Oooh great spot :jBad luck on missing out on the .com delivery though hun.

These mirrors look great and have had good reviews from people on here. 1p short of the gwp though :mad: The eye pencils are sold out so a concealer/ eyeshadow brush now seems to be the cheapest thing to go with it to get the gwp :rolleyes: Not worth it just to get the gwp. Have not ever seen one of these in the flesh but will be keeping my eyes peeled

Couldn't you add this to make it upto £20(I'm sure someone said it was going through for 1p).:rotfl:

I tend to go to one of the SA that I know really well, with all the items and all the vouchers and just say that I want to put them through as seperate transactions. Much faster too.

I Did this with the last time delay, otherwise it was out of stock before I had finished shopping

Yes you're right, this makes far more sense and is upfront too. Would you use your Advantage card too then?
I don't know any SA's particularly well but I expect the cool lady (modelling the new rainbow eyeshadow which I complemented her on ) should recall me buying the GWP. She asked me if I knew the Tan Maintainers were BOGOF and I just said yes and smiled. Of course I didnt want four cos that would have actually cost me the £20! She was fine though and very pleasant so I think she will draw the short straw.
To my shame I have already made a little list of what I could buy...but it's a bit long! Are people restricting how many vouchers they print off at all? My OH doesn't believe it will work and I too got the :rolleyes: about the printing. :rotfl:

.com clicky

For those with the luxury of .com delivery

This was £19.99 in store today!

Wow. Thank you for confirming it is instore too. I'm sure there will be something reduced to get the GWP as well. A great item to buy for birthday / Christmas presents. Besides which I haven't set foot in boots for at least 2 days LOL

You may be able to get it instore and get the GWP without buying anything else.

I remember a few months ago, someone (can't remember who) complained that it was only a penny short and they allowed it go through. Worth trying anyway.:T

I got one last time, told the SA that I'd really like a GWP, and it was such a shame that the mirror was just 1p short. She said couldn't I buy something cheap to make it up.... I said there wasn't anything cheap(!), and nothing else I needed enough to justify..... it was only 1p short..... What a pity!
She called over to another SA, and asked her if she could possibly let the lady have a GWP with the mirror, as it was only 1p short of the required spend. Friendly, human SA's! One of my favourite Boots experiences, and they enjoyed it, too. I got my GWP (it didn't go on the receipt, though!).

Oh rude girl I was tempted to put some other names here for the finger but wont. As others will follow then we end up with RUDE chat and I will get into trouble again:eek: :eek:

Can't wait to make a trip to Boots now with the £5 No7 voucher ( polls thanks ever so much...don't need to look on ebay for PC ones now and no minimum spend !) I can see a fair few nail varnishes coming my way.

( Sam/nettienoo don't clear the shelves before I get there Friday )
( going to work gets sooo in the way of my shopping!!)

Hi Jellybaby I always use my advantage card, I have no reason not to. All the vouchers are valid and issued by Boots and small amounts of pts add up to big ones eventually.

Print out as many vouchers as you like and can afford to spend. You will kick yourself if you only take a few with you and then need more. If you take 10 and use only 5 there's no problem as you will have reserves.

Don't be nervous about using coupons, thats why Boots issue them, so enjoy the freebies/cheap products :T Don't worry the SA will soon get to know you :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

:hello: Evening all!


Well I could resist no longer and forced DH to drive me to Boots, him and DD don't mind, they usually get a McRubbish out of it :rotfl:

Anyway I found a few little reductions:
Elle Macpherson toned lotion 3.48 (was 6.95)
Elle Macpherson toned massager free (was 5.95) reduced to 2.48 but Elle stuff BOGOF)
Damask rose body mist 3.75 (was ?)
Sanctuary sento body cream 3.23 (was 6.45)
Sanctuary sun gradual tanner 3.98 (was ?)
Essential aromatherapy sleepeasy bathing bag 4.00 (was 8.00)
NC cupcake flannel 1.25 (was 2.49)
NC GWP free (glitch still ok )


I also had to use a couple of the £5 No7 vouchers - printed in black and white, SA didn't question them but obviously hadn't seen them before, they scanned no probs :T I got a stay perfect nail varnish in sunset for 1.25, and my long lusted after stay perfect eyeliner for 3.50 in this beautiful colour





The voucher scans strangely on the receipt, it just shows the item at the reduced price not a "was" and "now" price if that makes sense, so definitely hand this one over last so as not to affect total spends etc.

I was completely stupid and forgot to use my point vouchers from the GWP :mad: oh well I have got another 6 vouchers in my purse :T :rotfl:
