I don't normally get involved in these kind of things but felt that i must comment on this.
I was a lurker on this thread for quite a while, mainly because i didn't have any glitches or codes to share! (not very lucky me).
I have contributed where i think i can help or advise.
You really can't lump all the lurkers together, i for one have never felt the need to got out and purchase a ton of stuff in boots just to get something for nothing or loads of points (which boots get back in the long run) I use this forum and this site to do what it was purely set up to do..... save money.
hope i don't upset anyone

Hi charley pink

I've edited my post to say 'majority' of lurkers ...... I sometimes type things but they don't come out the way I want to say them (think we're all guilty of that sometimes !) so I apologise if I've upset anyone. :grouphug:

There's nothing wrong with lurking, but something wrong when people don't share and are greedy !

Possible glitch? (Not tried yet !!!)

Ok guys n gals ! Have just popped to my local to try the 17 email voucher combo and I think there 'could' be a possible glitch although I've not tried it - I might pop back later once shift change has happened !

I'll start by telling you what I bought - it might make it easier to explain what I think could happen.

17 Trio Eyeshadow - £4.99 (thought this was £2.50 ! lol never mind :rolleyes: )
17 Sheer moisture lipstick - £0.00 (used email voucher)
17 Eye Dazzle - £0.00 (free wys £3 on 17 - still active in my store !)
17 Liquid Eyelinger - £3.79
17 Trio Eyeshadow - £2.50
17 PD eyeliner - £0.00 (free on 342)

Total was £11-odd and saved £10-odd. (Will be going up for Xmas for DDs 1 and 2 so not money wasted trying to find a glitch )




So, I'm thinking ...........

Buy 1 Sheer Moisture lipstick (the email voucher one)
Buy 2 Eye dazzle

Possibly could take off one of the eye dazzles as on 342, then take the other one off as it's free wys £3 (the lipstick) and then hand over the lipstick voucher to have tht taken off to??? You might like to disguise this with other goods if you are going to try it !

Damn,I wish I had worked this out in the store instead of in the car on the way home ! lol

Just to clarify, I haven't done this and it may not work, but there's a small chance that it would !!?? Maybe some of the expert bootsers could clarify if they think it would work too - or if they can see a flaw in my plan ! lol

Also, the voucher did not scan, had to be entered manually. Did have the 'cannot be used' excuse but I asked SA to try and she did and it went through so fill your boots ladies ! lol

Will report back as soon as I can get there after shift change and I know that it works !

HTH xx

Morning all!
Think I may pop out myself and try this in a bit - if they say anything, I'll just act dumb, shouldn't be too difficult...lol.
WIll let you all know how I get on xx

Firstly, I just wanted to take the time to reply to multiple posts...I won't quote as there are a few...there's a lot of people complaining about 'unwanted chat' and 'too many' pics. So I thought I would hold my hands up, and say I'm guessing a lot of the 'too many' pics comments are aimed, indirectly at people like me. I have been posting, at people's request, and also for everyone to enjoy make up pics - all with directions and pics, which I thought the majority of people enjoyed. This is obviously not the case, and I for one feel foolish for wasting my time, doing the make up, taking the pics, posting directions and generally trying to help people.

I shall stop this from now on...and I will also stop my goodnight pics too, as I suppose these are unwanted and unneeded.

Right, back to boots....(I'll keep it related shall I, don't wanna get shot down by the correct post police :-p) does anyone know if there are any offers in store for gilette venus breeze razor replacements

Morning all - looks like I missed a lot last night. I was out in London to see We Will Rock You, which was great fun, and then when we got off the bus back in Oxford, I had a flat tyre Anyway, Just popped in to say TTFN as I'm off to Crete very shortly for a week of peace and quiet by the pool/beach and after the week I've had, boy do I need it!!

Hoping to spend some points at Gatwick today... (see, cleverly keeping it on topic!!)

Have a great week and I'll be checking in again next weekend!

Please don't shoot me if it doesn't work ! lol

I dare not go back and try (getting to be quite a regular face in my local and want to keep a bit of a low profile !)

We're off out to our local town show later so I can't even get to a bigger boots to try !

But, signs were definitely up saying free eye dazzle so it could still be on in your store !

I don't feel it's your pictures that are the problem, MrsBB. It's when everyone includes them in their "thanks" quote to you and you get the same picture(s) popping up eight or ten times. For folk on slower dial-up that just makes the site impossibly slow. All that's needed is for folk not to include your pictures in their quotes...after all there's a link back to the original pictures in your quote name.
