    Just a quick post to say hi to all the lovely Boots posters, old and new, and especially pollsdolls.

    Haven't been online for various reasons - having no internet access, holidays (didn't go anywhere btw), and recently another house flood that ruined a few ceilings, carpets and clothes, (but which missed my Boots stash completely :confused: ) Only a couple of posters know this but I sometimes feel panicky when I'm shopping and when it happens I have to get out of the shop and that's happened recently too, once when I was mid-conversation with Rubes (If you're reading this Rubes, sorry for dashing off the last time I saw you - I waited outside for a while but had to give up and go home. I've also lost your phone number - again. Can you text it to OH's phone number if you still have it pls?).

    I've tried for a couple of weeks to catch up on what's been happening in the threads with the glitches and have even managed to make use of a couple (OH did the hard work - no doubt he'll be getting even more ACM print outs for handbag dot com :D) so a big thanks to whoever found them and posted about them x Also, thanks to all those that have posted up their pictures - it made me realise that I wasn't the only Boots nutcase around ;)

    There were a few PM's that I left unanswered before I took my 'Boots sabbatical' so apologies to the lovely people who sent them - you know who you are :) and I'll try to reply to them all asap. I'm not sure if my usual email address is still active as it hasn't been used since June :o but if it is inactive I'll open a new one and send PM's to ask for any lost email adds if that's ok.

    pollsdolls, what can I say?

    You, probably more than anyone, knows that I'm not very good with words when it comes to illnesses, but it's suffice to say that reading your post knocked me sideways. I tried to reply to it but it would have taken up a full page. Other people have put into words what I wished I could (and more eloquently) so I sincerely pray that your results bring you nothing but good news. I think that some posters might think that you and I were grumpy old women at times ;) but if they could read some of the hilarious mails that you've sent, they'd think otherwise :D (I only have to see mushy peas, yorkshire pudding and mash and I'm in stitches :)) We all need a pollsdolls in our lives xx

    Rubes mentioned the sad events that happened to the mum from Liverpool ...(I'm so sorry but I've forgotten your full user name :( ) ... but my thoughts were with you, and still are. xxx

    Looking back in the older threads I noticed that you'd been going through a bad time yourself and I hope that you also return to full health - and soon. You're another lovely poster that goes out of their way to help people. Best wishes xx

    To get back on topic (whatever that is ;)) Rubes explained how the TS glitch worked. It worked a treat for OH (I daren't try it lol) as he got 2 x items for £1.01 Thankfully he did try it first as when I tried it came to £7.00 ....! I've left him to do the Bootsing since then but have ended up with about 20 TS products for curly hair :confused: I'm trying to pluck up the courage to ask him to return them as I have the straightest hair imaginable :D

    Sorry for the length of this 'quick' post :o I'll be back posting soon. Keep up the good work girls (and guys) and thanks again for any PMs and mails and to cpg for the threads.

    P.S. I noticed that some of you were getting the summer palette thingy for £9.50 (metallic case in a plastic sleeve?). These were on offer in a local store just after/before the Bank Holiday and if you bought the No7 P&P hand cream for £10.50 (or thereabouts) they were giving this away for free and you could use the pink till split so the price was only about £5.50 for the two. Without thinking, (because I'm still a ditz) and because I can't use the P&P, I only bought one lot but I'll check to see if it's still on when I next go in.and try to stock up in case anyone wants any.

    If .comloverlee is reading and is thinking of travelling to Bridlington again - it's not worth the travelling unless you need the Boots mag :) I plucked up the courage to go there yesterday and it was rubbish. Sod's law lol.

    Take care peeps. Cya soon xxx

    hiya'
    Yes you were supose to get a pinky as the 50% vouchers are manufacturers
    Does it say on your reciept "no7 voucher earned" ?
    as its supose to say that and sa takes pinky out of till and scans it :confused:

    Thanks for the support!

    no it doesn't say no7 voucher earned, just the skincare voucher listed, I even checked it at the time so i could argue my case! This makes me think that it only goes on the receipt once they've scanned it.
    As I said, I did the exact same transaction in Sheffield West Street Boots and got the pinkie as well!!

    I do feel better for getting it off my chest though....roll on another day, another coupon......
