  • Thankyou ladyluck, wombling means picking up till splits at the tills, i picked some of the no7 and facial ones at the ss up, that had fallen behind the bags.

    when i do wombling at ss tills i let all my receipts fall out and after ive done all my transactions, i gather the whole lot from behind the bags and put in my shopping. have never been in trouble for this.
    and moneysaver, i dont think anyone at boots will remember you for wombling. you could try using another till, pharmacy or photo counter, they are always more friendly.

    Hey chums and chumesses. I did another massive Boots session yesterday. Did the TS thing x 3 and got a collection of new vouchers. Must pop in tomorrow to use the new White and Pink vouchers I have now accumulated. This is so addictive. *** Just wanted to say a *H*U*G*E* THANK YOU to everyone that has posted about the Jemma Kidd nail file glitch and the TS one too. Thanks to you guys my Mom, sisters, sister in law and neice are never going to be out of shampoo and nail files. Thanks so much. Plus I have collected loads of extra points from the Time Delay thing.

    Only told the SA's to keep them friendly! I find it useful to get on the right side of them !

    Depends on the SA...until yesterday I would never have told an SA anything in my local as they are not exactaly friendly. However, yesterday I had a fab new SA. She was really happy about my bargains(was happy she accidently scanned 8 mitchum not 5, getting me £4.50 more off my shopping) and said that her and her mum are terrible for getting the most out of boots. So if she ever asks me something in the future I would 100% definately share the reasoning behind a glitch with her. The others can swivel in there though :rotfl:
  • in all honesty i have never heard of this happening before.
    i dont work in a massive store, so find it difficult to believe that staff at meadowhall would even spot you doing it?

    i wouldnt think there would be any problems if you pick a voucher up from the baskets outside of the store, one thats just been left. or if you spotted a voucher on the floor outside the store.

    however... if it was in store, around a visible check-out area & amongst other customers i can see why the staff would have a problem with you doing this.

    at the end of the day its up to you, the staff may not remember you.
    but then again, they might & you are left with the embarassing situation in which you are asked to leave the store.
    I've picked them up in the store before. What I usually do is ask the nearest SA if they mind if I do it.

    Whilst I've had some bemused looks, they've always been happy for me to do it. The other person to ask might be the security guard. Though I'm not greatly sure I want to draw attention to myself. I suppose I'd rather he viewed me as friendly and checking stuff than surreptitious!

    Enjoy your wombling
    So many glitches, so little time...

  • Mrs BB I have speed read quite a bit but didn't see if you had sorted out your change situation from yesterday?? (soz if you have already posted) Did you get it sorted?
    This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.

  • I managed to do the TS glitch at Meadowhall today, although it cost around £2. One of the most expensive items available in the long hair range was straightening balm at £4.99.I figured I would probably use that, as well as my choice of shampoo, so not a bad deal.

    I went in full of confidence today, armed with Td points voucher, Ts voucher etc and then realised I had forgotten my bloomin advantage card, but can probably have the points added on later.

    There are still plenty of mags at Meadowhall, but I am having trouble getting the olay handcream. There are also some great speedo swimsuits for £5-6- a bargain!
