    Hi Passion & ladies
    [snipped]

    I received a phone call from the PC store manager this afternoon.

    LOL, you make me laugh Ruby :D I wish I could be more like you :) but good on you for persevering. That store needs a good shake up at times.

    Re the hatboxes, there was so many on the MF display they were practically falling off the counter :confused:;) I was tempted by ebay too, but decided against.

    I have to ask ...why do you have to meet a team leader?

    why not just get 2 items to go over £15 and then get the box and then say "i've got some mpre shopping to get now", wander off and just put the items back somewhere else?

    This works...have tried an tested many times. Keep's em off your back :D:D

    I'm not sure it has to look just like the picture -- the huffy SA I had told me it had to be Trevor Sorbie Professional. I thought they were all that, but then I noticed it didn't say the word "professional" on my bottle. The ones in the pic are more a tube, and I grabbed a bottle.

    Edited to add: If it turns out all the Trevor Sorbie is Professional and she was supposed to enter the coupon manually, someone let me know and I will call CS and raise a fuss! Maybe they'll give me points or something!

    The trevor sorbie pc voucher for free conditioner that we can use with £2 off till spit...does it really have to be the one in the picture? Just says: "use this coupon to get a free trevor sorbie professional conditioner when you buy any trevor sorbie professional shampoo". It has a picture of the moisture range on the front, but no details on the back of any relevance! Does the till not do it then? If not...could this not be argued as per the expert mag voucher?

    Found another glitch at boots today - by accident!!!

    http://www.boots.com/brandtreatment/...tionid=1037318


    This is marked up at £3.99 - 2 flavours - Aztec Gold & Warm Bronze - both scan at £1!!!!!

    Buy 2 and the lip glaze, and a Wisdom Fresh Effect toothbrush, use the 2 vouchers from the Boots mag.....and pay 99p for all 4 items!!!
    :j

    Also met another MSEr who was lovely!!!! We stood together ripping the vouchers out!!! Lol!!!!
    Minx01 what a fab find that instant glow was ..thanks ever so 1 flavour (as you put it) goes through at 75p and the other at a £1. :T

    Went to Cheshire Oaks tonight shop dead empty it was fab.

    Got

    2 x wisdom toothbrushes
    2x instant glow ( 1 of each colour)
    1 x lip shine
    1 x S & G clean of England
    1 x S & G heel balm

    all for £10.98 and 800pts:D

    They had several make up brushes reduced they had a few Ruby and Millie ones and some other makes (can't remember and cannot find them online!) They also had reduced hair accessories , all these were on the main shelves not in the clearance section (which was poor !) nothing took my fancy though.

    They also had the new Sanctuary GWP although it is not GWP online!

    :A
    This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.

    Hi Passion & Ruby (& everyone else!)

    Just thought I would post a quick one to say hi and gutted I can't "boots" this weekend as I am on day shifts :(

    Glad you got a MF box passion - was it the black one? Where from? I am thinking of investing in one of their foundations and need a new mascara so might get 2 x MF things if the GWP is worth it?? I saw the pink one somewhere but I wasn't too keen (well not keen enough to spend so much money just to get it).

    Hope you are all well, I am off to bed now but would be grateful if you could pm me passion and let me know which box it was you got and which store?

    Thanks In Advance.

    Night All (I'm up at 6 :( )

    gawd you can be so polite:D shake up the store needs a bomb dropping on it (I know upstairs looks as though it has!)

    I just go by my rule I would never belittle a SA or speak rudely to them so don't do it to me. They do I'll whinge;)

    Thanks Ruby :) x OH thinks I might have shingles :eek: but I doubt it :)
    And ban you? :eek: Who would CS talk to if you were banned? ;) I'm sure they had someone retraining the staff last week btw.

    Btw, the Rembrandt toothpaste is £2 in Kingston Retail - so approx. 75% off (and I've just remembered another thing ....and forgotten it already! :o Will try to think through the shopping :)

    well i got the brunette ones, and on the funny shaped lid they did say "trevor sorbie professional" - sa didn't have to enter it manually. (these two were the ones i got... http://www.boots.com/brandtreatment/product_details_brand_treatment.jsp?productid=1066936&classificationid=1042418 and http://www.boots.com/brandtreatment/product_details_brand_treatment.jsp?productid=1066935&classificationid=1042418 (excuse long links)

    i did have a bit of an issue using my £2 tillspit on lee stafford light spray wax, till came up saying it was a miniature, even though it wasnt - nice sa overrode that. anyone else had any issues like that?
