Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 27 - Post your finds here

Wrt the recall that people are currently going on about (sorry but i've only had chance to skip through posts) There is something to do with the ingredients and the packaging but the reason escapes me at the minute. This is NOT a public recall as there is no danger from any of the products affected. When a recall is issued to store, a till bar is automatically placed on that item to prevent further sales, just incase it was a safety recall. I know it affects about 40-50 lines across the store ranging from boots essentials to tb, t&g etc. The reason for this is that most of the designer brands are actually manufactured by boots, you can tell by looking at the address on the back, usually has a NG postcode. I shall try and get some more info and post back, but in the meantime, continue to use the products as normal, there is no danger (yet
)
HTH
Thanks Ken,:p knew you would come through for us :T :T :T Much appreciated~ What goes around comes around ~0 -
Just found out more info about the recall. They are having to change the packaging to account for a missing ingredient. The purpose of the ingredient is to make you go into your local store and say to the sa 'I love boots so much and all the lovely sa's that i feel you deserve a little something for putting up with us all off MSE' with that you will hand over your advantage card and the sa will delete all the points off it and hand it back. You will leace the store feeling a better person for what you have just done. Like I said before, there is NO need to worry
:eek: :eek: :eek: Thinks I will steer clear of TB from now on, don't like the sound of that ingredient.
I think the best one to put in the TB and all the products is the one that clouds the judgement of all SA's and makes them issue treble pts for every purchase. (I wish):rotfl: :rotfl:~ What goes around comes around ~0 -

mimi,
......................................
* Nail varnish starts at £6.25 so you could pick up one for £1.25!! Some really lovely colours there too. For £1.50 you could get one of the Colour Miracle nail varnishes which change colour if you add a coat of clear varnish.
..................................
.
I would hazard a guess that most people have picked up at least one or two nail varnishes with these vouchers (or 10) so if you're feeling nervous (especially after being turned away twice already) find a nail varnish you love and you will not have any problems getting that. You can't really go wrong with a decent nail varnish for £1.25 can you. :j
Edited to add, sorry moneysavingmumofone, Just spotted you have already answered mimi's Q, didn't see it the first time I read through! Now where's that glasses voucher. LOL
Thanks Jellybaby, great illustrated list :T :T :T
Re the nail varnishes I have bought 24 total :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: (not all for me) Great for fillers for those NC freebie bags:j :j~ What goes around comes around ~0 -

Could someone please help me out here. I have 3 of those £5 No 7 Voucher things. What can I get with them? I saw some Night Cream and tried buying that, but the woman at the till said it was not make up? Isn't cream meant to be make up? So I then went to the make up till and got some pink lip whatever it was, she said no to that too cos it was reduced. So what am I meant to get? Anyone got any ideas what actually qualifies? If so, please help moi out. Thanks.
If you want to spend even less than £1.25/£1.50 on a nail polish, the voucher also works on the No7 Eye Shadow Brush (in a long slim black box) making it just 75p to pay.

Edit: Sorry Jellybaby and others, am catching up with this thread back-to-front as usual and didn't realise Mimi's Q had been answered several times already) AND with pictures *goes off to hang head in shame*

Hi Hotpot I only pay 62p for the stay perfect nail varnish
+
85p for the colour miracle. I get 10% discount on all Boots products.
The great thing is the 10% is taken off the Full amount.
so £6.25 - 10% = £5.62 Less £5 voucher = 62p to pay.
I have bought loads of them too good an offer to miss at that price. :j :j~ What goes around comes around ~0
