Did another monster BOOTS today. Came away with lots of PINKS and WHITES, Mitchums and JK Files. Someone stop me. *** We are not committing fraud by taking advantage of these glitches are we? Somehow it feels wrong, not that it bothers me too much cos I'm off BOOTSing tomorrow too. Woohoo. *** Ignore the security guards, he probably wants your body! Just checking you out. LOL.

MITCHUM: I've now cracked the MITCHUM offer thanks to a honey that pointed it out yesterday. If you print a 50% off voucher and buy one of the MITCHUM roll ons, it works a treat. The roll on is £1.79. If you use the voucher, it knocks off £1.50 off (some kind of glitch), which means you get the roll on for 29p. Bargain or what!

Hi all, I read this sticky everyday nad Im amazed at the bargains you guys pick up from boots??

Are these sale/clearance items? How do u get the discounts & whats a pinky???

Soz if I sound stupid!!!

TIA x x x x x x x x x

No don;t worry...you'll soon get into the swing of it!

A "pinky" is the quick way for describing the current (elusive for me) no7 vouchers for £5 off. These are available if you spend £5 in store.

Cheap items can't be located ANYWHERE in a store lol. Try checking shelf labels. You'll find some items will be with normal items but the SEL (shelf edge label) has smaller writing. Other times its on special "clearance" stands. No7 stuff can be on its own "last chance" stands too.

HTH and happy bootsing

Oh no don't say that, perfumes back upto full price ! I bought a Dolce and Gabbana perfume yesterday for £8.75 (reduced from £35.00) and my best friend has asked me to get her one today .............................. has anyone managed to get reduced perfume today ? In Maidenhead ? or Marlow ? Please let me know as then I know which shop to try.

Thanks

Ok I went to Maidenhead Boots and all the sels were back upto full price ! (only ones reduced were Oscar La Rente (£7.00) and Ralph Lauren Style (about £8.00ish). Gutted as I really wanted to get my best friend the Dolce and Gabbana one I got yesterday, sel said £35.00 today (I paid £8.75 yesterday). It was same SA on perfume counter as yesterday and I said I couldn't believe the prices had gone up already (in one day). She was serving another SA who said, 'that happens sometimes', get offers for just one day .............................. but we know better don't we . Anyway told SA wanted the Dolce and Gabbana but not for £35.00. She scanned it and it went through at £9.50 (how does that work ? yesterday £8.75) ? Still a bargain so I grabbed one quickly (last one too) and paid (got pinkie and ts too !). I paid on main tills and noticed that the SA made a note of the perfume and price but she let me have it for £9.50. So maybe some perfumes are still going through reduced on tills and they make note of them, so the tills can be corrected. Might be worth getting the one you want scanned, in case you can still get a bargain.

Hope that helps someone.

Anyone know if there are still any reduced perfumes in Reading (Oracle) ? Skibster you seem to be local to Reading, seen any good perfume deals or good clearance items (btw where are the clearance stands in Reading ? (Oracle and Broad Street). Do they have any good reductions on swimwear too ? (would love a cossie for 75p as some of you have managed to get).

Thanks !
