    what are the Eyes And Lips sets? i did a quick search but i couldn't see anything!
    They are on the R & M stand and are reduced (half price) from £12 to £6. They are black with red (lips) or green (eyes) shiny writing on. That's if there are any left.

    Sorry to bump!!!

    I got the olay hand cream £4.97, used the till spit so cost 0p and used the 600 points voucher wyb olay and also used the free toner/wipes wyb olay. No problems and no beeps. I assume therfore the money off one should be fine as well. Just make sure you have other shopping so the £4 is knocked off.

    Just reading the thread and thought I'd add my 2p worth, and I agree with Skibster in the sense, some occasional readers of this thread may stumble upon a post and see something that not all of us agree with...for example, the TS glitch is a great glitch but you have to put it in perspective - buying 6 or 7 sets of the stuff and only paying a penny each time is one way to draw attention to yourself and the glitch in general. It would be far better if you were to do the glitch (in moderation) but actually buy other stuff so it isn't so obvious. Otherwise it can ruin it for everyone...its different to just using the No7 spit to get cheap items as this is actually legitimate...
    Same goes for the mitchum why risk getting 10 or 12 cans using 10 or 12 50% vouchers AND £1 off vouchers to get money off your entire shop when you could be risking getting the vouchers banned and spoiling it for everyone...I just think people need to be careful and think before they recommend something that occasional bootsers may not know the conseqences of x

    Totally agree mrsbb, otherwise we may get busted like Tescos.....
    No H&B anywhere now!

    Please God, don't let Mr B fix the glitch until I can get a go!
    Desperately want to do the Mitchum and TS but gotta work, day off is Friday!

    These are £4.99 each in boots but are on 2 for £5 so you could get 2 of these and get the till splits etc for £5 spend.

  • Did a quick shop today. All of this for a grand total of 3p and 600 points back, used 3 x till spits and 3 x200 mag points vouchers, 3 x TS mag vouchers...all completed in one trip to the till but split into 6 different shops.

    This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.

    I'm curious if/when the mega sale on No7 that someone mentioned last night may start! Can't recall who, but she saw a notice about it that a No7 SA was reading. She said it starts next week -- but she said that yesterday, so does that mean it could start today, or next Monday?

    If anyone spots big piles of sale stuff, please report back! :):)

    Hi , it was me that saw the notice, the SA told me it is starting Bank Holiday Week, so i assume from Monday 25th - Monday 1st sep.
    It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.

    I love seeing all the pics and hearing of the bargains, I personally always try to disguise the glitches with some other bits I need anyway, I would be too embarassed/worried about my points to get stuff for next to nothing. I was mortified today when the SA said 45p!!!!

    Hi
    Firstly I'd like to thank everyone for posting how to get the best deals!
    I'm more a lurker than a poster but I thought it was time I joined in. It's very addictive, this bootsing!!!

    I went shopping tosay and tried to get 2x TD SHAVING BALM £3.75 sa said I needed a voucher for each one but I thought I could just pay the diference, she wouldn't scan it. I know some people have got reduced stuff with tillspits and I just wondered if anyone thinks I should be able to get 2 and pay difference. Sorry for rambling it was with 2 JK nailfiles and I was trying to get extra vouchers by going over £5. Ended up just getting 1 and missing out on vouchers. Got lots of other bargains though, will try to post shops later.
    Thanks everyone
    Again sorry for rambling.:confused:

    I think the SA was wrong about this. Yesterday I got 3 x reduced TD items at 1.57 with one tillspit and my friend bought a TD eye cream for 3.75 plus a reduced TD item with one tillspit and paid the difference. Hope this helps!
