Hope this helps.
Great to see you are all as excited as I am !!!!!!


Hello Tim

Excellent news, I was going purely by the info on the boots site.
Glad to know you will be our inside informer on products here locally, that's nothing to mock

Hope you are still on for the July event .............
Cheers

It was actually quite hard to find the Boots UK site from here in the US (they use clever clever servers at boots.com) but managed to trick things finally. The same stuff in the US (compared amounts) is cheaper than in the UK, which is nice given the dollar-to-pound exchange rate.

Thats good to know, as I tended not to shop in Boots as it was overpriced I felt.
I know make-up was good there but I tend not to wear much make-up so I never needed to replenish my supplies very often.

Great, thanks for the tip! Just checked and there is a Target stockist near where we'll be moving to (on Monday!!! )

Wonder if my Boots points card will be accepted here?!

None of my local Targets have it in stock and I was telling my Mum about it yesterday. This morning she phoned all the Boots stores near where she lives and the only one that had it in stock was the one in Manchester City Centre (one per person only). So off she went to Manchester, bought me a tube and it is now on it's way to NJ.

Does it, you will have to let me know?

I don't know I guess I am mistrustful of all these creams maybe cause they were expensive, though this one isn't
But I haven't known anyone who uses them to find if it works.

My Gran and mum just slapped 'cold cream' on their face every night for about 40+ years and they didn't have many wrinkles, me I slap astral on twice a day for 10yrs now, and I will wait and see if it prevents any wrinkles (if it doesn't I want a refund )
