Hi all, :hello:
found you! I am really missing the Boots thread, glad to see there are still some people around. Just wanted to let you know about a couple of cheap-ish things I found today in Edinburgh Straiton.

Big 400ml bottles of Johnson's 24 Hour moisture bodywash reduced to 74p on the clearance stand.

Also (this may have previously been mentioned?), fcuk pure showerfoam (mango & aloe vera) half price on SEL @ £2 each, but also on 342, so 3 for £4 = the price of 1! This was on the normal shelf.

To let you all know I was in the Sunderland store today and the Soap & Glory stuff is 1/3 off! I got all excited and bought a Soaper Heroes set for my cousin for Crimbo as she loves the stuff but I stupidly used my Advantage card to pay so ended up having to pay full price! Not happy though as the woman who served me should have told me I would be better off using cash.

evening all

not much in the way of bargains today didnt see any reduced sel in my very small local today and it is usually quite good for wee bargains.

However did manage to get these huggies pull ups medium for girls 16 in a pack for £1.25 I bought 3 packs.

Do you think someone could perhaps write up all of the coded stuff on here? its increasingly hard to follow you guys and any offers -feels a bit like I'm an outsider as I don't "get" the code- skinnies? SEL? These are just on this page but I dare not read back further or I just end up confusing myself even more!

:rotfl:

That way all your fantastic glitches and offers can be enjoyed by us non-boots-literates!

It's a good idea to print out Mrs T's abbreviations, and any glitches that are suggested, unless you have a wonderful memory!

Lots of offers and Clearance items are store specific, for instance, something that is £15 in one branch, may be reduced to £6 in another.

But bargains and glitches are definitely very thin on the ground at the moment, compared to previous offers. But, as we know, every little helps!

I have purchased S&G at 1/3 off, and paid with points at the discounted price. Do you still have the receipt so you can question it?

Ambre Solaire Clear Protect Gel SPF20 is on clearance on dot com at the moment, £2.49 and BOGOF.

Mr B seems to be just putting on a few bottles at a time, there were a few this morning, currently OOS but keep on checking for it.

Free delivery to a store at the moment, with no minimum spend. If you use Quick checkout then it's worth adding your local store to your address book when you have a spare minute (use the store locator to find the option), saves a lot of faffing when you are trying to checkout in a hurry.
