great shop:T

I did more or less the same as you this morning except I only bought one men's no7, didn't get a GWP and got no NC (apart from that it was similar:rotfl: ) but used exactly the same vouchers. the SA put all my vouchers through and then went back to manually put through the ones that beeped.
well done for standing your ground:D

Ok, let's see if I can get this right. Had a lot of vouchers today and got in a bit of a flap trying to use the right ones for the right shop IYKWIM. When I used the printed £5, SA was impressed and wondered where it came from :cool: . Finally found some reduced frames to use the 200pts from ACM, had already swapped 250pts from PC . Here's what I got:

Shop 1:
2x silver frame 3.5x5 was £5 now £1.50 bogof
Olay handcream £4.97
reduced Pantene cond £0.74

Handed over:

600pts wyb Olay
£5 off Olay

Shop 2:
Fuji Pink Glam Cam reduced to £2

Shop 4:

And then another polish just by itself for £1.25 with printed voucher which scanned nicely for me today.

Phew, did I do well? Now let's see how many pages I have missed today...

Hi

Central 6 is rubbish for bargains, no clearance stands at all

The Precinct has 3 decent clearance stands though, 1 on the right by the make up counters, 1 at the back by the electricals and 1 downstairs by the baby section Plenty of reduced Ted Baker (mens and womens), No7 cellulite stuff and Hackett for men. Er.... what else? Oh yes, a few reduced NC bits and plenty of the NC GWP. Also quite a lot of reduced Sanctury too. No reduced S&G though and no Med GWP either.

HTH

Ps. the SA at the back till on the first floor (by the electricals) is lovely, she'll try ANY combination of vouchers for you and will input them manually if you get the dreaded beep. She's fab

Thanks for that

I tend to go to the ricoh boots the most though (I havent been to the one in town for years) due to it being the nearest.. I dont know why but they put the clearence stand right at the back on the right, not a great selection though as its only one stand. The other day there was the med GWP you could buy at £5 :eek: which seems quite high as you can get it for free :rolleyes:
Anyway, thanks again

There are med GWP's in the high street store but none in the retail park. I have managed to resist the green this time!

Sorry to be a pain but are the pregnancy body butters there too & are the GWP on the shelf or stashed away behind the tills?

Does anyone know if the NC bag goes through free with the 99p sachets of hair and face masks??
Thanks

Ah sorry, I forgot about the Richo because I never go to that one. Maybe I should though, for a bit of variety :rotfl: The Precinct SAs are starting to wave at me when I come in now, a sign perhaps that I'm going too often?

GWP's are on usual stand downstairs by the SS tills (not behind any tills!) and the preg butters are upstairs by ammongst the baby stuff. .....and the clearance is upstairs through the baby stuff and down the few steps on the left!
