Thanks for all the advice you tarts - I managed to get 2 No17 eyepencils ( lovely colours) plus the lip gloss for £3.49, plus 2 lots of the S&G cleanser for £5 each, but 400 points back on each - courtesy of A.C machine and voucher in this months mag.

Oh I just got exactly the same purchses as you, did each one in a sepaate transaction ( threw a birthday card in 17 transaction to make it over £5) and got 3 lots of £2 hair vouchers!!

Has anyone use the TS PC combined with the new 2.00 HC voucher?
I wombled 3 vouchers today. I don't think many peeps like the new haircare voucher

I wondered if this might work too. Too busy getting my purchases to have to "think" about my next combinations!

:cheesy: its not really big as in size but its pretty packed full of stuff i think!

My mum only uses basic toiletries, like me! and ive just remembered that the hairsprays and most of the shampoos and conditioners were from boots too!! so it is mostly a boots hamper!:D

Sounds like a Boots Pamper Hamper to me and I'm sure she'll love it
No S&G sets at all :eek: - which is all I went out for really, but picked up a few odds and ends on clearance - and used points! Got oh a Dior Homme EDT, down from £46 to £20. It's lovely imo - and I sprayed some on myself to try it and am already eyeing up the pocket size that came with it lol. (Smells nice on him too )

Picked up a S&G bag, still free but placed with S&G range now. Nobody seemed to be bothering with them at £2.50 (I wonder why lol) and I didn't spot anyone that looked friendly enough to tell them they were free (Saturday morning shoppers are always in a rush!)

The purple velour bags (Prospect) were down from £12 to £3. First time I've seen them this week, so bought one lol.

The Boots expert post-natal shampoo & conditioner was going for 25p, (Kingston Retail), so bought a couple. OH looked at me like I had two heads and asked why I wanted post-natal conditioner. I reminded him that I was post-natal ....by 30+ years lol. Makes no difference does it? and it has to beat the one I've been using (aveda :rolleyes: ) I hope! Wouldn't take the voucher from the mag, but wasn't really bothered at that price.

Dr Nick Lowe stuff was reduced (Kingswood) so used even more points on some eye stuff and the trial sized stuff in leather bag. I'm not sure why it was reduced, apart from one of the tags on the zip being iffy

Can't think of anything else for now, but I'll be back if I remember anything

That is really impressive - now I get how this really works - I need to be on time with mags and GWPs for this to really work.

I spent £41 to get 2700 points last week - wish I' could have done it your way!!

Well done:T:T

Like it! I have enough shampoo to last me all year now I think - and I have long hair - so I'm trying hard not to be tempted by shampoo, no matter how cheap!

Sounds like you did well, lucky thing! - let us know what yo think of the Nick Lowe stuff - it's usually pretty pricey, IMO!

I still haven't even managed to get a single H&B mag yet - going to try to spend the last of my £5 vouchers tomorrow - what's the betting that there's none of the cheap No 7 Men's stuff left?! - so a handful of vouchers to combine with that would have been great.

All seems a bit flat now the highlighter things finished - or is that just me?
Em joy your evening, ladies!

I agree - it's definitely gone a bit flat. As I said in an earlier post - 17 stuff doesn't really interest me too much - and it would have to be free (or equivalent in points) for me to bother.

I have some hair care till spits, but haven't worked out whether I will use them or not

DH is actually looking forward to a rest (cos he has to take me to Boots everytime) and is therefore quite relieved at a possible break on a month:rotfl:

Clare - I had to hunt for a couple of the Mens No7 things! In the store I went to the No7 display was almost empty, but there were 2 more displays dotted around the store!!

Hope u find some!!;)

The 5ml Frizz-Ease goes through as a freebie with the haircare voucher, even though it's tiny it doesn't seem to count as a mini. It could go in a hamper if it's not something that you use, it's a shame to waste the vouchers.
