    pmsl...I am contemplating calling CS at 830 to check as it will involve changing whole day to get to boots, but promised a friend I'd pick one up for her poorly nana. Can't belive I forgot to get one yesterday :o

    If you do call, can you find out what can be done for people who were looking for the med gwps but never found any in store? Surely there must be some kind of raincheck, otherwise they are making a false offer?

    am soooo jealous - my local boots has no natural collection gwp.

    thinking of venturing to other boots to find it - does anyone know when the offer finishes??

    also has anyone used the helena movement balm from model me - want to know if it is any good before i get it. i really dont need another product i will only use once!!

    My store had 2 nc bags left yesterday but I was too chicken to buy them as "the dragon" was on the till. She scrutinises everything. Will have another look today and hope someone else is on the till and they are still there !

    Just going through my stash and having a sort out - found two time delay cleansing balm unused - & one used but i had allergic reaction to it which is why never used the others. On the side of the box it says
    Guarantee" if u r not totally happy with this product u can return it for a full refund."
    However i have no receipt and ive noticed the bar code has a penned cross on it - so i must have got it reduced from boots hence buying 3.
    Does anyone know would I be able to take it back - i dont mind a swap for hand stuff rather than money back - how would they know how much to give back anyway ?
    What would be the best thing to say seems a shame not to use it - but a good lesson not to buy things cos their reduced.! ( will we ever learn)
    Not sure if this has been answered already (I'm catching up after a few days off the thread due to my viva).

    If you don't have a receipt they will only give you the current price back, and Time Delay is currently reduced due to the repackage.

    Phone CS first and get a reference number, as the SAs in store don't like giving you a refund when you don't have a receipt, even though they should if you've had a reaction to a product.

    Not nonsense broclo drivel so read this lmao

    Argh, knew it was change over day! :eek: OK...

    All plans change today, therefore last day of taking advantage of shampoo glitches, nc, s&g and med gwp, so unless the bomb is dropped, get your booty's to Boots! :dance:

    Spoke to Mr Marchant of Boots CS(AKA the Big Dude) as requested(I swear he will get a restraining order!). :rotfl:

    Sir says...

    If you can not get a GWP, then you can get an SA to sign the reciept to say not recieved and you can pick one up from the store during the promotional time.:j

    If it goes past the promotional time, tough lucky.:mad:

    [strike]Argued[/strike] Asked what happened if the next day 30 million previous GWP's mysteriously appeared for SALE despite not having the day before when promotion was on. Sir glossed over this and basically said nnooooo :rolleyes:

    Asked about the official policy on till spit redemption when no stock to redeem with, yet signs covering all of their windows and in in-store signage etc. This was followed by lots of flustered sounds, and an unhelpful answer.:rotfl:

    So seems only thing Boots will 'officialy do' is to allow you do get a gwp at a latter date if the item is availible within the promotional period. I've posted before that I have had other experiences of [strike]being a cow bag[/strike] asking nicely for them to fufill the offers etc, so it is possible if you are[strike] a cow bag [/strike]lucky!

    Cheap combos are
    2 x tan maintainer@£10 each bogof
    gwp
    after voucher £5 to pay, 200 points with mag voucher

    2 x glossy locks
    2x lip screen bogof (or 4 glossy locks, 3 lip screns and a glossy locks whatever combination lol)
    gwp
    after voucher £6.50 to pay and 200 points with mag voucher

    Or I got 1 x lash extensions £10, 1 glossy locks @ £5.75 and 1 lip screen @ £5.75 Total to pay after £5 voucher was £10.25. If you buy cosmetics you can use any no 7 cosmetics coupons you have (from mailing or gwp) or if you buy something from washing and bathing you may be given a 300/350 point coupon from acm x[/quote

    Hi all

    Sorry if this has been repeated. If I buy say 2 NO7 tan maintainers or any other No7 item that is £10 and bog off, do I only need to buy one item at £10 to get the GWP?

    My apologies girls if you have all been asked this hundreds of times!!!:A:A
