    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 bought 6 pairs of Aristoc Velvet touch tights today, reduced from £5 to £1.25. There are big signs up advertising all hosiery on 342, but these went through with no reduction. I queried this with the nice no7 sa, explaining that when I had bought the same tights in charcoal on Friday, the 342 had been applied. As there were no obvious notices excluding reduced items, she agreed to put through 2 pairs for free. BTW, there are no reduced stickers on these, this is the price they go through the till at.

    Anyway, when I got back to the office, I looked at my receipt from the other day, and saw that the reduction had not been applied (I really thought it had, otherwise I would not have said so - I would have still requested the 342). I rang CS and they said I had to go back to store with my receipt and speak to a manager. I will have to go back tomorrow and sort this out.

    I bought socks and tights last week. 3 4 2 signs still up, but they didn't go through at 3 4 2. They were boots brand too! I asked several SAs, but non of them knew if the offer was still on and the manager wasn't around so I just paid up and left. They were all reduced though, so it kind of made up for missing the 3 4 2 offer:)

    ahh thats nice of you P~M~P... well done x
  • Made the SA chuckle today....

    Went in with the intention of getting rid of 2 till spits, so grabbed 2 TD wipes, wandered over and saw the new/ish Sanctuary range on 3 4 2, got 3 shower/body wash type things.

    Grabbed a new S & G shower gel too, with as needed one - last one was rinsed clean to go in my bath :rotfl:

    Realised I would get 2 more tillspits, so went back and (as there were plenty ) grabbed 2 more TD wipes.

    Said to SA, I want to split my transactions, so she starts rootling through and says, "if you do each sanctuary thing separately, you will get 4 sets of vouchers". No, I say, thats on 3 4 2 so must be together. So she scans my chosen items :D and give me a till spit&no 7. Repeats with the S&G gel, and gives me another till spit/no 7.

    I then give her back the 2 tillspits and the other 2 TD wipes I had already had in my basket + the vouchers for 200 points wyb TD!

    She starts laughing and says "you are soooo organised with this!!" ;)

    Are the Botanics gloves on clearance, or is that just the price under the 1/3 off sale? What section are they in (Botanics is in about 5 places in my local stores!).

    these were on a clearance stand near the main tills in the Ayr branch. they were reduced to £1.75 and went through at £1.16. I only got 2 packs as I was trying not to go over a fiver as I still had loads of vouchers at the time. HTH

    btw I couldnt see any on the actual Botanics sections, or a SEL as I was trying to find out how much they were origionally.

    Thanks for that idea. :T
    Only got one of those eyeshadows the other day for my daughter too! :rolleyes: I get certain combo's stuck in my little mind and then can't see the wood for the trees.

    I did 2 x the above, and apparently, I got really nice colours too. Get me! Well that's what the NO 7 SA said. I was like "love schtum, just put them through will you, I got more BOOTSing to do"! *** Used my last 3 PINKS on those NO 7 Moisturising Gloves. Didn't find anything good reduced or any TS, so walked on out. *** I'm all out of PINKS and WHITES now, and boy, am I pleased! Hope you guys manage to use your WHITES, TS and TD 200 POINTS by tomorrow as I think that's when they run out. Be good and enjoy.
  • I had a lovely shop today, in Weston-super-Mare (last day working there boo)
    Meal deal 2.99

  • Next I went to the store on Oxford Street between Tottenham Ct Rd and Oxford Circus (the one opposite the Plaza centre). I really got lucky here. They had a whole rack of JK nail files!!! When I took a couple to the ss tills, they only went and scanned at £1 each instead of £2!!!

    snipped

    Has anyone else found JK files at this price?

    Cheers

    Im really disappointed, the SA in Boots Silverburn wouldnt let me have the R&M mirror and red pouch thingy with a pinkie, as it is part of mix and match, I told her my friend got 2 but she wasnt having it. :confused: this was my last pinkie (kindly sent by Greenishfingers) I thought it would be a nice xmas gift for my sis. oh well just have to try somewhere else.

    Can anyone tell me what the No7 mascara and GWP promo is? is it worth keeping said pinkie?

    Flowerscotland Silverburn didnt have any TD under a fiver or olay stuff, but the still have the TD gradual tan, so that would be 50p, just incase you head there tomorrow. HTH oh and GOOD LUCK :T
