    Good Evening Glasgow BOOTSERS,

    I was in St.Enoch Centre & done the same above & paid the same & managed to use the 500 point coupon for P&P@ the self service tills downstairs.
    Got another pinkie back & I think this is a lovely gwp.
    My 2nd buy was :
    2x No7 Facial sun protection
    1x gwp
    handed over pinky / 500p points coupon
    Only £5.50 to pay
    Gave me another pinky.

    could have kept on doing this but had DS(Teenager) with me who couldn't understand why i was printing coupons from acm & not using them immediately & he asked all this in a very loud VOICE !!!!!!!!!
    One of those 'i wish the ground would open up & swallow HIM moments.
    Who'd have kids is what I sometimes ask myself.

    Goodnight all.

    hi

    can you tell me please did your 500 point voucher beep

    and was it the 2x glossy locks and 2 lip and eye screen you bought

    Does anybody know if DKNY Be Delicious will be reduced over the weekend please? I'm eager to get one of the Ruby & Millie bags too but I'm not sure which voucher to use.

    I'd also still be grateful for any advice on my earlier post here too: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=13565473&postcount=2250

    Thanks.

    Babafette, don't sweat over £0.50 in points. Perhaps the person at the store exagerated when they said when the machine was fixed but this is a minor detail. I am sure no one thinks you were lying.
    There was a time I kept reading how people would call CS with complaints and be awarded loads of points for minor things. The few times I called no one ever gave me any points. EVER!! and I've had a couple of big complaints. On the other hand, once someone reported that CS had insinuated she was always calling them.
    To make up for this, make sure you get loads of freebies and glitches from Mr B next time you're in store. ;)

    Dear Pollsdolls, you've given us a much needed pause for reflexion. What you wrote was lovely and, I am sure, we are all grateful that you shared with us your thoughts and wisdom. We will all be waiting for news from you to be posted here soon.

    Hi hun, BigBargainBrummy is looking out for a brown/black mascara...but if you spotted another she would love anyway! If your local has any more black, cream, or both bags I'd be ever so chuffed!

    Mum is not over till the pinkies run out...she has good timing though...would cost me a fortune if not!

    Your a star ;)

    My god, words are literally failing me here.... I just, umm, i just want to hug you, and make it all better for you!!!
    I'm just still so very shocked and upset by your post... c'mon, sort it out SK! :o

    Polly, I would very much like to echo a lot of the lovely messages you have already received so far. I also want you to know you are sooo tremendously admired and respected by all who know you on here.
    You write so justly about your thoughts and feelings and have, without a doubt, left us a lot to think about in life, thank you so, so much.
    Please know you are very much loved and thought about. I have had the pleasure of talking to you off this board, and you have left an impression on me. You have always been so kind, appreciative, complementative, witty and well just wonderful to talk too. But then again,...that's you Polly....a wonderful being :A
    ~ To the world you may be just one person, but to one person
    you may be the world ~
    Chin up sweetie.

    All my thoughts and prayers are with you and yours at this devastating time. :( Please let me know if i can help with anything. Anything at all.
    Sending you all my love and strength,
    Sonia

    Thanks.

    I bought DKNY Red Delicious on Thursday reduced to £13.50 in my local Boots (Ramsgate, Kent). Went back yesterday to buy another and they had put that and Marc Jacobs Daisy back up to full price!!!! SA said that they had been told there was a mistake and certain perfumes had to be put back to full price. She scanned a bottle of Delicious for me and low and behold full price again. May not be everywhere so worth checking even if the SEL says full price. Hope you find one reduced.

    Polls Dolls I dont know you, but have read your post and Im so sorry to hear the tough time youre having. You seem like a very strong lady with lots of wisdom. Thinking of you and wishing you well for this difficult time.

    Can't help on the perfume question. On this one:

    Hello all, :hello:I'm just after a bit of advice really. The single Advantage Card machine (there used to be two) in my local Boots store has been broken for over a month so I have avoided doing any big shops; it was finally fixed on Wednesday morning, but by the time I went to use it at about 11.30am it was broken again and the SA was unable to help. I spent just over £34 in my transaction and was obviously unable to use any total spend vouchers.

    I emailed CS to complain and the response was that someone in store had confirmed the machine was working that morning and that there has only ever been one machine in my store. I was awarded 200 points, but I am feeling a bit peeved because I would have got 250 points for a £30+ spend if the machine had been working and the implication seems to be that I am lying. Should I respond to the email again or am I just reading too much into it because I'm having a cr*p day? :confused:

    Thanks.
    I don't think they are necessarily implying that you're lying, and if they are, why let it continue to bug you? There's really nothing more you can do about it. Calling them back would achieve nothing, except that you want to prove to them the ACM was broken. And it's impossible to prove if the SA was wrong or lied, and even if you did prove it, it would gain you nothing except them saying "Um, ok, it was broken. Can we help you with anything else?" The only real solution is to have a little gripe to other Bootsers, then let it go. This is fairly minor in the laundry list of bad experiences people have had at Boots and probably isn't something that continued complaints would solve in any way that brings you satisfaction. At least you did get 200 points, so try not to dwell on the rest. :)
