    If you have a partner ( never assume anything, nowt as queer as folk they say ) have him/her join up too as you are both entitled despite it being the same children in question. You don't put any names on the form, do it online whilst you remember.

    Welcome too.

    The email £5 voucher is only for No 7 make-up.

    Just a heads-up to the user whose daughter has a prom coming up, if you could time it right the girls at the No 7 counter will do her make up for her using all their products and they will give you list of what they used and of course you can pick which colours etc.

    Glad mentioned her daughter had it done for her prom and her store took a £10 deposit which made me book one for my daughter but my local store only took a £5 deposit or they would have but the girl couldn't find it on the till. They then put the £5/10 towards any purchases you make of the products so in fact as she couldn't take my £5 my daughter could have had her make done and we could have walked away without buying anything.

    The assistant we had was excellent and very friendly and chatty with my daughter. I went through the list after and bought a few things, sadly before this £5 voucher off but she did give us both the free gift bag.

    So it was all worth it :D
    Good shops hun...meant to post before re your shopping experience today !!

    Anyway I have been on the brunt of a really horrid SA too..so I know exactly how you must have felt.

    I too stood my ground although I was bright red with embarrassment at being spoken to like a child and shaking ..however I stood my ground and just kept asking her to try vouchers for me... they all worked much to her annoyance!

    I am just glad that it was a store I rarely visit, however a picture of her face is firmly etched in my mind so if she committed a crime and appared on crimewatch I'd be able to shop her;)

    I managed to use the £5 off voucher on No7 tinted moisturiser. The SA said she couldnt put the voucher through as had been told not to accept them by someone instore but then the manager came over and said it would be ok to use, she said boots were doing a trial to see how popular these vouchers are for future offers! Something about going over to email vouchers for the future! This would be amazing as we could all use as many as we like!!!

    Anyway shop was all fine and also bought the S&G Fill monty with points and got the GWP also bought 2 packs of Tommee Tippee soothers reduced to 75p (for my nappy cake)
    Will not spend more money:naughty:, but will spend more time looking for that great bargain!:dance:
