I wanna.....Understand the Bootsers!

Soz Guys,

I am so confused:eek:

I love boots and am trying to get the best out of it... but....

I have read loads and still, I don't know what................

a) A pinkie is?
A till spit?

Although I always get the vouchers out of the machines etc, I can never make hide nor hair of them really:p

I feel like an outsider, looking in...

I am sure I am not alone, would anyone spell out the basics? Please:o

Try looking at the first page of the boots threads. They are really good at explaining everything there.

but to answer your two questions

1) a pinkie is the nickname given to the pink £5 off vouchers you get when you spend £5 on just about anything (excl prescriptions & baby milk) instore. It's gives £5 off no 7 or ruby & millie.
2) a till spit is just what it sounds like. Sometimes the till gives you an extra voucher after your receipt. Just like at tesco.

Thanks for this Guys, must have missed that on the first page, but it's been bugging me for ages! Anyway now I understand the lingo a bit better, gonna dive back into the Boots thread, with a new found confidence, and an overwhelming urge to spend spend spend!

At the moment most stores issue a 'pinky' when you spend £5. This is a pink voucher handed over to you by the cashier entitling you to £5 off Ruby & Millie/No7.

Self service tills, and some other (usually smaller) stores don't give you the pink voucher, but rather a "till spit" which spouts out of the till along with your receipt. This is the same as the pink voucher giving you £5 off R&M/No7.

Both the pinky and the till spit have different barcodes so can be used together to get effectively £10 off. This is dependent on your SA accepting both vouchers, and can of course be used on the self service tills HTH x
