    Had a funny day today.

    Bought 3 mitchums used 3 50% off vouchers, they scanned a treat. cost 45p but no till spits/pinkys?

    I bought no7 eyeshadow, nail varnish, and the new autumn pallette, used the pinkys and did in seperate transactions but 250 pointers from gwp would not scan at all. (tried scanning them first and still beeped so nothing to do with payment method) SA wouldnt add as said couldnt be used in conjuction with any other offer.

    Tried the nappies again and got point blank refused, told it was strictly one per pack and couldn't use any if buying 3 as 3 for 2 is on offer and they are not to be used in conjuction with any other offer.

    I think the Aberdeen staff must have been told to crack down on the coupons.

    There was no time delay under a £7, no TS long hair at except a couple of lone measly cheaper products. The only thing I could use facial till spits on were the sanctuary wipes.

    Hi...Awwwe sorry to hear about your bad days shopping. When that happens to me...stares/certain look or followed by S-security...i tell myself 'i am not stealing the goods'. The next day i decide i will go and face them as THE GLITCHES ARE THEIR DOING ...NOT MINE!!!!!
    Although, i have a weeee nervy as i walk through the boots door. lol lol

    Hope 2moro is a betr day for you !!!!:beer:

    Hmmmmmm... [Taps chin pensively]

    So if I - as a more mature lady :o - fill a shopping basket with glitches, add ONE pack of condoms only, pull out my vouchers (oo-er, missus!) and march boldly up to a till 'manned' by a lad who looks about sixteen...

    Will the embarrassment factor work in my favour? Will he be so freaked out by the fact that someone over 40 still {has sex} that he'll just scan my shopping as quickly as he can, without noticing the glitches..? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: (Yikes, once you mention 'condoms' in a post, it seems to fill up with double entendres! :o )

    Cunning plan; total naivety about the worldliness of today's youth; just plain evil; or worth a try? ;)
  • Damn - I've just bought some while it was on BOGOF aswell.
    Just don't use the 'Tingle' lube to remove your make up, lol! :rotfl:
    (((spoons)))
  • Woo! Somehow I had ended up on the worng page (have 2 windows open), lol! That was supposed to be in reply to a quote about a poster using lube as eye make up remover in an emergency but that's not on this page, even!

    I'm off to bed, lol. Nanight!

    *hangs head in shame and slopes off*

    What are the Birmingham stores like for clearance items and where would I find them? Thanks for your help Big bargain brummy xx
    Hiya,
    Birmingham are slightly stingy with the clearance - you really have to hunt! the big Boots high street one have some downstairs by the baby paying desk or sometimes up top floor by the end of shampoos right at back of shop towards the food area. Never really seen clerance in the Bullring one though. Is very hit and miss with both stores.
    I may have lupus but it doesnt make me useless! :rolleyes: I am a true believer in Karma, and am a typical cancerian. I have a hard outside, but am mushy on the inside.:o
