Me being the one who found the Johnsons 1p stuff left me quite annoyed today! But i'm pleased to see lots of people have gotten away with it.

Went in to my local where I hadn't bought any yet. Took 3 to the counter along with other bits and bobs. When the SA's scanned the Johnsons, she looked at the computer screen and said 'this can't be right, where did you get it? It's coming up as a link save which means it's a free gift - i'll go and talk to someone' When she same back, I was told it was supposed to be a free gift with something so I wasn't allowed it for 1p and had to pay 99p. As it was too early in the morning I didn't query any of it and didn't even leave it. :mad: I wish i'd of asked exactly what it was free with.....

On the plus side. I got loads of lovely make up online for £55 with £25 of points back AND my brother paid as it is my 18th next week

the johnsons top to toe had a SEL of 1p in my local yesterday....empty shelves though

Hmmmm, went instore today and bought Lemsip Sinus tablets 74p (just in case :rolleyes: , I can't go and not buy:eek: ), no Johnson's (although 1p SEL), price checked huggies box - full price :mad: and very rude SA who asked "Isn't there a label out?" felt like saying "yeah but doesn't mean that's the price!"

The Boots Sensitive range including laundry products are half price with Health Club membership, if you order them online then there is currently an additional 20% off. Instore you just get the half-price HC membership offer.
There's a link to the products in broclo's post #2051

There isn't a glitch as such on Johnsons but instore there are some bottles of Top to Toe wash that are going through the tills at 1p instead of the usual 99p. Some stores actually have a SEL of 1p, it's the wash that comes in bottles without a pump dispenser, 100mls I believe. Not available on dot com.

Does anyone know what the vintage No17 makeup GWP is as the store I went in had these on a table at the front of store but the two SAs didn't know about them, and there was also max factor ones there too.

Hiya BBBrummy,

These are an old 17 GWP which (at the time they were out) required you to spend £5 in order to get one.

However, now (and possibly then) they go thro' the till as "0.00" - i.e. free. Given that they are an old GWP it might be worth getting one along with any other 17 product (possibly even the current 3 for 1) ...or you could try getting one by itself but i wouldn't advocate or recommend it!

HTH

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH to the OP about today's 3for1....fingers crossed it arrives! (missed out on the last 2 lots of 3for 1 glitches as boots.com wouldn't accept my payment details :mad: !!)

SA in the midlands refused to let my gran have any Johnson's top-to-toe wash for 1p - she said it must be a mistake as the SEL says 99p and that's how much they are. Poor gran said but they scan for 1p. SA wouldn't have it..got gran some 3for1 bits today to make up for it

Off Topic

I mentioned the superdr*g glitch wk or so back - just an update, palmolive is no longer on BOGOF so if you do find it reduced, that's the price you'll pay - i managed to find some for 20p (while it was BOGOF too)

OMG!! I can't believe i've missed yet another fantastic glitch:( ....I really wanted some of those mirrors..Oh well like i said before they will be around again just gotta be quick.

Night all..

I'm pretty sure that instore the sensitive washing products are only 50% off to HC members.

I haven't even been walking through the door lately. Nothing worth dragging myself in there for at the moment. It's time Mr B got his till-spits out again, (so to speak lol).
Of course, .com is another matter .
