  • Hi all!

    I've turned into a bootser - no longer a lurker! I started off 2 weeks back with £8 worth of points and wanted to make up some hampers for xmas and get enough points for some benefit and I currently have £38.50 in points and nearly there with the hampers! so THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

    I want the NC free bag WYS over £8. There are lots of reduced NC lipglosses in clearance - will this work automatically? it is handwritten stickers

    also (someone asked earlier) do you get the till/no 7 vouchers if you buy stamps?
    I miss using my infinite coupons at Tesco!
    2010 was the worst year ever :(
    But 2011 so far has been a lot of fun! :j

    If one of the items is from the Long Hair range, you pay £7 - cost of that item. So a shampoo or conditioner is £4.49 from the Long Hair range, you pay £7-£4.49. You can pick up any second item you want from TS, even really expensive, but that is irrelevant. The price you pay is dicated by the free item's price, which is the Long Hair product.

    It's easy to remember: 2 items are £7. The coupon says FREE LONG hair product, so that's the one you get deduced from the £7.


    Gals, I was just checking CPG's post and I don't think it is phrased correctly, or am I seeing something wrong? (I only got 1 Long Hair termal wraps + 1 shampoo / 1 Long wrap + glosser, so my experience is very limited compared to most of you):

    TS is currently on 2 for £7 and if you use the voucher from the mag to get a free product you can get 2 products for as little s 1p.
    TS Long Hair Shampoo + TS serum 1p to pay
    TS long Hair Shampoo + TS Rejuv condit £1.01 to pay

    It seems to imply you have to get a long hair shampoo as well... In the beginning no one was sure of this transaction and this may have been the first successful attempts, but there is no need to the other item to be from the long range. Perhaps this is why so many people are confused by this glitch. Can someone people confirm this?

    :beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:

    Thanks hun!! Yup I am easily confused....and as I have not been bootsing for ages I get scared of the till bleeping! Whereas back in the days I could handle handing in coupon after coupon!

    Ok so one product has to be from the long hair range and the second product can be from anywhere?

    So its best to pick up a really expensive long hair product to bring the cost down the most right? :confused:
    All men hear is blah, blah, blah, blah, SEX, blah, blah, blah, FOOD, blah, blah, blah, BEER:wall:

    Hi all, hope i'm posting in the right place, have been a bootster before I even realised that I wasn't the only one! Anyway, currently have 16820 points that have been building up for a while (thanks mostly to a 2 year old and bump that's due in 2 weeks) and this morning my hairdrier went capput. Am planning on going down to boots this afternoon to spend some points on a replacement hairdrier and am looking for any recommendations, have got long highlighted not particularly thick (sob) hair.

    Also does anyone know if you still get tillspits paying with points?

    Many thanks x
