Omg, Apologise in advance for the long post just got back from my boots expedition to find elusive mirrors, i`m still shaking & on 20th ciggy of the day (does this qualify me as a proper bootser now lol)
Fort b/ham only 1 left on shelf so bought instead
Clinique DDML £15.00
Clinique Cl Lotion £14.00
Clinique Liquid Soap £13.00
Total £42.00
Used £30 vouchers I won
Paid £12 cash, got back 800pts wyb 3 C, 750pts wyb 2 C, 300pts wys £30 total points 1850
Tamworth store had 2 mirrors behind No 7 counter that a customer was coming back for, said if I wanted to wait I could have if didn`t turn up, said ok but left empty handed
Came home very upset I had no mirrors so thought I would try a small store, there were 3 on the shelf but SEL £39.99 got sa to price check £19.99 grabbed others quick, sa nearly had heart attack when price was £19.99 called the manager over neither could understand it, in the mean time the queue is getting longer behind me and Im about to have panic attack, manager eventually said if that`s the price it say`s then sell them at that, asked for my cards so slipped in £5 off voucher & 250pts prescription service at which point she threw them at me and said I might as well have give them to you, oh and can I keep your receipt to query this!!!!!
So got 3 mirrors £14.98, saved £104.99, 386pts and a fragrance voucher!!!!!!!
Huge Thank You To You All

hi, just got back from Mr B. When I first got three mirrors to the till(should go to the normal ones not the electrical counter, however, a staff was helping me carry them and lead me to the electrical counter, so what I could do was following her),then I handed over the £5 voucher to the SA there, the till beeped, the SA said: sorry it won't work, I said please try as my friend just bought them and used the voucher. He looked at the voucher, pointed out that it cannot be used in conjuction with any other offer--as I already had the offer of "342". So I thought there was something I did wrong, then went off to get 3x pedicure kits, got back the SA just simply refuse to try the voucher for me and another one came along said that No7 is not on the list!( I didn't realise that), I said but my friend bought the mirrors with voucher, the SA said:" she must only bought one, that how it will work,not three". Anyway, too tired to argue, paid £35.83(£19.99 for 3 x mirrors, £7.49 for 3x pedicure kits, plus a few Sanctury minitures), total points: 502---252 points received(don't know how, should it be140?) ,250 for over £30.
I would like to have a foot spa for my mum, but both of my local stores don't have them(they all said that they have never seen one before). Could someone please let me know, is there a store in south-west London area have No7 foot spa? I am also thinking to swap it in case I can't get one anywhere, if someone would like to have a mirror but can't get hold of one, the I am happy to swap a mirror for a foot spa(however, due to the weight, it will be better if it is from someone not that far away). Thanks.0 -

I know this may be a long shot, but does anyone happen to have a 'normal' £5 off electrical voucher? The one you get at manned tills, and not an SS till one.
I am desperately after one to be sent out today and can send something gorg in return for your loveliness and kindness, umm other vouchers, oral B/half price expert etc? Perhaps a xmas catalogue? lol
Sorry for having to ask on here, feel pretty embarrased, but need one by tomorrow morn so would need it posting out asap.
Heres hopingand sorry again for the interuption guys, will delete if offends.

I went to Reading Oracle last night and there were tons of No 7 stuff. I left with 3 x mirrors for £14.99 used the £5 off voucher too which at first she SA said hadn't worked so gave back to me, then realised it had so took it back! Thanks for this glitch, some great pressies there. Left about 12 mirrors, a few manicure sets, massagers, lash curlers and trimmers so fill your boots!
Thanks for this great glitch!:j :T0 -

i don't want it to 'kick off' in here or anywhere.will keep mouth shut and just lurk i think
It was probably the lurkers that cleared them all out! :mad:0 -
No, she didn't do anything wrong in this transaction, but it they got to looking into your account and saw things in past transactions -- like loads of mags in one month or other cards at the same address in PC, etc (she may not have any of this, but there may be something that stands out), it could cause a problem. It's never a good thing for Boots to examine your card, even if the transaction that spurred it isn't a worry. But it sounds like she wisely kept the receipt (good call, lol!).
Never a good idea for the Boots Profit Protection Group to get involved. :eek:This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
