  • I popped into Boots this afternoon and managed to get the Umberto Gianni glitch - 2 Spa Rituals sets (RRP £9.99 each) on the 2 for £6 offer! :j

    I also got the 17 foundation with free blusher, and used the ACM voucher for a free eye dazzle. This did beep when the SA scanned it, :confused: but she didn't actually say anything, she just refunded the eye dazzle and then scanned a barcode she had on the checkout which put the eye dazzle through as free.:D

    I did this in 2 seperate transactions, so I got 2 pinkies! :T

    Oh and I've also applied for a job in Boots over Christmas!
    Am keeping my fingers crossed :p
    :heart: I have this theory that chocolate slows down the ageing process.... It may not be true, but do I dare take the chance? :heart:

    Is Boots/Boots.com the only company where these glitches/good deals appear? If so, why is this? I cant understand why there isnt a similar thread for Superdrug or another such store? Im getting hooked on these deals and do try hard but never seem to be able find them myself so thanks to those who do.

    Hello Judy

    Its funny you should ask this question as my mum asked me the exact same thing today.

    I think it is because boots have a loyalty scheme ie the advantage card where you can collect points and they issue you with vouchers which you can then use on items when they are on offer etc which creates glitches :D

    I do not think superdrug for example issues vouchers and therefore maybe you dont get glitches in this store as often.

    This is just my take on it btw

    Hope it helps :D

    I think its because a lot of boots glitches are for people either with an advantage card, and who are in the parenting and health clubs and get extra money off coupons as well as the normal vouchers. As superdrug has no loyalty card and therefore no clubs or extra points/money off coupons, there are hardly as many glitches cos every shopper has to pay the price on the sel with hardly any benefits in way of points/ using vouchers together.
    Im hooked to BOOTS too, we will all be muttering 'boots' in our sleep in time i bet!! :rotfl:

    After having not been to boots for 2 whole weeks after spending lots of points, and keeping a back seat from this thread had a quick catch up yesterday and popped in today to get my Christmas gift guide, found the no7 breast cancer lip gloss which I love on 3 for 2 so did that and took back my Time Delay wipes as I had a reaction to them. I thought she'd only swap the two sealed packets, and was honest said I got them with skincare vouchers and asked to swap for Sanctuary ones which I'm fine with and were also on the same offer, and SA said that was fine and I could swap all 3 packs so that was lovely. (it was a genuine reaction to the wipes, I've used them before, when they were in the pink packaging and they were fine, but after about the 3rd one this time my face went all blotchy and dry, so I went back to the Sanctuary ones which are thankfully fine).

    Now just need to plan my Christmas shopping ;)
