Hi all, can't wait to go Bootsing but DD's are ill, one has chicken pox praying the baby doesn't get it. Will have to get some calamine lotion from Boots.

Really want to do an Expert baby shop and see if i can find some Elle McP stuff. Bet the glitch will be busted soon like NC , med and the toothbrushes. I still :smileyhea Boots 'cos you know the glitches will keep on a comin'

If you use both coupons and buy 6 things you get money owed to you, if you buy 6 things and use 1 voucher you get them free if they cost 2.49 but if they cost less than this you have to pay. Someone has written this on here but I cant seem to find it! Hope that helps

I bought 8 baby expert items and got them all free with the 2 different vouchers and the 2 for £3 discount kicked in, too. Managed to get those items, 2 drinks, 1 bottle of water and baby milk for £3.xx.

If you buy the more expensive baby expert items that are £2.49 each you get a bigger discount/money off. :j (£1.98) Unfortunately, they didn't have the foaming body wash in stock as we use loads of this wih DS. Do the different codes come from differnt age mailings? I had 3 of them and not sure which mailings they came from and to which 'parent', not that it matters.

It might work better if you got brand names in the title, and didn't do a surprise gift bag but rather listed things. People tend to search for specific things rather than browse randomly (at least I do) because there's just too much on ebay to "wander the aisles" as it were.

Maybe if you grouped items, like "No7 gift bag," or, if you don't have enough stuff to do one brand only per gift bag, try "No7, FCUK, benefit gift bag," then list the exact items you will put in that bag. If I were searching on eBay, something like that might get me to stop and look. But I wouldn't look at a "surprise" gift bag at all probably, though I might give it a glance if it were just £3 or £4 including shipping (and I imagine at that price it wouldn't be worth it to you to sell it). Most women have lots of little items they don't use as it is, and don't want to spend much to get a bag that might be all items they don't need, iyswim.

Good luck!

I agree. Either make up specific bags and then give buyers the option of which one, for example bag 1, 2 or 3 etc so everyone knows what to expect. Or how about putting items into lists ans letting buyers select items from eacl list? or make up bags with a specific sale in mind i.e teenager bag, mothers day, gift for gran. cosmetic or skincare etc.

Just back form Glasgow Fort and there are 250 points with any HP or EPSON branded printer ink, including reduced ones. Great it they stock what you use and still ok if you get it for £1.00(you could always sell it on ebay if you cant use it). I have stocked up in recent months on ink for my HP printer when I see it reduced. The normal price is about £20 and I have got them for £2-£4.50.
No Elle miniatures. The cheapest thing is the manicure in a tube at £4.95, decided I didnt need it!!!
Did get a R & M lip brush for £1.50
RED safety scissors for £1
17 glitter eyeshadow and eye pencil for 50p each
and an ink at £1.50.
TOTAL £5, free £2 voucher and 262 points.

Did the Elle Glitch twice today:D on self service tills. 1 for me,1 for lil sis, who was hiding scared of being rumbled lol.

I must add that the sales assistant that stands by the self service tills, was looking at me very closely when the machine said £2.00 please. I was sweating.

I was gonna go back a third time for the last mini Shower gel at £2.00.However ,lost my nerve. I also had a very cute manager say no to the UG glitch today, in a different Boots. I acted clueless and he fell for it. He said very sweetly that you can only use 1 voucher, or the other . I replied.................... ohh I didnt know that

I have never been refused a glitch before ( as I mostly use self service tills) ,but hey ho .You win some ,you lose some.
So left it :rotfl: . Gonna try again 2moro somewhere else.
