Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 37 - Post your finds here

FINALLY got rid of my pinkies and N07 tillspits today and am now feeling that great sense of relief that some of you have already described!!

Bit dissapointed with my shops though. Took my stuff to the SS till to sneak through the 2 different vouchers, but put through one of the Ruby & Millie make up bags first, which came up at full price. Argh! Called the SA over but she couldnt override it, and had a bit of a go at me about using my vouchers on the SS, saying it's much easier to go to a normal till with vouchers (easier for them, not easier for me when I'm trying to get my last bargains for while!) Anyway so after that little mishap I went back downstairs and ended up putting my stuff through a normal till where the lady would only accept one pinky per transaction

Sooo I got:

Shop 1
Ruby and Millie long purplish make up bag: £4.25 (got all 3 now!)
Used 1 tillspit = free

Shop 2
new Mascara and gwp = £11.50
used 1 tillspit = £6.50

Shop 3
peacock gel eyeliner = £10.00
used 1 tillspit = £5.00

Shop 4
stay perfect eyeliner in gilt = £8.50
used 1 pinky = £3.50

Shop 5
Instant radiance concealer = £12.75
Stay perfect eyeliner in Jewel = £8.50
Stay perfect eyeliner in Sapphire = 342, so free
used 1 pinky = £16.25

So i spent a total of £28.25, £5.55 more than if I'd been able to use the SS till.

Oh well, just have to grin and bear it. Spent my points on some 342 Barry M dazzle dust and Collection 2000 Dazzle Me dust and glitter eyeliner after the recommendations on here!

One of the Barry M things i picked up says not to be used round the eyes, reckon they'd let me swap it seeing as it's all sealed up?

and finally, for Mrsbluebear, how do you get the Stay Perfect eyeliner off again....got 3 different colours on different eyes oops!!!

3 x Extreme length mascara @ £11.50
3 x Smokey Eyes Pallette free with above
Used No7 ts & No7 pinkie 342
Only paid £13.00 for the lot

Lisa did this shop which is a neat saving.

Thanks for the TD stash. In the end I bombed into local & blew them on mens instead as I ran out of time to do my planned shop.

What is No7 pinkie? and where can we get it? thank you in advance

I was just thinking ... they still have selected Oral B electric toothbrushes 1/2 price online. If that's instore, too, and you could find one of the toothbrushes that was originally 34.99 (now 17.49) you could use:

EB (electrical beauty) till spit
EB voucher (different barcode)
1500 points on Oral B over 30 pounds (PC)
Total to pay: 7.49

OR get 3 of the 12.97 ones (342) using all of the above vouchers, comes to 25.94, pay 15.94 after vouchers and get 1500 points back. Hmm, I like the top option better, lol!

Also noticed the new mascara on the No 7 counter although the eyeshadow pallettes were not on display...maybe that particular SA knows about the Tues night 'going thru for 0.00' glitch. Shame I didnt while I was there. Oh well, theres always next time.

What is this glitch? Is it because Tuesday-Wednesday is change over day for offers and vouchers?

Boots was giving the pinky out with a 5 pound spend through yesterday. Sorry, they have stopped giving them out (they don't expire until the 14th, and some of us saved a few).

I have an epilator which i really like, it can be used as an electric shaver too. Would you want an epilator, or just a shaver?

Just bought the remington perfection sensitive cordless today.

It said £19.99 on shelf, but came up at £39.99 at till. The SA honoured the price, and i got rid of some points.

Just did a 3 for 2 which included my mascara so got the eye palette free, also they had a pink bag left (free when you spend £20 on No7 the old offer) so because I had a couple of No7 things in my 3 for 2 it thought I had spent £20 on No7 so that went through 0.00. Then I had a pinkie to get £5.00 off also !!!! I am new at this but I seem to have a big bag of goodies now for little outlay. But just thought I would point out that the pink bags are still going through 0.00 if you can find any left anywhere.

oh think just a shaver too scared of the old epilator!!

Just had a thought, if the Lynx are still going through at 2 for £4, does that mean we can now get 6 boxes for £8?

Just been instore , and the lynx 2 for £4 sign has been changed, and now says that it does not include lynx 3 duo packs.

Looks like the cat is out of the bag.
