  • Does anyone else break into a fast sprint/walk/trot/waddle as they approach a Boots store :D You know, that sense of anticipation spurring you on :rotfl:

    Could hardly move in our bedroom for make up piled up around the place yesterday, so I sorted it all out. We have a king sized bed and laid out, my collection took up nearly the whole bed. Did take a photo which I'll try and remember to post later. Was somewhat shocked to realise that I have over 80 lipsticks and lip glosses, over 60 eyeshadows, and about 20 eyeliners :D And yes, I do wear it all, it just takes me a long time to get through them all!

    In the end I use 9 £5 vouchers, saving £45. Gave four to daughter of someone I work with - she's got her school leaving prom soon so treated herself to some nice makeup for that :) Tis nice to share the Boots lurrrrve :smileyhea

    Omg I totally agree! I went to a retail park looking for a Cardi and I couldn't look around the other shops through anticipation that a big boots was near!
    Furthermore, my little sister suggested we go to superdrug the other day and I replied with 'but that's like betraying boots!'
    and when my dad said use 2000 points and I will give you a tenner in exchange I 'joked' 'no cus then my ac will not give me decent ATM vouchers!!!'

    Hehe I'm crazy!

    I'm off to do my business exam!
    :whistle:'I'm not a girl, not yet a woman!' :whistle:
    Finished my exams now! YAY!

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    I got 2 men's No7 hair and body wash(in separate transactions) today and with each used £3 voucher from paper and 350 points. The points had to be added manually and SA couldn't do it so called over a manager who took them away and added them no problem:D there was only one till open and a huge queue building up whilst she went to look for the manager - I didn't dare look behind me:rotfl:

    Oh it's great to know this actually works! I was wondering if the 'not to be used with any other coupon blah de blah' LOL was going to stop us. :rotfl:
    Thanks for the confirmation bunbun2 :j




    :D:D Good luck with your exam lilflower! :D:D

    The Med gwps are all gone at the Oracle, for those who were going to stop by. They could restock by tomorrow, though.

    I saw a magazine ad for a new MF GWP to be at Boots from 18 June to 12 August. The ad calls it "Bronze Ambition" -- it's in a hot pink, flowered bag (or is it red, can't say for certain from the pic) and has bronzing powder and brush, silk gloss lip gloss, trial size Pantene shampoo and conditioner and Olay Total Effects Touch of Sunshine with spf15.

    You get it with an £18 spend on Max Factor. If the 1000 points for a £20 spend on MF doesn't end by Wednesday, the two deals could be combined. :)

    This link should work to the pic. Courtesy of my mum Tbar1.
