    I'm going into town tomorrow and just thought I'd ask all you wonderful bootsers......
    Are there any ACM offers that I can combine with the 10 points per pound wys 15 pounds?
    Can I get a phone topup without having a topup card? (have no idea where mine is!)
    Do the skincare ranges that you can use the till spits on have any face masks/peels?
    Thanks.

    You are better off to break your transactions up into smaller purchases of just over £5 That way you will get a tillsplit each time (Better value than an extra 6pts per £)

    Sorry can't help on top-ups but someone else will ;)

    Have a look on the first post to see some great items you can get with the til split, spending very little or no money at all

    I never knew that telling you your username instore would lead to so much fun lol

    I think i know which one rubes is now. I'm sure she's the one in the 'wanted - dead or alive' poster in the staff canteen :rotfl:

    only joking rubes. your more than welcome, as long as you spend loads of money!

    The one thing that worries me passion, is when all the Alliance stores get rebranded to Boots stores. we probably won't see you for weeks as there will be that many of them! there are two in cott already i think. these stores are called 'your local boots pharmacy' and are the small, community stores mainly. AFAIK, they will have slightly different offers from larger (know as health and beauty) stores. So a quick request to all the peeps out there, if you go to a small store, pick up a certain offer, and then go to a large store and the offer is not on, please don't have a go at us! I don't think many of you on here would as it seems a friendly forum but you just never know who's lurking, do you passion? :rotfl:

    Rubes spends more than me AB ;) :rotfl:

    And you'll see me ok lol.

    I daren't go into my local Alliance after falling over the weighing machine :o whilst wearing my new specs. It's only about six foot big and surrounded by warning tape! :rotfl: lol

    Thanks.

    The total spend ACM vouchers are removed from the machines when it is a points weekend, so that one is a no i'm afraid.

    You can get a phone top up without your card, just ask for an e-voucher for your phone. you can't get as many demonitions as with a card though. these are available for all the major networks and tesco mobile and asda mobile.

    As for the third question, I have no idea to be honest as i don't work on that side of the store. sorry!

    Thanks - Unfortunately I have to bite the bullet and pay full price for my favourite foundation (its over 20 pounds, and I can't even get it for less on ebay!). So it looks like only one till spit for me, unless I can get the phone topup without my topup card. I really need a face mask/peel as am well stocked with other skincare.

    my 200 points coupon also beeped but she kept it and insisted it went through............an email to mr.b i think tommorrow, might be cheeky and ask for 400 as if it had gone through thats what it would have given me lol
    Is this to 200 wyb frames/albums? I had them refused by two SAs today - one told me it was because the albums were reduced and BOGOF. I pointed out that they'd worked before, bhut she reckoned because more offers were on, some had been removed. And she told me I was being greedy!!:angry:
