In order to copy I cannot right click on my mouse ( like I can in word docs) i have to use the copy icon on my browser bar which is like two pages on top of each other on an angle a bit like this ( sorry best pic I could find) si i highlight text and then use the copy icon, you should aslso have a paste one looks a bit like a clipboard.

Soz my instructions were rubbish !

( thanks sk perhaps your will be more understandable!)

When you have the text you want selected try using the key-combination : Ctrl + C and when you paste it use Ctrl + V
- (you hold the Ctrl key and C in the same time)

Hi Everyone,

Just been into our small Boots at Herne Bay, Managed to get the Soap & Glory 'Sexy Mother Pucker 3 pack' for £8.75 reduced from £17.50 used my points:eek: :eek: :eek: . There were a few more S & G reduced to half price. Also notice other stuff reduced on the SEL so worth a wonder round!
Also popped into Whincheap Boots, Managed to get some Elle Mcpherson Pedicure sets (Really gorgous stuff) inc large tub of foot cream & a pair of cotton socks, £9.9? reduced to £4.98 & on Bogof :j :j :j They also had loads of hair colours reduced to £2 as well as mens Hackets & Ted Baker. Also picked up 3 x TB mini aftershaves marked down to £1.50 each & went through on 342 & a Ruby Wax Wash bag with 2 x makeup bags inside for £2 so well pleased.

I found that disappointing - obviously the voucher needs taking out - it's not a long dated one either :rolleyes:

Now box is useless as a gift :mad:

I'd forgotten about the voucher but it does make it look as if the box has been opened and rifled through doesn't it? Pretty disappointing really, especially as I'll now have to rifle through it for the voucher

I'm not on this board very often but just to say...

I've just come back from Boots & WAS given triple points on a mobile top-up.

Also, bought 2 of the Botanics 3 minute deep conditioning hair masks (£4.99 each). Got both for £5.00 on the offer & also used the 250 acm points (which beeped but the SA added manually). Quite pleased with that.

Thank you. I obviousloy must have thrown them away (obviously didnt know any better til I found this site) as my son is 4 months old now and the vouchers I get dont seem that great. Can I say im pregnant again and add a virtual baby??

Or you could buy them on ebay. That way you know what you're getting, and although yes, you do have to pay as opposed to getting them free, but it's not much and then at least boots can't say anything about you having a 'virtual' baby :rolleyes: Also you'll get a much better choice than the ones boots sends you.

You can get some fantastic bargains on there, for example about 3 days ago I won an auction for a printer voucher, £5 off olay, 500 points on olay, 250 points on frames/albums and £5 off No7 (along with the obvious baby stuff as well) ... but the best bit is that I won it for around £5!! I had a snipe (site which puts an automatic bid in for you 8 seconds before the auction end) for £18 (i.e. that's how much I would have paid!)

The most obvious one to me is Vaseline but if you prefer something more natural you could try Burts Bees. HTH

Burt's bees frequently uses irritating plant oils and misses out vital ingredients which are good for your skin because they are not 'natural' :rolleyes: enough. Not recommended.

Does anyone know if I can use the £2 off Max Factor cosmetics and 200 adv points WYB max factor masterpiece mascara? A very kind bootser sent me some vouchers and I want to make the most of them.

Hi Skittifer,
Cymex is the most amazing lip product I have ever used. It's a cream you can use day or night, but night is better as it stays on your lips longer when you're not eating/drinking/talking etc!
You only need the tiniest amount and it completely transforms dry, cracked, sore lips. Really can't recommend it highly enough & it's only £2.45! It used to be over the counter but I havent bought it for a while (it really does last for ages lol) so it might now be on the shelf.


Boots expert lip protector is also worth a mention.


It is a cheaper version (£1.59) and is a good basic product- if the 100 points with 1/3 off was still on I would suggest you try it, but at full wack I would personally pay the little bit extra and go for Cymex.

HTH.

:T That's a brill total Boo! How many vouchers do you think you've used? It's my first quarter doing this Tesco lark, I've done 10k, not too bad for a newbie? What are you saving for? Nosey moi?


Trying to stay on topic a bit, can anyone recommend a good lip treatment? not a normal lip balm (I don't think anything beats my Rose & co rose salve) but a really hydrating one that you wear overnight, my lips get so dry and cracked.
