Hope nobody minds me posting this, but I pmd Andrea to ask her to reopen the thread and she said no and to start a new one as someone told her the thread is non boots related, so until CPG gets back and can do her magic this can be temporary. Hope thats ok.
This is continuation of Boots Grabbit Part 38
This post contains all the updated glitches, offers etc and post 2 contains Q&A so please read the first and second posts of this thread for any answers you need. This will save a lot of duplicate questions on this thread.

Successfully getting some of the better glitches often depends on if the SA you pick is willing to try. Its sometimes sensible to buy some other things to 'disguise' your bargain. If the SA won't put it through, please don't make a fuss - they are only doing their job. Just try again another SA / store / day. It is a good idea to try and make a friend in a SA if possible.

Is it accepted under Boots' policy to use more than one voucher per transaction?
Yes! The official word from customer services is "I can confirm that you are able to use more than one voucher at a time per transaction.

I don't understand why that happened?
I thought the whole 'on-topic' 'off-topic' 'chat' 'no-chat' thing had been sorted? Haven't read most of the thread though so can't be too sure?.............

i think it just clears the board up ready for a fresh start0

I think a few people complained yesterday about not relevant posts so thats why but hey ho we all carry on....
I managed to take my mascara back by the way and they were fine and as I had used the GWP they let me keep it.Will not spend more money, but will spend more time looking for that great bargain!:dance:

Thanks Ikkle. xxxxxx What a shame.
I will be checking the SELs in my local Boots later to see if there are any minis reduced and will report if so (staying on topic).(((spoons)))0 -
I know there have been a few questions raised over the amount of chat on this thread and as this is not my site it is not my place to make any rules or anything but i thought i could maybe list a few things we could maybe all agree on to try and keep the thread nice a friendly.
Could general messages be PMed rather than posted on the thread eg. Thanks for voucher, Night time sparkly's, Thinking of nicknames for others just general private conversations.
When quoting if its pics maybe just put the persons name in Bold with a comment without quoting the actual picture.
Please remember if you are going to comment on a store or sa being rude etc please do not mention the name of the sa or the shop/area.
Please also keep in mind that glitches are for everyone so don't feel the need to clear the shelfs of hundreds of items.

Hiya guys from what MSE Andrea has said there have been complaints that the thread was largely off topic. Am obviously not as skilled as CPG so hopefully she will be back soon to sort it out and make it look nice.
Boots related:
I had a complaint over a SA and problem with a gift I got and had an email from CS today and they are crediting me with 1000 points
Also
Some of you may remember I had an order for £2.95 including delivery, well it arrived today so I can tell you that I dont know how I did it but I somehow managed to order an Elizabeth Arden GWP and the Estee Lauder Mascara Samples and just pay postageYou never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
