Yep, that works! And don't forgot a No7 gwp (men's or women's)! To go slightly cheaper, you could get two of the anti-aging face sunscreen spf50 at £10.50 (but BOGOF and the register will think you spent £21 for gift/coupon purposes - so you'll pay £5.50). Depending on who the gift is for and what you know they would use, though, the hair and lip thing makes a nice combo as you're giving more items and the containers are very pretty, lol. There was one other cheapie, but I don't recall what it was.

Tan maintainer @£10 each

Oh my god, it was adding the 500 points for premium beauty on for two purchases of diahorrea medicene! Plus the 200 points per £10 spent on healthcare! Shame they've only got one available to purchase now though, that is a serious glitch!

Edit: checked and it hasn't done it for any of the other medications unfortunately

lol must be because it starts with dior

Was in Boots yesterday and found Listerine mouthwash at Buy 2 for £5. This included the 'Total Care' one which sells at £4.19 in Boots (cheaper elsewhere but not as cheap as £2.50). A good bargain.

That must be good sally06 - the No7 SA recommended it to me :eek: :rotfl: She didn't say whether it was good enough to eat though but it gave me food for thought

Food for thought!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Who writes your script? :eek:

As for the other reps - I don't avoid them, they seem to avoid me But I suspect I know the reason why: I dress as comfortably as possible (scruffy but comfy lol) but even if I was to get togged up, they've put me off buying in Boots.

They seem to forget that people of a certain age i.e. me lol, have enough expendable income to buy their ranges and I think they misguidedly target the younger customers, who probably have less dosh. Silly really isn't it?

Maybe I should walk by with a wad of notes

I should stress that this only happens in one large but local store (just in case any Clinique/Clarin/Dior etc SA's are reading and think I'm on a downer with all of them.)

Thanks for raising this passion as I think you are spot on. :T :T I find that dependant on my style of dressing I am either welcomed or ignored. I too have a lot more disposable income than I have ever had in my life. After raising a large family, my money is now mine to spend as I wish. But the amount of cash I have stays the same whether I am dressing down or dressing up.

I also love to use it to my advantage. I stopped to look at and admire a beautful display of Narciso rodriguez yesterday. I asked the price and it was £108. The SA was lovely and very helpful, but I think she was surprised when I said I would take it. (will post photo later) Just goes to show we should never judge by appearances;)

I know exactly what you mean -- as I am usually in Boots after a hard day at the chalk face (i work with challenging primary kids) I am not dressed up and usually have paint on my hands. I too have less demand on my income and could buy most things in Boots without too much thought if I so wished.I really object to the snooty cosmetics reps calling me love in that patronising manner if I ask for a sample of something expensive ! Much prefer JL, at least you are treated well there.

Well, rant over !

bought the No7 body polish -- not impressed -my skin needs something a bit more heavy duty i think!

Hello

well i could not resist goingt to boots today even without my card

thankyou for the no7 buy 2 no7 hair spritz and lip stuff

i got the womens free gift

What do you think of this?

I noticed No 7 do sunglasses, so buying a pair of sunglasses and using the till slpit of half price you should get the free present if the glasses are over £20?That is my first glitch i have noticed woo woo

i am considering going to another boots store for the mens gift but i am not sure i want another 4 suncare itmes grrrr

Does anyone know where the boots designer glasses are kept are they on the sunglasses stands or behind counters or in optician stores as i nevr see any designer ones on the sunglasses stand.
I just got some polarised ones but am not sure i like them yet.

My son kept saying mum hurry up why are you reading everything ten times....lol

I got my first H and B mag as my other store never have them but i can't use my vouchers yet as replacement card has not come yet ...unless i ring customers services now do you think they would add them on?

Thanks everyone
