    I had a great day of bootsing but a mixed day of SA's. I did 2 hours of bootsing and will detail my transactions with the time stamp... Watch me go....

    4.05pm
    4 x P&P Glossy Locks (on BOGOF and 1/2 price)
    2 x pre holiday tan treatment (BOGOF & 1/2 price)
    Total 10.26 (But till saw over £20 so got No.7 GWP)
    Used pinky = 5.26 to pay
    and also got 500 points for 2 x protect and perfect items

    4.09pm

    17 single eyeshadow reduced to 1.45
    free eye dazzle
    lavender gift set (was £5) 1.25
    Total 5.20/31.20 (another 6 pinkies and facial ts)
    (I know this amount may sound extreme but I run kids pamper parties and this will revamp my makeover box)

    4.40pm
    Black swimsuit (was £24) for £6 (another pinky and facial)

    Then I got in the car and drove to Boots number 2
    17.13
    TD cleanser - 4.49/free with till split and also got 200 points
    17.13
    TD Exfoliator -4.49/free with till split and also got 200 points

    Then I got in the car and drove to Boots number 3

    So 2 hours work/4 boots stores ( i went to one and it had nothing)/ I am now left with 11 spits and pinkies.

    Oh and I am EXHAUSTED tonight. I now have a whole box full of bits and bobs for Christmas and my holiday in October. I feel I may soon be worthy of submitting a photo!

    Hi passion8, lovely to see you back!
    I'm not getting out much, and my local Boots is rubbish, no mags, no TS long hair, no Jemma Kidd, NO CHOCCIE BUTTONS, nothing to grab with the ts and pinkies, and when I bought 2xtan maintainers on BOGOF (not half price!) I was asked if I had a voucher to use, and when I said yes, I had the gwp taken off me! Huh!
    Hoping to get away to a 'real' Boots before my lovely vouchers/ts/pinkies expire...... I WANT that gwp!:rolleyes2
    Have you seen scorpiokitten's wondrous hoard?!!!! The first thing I thought when I saw those juicy photies was, "I wish my local Boots had half her stock!!!!!!"

    Ahh.... oh Wise Ones......I do have a question......
    The Mitchum vouchers. My local do have Mitchum, and I'm enough of a masochist to try some of Broclo's best 50%ers - but I only have a black printer. When I say, 'No, they're not photocopies, I printed them off the website', does anyone know where they really did come from?:rotfl: originally? Would be nice to have some facts to back 'em up!

    They're from handbag.com I think..... hang on.......

    Yes, here: http://www.handbag.com/lifestyle/Mitchums-Mums-Summer-Guide/special :)

    Thanks Sarah, will defo try this on Friday! Cheers. x
  • I know people have been complaining about SA's but I had the manager of my local today being an absolute star! put through 12 seperate transactions for me one after another so i could get the most pinkies and till spits. When anything beeped she put it through manually. She said that'll have to come back to teach her about the best way to use her vouchers!
    But for every gem there is a dragon. In my final store the No. 7 lady was horrid. I had been waiting for some No.7 advice for a while and got ignored. So ended asking someone else. Then I started queuing 5 minutes before the store shut. The woman in front of me wanted some till thing sorted so toko a while and so she didt get to serve me till 6pm she huffed and puffed, refused one of my vouchers, slammed my AC back on the counter, tutted when I asked to pay but card 'put ya pin in' no pleases or thank yous. She was finished with me at 6.02pm. Her huffing has really put a downer on my day.
    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

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Some TD mens skincare stuff for £4.49, £4.99 and £5.49 in Heswall at lunchtime today. Sorry can't remember what it was just that it was around £5. There wasn't a lot but certainly 3 or 4 of each.

    NO CHOCCIE BUTTONS, quote]


    I bought two packs of Buttons tonight, expecting to pay 75p for both but NO! 79p each .... offer/glitch seems to have ended.

    But for anyone who likes 'choccie' (:rolleyes: ) I saw some reduced boxes of Lily O'Briens chocs for £2.75 in Woolworths today - sorry, don't know original price but the boxes were about 8" square .... mmmmm!

    Also, Mrs Bluebear - S*perdr*g do NUS student discount - 10% off when you spend over £10 (but I know you wouldn't dare!)
