Gunwharf Quays. I only went down there to call into the Paper Mill - never been before. Paper Mill was fab, SA was so helpful. Boots dead opposite. Quite small, limited stock, and miserable SA

oh... I work in gunwharf and i pop in there everyday. :rotfl: but seldom bought stuff there, as stock are very limted as you said.
I found the SA works in pharmcy are the most nice and helpful.

That's good You could carry it really, it'd just be a bit awkward lol. I've been making a few over the last couple of days, but need a couple of bits and bobs to make some of the things to stay put!

Sale 1
Face scrub mens No7: used 250 pts from GWP 100pts from mag £5 pinky No7 paid £1

Sale 2
Hair & body mens No7: as above

Having enough points for the No7 mirror, thanks to the 250pts from GWP I go to the No7 counter to enquire re the mirror. I say what is the cheapest clearance item as this is just 1p short of the £20 GWP & SA says nothing instore in sale. I say I might pop to another store & hope they have something to enable the sale. I then say I just bought 2 No7 mens skincare should have thought to have put them through with the mirror ( knowing as I wanted to pay for mirror with points I'd planned it that way )
Anyway she kindly says let me see what I can do, goes off to talk to manager, brief convo re the mens No7 & I get the nod so I get the mirror paid with points & the GWP.

Great shop hogshead, really well planned and manouevred I wish I could think that logically lol.

Patchouli, that takes me back to Biba days, I'm feeling happy already! Wonder if it will work on grumpy teens....:rotfl:

Anyone who likes patchouli, have a look at the Boots Essential Aromatherapy range. There's a third off at the mo. I got the gift set last year and the ylang-ylang and patchouli body cream is lovely:

My OH says I smell like an incense stick when I'm wearing it though so be warned-it is quite strong smelling but it does have a relaxing effect.

LO, passion8. Sorry, I don't know. The Boots online store locator says they are, 'in the process of updating their opening hours'. Rats - always say that when I try to check any!:mad:

Thanks Is that the same range that does the small bottles of stuff that you put on your pulse points? (I can't think of the proper description lol)
