    Good Bootsing for me today, got:-
    No7 Eyeshadow used email £5 off and got 250 gwp points voucher points
    3 4 £3 custards (£1.53)
    Botanics bathing 3 tub (salts, butter, scrub) £3.75 used £1 off PC and triple acm points (£2.75)
    free organics baby jar

    Wanted TS combo but none in small store and still need [strike]want[/strike] some more No7 so i'll be returning tomorrow :D



    I forgot to use the triple points voucher on the Botanics. Infact I forgot to use loads of vouchers including 200 pts on No7. I got in such a pickle with that mini photo album I keep them in they fell out all over the place and into my shopping bags. I gave up in the end lol

    Does anyone know if the voucher for a Boots eye test covers getting an exam to get contact lenses? I just sent my poor hubby to D&A with a voucher for a free exam, and he said they did a long, thorough exam -- only to tell him it would be another £40 if he wanted an exam to get a prescription for contacts! :eek: At least he didn't get it right then and I still have time to find a better deal. Then I made the poor man go to M&S with me because ready meals are on sale (1/3 off all, even ones already on sale), and he *hates* being in crowded grocery store.

    On the bright side, I did some super-duper Bootsing while he got an eye exam, and I'll post some highlights and a pic soon. :)

    What about:-

    Little + Large
    Cannon + Ball
    Johnny + Fanny - Don't mention the donuts :eek:

    But I know exactly what you mean Hogshead these 2 lovely ladies are as generous as the day is long. There is both overt + covert generosity on this board. So much happens behind the scenes with them and many others:cool:

    So it's hats off from me to Rubes & Passion and all the other generous people for your undercover work.

    :T :T :T



    aawww thanks for your nice comment hun xx

    Found some great deals today! Here we go:

    -Botanics Bathroom Bliss set X 2: £3.75 minus £1 PC vouchers for Botanics Bathing = £2.75 each
    -Essential aromatherapy sleep easy hand cream 75ml: 50p
    -Amazon passion flower hand cream 250 ml X 2: 75p each
    -NC lip gloss trio: £2.13
    -NC apple sponge/polisher: 63p
    -NC bath cream: 50p
    -NC samphire and sea minerals body cream: 88p
    -Elle toned shower scrub: £1.49
    -Elle Toned massager: free (BOGOF)
    -SD card, 256MB: £4.25 (500 points back from ACM)
    -No7 Blush Brush: £3 (after coupon)
    -No7 lip brush: £2.50 (after coupon)
    -No7 speed dry polish: £1.25

    Not bad! I spent about £16 cash and got more than 500 points back, and spent 622 points in another transaction. My husband caught up with me before I checked out the second time and I showed him the Botanics stuff and asked if I should get another, as I don't really know what I'll do with even one (it will go in a general gift pile waiting for Christmas). He said that's a good deal, get it! I'm converting him, lol! I will note the boxes are pretty banged up on all the Botanics sets, but it's easy enough to put them in a gift bag.

    For the first time today I got certain 'looks' for using the £5 No7 voucher. The SA had never seen them before and literally 'tutted' when I said I wanted to do seperate transactions for each item. I had 10 nail varnishes in my basket but because of how uncomfortable the SA made me feel only bought 3 ........................ she made me feel like I was doing something wrong ....................... really upset me.

    I'm just glad I got a nice SA last week (in different branch) who was only too happy to put through 10 nail varnishes as seperate transactions, but its wrong how SA treat you. Rant over

    I never use the no7 tills because they look down on 16 year old me. I just self serve then i can put through what I want when i want
    :whistle:'I'm not a girl, not yet a woman!' :whistle:
    Finished my exams now! YAY!
