Don't take that the wrong way ladies :rotfl: I have not been too well and am falling asleep all the time throughout the day, have some more tests monday and doctors tues pm, but i am feeling a bit better today!

Its tempting to get the no7 sunstuff but i still have enough for 10 years from the 641 lol

i used more points today and got a mixture of mens brands on the 342, clearance was pants though they had no gwps for anything!! not even no7!! terrible i did moan lol

You saying our endless inane drivel is mind numbing!? :rotfl:

Hope your tests and GP visit go well and they manage to sort you out.

i'm guessing it might be to do with my throids(sp) i have a swollen armpit as well, but that could be down to excessive boots shopping lol

Hi Iiee,
Great to see another Oxford Bootser on the boards :j Feel free to give me a shout if I can ever be of any help

The city centre store had the med GWP's on Friday. They were on the shelf with the normal med range- next to Ted Baker & FCUK. There were no signs saying it was a GWP though- just recognised it from seeing it in Watford. If I didn't know what it looked liked I wouldn't have known it was a gwp! :rolleyes:
They seem to have changed the photo 200 points ACM voucher. The first time I used it on a pair of reduced frames, it scanned fine- no probs. SA was not impressed as the frames were only £1.75 . At the time, the reductions were on the sel, so she had just scanned the normal barcode. Following that, the put reduced stickers on the clearance photo things, which seemed to make the voucher beep :rolleyes: I wouldn't be surprised if this was done on purpose to stop us using the points voucher!
You must have been v unlucky with the NC gwp's- they have had loads all week! I didn't think any local Bootsers had been in as the shelves seemed untouched!
Reductions are always bad in the Oxford city centre store- they hardly ever reduce anything, and even when they do it is only by a small amount.
I would love some cheapish S&G for my xmas hampers but they're still charging full wack on the lot!
They did have the NAKED face masks reduced though. I used one the other day and it smells gorgeous! I was just trying to sniff my face the whole time it was on lolol and it made me rather hungry It didn't really do much to my skin, though it didn't make it tight which is what the mud masks always do.

I had a pretty rubbish day today... Oxford city centre store is poo for getting offers!!

* Sanctuary, Ted Baker, NC stuff not reduced anywhere in store.
* Whole stand and another shelf where NC GWPs were supposed to be had both been cleared by the gannets already.
* No Med GWPs anywhere (I know someone - tiara? said they had them in Oxford but I couldn't find them)
* Got Botanics shampoo + 3 min hair mask and the ACM 250pts voucher beeped and had to be added manually
* ACM voucher on the mini photo thingy beeped too.

Plus the ACMs won't give me 75pts wys £10 any more :mad: I only get 250pts wys £30, which I didn't really want to do.

Has anyone had the ACM voucher for Umberto Giannini? I was hoping to get this and use with the express voucher, but it wasn't there. EDIT: Just saw boo_2112's post!

Last wednesday at Gatick airport I spent 10.58 of which 5 was a t-mobile top-up. However I did not get a voucher for fragrance.
- is it for a 10 spend?
- is it a till spit? or a voucher?
- should I call CS and complain?

Hmmm, I reckon that your mobile top up didn't count towards the £10 in the same way that baby milks and stamps don't so I would be surprised if you get a result out of CS. I was frantically buying tubs of baby milk earlier in the year to get the £5 off No7 vouchers and discovered that it didn't qualify for the voucher and I didn't get points either. DS was upgraded to follow on milk at six months as you do get points for that!

I forgot to say - aswell as my ACM voucher for the FREE:j Time Delay firming face mask (currently 4.49) I also had an ACM voucher to get 250pts when you sign up to Boots Prescription Collection service. You don't need a prescription to claim the points.:j Anyone else seen this?

I did myself a french manicure using Bourjois white nail tip varnish and their So laque pale pink that I raved about a couple of threads back.(when the Boujois till spit was out)

It was a bit tricky getting the white tips,it comes with a special brush which worked when doing my left hand but was trickier on the right, I ended up using the sticky guides out another set but it looked fantastic and lasted a whole week

Hi I didn't know you could get such a thing as sticky guides

I love a french manicure and always have my toes done with it (have an express pedicure when I get my legs waxed) but I just make a mess on my own hands. Asked in a smallish Boots if No7 did a white nail pen to try but was told no but Rimmel might - checked on .com and the only one that popped up was YSL :rolleyes:

However if these sticky things are good......

are they reusable?

i bought the rimmel pencil a few days ago as it was the only one i could see in my local and it is really good, much better than polishes imho

hope this helps

Ah a potential minefield, getting treatment for thyroid disorders. Hope you have more luck than me. I would recommend doing a little research yourself as a lot of GP's don't actually understand what the lab's are looking for or indeed the significance of the result levels.
Crossing my fingers that your tests come back and tell you it is indeed too much shopping!

(Sorry Im off topic again - Im becoming a serial offender. but on topic Im hoping to go Bootsing tomorrow. LOL)

I am still on page 31. :eek: :eek: but posting anyway, I may just catch up with own message by tomorrow. :rolleyes:

Spent 16 £5 vouchers, (14 of them yesterday.)

Bought 16 nail vanishes Total cost to me = £11.76 total value = £102

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Stay perfect cost me 65p

Colour Miracle cost me 85p

And I must compliment the SA's they were all brilliant and friendly about the vouchers. All scanned without any problems. I havent changed the size or anything, kept it totally original.

Irrelevant Chat:-
Went to see Neil Diamond last night :heartpuls :heartpuls Thanks SK you are a star :dance:

ooh, I hope I get a 250 points UG voucher from ACM:Dmind you, I'd better not hold my breath. I'm still waiting for a free TD voucher:rolleyes:

I must be the only bootser in the entire country who has not used the 5.00 e-mail voucher...i'm letting the side down;)

keep the shopping lists coming guys:D I love reading them. I've not spent any money in boots for quite a few days. I'm trying (very hard) to be good by not buying stuff I don't need...won't last for long though.

Me too Sally. No TD freebie, and no UG voucher
I did get a Med voucher the other day for a Free bath cream, but there was none in stock.

But yesterday I got a voucher to get the same product for £1 instead of £2 and guess what, they were in stock!! Surprise surprise!!:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

What I want now is some offer on the TS range, I am getting low on that and it's my favorite :j :j
