    I saw the RM GWP's but they had all been opened and messed up, shame as I really wanted one with some other RM makeup and till spit.
    Does anyone else notice that the RM counters are always a mess?
    Will not spend more money:naughty:, but will spend more time looking for that great bargain!:dance:

    i didn't mean that you was in the PC club just annoys me that others do and they haven't got kids its just that you mentioned that Boots monitor this site. People are bragging about it and it makes me mad coz we cud lose this if people misuse it.
    Sorry my post wasn't aimed at you i have taken your quote off.

    Saying you have a virtual baby is not the same has going into a store and walking off with something without paying for it. Sorry but there is a subtle difference.

    People who have virtual babies use the coupons and spend in store and use the coupons appropriately but still don't waltz off with items they haven't paid for. Most people on here who have virtual babies spend their coupons and voucher back in Boots ie Boots make money. Boots don't make money when people take items without paying for them. Other people have virtual babies and sell the coupons on Ebay which some of the posters on here buy and use. Again paid for not taken in an illegal way all above board and again Boots making from us.

    Point being we spend and make money for Boots and others take without spending.;)

    That would be buy 2 get 2 free rather than buy 1 get 2 free.

    I'm still struggling to get my head round this No 7 "3 for 2"/free concealer deal - every time I think I've got it sussed (thanks to some very helpful posts here!) I then manage to get myself all confused again. I'd like some more P&P (although I didn't get the last mailing - very disappointed, to put it politely! - so I haven't got the P&P points vouchers/money off lots of you lucky people have received) and I still have two 250 points No7 GWP vouchers which I'm struggling to use, but I really want to make sure I can do the right thing when I go back to Boots. It's making my head hurt (and I just read Orlaith's post which says you can't pay for prescriptions with points, which is a shame cos I'm spending a fortune on my migraine meds). Ho-hum!:confused:

    Speaking of this, on Friday I went around the 17 foundatins with a roll of cellotape and sealed up the foundations that hadn't been used and threw away the ones that had. Out of the 5 different foundation types on the stand I claimed for over £300 worth of used bottles and mineral compacts! I was absolutely disgusted as every type/colour had a tester in front of the display. I cannot believe how destructive people are! :mad:

    Spoke to the SA who looks after R & M , Urban Retreat and a couple of other smaller brands.She showed me how all the pallettes on the stand had been opened and tried.Also the foundations and lip glosses had also been tried.She said she is only part time so can't keep an eye on it all the time . She said the GWP ends today and looked in her book and none of her brands have a GWP in the next few months.I think her info went up to end of June.
    i decided not to but as the stuff looked used and to be honest put me off!

    Just realised when I got back to car that the albums should have been BOGOF:mad:

    Hi dotchas,

    Don't worry, you're weren't "done" on the photo albums, I was told today that the mini ones aren't part of the BOGOF offer :)

    I would just like to add in my own defence that I have spent loads of money in boots and did not just walk off with unpaid goods, it seems that its ok for some people to get the GWP free and not get slated at all but because I posted a bit too much detail I did. I have said my sorrys to all concerned and would like to bury this matter for good now as we are all friendly on here and I and Im sure other people do not want this ruined over some posts.

    I hope no one takes any offence from anything I have said.

    Rant over!
    Will not spend more money:naughty:, but will spend more time looking for that great bargain!:dance:

    I've just been browsing some of the listings on Fleabay for Boots vouchers and there's a few of them on there ;)

    I too find the foundation too orange for my skin tone and I'm not quite sure how the brush applicator would work?! I had the same problem with the 17 mineral foundation with the orangeness and this was the 'soft ivory' shade!

    Just trying to read back (and failing lol) but check Samuk's posts - I'm sure Sam had it sussed :confused: Or someone lol. It needs a voucher for the line thingy doesn't it? (Can you tell I've never worked with cosmetics? ;))

    Oops - sorry Sam, we posted at the same time lol Didn't realise you were posting ;) Did you work it out?
