    I think - and I'd love to be proved wrong :rotfl: , but you'd need to spend another 4.99 as this is a Boots promotion, and I'm assuming it's seen in the same way as a Boots coupon, rather than a NSS coupon which is seen as cash by the till.

    Or of course, buy some Mitchum and use the 50% vouchers which are treated as cash as long as they are scanned by the SA and not put on manually as a Boots coupon. When they scan, they show as a Brand coupon.

    Hope that makes sense!!!!
    I was just about to say same thing!!
    But yesterday I bought 2x shampoo = £7 - 4.49 = 2.51(with mag voucher)
    plus mitchum 1.79 = 4.30
    handed over 1x mitcum voucher = minus 1.50
    paid 2.80 and got both £5 vouchers:confused: wasn't complaining tho

    The time delay 200 points with the free skincare voucher didn't work for my stepdaughter, and I told her to give the 200 points first, then product, then skincare voucher, but she was told because she was getting it for free, she didn't qualify for points.:confused:
    I was trying to boost her AC card so she could get some makeup. bought her the £3.99 dazzle eyeshadow instead.

    I think the SA probably refused to scan it as opposed to it not working.

    I found a small store yesterday with wipes but was told NO to pts as they were free and she screwed up my 200pts coupon :rolleyes: Technically the're right of course as it's using 2 coupons on 1 product so just need to organise lists so that you get the TS glitch (and maybe a Mitcham) at the same time ;)

    Thank you Boo.

    I had already go the TS glitch to get the vouchers for SD and she wanted TS, so it was just to boost her card points, but the way she is behaving now, I don't care anymore.

    Thank you for the info.:T

    Oh man I live in the sticks and can't decide which direction to head in - mind you haven't been to either of my locals yet (both 16 miles in opp directions). It's nice to be able to access at least a couple of stores (especially at the mo) as most of them aren't that big round here iyswim?

    Travelled an hour and went to 4 yesterday. Two where I haven't been before and said I didn't have an ad card so I could get some Huggies for my yummy grandson (must remember to dress differently next time I go there ;))

    WARNING TO NEWBIE COUPON (MOC) USERS
    I didn't feel comfortable handing over 3 of Broc's proxy ones so used 2 twice and I would NEVER use my ad card with them or in a shop I used regularly.

    Someone has already been challenged in a shop where someone had already used some that day - there could be a memo going round right now............ SO BE ULTRA CAREFUL OUT THERE GUYS to save any embarassment

    The Mitchams should be fine as long as no one takes the P (yeah right - someone is bound to get greedy and try to clear the shelves - read about the Tesco razor glitch yesterday where a pts member was queueing with 1 pk when a bloke tried buying all 30ish from the shelf - he was stopped and got none while the pts member was allowed hers).


    ......So basically what I meant to say angel was that wherever I go I won't be back till teatime but of course will be attempting the challenge :p

  • ok i will be travelling via boots tomorrow as going on train from birmingham to oop north.
    think this deserves a treat so want to get some no7 stuff, i have a 300 on the instant radience concealer from a mailing so will use that plus hope to gain the tillsplit plus the timedelay one.
    is there any other no 7 ones i can add on for points or is that the lot as hope to get 2 no 7 p&p pretan holiday maintainers on bogof to pick up the freegift.
    what is a good way to get the inital tillsplits and points?? would it be the nail files?
    also what is good to buy with the other timedelay & stuff tillsplit:confused:
    sorry so many questions but ive got a bit out of practice on the old bootsing lol:rotfl:
