I went to the Hounslow boots yesterday and completely agree with you. Absolutely rubbish! I went with my sis and we were really deflated after we left. I had also thought about going to the Twickenham branch yesterday, glad I didn't now! When is the store reopening as it might be worth a trip then?
Definitely no Max Factor boxes in Richmond. Not been to the others.
There wasn't a re-opening day on the windows or doors. Just some sign saying it was being refitted.
I drive past every day to work (bar weekends) so I will tell you when it's reopened.0 -
managed to use up my 2 remaining sanctuary £3 coupons that expire today - they go through on the kyphi stuff with no bleeps - yay!!0

Hi everyone
Finally managed to read all 73 pages (over 3 days lol) and still be awake enough to post something at the end
I really wanted those No7 nail kits (I noticed the sly nudge about them last monday evening but op didn't mention a price) but they still said £10 instore last tuesday and No7 girl assured me they were (they're £15 each on .com btw
) - anyway lucky me there was 3 on the shelf in K Lynn when I got there today.
Checked the sale stuff and also got:
tiny box No7 eye pallet 50p
wax strips £1.25
hair dye touchup 50p from £3.99
sony earphones £2
spray for dh, can't remember but reduced to £4.13 and smells divine (bday May)
plus the elusive No7 nail kits x 3 for £5.00 (£2.50 each on 3 for 2)
Paid 1338 in points :j
Got the 2 med vouchers from the ACM but no soaps on the shelf and a oos sticker over the SEL so it did make me think they knew and had taken them off but then I also thought that maybe peeps had just been using the voucher :rotfl:
Couldn't bring myself to break into the blue bag for the soap so off I toddled to Costa to swoon over my purchases
PS
anyone using Norwich, K Lynn, Dereham etc feel free to drop me a pm0 -
it was 12.47 today when bham-dave got the med glitch HTH...0

I have also looked in a couple of smaller branches with no joy.
I'm hoping for some on Saturday as I have some points vouchers to use and I want to try a few things. Let me know if you find any and I'll let you know

I went back to St Helens Ravenhead Boots (at 6pm) to repeat the Med glitch of yesterday armed with 3 ACM vouchers (2 from mate at work), and there were loads of £15 gifts sets and the rest of the Med range... but no soaps
.
On the up side though, I got 2 lots of Stay Dry Trial packs(49p) from Preston Fishergate and used the ACM voucher for 200 points(done in two transactions) so £3 profit for me!!!0 -
Went back to Parkgate Rotherham today, hoping they would have re-stocked the Med soaps. Nope, nothing! I came out empty handed after pondering on whether to get the UG shampoo & conditioner again and decided against it and OH is £50 worse off because we got a puncture on the way, so he is not a happy bunny today
I don't think I should mention Boots in this house for a while :eek: 0
