I have a very confusing shopping list.
1, I bought my lunch in boots, £3.49. Got new TS. THAT BIT WAS EASY!:j
After work I thought I might just pop down to Oxford St to get some more sun protection as I have just booked a holiday. I bought
No7 Firm your Body SPF 15 (12.50)
No7 Facial Sun Protection SPF 25 (£10.00) but free as 241
No7 GWP
T&G Model me Erin Dry Shampoo (£2.74) showed £5.49 on shelf:eek:
Botanics 3 minute mask x 2 (£5.00) £4.99 each or 2 for £5.00
17 Ultimate Lip Gloss (£3.79)
17 Nail Polish (£2.69)
17 GWP
Loreal Excell 10 Hair Dye (£5.99)was £7.99 so saved £2.00
Shaper Sparkling Cream Soda £0.99
I was at the self service till and I used,
250pts WYS £30
500pts WYS £10 on facial suncare
100pts WYB any 17 product
250pts WYB Botanics 3 minute mask
£5 off summer till spit*
£1 off WYB 17 ultimate Lip Gloss
I also scanned the 250pts WYB any model me product which didn't work and the supervisor had to come over to check as the till locks.
The supervisor had a look through the receipt, and said that the £5 off summer till spit hadn't worked either so gave me it back.
I paid £27.70
saved £25.73
and got 1046 pts.
It looks like the till had taken off the £5 wys £20 on summer stuff afterall.
Need some more sun lotion so will have to go back again tomorrow, but don't think I will go through self service till again as I get far too confused
Hope this doesn't confuse you all as it has confused me.:rotfl:

Just wanted to say thanks to whoever spotted the Huggies Newborn boxes were going through at £2.50 (really sorry can't remember who it was)! Picked up 2 today SEL said £5 but had them price checked at the pharmacy and they were indeed £2.50. Great buy for when my 2 pregnant friends "drop", lol. My good deed for today was pointing out this little bargain to a very pregnant lady who was looking at the Huggies stuff nearby. Think she thought I was mad at first though, she did buy one and said "wow that is good", lol. Edit: Was it pounds_in_bucks? Thanks!
Hiya sam84uk -
Thanks for the mention
. I'm glad peeps have been able to take advantage of this offer. It's only down to this thread I am brave enough to get some stuff price checked just in case the price through the till is better than the SEL
. My store stopped restocking the shelves with these boxes after a few days, I guess they sold out. Must try the glitch with the new tillspit this w/e, Boots, here I come...

It took months before I started to get the ACM offers when I first got my own card.Buffy_the_Vampire_Bat wrote: »To keep it really Boots related
Is it normal for new AC holders not to get many offers in the ACM for a bit? Mr Buffy Bat has had his card for a while now and gets *** all out of the machine

Free Pampers Changing bag
Lots of Expert ( for my Best Friend who gives birth in 5 weeks!!)
2 reduced Nivea creams
2 No7 Tan maintainer ( Free as used £5 off PC and £5 off Till spit)

You should be able to combine the new till spit with the 500 points on suncare on 2 x No7 dark spot protector £10.50 and get gwp (till sees £21 you pay £5.50 and get 500 points so essentially free)
Where's Broclo she's better at this?
500 points when you spend £10 on no7 sun protection
You only need to spend £10 on facial suncare and £20 in total on suncare so you could replace 1 x No7 dark spot protector £10.50 with one of these, if you will use them better:
No7 Protect & Perfect Tan Enhancing Sun Protection 12.00
No7 Protect & Perfect Tan Enhancing Sun Protection 12.00
No7 Firm-Your-Body Toning Sun Protection SPF 15 12.00
No7 Firm-Your-Body Tan Maintainer 10.00
2 x No7 Protect & Perfect Anti-Ageing Lip & Eye Screen (£5.75)£11.50
So these would be between £5 and £7, with 1 x No7 dark spot protector, gwp and 500pts also.
100 points on botanic bath, body, accessory range
Cheapest you can get is the Botanics Waffle Body Buffer £1.50
500 points when you spend £10 on no7 skincare
No point trying to combine with suncare offers at the moment.
However if you get a No7 liplicious(use 100 points wyb from magazine) for £9.25, you could combine with say a No7 Uplifting Firming Mask 11.00, which would be £20.25, gwp and 600 points. Hardly the bargain of the year, but is if you will use them
Other No7 skincare bits under £12 are No7 Line Lift 20ml 12.00 and No7 Essential Moisture Day Cream 125ml 11.50
Where am I? Had bad evening! Little man took his first steps:D ...but straight into a metal handle on my sideboard:mad: , chipped front teeth(badly...smashed really!) and blood everywhere, so he has been feeding on and off for last 3 hrs!
Amazing thing is...I can not get(last of my worries admittedly)a piece of his tooth out of the pewter handle :eek: , but he did hit it hard...one of those sounds that can only be described as 'sickening' :rolleyes:
Better? :rotfl: No just more anal :rotfl:0 -
