I keep seeing offers for members of the HC in postings, and I wondered if somebody could tell me how you receive these offers.

I signed up to the HC using the instore machine the other day. Does this mean I will automatically receive discounts?

Many thanks.

The HC can be a bit hit and miss sometimes squidgeum. For whatever reason I sometimes have to have mine reactivated, but if you take your AC to a friendly SA, they can tell you if you're a member. If you are, then the discounts are automatic. (Should add that they should be, but it's always best to double check your receipts)

I felt a bit wierd when people were talking about Facebook. I don't know anything about Facebook, but it seems there is an alternative 'secret' Boots community on there. Or can anyone go on, like on here ? Or is it invitation only ? And I'm not sure why the person who put the link to Facebook was called "malicious" if it is an open place for everyone to go on ? If it's an 'open for everyone place' then why is link not on first page of this thread ? I'm confused <paranoid red blush face> !

You need to sign up with facebook, then request to be a member of this group http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=20487713699&ref=ts and include your MSE username.

Nothing is secret and it is open to everyone, not much is happening over there, just putting faces to MSE ID's etc

I have asked CPG if she would pop a link to the group on the first post, which she may consider, but she is busy for a few days.

Regarding the comment someone made, a lot of people atleast found it 'odd', but a bit of a hard one to explain why that was, but hey it is another day so easier to forget about it lol

Can anyone tell me when you get the points - when you buy the gift vouchers or when you spend them?

Many Thanks

The other thing that annoys me a little bit is when all ebayers are labelled as if they are the scum of the earth. I don't think things are as black and white as that. For some people ebay is a way to feed their kids or buy them clothes. For each ebay trader who buys hundreds of items so no-one else can benefit, there are a lot more mums selling bits and pieces to make a few extra pounds for a few treats for their kids.

I couldn't get my head around why that poster was called malicious either, but it made me lol for some reason. Facebook is for anyone that wants to join afaik, but looking at it from that link, it's not for me (and probably not for you) if so much information can be gleaned from it.

Have to agree about eBayers too. I've never sold a thing on eBay, but if I was ever skint, that's where I'd try to raise some money.

Some people might be stuck in the middle with some glitches imo, as they're not only eBayers but regular contributors to these threads, so I think there's a danger that they could be discriminated against.

Anyway, let's hope that this a "Happy happy happy hou, happy hou, happy hou" today

Just wanted to say thanks for all the posted offers. I dont always get on here to post anyglitches, dont think im clever enough or brave enough to try out/start one on my own. I always thank the original poster.

Money is very very tight at the mo, and off topic ( Hotpoint have a factory returns shop in Peterborough for about 1/2 price white goods - PM for details). I have been saveing for nearly 5 weeks to get a tumble dryer so bootsing has had to be sort of stopped, although i did use my points to get the new N7 smokey eyes and mascara - gone into the beauty box im doing for DD whos getting ready to start collage in the next few weeks - delayed due to spinal op. Many thanks to everyone who wished her well - was very tearful 8 1/2 hr op but she now stands nearly 3 inches taller and has changed shape from a size 12 to size 8.

I personally think the thread is very friendly - Many people kindly swapped/sold there excessive nail file collections from the previous glitch to me, for DD to use in collage. These are people ive never met, so to be able to trade with relative strangers is amazing.

I do have some vouchers to spare - please PM if you NEED them, could swap??

Thanks Broclo. Will sign up soon, but will probably remain anonymous on there. Is that wierd ? It's just I come from a relatively small town and don't want to be 'known' as a Bootser. Oh my goodness - everyone on there looks so young and glam - I need some urgent [STRIKE]surgery[/STRIKE] Protect & Perfect .........
