Just reporting back from a Bootsing sesh in Oxford, city centre.
No reduced S&G :eek: Although there was only one jam sessions left should have got it price checked but it was v busy and then I forgot

Sanctuary- only 2 items in the Lomi Lomi range were reduced, and then only by about £1- pot of body lotion down from £9.99 to £8.99, and a body oil was also reduced by a similar amount.

Natural collection- 2 products in the whole range were reduced- a box of 3 lip glosses was down from £8.99 to £6.38ish, and a blue zip up bag with 3 mini ice products was £2 instead of £4.

Elle-the two large brown pots of shimmer cream and sparke dust were about £4.99- still v pricey in my opinion so left them on the shelf lol.

Rather disappointing! Checked my mum's card and she had a voucher for a free time delay face mask and 100 points on any time delay . She'll be v chuffed with that, though I do feel slightly offended that neither me nor my sister got any freebies!
Got the John Frieda glaze which is half price at £3.49 :j Love that stuff!

Noticed a sign saying the No 7 Liplicious Lip Gloss is half price- don't know if this is in all branches- it was £4.xx instead of £8.75.


Anyone brave enough to see if this counts as £8.75 towards the gwp (SK are you reading this )

So would need another £10.25 to make up the total to £20 (maybe 2 x glossy locks??). Thinking caps on please glitch godesses

Even if it doesn't it would still be a good price with the points voucher from the gwp.

Anyways hope that saves anyone hoping for loads of S&G and Sanctuary bargains in Oxford today a wasted journey!

Thanks for that, hope its that price in uxbridge. i love this lipgloss, its VERY sticky but looks nice and tastes and smells good enough to eat:D
And id use a 250 points coupon so would be a great deal:D
Doubt it would count as £8.75 towards the gwp as wouldnt it ring up as the half price unlike bogofs that only ring up after the tills been 'totalled'?
p.s just want to check, will my £5 off no 7 voucher still work once the tills been totalled and ive actually spent less than £20 on no 7? If i could get a quick answer that'd be great as im off to my mums in 5 mins and wont be online til after my boots trip!

Hi MSMOO,

Others have used the £5 off wys £20 on No 7 on the suncare glitch- it seems as long as the total before bogof's kick in is £20 or over then the voucher works.
Lots of luck & happy Bootsing- I hope your branch has the reduced lipgloss for you x

I just noticed that when you click on the Washing & Bathing section on the No7 range on the website the Protect & Perfect body serum comes up. I'm wondering if you could use the ACM No7 washing & bathing 350 points voucher on it? In theory if you bought 2 at £12.50 each you could also use the 500 points on any 2 P&P items (from the mailing) and the 350 points on No7 washing & bathing so £25 with GWP and 850 points?

Just thought you would all love to know that , as usual, Peterborough has none of the reduced items mentioned on here. I spent 30 mins wandering around the store and found nothing ! The clearance (joke) consists of products that should be binned - missing tops, used products, half empty, sticky yucky stuff!!!!!!
did get some half price sunglasses -needed polarised ones for wearing on my boat so saved £15 on those but then spent the saving on
TS shampoo
TS long hair mask
Model me shampoo
model me paste
botanics hair mask ( not on 2 for £5 anywhere in my store!)

used 250 points on mask
200 points wys £25
TS ACM voucher
model me ACM voucher

Both of the freebie vouchers had to be put through manually -- they would not scan and the only way to do it was to void the item and put through as zero.
The SA said the tills had been adjusted because some peoples stuff had gone through free with another voucher ???????? She checked the wording on the vouchers twice and would not let the 2 4 £9 discount come off either.
Can only think that they are trying to stop us using two vouchers which let both products go through free ( and I did not have that voucher !)
I feel a bit let down as my store never has good reductions and the SA's seem to be 'glitch aware' even at the normal tills.

Ditto on the Welwyn Garden City store and London Colney! Also none of The ACM are working.

Just wanted to post to say thank you for the No7 glitch. I did have 1 PC coupon left and wanted something for my sister (whose having a really bad time with her pregnancy and wanted some No7 suncare). THANKS. :A

Great idea,:idea: if it works. :T :T

I was told instore that the washing/bathing is only the range in the peach packaging.

But it all depends what the till recognises as washing/bathing, not the SA (Except if s/he is No 7 expert). If it's programmed in online as W/B it might just be the same instore. SK are you there please? :idea:
