  • Not sure if you are aware but the £3 little walkers coupons work on all huggies nappies I got some superdrys £5.98 with 25% free for £2.98 did this 4 times and got 4 sets of vouchers. I told SA each time that "I was told if it scans they can be used for any HUggies" all 4 SA's put them through. Also the metrocentre store are giving printed till slips instead of pinkies so they cannot run out.

    VERY ink intensive for 1 voucher, I've done 4 a page of just the coupon itself which uses the same ink as 1 original. If you want it (or anyone does) email me [EMAIL="broclo@hotmail.co.uk"]broclo@hotmail.co.uk[/EMAIL] (junk email) with ELS as the title :)

    Also, as an ink-free alternative, just ask for a sample at any Estee Lauder counter. That's what the Boots EL lady told me to do Saturday (they were out of samples); she said it's a promotion and all EL counters are giving them out, no voucher needed. :)

    Was this the same store that always hassles you, or a different one? Because if it's the same one, it sounds like the SAs have decided you are a "troublemaker" and enjoy bullying you. That's a hard one to combat when you're trying to do glitches and such. You may want to avoid that store, even though it's not fair to you. Either that or find a Bootsing buddy to go in and do the same transactions you are to see if they are allowed it when you're not, maybe that would help when you call to complain?

    i also find that going to boots with someone makes the s/a s alittle nicer . even the ones on the beauty counters. i recently got served by a lady on the dior counter, transaction didnt go well and she had to go borrow someones key to overide till or something like that. i wasnt buying anything from her counter but she was more than happy to serve me/ us. so if the staff are funny with you, i would go in with someone.

    i wish i was up with you ladies, i cant keep up with this thread and the bargains ! i dont know how you get all these glitches and vouchers, im missing out somewhere but i shall keep looking and try to learn. im lucky i managed to get some reduces perfume/aftershave last week but was gutted on saturday when i went to buy some for my b'day and all were full price again, my previous ones were all presents ! still, i managed to get 2 handcreams today will my spit and had loads of olay wipes for first time. they eye reducing wrinkle cream is very good for 99p and the gradual tan moisturiser for face at 50p was a bargain

    Went to Sedley Place today hoping to get some baby stuff reduced... loads of pushchairs on display at full price but all baby sheets had gone... just those little writing labels on the shelf :(
    I did manage to get 2x teletubby moving tv in belly toys for DS and some KNEX seeing as toys were 342 and reduced!
    Anyway, I got a No7 till spit with my purchases on a manned till, so maybe the SS till shops are giving out TS instead of pinkies on their manned tills? SA's were v nice and took away the bulky packaging from the teletubbies!

    Also, went into the Bond St Station branch which was pants and then decided to try to use some vouchers at Kew. Wasn't very successful as there wasn't much TD left under £5, so decided I'd use some pinkies on suncare which was 1/2 price and bogof. Also got myself a bottle of Davidoff Freeze Me for £6.xx.

    All buggies, bar a full price one, gone in Kew but loads of No7 Suncare left. Also 2 TS serums, and lots of TB vanity cases (with no price tho). There were also a few of the floral/clear boots make up bags on sale, too.

    I have a TB vanity case I bought last week, which I don't really need so PM me if you want it for cost price + postage. Sorry, if I don't reply to PM str8 away but I've got some papers to mark for 2moro! I h8 introductory tests for 6th formers...tsk.

    Also, is there an offer on No7 wipes due out before the pinky expires please?

    Yes, No7 goes on sale 3 for 2 on Wednesday, and the voucher is good until Sunday. This is most helpful if you have both a No7 pink voucher and a No7 white till spit (they work together). The wipes would come to £13 for three packs, and the two different vouchers would take £10 off and make it £3 pounds (£1 each).

    If you only had a pink voucher to use, the total would come to £8 (about £2.66 each). In that case, it would be cheaper to just use one pinky on one pack of wipes and pay £1.50 (unless you were trying to get as many wipes as you could using just one pinky, in which case £2.66 each is a better deal than paying full price!).

    Boots sensitive washing up gloves are the only ones I do not get a reaction to, they are cotton lined :) At the moment they are down from £1.69 to £1.35, but with the Health Club discount they work out 67p :)

    Several of us have been told that we can use only one product per voucher
