P.S Both the fcuk moisture mist and med bath cream have been on the shelf before and the shelves have been kept empty with reduced sels still there so if youve missed a great bargain keep checking cos they obviously sometimes restock! Also had to tell you all about the 1st sa, every time she scanned a reduced item she kept double checking the product and then the price on the screen and giving me suspicious glares!'They only had one cow!'0 -

Vouchers inside it were
£5 off Christina Aggy-whatsit perfume
£4 off Venus breeze (which start at 3.99)
£5 off Olay Regenerist (possibly to use towards Olay gwp?!)
and something else which I forgot...
Oh god, being too clever, cannot upload photo. Will have to wait til DH returns home.
Here is photo, managed to do it without DH's help:0 -

Fab shop - I'm in awe :T :T :T
Hoping to get to Boots tomorrow. Everyone has been reporting more reductions this week - hope I'm as lucky!!:D0 -
Thanks blodwin, hope you get some bargains
Even though i had the list in my pocket i still forgot to look for jemma kidd nail files!:rotfl:
Purposely didnt get the no 7 as a bit short on cash but ill do that either today or tomorrow.:D'They only had one cow!'0 -
Just wondered if this could be added to the first post.....
Firstly I direct you to Martin's article on recycling old mobiles here for the record, the best company to recyle phones with is generally Envirophone who I have recycled 2 of my mobiles with in the past and found them very efficient
Back to Boots...
Boots have started a recycling old phones for advantage card points AND old ink cartridges.... just poitning this out as some people may prefer Boots points to Envirophone etc.
(a) Check if you can get a better deal anywhere else :money:
(b) If you want to recycle your old phone with Boots the link is here
(c) If you want to recycle your old ink cartridges, the list of ones you can recycle is here and they 'pay' 100 points and donate 20p to charity - *NOTE* Tesco green clubcard points also pay 100 points which is £1 to spend in Tesco or £4 in clubcard deals (which is a better deal if you shop in Tesco)...
Just thought I'd point out this new way of boosting clubcard pointsI've just changed my printer, and Boots Recycling take my cartridges

1st shop
My total spend £0.09
I got UG shine hair mask 9p with vouchers and
Avent massage Gel reduced to £1 had £1 voucher for avent (thanks sarah skint!)
nettinoos total spend £1.04 (I think!)
2nd shop (different store)
My total spend £2.35
ponds day cream using £2 off mag voucher ( not as cheap as others have been getting...but what else do I expect from Mr
nettinoos total spend £2.5x
3rd shop on my own ( again different store)
2 x£1.04 each
and
2 x£1.88 each
paid with points
nettinoo you know the store you did not come with me to is the one I got the above bargains from might be ideal if trying to make total to £18 if you wanted the GWP for Max factor/Olay..they had maxactor GWP's in stock but have only just thought about this combo.
Also they hadtotal effects eye cream for £3.xx, Sam of you want to know the store it is the 'little' one. Poss work with olay vouchers too..perhaps better than handcream?
Oh and guess what...nettinoo found yet another shelf packed with more berry bags!!This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.Robert M. Hutchins0
