am i reading this right that the Sexy Mother Plucker Lip Gloss has been reduced?
my store had rows and rows of this thursday but was still marked up at £8 odd pound? i would love some but already have truck loads of glosses and only one set of lips :rolleyes: so not prepared to pay full price <snipped>

You have to be careful - there are two sets of triples in a pack and the two packs are different shades. The ones reduced to 4.38 have barcodes ending in 774. They're not any gloss, they're plumpers.

Apologies if I am not first with this ............

TS long hair shine shampoo 4.99
TS frshen and shine spray 100ml (bit bigger than mini size)3.99

handed over £2 till spit , 100 points and free mag voucher

till took off the shampoo,then the £2 leaving 1.99 to pay with 100 points!

Thought this was a good deal and will get more mags next week to do again.

NB Model me voucher from mag insert will not go through with any other voucher in my store . the SA said she had tried to do herself and no one could get it to go through or override it . As i am not keen on the product (don't like the packaging!) will prob not bother with it

Afternoon all!
I went shopping this morning, and came across the Jemma Kidd nail files at last.... very close to a poster advertising 500 points. Took them to the till and did not get the extra points, so came back to check the flier. I spoke to Ms Snooty who was near the poster, who informed me that of course I had not got the points as emery boards are 'accessories':mad: . I said I no longer wanted them (her attitude made me v cross!) and she told me to go back to the tills. There a lovely SA came and looked at the poster, then called for a lovely manager, who came down and added the points.:j
Must say I would never have dared trying this without this point - cheers all!
Also got a till spit so will try the till spit with the mag voucher and see where we go with that.
I thought the Jemma Kidd offer had finished???

I would really like some Amor Amor perfume - does that ever get put on offer?

I actually posted this glitch a couple of days ago, but I had been wondering if it only worked with either the shampoo or conditioner, or if it only charged you for the cheaper item in any TS combo that involved a long hair product. Sounds like it does! Edit: Ohh, wait, I just noticed one of your products was a shampoo after all, so we still don't know if this works when a long hair shamp or cond is NOT involved. If anyone finds out, please share!

I wanted to try the TS long hair curl cream (4.99) with the TS curl serum in the pink bottle (6.99). If it works, that would be 2.99 to pay plus 100 points. If it doesn't work, you'd end up paying 4.99 and thus would be better off doing two transactions with cheaper items that definitely work (like the shampoo, so it would be 2.49 each time and 100 points each time).

If anyone else tries this in various combos that don't include a shampoo or conditioner, please report back!

Hi everyone:) I did an online shop with Boots last week, and got wonderful bargains. I love to stock up on great bargains when I see them, so have quite a stash put away. I also got 75% off some presents for relatives for Christmas, and a few baby presents for two young nieces who are expecting babies in December, and a birthday gift for sil in Dec too. I am delighted with Boots now, and while I was in there a few days ago, I went up to the back of our local boots, just browsing:) And found bargains there too. My husband's shaving gel was only 33p usually £1 odds so I got two, and a face pack spa thing for only 33p, which I will treat myself to tonight:) I never really shopped there to be honest and thanks to all the kind posters here I will always go when I am searching for bargains. Thanks everyone xx

The offer did finish, so that's why the points didn't automatically go on. But you were entitled to them as they still had the sign up. I wonder if they figured out after you left that they need to take the sign down, lol.

Hi everyone

We don't usually explain why we haven't picked certain nominations for post of the month but in the circumstances we wanted to just say that we really struggled with it this month for obvious reasons.

All your help and support for Jill really has been wonderful but in the end we felt having a permanent reminder of Thomas' passing away in the weekly email wouldn't really be very sensitive.

Jill, if you're reading this please accept the heart-felt condolences of everyone in the MSE Team.

Take care

Andrea xx
