    Could anyone recommend a very scrubby body scrub please? The only good ones I've got have decidedly feminine scents, and bf wants one. (I've trained him to let me get that sort of thing, as he doesn't understand Bootsing, but thinks I get some great bargains!)

    Time Delay for men does a body scrub, so free (I think - or a few pence, .com is down) with till spit and 200 pts :j

    Surely they'd get more revenue if they actually used them to buy stuff with first then sold the items they have bought? If that makes sense?:confused:

    -Mrs T- and KJ1980, you both have PM's.

    Broclo, you have email!


    Have caught up with this thread and bootsing after a holiday and general busyness. Have been to boots 3 times since the spits started - got loads of them over the weekend, but did 4 shops last night and only got facial spits :confused:

    Didn't question as the SA was confused enough already, irritated because I'd got the No7 GWP with suncare BOGOF and proved her wrong with the TD mag voucher by asking her to "please try it anyway?" and the security guard was standing at the locked door tapping his feet (the shop was closing) so I felt I'd drawn enough attention to myself for one day.....

    Got outside and looked at my receipts and noticed that a reduced No7 handcream (bought with spit) had gone through full price, so overcharged by £5.25 - going to have to go back today.

    But it does kind of prove that although the facial spits are automatic, I reckon the No7 vouchers are at the SA's discretion, as she wasn't happy with me, although I'd remained polite throughout (possibly end of day fed-up syndrome)

    Any thoughts?

    I'd prefer him to be listing till spits!

    Nice as the No7 are - the choice of items on the spits are fantastic and with the added bonus of "free" points on TD!!

    Actually, sometimes you just get a fraction of the price for an item, then you have to pay shipping (if you sale on ebay). And that's if you pick items that people actually want and will buy -- with the vouchers people can pick their own items and the shipping is probably one stamp! Makes sense to me (but I couldn't part with freebies to sell my vouchers, lol). But it seems odd the seller has so many he/she doesn't want to use. I wonder if it's a Boots employee who managed to lift a book of vouchers?

    Original source do a body scrub type thing, there is a bluey/grey one at the moment that is down to 99p. Worth a try? :confused:

    I suspect a lot of men have no use for them......
    I offered to get my OH something but he doesn't see the need for anything other than toothpaste and a bar of soap!
