Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 24 - Post your finds here

Petlamb

Well, for donkeys years now i've been using an AC which is actually my mum's (she's generally with me, though not always) as I use it more than she does, so she's happy for me to hold on to it...

anyway, i thought - im not going to live at home forever, and also ive heard some tales on here of people being asked if theyre using someone else's card so i applied for my own the other day and it arrived today... my mum gets to reclaim hers but is cool with me using the points at a later date (i dont like spending points, always feels like ive raided my savings... lol)

and i have a new, point-less (not pointless lol) card... though i do now have a double points x2 transactions coupon till 6th June (oh, just thought, thats the date i go on my hols!)... I feel a bootsing episode (or several) coming on. Definately going to grab some Natural Collection stuff while the offer is on - need to find out what time my local is open til, but i think i might get into town on friday too to visit several boots! God, this must be what obsession looks like.

I've been reading up on Time Delay products after the till spit madness and I have to say, it doesn't sound good... I'm a subscriber to Beautypedia, a fantastic site with thousands of product reviews across almost all brands. The woman who runs it has spent years researching ingredients, and gives reviews from 1st hand experience and based on the ingredients. It's great for wading through all the, ahem, exaggerated claims from the manufacturers! Anyway, it's an american site but she's done a lot of 'Time Dimensions' reviews, but the lip plumper has been given a 'poor' rating:

"Time Dimensions Instant Lip Plumper is perhaps the most irritating lip plumper being sold today. Most such products contain one or two irritants that cause lips to swell slightly by virtue of irritation. Boots uses menthol (a lot of it), spearmint oil, eugenol, clove oil, pepper extract, methyl eugenol, and cinnamon. All I can say, besides "buyer beware", is “Ouch!” And Boots calls this product a “special treat”!?"

So, potential buyers, maybe watch out... Incidentally, the 'Conditioning Cleansing Cream' was given her highest rating, and the exfoliator and wipes were given a 'good' rating. All the other products (10 others) were given 'average' or 'poor' ratings. I know it's free, but is it worth it? Anyway, hope that helps someone

In my local the half price baby expert has to be over ridden by the SA. Not sure what happens with other stores.

Don't forget there is 100pts baby expert on acm too

Baby expert wipes were BOGOF at £2.39, but as tommorow is change over wednesday and there were no signs up at close tonight, it may have finished, not sure on the offer date?

Well if in doubt of coupons etc just go with Broclo, she deserves a MEDAL!!!

First stop was baby dept, not much happening in there.........and then we walked over to the cameras and printers etc and what was winking at me........the one and only Printer .....won't go into too much detail!!! But it worked with a little persuasion from Broclo:j :j :j

Broclo was a star and threw her shopping into my basket to hide things so I made sure all points received were given to her though, no way was i taking cash and keeping the points, thats just naughty!!!

But OMG just opened the black sack, you are one naughty naughty girl:A
I owe you BIG time!!!!

So funny true MSE style in ha ha too, got free drinks........we'll have to try that one again lol!!!!

hmm, is it a sign that im a bit of a masochist that I want to try the lip plumper now...?

my prev gloss was DuWop Lip Venom though - which most people say gives them lips that really sting, mine just tingled a little at first...
