 3 Boots' today. [snipped]

    Hiya Jo, morning people :)

    Looks like you had a good day out, so well done, and glad to see your Mum enjoyed it too! :) I nearly bought those heel inserts, so I'm glad I put them back now - they've gone to a good home lol. It was one of those 'will I, won't I' moments, and the 'won't I' won ...iyswim ;)

    You'll have to let me know which SA served you - we got held up at the tills as oh bought two of those freeze sticks too lol, tried the voucher, but it was a no-go, so to get an SA that actually helped you to save even more is a real bonus - well done :D

    The same SA said his haircare voucher wouldn't work, added the £1.99 manually :confused: but forgot to scan the voucher anyway lol. He didn't spot it, but the same SA did, said she'd overcharged him, so redid it all again! lol. I think she'd forgotten to take her HRT ;) but well spotted on her part :) She forgot to charge us for 1 x Strepsils though and I'd usually point this out (in case the alarm went off lol), but figured we'd wasted 50p's worth of time anyway.

    In PC we had a similar experience, but in reverse. Noticed when we got home that not only had the ACM voucher for the S&G Heel stuff not been deducted, neither had the magazine voucher, so will pop back some time later - another 30 miles round trip ;) I'll have to remember to check the receipts instore lol.

    Btw, I was telling oh how you'd spotted me, and he reckons he spotted you :rotfl: I reminded him about the leaking 17 lip glaze, and his memory recall being what it is (good lol), he said he'd noticed someone watching me and presumed it was a store detective :rotfl: But he even described you to me lol. Then when we went in KW, I thought I'd spotted you ...well your head ;), because there was a girl in there with a red scalp, but remembered that you'd coloured your hair a while back so couldn't be you :D Spent half the day looking for purple-haired people nevertheless lol.

    Good luck with the e-mail :)

    Dollardog, I'm going to try the same transaction later, (if I ever get away from this pc lol), so will let you know what happens :) At worst it'll cost a bit extra, at best it might turn out to be free.

    And hogshead .... Happy Birthday. I hope it's a good one and that you're feeling much better :) x

    If you log into Boots.com, click onto "my account" and scroll down to the bottom you can check your advantage card points total and it shows any that are pending from orders at .com. Sometimes you have to press the button a couple of times to get the info up for some reason.
    Mine tends to varies when points are ready, last week it was the despatch date but have seen them go on upto 7 days after.

    I've had five mags but only had one with the Dermagenesis samples in. It also had an advertising insert between the vouchers and the back cover, didn't notice what it was for though, the other mags haven't got it. :confused:

    I've had 4 mags and 3 def had the samples in (I can't remember whether the 4th did:D ). Think they all had the insert in too - advertising products to make you look and feel your best for longer!

    Morning passion, and the rest of you lovely ladies!

    That is so weird that the freeze sticks didnt go through, the only thing I can think of is the way that she put them through the till. She scanned both of them and then it must have flashed up to say they were on 3 for 2 so she said grab something else, i got the freeze lotion and she scanned that and THEN she put the coupon through, so it had already taken cheapest item off which was the lotion at 75p, then the bogof coupon kicked in and took a stick thing off. The sa was middle aged with brown shoulder length hair - i will try and get her name if I see her again lol. Admittedly, she did look dubious about putting them through but I just smiled and asked nicely and made a joke by saying that "you don't get if you don't ask" which she agreed with.

    I can't believed your oh thought he saw me again lol. It may have been me because my hair isn't as purple as it was anymore (after 50+ washes with crappy head and shoulders!!). When i was in PC that day, you were stood right infront of me at the 17 stand but I had my hair curly that day as it was the morning after a night out and couldn't be bothered to straighten it lol. When I was in Kingswood, I would have had natural straight hair but I always wear my 3/4 length black double breasted jacket so if you (or anyone else) spots me - give me a nudge!! I am sure I would recognise you and your oh again, spesh if you were both carrying baskets and had a handfull of vouchers lol! You are a pro!! (and so is your oh - do you loan him out lol?)

    I may venture to kingswood today so will let you know if I get anthing good :)

    Hope you have a great day

    Jo xx
