If you buy the TS long hair serum and any other TS, you will be charged 0.01p - right?

So, whatever other TS you want, as long as you buy the TS long hair serum, it will cost you 0.01p.

If you don't want the TS long hair serum, you only want a shampoo and conditioner, the best way to get them is to do the TS long hair serum plus one, then do it again in another transaction to get the other, and you will have got your shampoo and conditioner for 0.02p the two.

You will also have got 2 TS long hair serums, which you can give to a charity, or drop on a shelf as you leave Boots (in the hope that they will get back to the TS shelf, and help a fellow MSE'r!:T )

I'd be intrigued to find out what would happen if you were seen doing this!:eek: It's like reverse shoplifting! I agree though, it's madness to be able to get something cheaper by buying something else that you don't actually want.:rolleyes:

Sorry if this has already been asked but I've been away for a few days and when I went to the acm in boots today I got a 500 points when you buy 2 no.7 P&P skin care. I don't need suncare so what's the best combo to buy to get the free gift? I've got the £5 off till spit as well after buying

2 x mitchum @ £1.65 (with 2 x 50% (£1.50) off and 2 x £1 off coupons) so £3.30 with £5 back
ts thermal wrap and ts long hair shampoo @ £1.01

so nothing to pay. I realised after I had 69p value left with the money off coupons that I hadn't used but not bad anyway.

You could try:

x2 P&P hand cream £10.25 each

Total: £20.50
use pinky and 500pts voucher
New Total: £15.50
Points: 500 plus normal spend
And GWP (if you get nice no7 SA or use a diff till )

Not too sure tho, as i haven't tried this personally

That should be fine - even the No7 SAs don't seem to have a problem with you getting the GWP when you use a pinky as the pinkys are essentially gift vouchers, so as good as cash, it's just getting the GWP when you actually spend less than £20 by getting suncare BOGOF that sems to rile them!:rolleyes:

Am soooo loving bootsing at the moment, all these glitches and vouchers have got me back into addiction mode. Actually couldn't get to sleep last night for trying to work out the various combinations of things I actually need/freebies/low cost shops (very sad!).
I split my shops between the two branches in Eldon Square (as the bigger store didn't have the TD wipes). There was a lovely SA in the main branch who was taking time to explain the vouchers and what you could get for no spend with them. There was no need to ask for the No 7 voucher, it was given automatically each time.
I got my essentials - phone top-up, toothpaste and some other bits and pieces that I split into different shops to get the current vouchers. Ended up with loads of bargains - Mitchum deoderants (the 50% coupons took off 1.50 each but didn't scan, so were entered manually), free TD wipes & 3 x TD anti-blemish skin concentrates (she put these through on one tillspit as they were reduced to 1.57 each, bless), free reduced to 5 pound No 7 anti-cellulite lotion, and No 7 Shimmering Lip & Eye Screen (on BOGOF so only 75p for 2 with the No 7 voucher), plus 2 x Trevor Sorbie items - a long hair conditioning treatment & a colour glosser (only 1.01 to pay with my last mag voucher).
The only voucher that wasn't accepted was my last 200 points wyb TD, but by this point I didn't care. No sign of any more H&B mags and none when I asked. I'm now well stocked and feel lots of pampering coming on before my holiday. Thanks again to all those who keep this thread up to date.

Thanks for the info about eldon square, was hoping there might still be mags - did you go to the other boots, the one that's near the Gate, opposite greggs? They usually have loads of mags, longer than the bigger stores. Also, who was the nice SA you found? I'm quite scared of the big ES store, some of the SAs look either clueless or scary! I thought I'd be ok with one of the younger ones one the tills by the meal deal section, but she was the worst! (this was when I was attempting the MM glitch, with the £2 off and ACM plus mag coupon, the supervisor was about to add the points on, when SA piped up 'oh, but should she be getting both offers though?' and guess what, the supervisor agreed! :mad:) I usually go to the man with glasses on the photo tills downstairs, as he scans most vouchers without a word, but I've done quite a lot of glitches with him, wouldn't like to call attention to myself! :eek:

Also, did you see if they had any JK files left? I have so many of which I've used one, but the way I see it, it's getting 20% off everything in boots, so if you use the points (which I intend to immediately on clinique for OH) on either things which aren't on offer, or even better, things which already have money off, it's better to buy than not buy even if I never use the files. Athough I wouldn't just buy them to increase my points if I didn't have anything in particular to spend them on.

Went in Boots today got time delay face wipes for free with the £5 skin care voucher and Rubie and Millie have half price offer on lip,eye and metallic palettes and because it was an offer not a reduction I got an LIP palette usually £12 for £1 using the Rubie and Millie £5 voucher BARGAIN!!!!!! Two items usually around £15 for £1

Did a good shop today using the Mitchum glitch and the TS one. Messed up slightly with the TS as i got the red glosser thinking that would work but now realise it's only the long hair serum that brings the total to 1p!

Could someone please help me with the Oral B voucher? Does it work on the brushed that are 1/2price at the moment or would I need to buy 2 of them? We are in need of a new one anyway so no problem if I need to buy 2.

TIA

I think, (someone might like to confirm?) that as long as the Oral B was over £30 in the first place - before promo price - then the vouchers should work. Not sure if it would work on a 'reduced sticker' item though?

Damn! The ones on half price offer were only £24.75 before the offer. Oh well, voucher is valid till the end of October.

Thanks for your reply. x
