Boots Haul - £5 No7 Vouchers

I love it when Boots do the £5 No7 Vouchers, so yesterday had a mooch around Boots while the hubby went to check out what bargains he could pick up from Game.

So I went in armed with a single £5 voucher.....



I needed some new face powder so picked up the No7 Perfect Light Loose Powder in Translucent (I did actually think I had picked up fair, but just saw the bottom of the pot!) I've never tried this powder before, I'm hoping its not too drying. It has good reviews on Boots website so I'm looking forward to trying it out. It retails at £11 so after using my voucher I paid £6 and received another £5  No7 voucher.


I then put my advantage card in the machine, I always forget to do this but I had some points to pick up for an internet delivery.  I got three vouchers - 300 points on any Champneys, 250 points on any No7 Beautiful skin and buy any item from the 17 range and get a free hide and chic eye brightening concealer.



I picked up a Lasting Fix nail polish in sweet kisses which is a lilac pastel colour for £2.99, received the hide and chic worth £4.99 for free! I bought some chocolate to make it up to £5 and got another £5 No7 voucher (2 tucked away in purse now)


I used the 300 extra points Champneys voucher on a gorgeous body scrub - smells minty fresh! A bit weird for a body scrub but I think it would be fab to wake you up in the morning!  This cost me £6 so I got another £5 No7 voucher (3 now in purse)



I haven't tried this since its been rebranded under No7 beautiful skin, I'm hoping its only the packaging thats changed and not the product! This retails at £10, but I used one of my No7 £5 vouchers and the voucher for 250 extra points - meaning that I paid £5, got an extra 250 points and another No7 voucher! So back to 3 vouchers....at this point my hubby has finished looking round Game and wants to go to Nandos for lunch (yummy, yummy in my tummy) so I do what I usually do with my vouchers.....



Spend them on nail varnish! L-R Dollar, Milan and Base Coat. These retail at £7 each but using the vouchers I paid £2 each.


Its so hard to pick up the colour, Dollar is a metallic greeny-teal colour.


Milan is a metallic pink, with tiny silver glitter so that it looks like foil! Can't wait to try this out!

So I ended up with goods worth £55.98, less £25.00 of vouchers, less £4.99 free product for £25.99! I also got an extra £5.50 on my Advantage card so technically only spent £20.49! Bargain!!


Oh and walking back to the car I popped in good old Dotty P's, picked up these gorgeous shoes, reduced from £39 to a fabulous £7! Will match my new dollar nail varnish perfectly :)




Found this pic on their website, I couldn't get the colour to show up properly!




What do you think of my little haul? Did I spend my vouchers well? What are you planning to pick up with any vouchers you have got?
