...So would I:D or a 99p store. Poundstretchers has closed too. Imagine getting a 99p store and poundland...in my dreams:rotfl:

DD bought loads of jewellery from woolies the other day. Everything was 10p:D I forgot to have a look in there today though. Did you get much?

I'm in London tomorrow. I'll be popping into Boots in Ken high st, oxford street and nottinghill...hopefully. And maybe a few other stores. Will report back if I find any bargains:D

We have both of those in my nearest town:D

Thanks Orlaith you just answered wendym's question I think

Interesting to note that bogof's work with points though

Oh dear - sorry to be thick but I didn't understand when Orlaith said "So you aren't getting bonus points, you are actually saving points, just as you save money", (when she was talking about a link-save). Can anyone explain ?
Many thanks!

Off the subject but Lutonians do we know who is going into Woolies when they close?

I would like a massive poundland lol

:hello: Hi there fellow Lutonians, thanks for your advice. Only just read it now as logged off after posting my message and watched Sport Relief.

Thanks for the reminder about the mag 100 points voucher for No7 men. I forgot I had that one too!! Do you know if I would be able to use both the mag 100 points the previous No7 GWP 250 points and the £3.00 of from the sandwich at all or can you only use one points voucher at a time. I will be going into town first thing after dropping youngest DD of at school and it is always quiet then and I worry that the SA's will have more time then to read the vouchers and turn me down!!!!:o

As for the Woolies - I have been told that Marks and Spencers are moving there as its bigger but not sure its that much bigger than where they are at the moment!!!
Thanks again:T
(Off to work soon - my store is having a refit at the moment and we have just started selling some of our old lines 50% and 75% off (Supermarket food etc.. not Boots though!!) and I'm hoping I will have some money left to spend in Boots on Monday!!!!)

I managed to get the 'free' MF GWP yesterday. I did buy a MF foundation too though (which I wanted anyway), I wasn't brave enough to try it on it's own It's actually very nice I think, a decent selection of goodies and better than the No7 pink one imo. Shame about the out of date extra points voucher though :rolleyes:

Also got the S&G Heel Genius for my friend, she asked me to pick one up for her and as she doesn't have an AC (:eek: ) I got the points, used both vouchers so got 400 pts for free

No clearance section to be found at all, they haven't had one in Coventry for about 2 weeks now

I did pick up a pink S&G bag which I hadn't seen before. It had no price label. Was about the same size as the Travel Agent bag from xmas but was suede and contained 500ml clean on me shower gel, the righteous butter and something else. Took it up to the SA to price check it (I was very polite) and it was £15. I said I'd leave it then thanks. She tutted at me :eek: How rooooode.

I've asked this before but I think it got missed - does anyone know when the next lot of mailings come out?

Someone has reported that you can use all vouchers/points & £3.00 off together to get Mens No 7, and someone has reported that they were refused, so it depends on the SA you pick. Will try all of them later and report back.

Just a note that the Mascara exchange ends tomorrow (16th). I think.

is this to exchange the GWP mascara that loads of you have been allergic to - what do you have to say to get it exchanged? thanks

I was allowed to use the 250 points from the gwp, the 100 points from the mag, and the £3 from the sandwiches yesterday in Walsall when buying a mens no. 7. That was even at the no. 7 counter, got 6 more to use so will try again today.

Oh dear me too, I was hoping someone else would have replied to this

The only (easy) example I can give is when I said I'd redeemed some points in exchange for an item of fcuk from the clearance section, which was priced at £1.60. There must have been a third off the fcuk that day, as instead of taking 160 points off, it took 160 points but then gave me 54 points back.

So there's no added points as such, you just redeem less points than the item would normally have deducted. Therefore it's points that you're saving on.

That didn't help at all did it *Jelly Tots*? :rotfl:

I'll try again later - but it's not that exciting

As for the Woolies - I have been told that Marks and Spencers are moving there as its bigger but not sure its that much bigger than where they are at the moment!!!

Ah but the Woolies site is more visual than where M&S are now, you could miss it if you didn't know it was there!

I'm all shopped out from yesterday so no Boots trip for me today but looking forward to hearing about everyone's bargains later

Who will find the next glitch.....the race is on, there must be one out there somewhere
