    Just a word of warning guys. I bought some Jemma Kidd make up removing wipes yesterday to get the points, and was planning on putting them in xmas hampers.
    Was passing Boots today (for a change lol) and went to pick up another couple of packs. Noticed they have a use by date of August 2008!!!
    So no good for xmas obv :rolleyes:
    Don't know if this is nationwide or just my branch having oldish stock.
    Bit annoying though. Am now trying to work out if I can put a sticker over the date and hope the wipes haven't dried up by then, or if I should just give them up as a bad job lol.
    My branch was getting ready for the new offers tomorrow.
    There seem to be promotions on
    Sanctuary (orange range)
    Ladies Ted Baker (new range)
    Timotei
    Fructis shampoo.

    Oh and Olay handcream, like most things, is still full price in the Oxford city centre store!
    Hope that helps somebody.

    will this combine with the free lip glaze voucher in Best magazine (17 june edition) when you spend £5 on 17

    be good if it does, 2 freebies on a £5 spend :j

    You could quite possibly get two freebies on a £1.21 spend. If this coupon works like the one from the Boots mag a few months ago, then the £3.79 price of the lip glaze would count toward your total spend to get the gwp. If you want to see if that works, try this: Hand over a lip glaze (which will ring at £3.79), hand over any other 17 item that costs at least £1.21, then hand over the gwp. This should ring up just fine as the till has recorded you have spent £5 on 17. THEN hand over the lip glaze voucher, which should take £3.79 off the total, leaving you to pay the excess. Worth a shot!

    Edit: FYI, the lip glaze is on sale for £2.79 online. I don't know if that's true in-store, but if so just adjust your purchase accordingly so that the total comes to £5 before any coupon is handed over. If the coupon scans in, it may come off at £3.79 even if the glaze is on sale. If the SA keys it in, you may only get £2.79 off your total. Still a bargain!

    argh 2 boots.com orders in a month, i feel my old boots habits are creeping back slowly. On the upside of abstaining from this thread for 6 months, I now have no wipes left, only 2 eye makeup removers, 3 shower gels, 3 body creams and about 4 eyemakeup remover pads..... my last 2 shops have included xmas presents (reduced perfume), things neighbours have asked me to buy etc. but have earnt nearly £30 in points.

    Also have £40 boots vouchers from pigsback, so thats £70 to spend on 75% off day in January!

    Think I'd better get back in the swing of Bootsing! I have missed it!!

    If we still had those no7 vouchers the over-60's could of got the no7 sharpner for minus 5p. I guess most of you did that anyway.. but just thinking ;)

    Anyway, i got 5 sharpners for 2.50 :T which i was/am pleased about :D

    Also 7 :p eyeshadow brushes and a few nail varnishs..

    Btw, sorry its so late.. just reminded me reading old posts :)
