Hi, thanks for the sugestion, I will as I still have some survey to fill up.

Oh, thanks for tell me that, I never know it:rolleyes: . Now I got something to prove my words then. And I took the goods with me when I left and he watching me out. I'm so angry at taht moment, so just want to see if the alarm will ring. Ofcause I went out with no problems as I'd paid for all the products I purchased. But silly me, I so angry with the situation forgot to look his name.

Come to think of it, if you used your Advantage Card it will have a record of the transaction there. And also on the master roll on the till you used. (Do they still use paper master till rolls these days or electronic ones?)

I managed to get the R & M mirror set for £1, paid with a pinkie :j
Got another till spit and a pinky. Anybody have tried buying this gift set for 3 4 2 = £12 and paid £2 with till spit and a pinky at a normal till?

Also I got a £5 off electrical, would like to swap with a pinky. pm me

I've just been in to try my luck again but the SA on the fragrance counter said that the pinkie wasn't valid with a gift set. I've managed to buy 1 so i think i'll give up now.

Do you think this will work

Buy
No7 Radience Revealed Exfoliator - £7.50
No7 4 in 1 wipes - £6.50
No7 P+P Glossy Locks - £0.00 (342)
No7 P+P Lip & Eye Screen - £6.50

17 pure finish mineral foundation - £5.95
17 Blush - Free
17 Eye Dazzle - Free with ACM ACM voucher

2 x UG Hair Serum thingys £6.00
Total Spend - £32.45

Use
100pts WYB 17 product mailing
free Eye Dazzle ACM
500pts WYB 2x No7 mailing
500pts WYB 1x P+P mailing
450pts WYB 2x P+P (neither this or the one above have any exclusions) Mailing
250pts WYS > £30 mailing
150pts WYS > £20 mailing
£1 off UG Product mailing
£5 off No7 Pinkie
£5 off No7 TS
£5 off No7 PC Voucher (bought this from ebay)

SO total spend = £16.45 with 1950 pts

Can't see why you're putting 4 x No 7 items thru? (unless 500pts WYB 2x No7 mailing excludes No 7 P&P?)

If you remove

No7 Radience Revealed Exfoliator - £7.50

you'd not be able to use the 250pts wys £30, but you'd be saving £7.50 and you could get the Exfoliator separately less £5 using a pinky (or do a pinky/tillspit combo and save £2.50 off other shopping).

before i left the sa said to me 'you've got a lt of vouchers haven't you where are you getting them all from' i spend good money in there to get the vouchers and then they say something like that! but at least i got everything i wanted in the end just a bt of a faff to get it all!

Well, suggestions for come-backs....

"Yes, it's because I'm employed by Head Office to go round and shop at all the branches to check up on staff traing."

"Yes, I'm the boss's wife."

"Yes, I spend at least £1000 a week here for stuff for my three care homes. I must be one of your top customers."

"Yes, there's a couple of thousand of them blowing round the car park."

"Yes, I take them in part payment for services rendered." (Better smile at this one...)

thanks i'll have to remember some of those! my actual reason for having so many is because i have a one year old so i was buying nappies and wipes in £5 lots so i would get the vouchers. i still have some left to spend but i think i'll go to a different boots with then next!

No men's items reduced in the Leeds store. What a shame! However did manage to get some R+M clearance items. Got the metallics thing. On clearance at £4.50. 1st SA said no to the PINKIE, 2nd SA said no, 3rd SA said no, 4th SA did it for me via a manual override. Asked her if she would do it again, she said yes, did it again. So got 2 R+M metallics things. Then had my eye on the little R+M cream coloured mini bag things. On clearance again, at £2.13. So picked up 3, went to SA, put it through, used a PINKIE, had to pay £1 and something. Did the R+M mini bag thing again, and it went through. RESULT: Used 4 PINKIES. Got 2 R+M metallics and 6 R+M mini hangbag things, and paid about £2.50. Woohoo. Get me. *** Also some INSTANT RADIACE BLUSHER things that were reduced to £6.63. So if you had your 300, 200 and 500 point coupons, this would have been a steal as you can use PINKIE on it too. Oh well. *** Anyway, time for a rest, as I had a whole collection of stuff that I was hauling around with me today. Don't forget to *POUT*

Am i missing something here whats with the constant references to pouting?

This will be reduced to £15 from 31st October. Hope this helps someone!

This looks fab i will definitely be getting one, thanks :j

Those looking for perfume deals, I just saw on hotukdeals that Sarah Jessica Parker's Covet (30ml) is ringing up at £5.75 at Tesco. The pricetag said £11.50. I bought the 100ml Pure Bloom Covet (which is a different version of the fragrance) for £19.99 at Boots when it was half price, and love it! This would be a fab gift or something for yourself.
