    I bought this one today

    product_details.jsp?productid=1074382&classificationid=1040126

    for£3, hope this helps as this is my first ever post!

    Well, after 3 weeks without Bootsing (!!:eek:!!) I finally got a "fix" today, but these bags were full price in Glos! Makes no sense, does it!:confused:

    Hello - a fellow raider of Newcastle's Eldon Square Boots here!

    Sorry if I'm asking a v.stupid question or the answer's posted somewhere I haven't seen - but what's the deal with the expert tins? Is it the GWP shown at the beginning of this thread that you can get with any 2 expert products? If so, has anyone posted or could anyone quickly tell me what the cheapest things in that range are that allow you to get the GWP?

    Maybe see a couple of you in Boots tomorrow - I smell strongly of Soap and Glory orange shower gel!! xx
    Yes it's the GWP. The cheapest items seem to be the soap if you can find it, the lip protector, exfoliating mitts and razors. There's also a voucher in the ACM for £2 off the facial spritz bringing it down to £1.99.
    Expert skincare is also on 342 at the moment, I got a facial spritz and 2 lip protectors on 342 with GWP, though I think some stores won't allow the lip protector as skincare, sigh...

    Bunbun2, I just remembered, Eldon Square had a stand of old GWP's (from Olay and L'oreal I THINK), toiletry bags with some sample sizes in, they were free if you spent £20 on ANY skincare, I didn't bother though.

    Not to mention the mags that we recycle when we only want the back page :rotfl: It would make sense for Boots to go green and just print voucher leaflets.
