really like the 8hr stuff now but think itll be an occassional treat.

The 8hr cream is great if you have a cut or burn yourself, I keep a little pot in my bag. Its soothing and helps things heal quicker.

Just looking through my ACM vouchers and found one for "Half price WYB any product from the Botanics Facial skincare range. 1 coupon can be used in conjunction with the 3for2 instore skincare promotion."
It doesn't say that minis or giftsets are excluded, so do you girls think this would work:

Botanics Weekend Essentials £7.50 (was 15)
Botanics Facial Treats Kit £8
Botanics Sensitive Skin Recovery Serum £5.99

3for2 would take off the serum (cheapest item), ACM voucher would reduce price of facial treats kit to £4 and the weekend essentials kit is already a nice price. Total to pay would be £11.50.

:j :j :j

On second thoughts it probably wouldn't work, just noticed that the 3for2 instore is for facial skincare and that doesn't seem to include giftsets

I am not a fan of paying for a reusable bag to advertise a supermarket. So you may want some of these for your bountiful Boots Hauls. And if you dare moan...that they are not manly...like the first response I got... I'll come wack you with a save a 1/3 Brolly!

Just an update on my complaint to customer service, I got a nice letter from them, with an apology. They refunded the delivery charge on my .com order, and gave me 2000 points on my card. I e-mailed them and the reply said there were 'discrepancies' in what I told them and what the SA's said, and a comment that I had predicted this online!! Hello Mr. Smith. It was also said that they had taken into account what I had written on line. Two references to this site, as it is the only place I have written anything. I have contacted Trading Standards, so will keep you updated.

Forgot to say, yesterday Boots in Walsall had loads of Once sun cream for 50p, excellent buy as it is normally £13. Great for the kids as you only put it on once and it lasts 6 hours. Factor 15, 30, and 40. Also Med. range was reduced to £1 each. Better clearance in the Sadler centre than the main shop. Loads of mags in both shops, but only the Sadler one had the two free samples inside. Strange isn't it?

Interesting rosy, but only have time to press the thanks button for now (and type this ) but really glad that they've at least done some small thing for now - not enough in my eyes though.

I'll try replying properly later, I'm off to Boots - I hope!
