I Know Of A 2 Pound Mag Coupon For Rembrandt In This Weeks Best - Where Did The 4 Pound One Come From? (not The Mailing I Know About That One)

EDITED NOT SHOUTING - DAUGHTER BEEN ON COMP AGAIN.............
back to caps lol

There's a £4 off one in the new H&B mag , but one of the £4 ones (can't remember it's the mag or the mailing one) is only taking £2 off

Nobody ever seems to read my posts lol. Is there any little darlings that live in leeds that would be able to get me some little trinkets that mimi has been talking about? or do you think they would be too expensive to send, i would send a pinkie to cover it (i want 5 lol) and cover postage? thank you xx

boots may be clever - but they are not as clever as some of us

i think going private would be a good thing i only get to boots once a week and i make the most of it, yes boots did correct some things when the site went down, but i'm sure they didn't correct everything

points are always property of boots and that is all they will say if they take away your points, on the mag coupons (boots own mag) they now say one per advantage card/per person, so they will now if you have used more and so if you had 200 quid on your boots card all earnt from online, then you go in and use 2 of the same voucher, they might look at your account, accuse you of deception of points and wipe your card and close your account all for the sake of those 200 points, do not keep high points amounts - you have been warned!

Yep you certainly can....think its a £4 ish charge and you can pay in points for that too.

Delivery should be free though, if you are "spending" more than £45 otherwise its £2.95.

oooohhh Happy retirement passion8 :beer:
don't go spending all your spare time in boots now :rotfl: :rotfl:

Thanks jimsmum, I might ramp it up a bit more to try and find a glitch But I'm tempted to treat myself to some Clinique Aromatics when I get the last of my wages tomorrow, because I know you love it so much :rotfl:

On-topic. Seen those compact mirrors in Grimsby and Hull, so not sure why there's an absence of them elsewhere Unless it's because those stores don't have SS tills?

YMC - not ignoring you can't reply at the mo computer says nooooooooooo lol

I have skimmed through the huge amount of pages since last night ...........not sure what the posting in magic writing was all about...............surely if we can do something (what ?) to read it then the 'boots spies' can too?

Boots obviously monitor their sales and would be able to see what items are being combined , how many vouchers are used etc. That is why they have programmable tills! If they were seriously keen to make sure we all stuck to the rules then they would programme the tills correctly. If it gets out of hand then the glitch is busted pretty quickly.Whether that is because they read a relatively obscure web forum , or just analyse their sales return I don't know!
If people want to go underground then by all means do - but I really think Boots will still fix glitches(if it suits them..................just do the maths on how much more you spend in Boots than you used too) and no one knows who is the spy..................it could be one of the regulars who will sign up to the underground site !
I think one answer is to post if you find something good that is not posted already.....................then we all keep quiet and take advantage of the glitch until someone posts about it being busted. If we don't gloat and post over and over , perhaps we won't be so obvious on the Boots radar!

Any ideas on shops to do with the following vouchers? For a friend of mine who is skint and needs to buy xmas pressies for OH. Can the £5 off no.7 cosmetics be used on men's No.7 stuff?

4 pinkies,250 points when you spend £30,100 points when you buy botanics facial skin care
2 150 points when you spend 20 quid
400 points when you buy boots expert teeth whitening programme
200 points when you buy 25 digi pics
£5 off N0 7 cosmetics range
£2 off on botanics mens washbag
half price on the FCUK weekend bag
save 10% on time delay for men

I'm thinking 342 on men's No.7 toiletries, pay with pinkie and £5 off No. 7 cosmetics, get gwp, would that work?

Thanks for the kind comments MRS TO BE and ANDYMANDY. You are honey's.

*shrieks like some overgrown male banshee* The No 7 Trinket thing I got today has a little badge in the top right hand corner that says LIMITED EDITION, the packaging is kinda Xmassy, and on the back with the information it does say SEASONAL COLLECTION. Does this mean you could use the magazine voucher for the 150 extra points on it? If so, WOW, this is a steal. Was reduced to £1, and you get 150 points if it works. Ladies and gentlemen of Leeds, bob down to ALBION STORE tomorrow. Don't know if there will be any left.

Cheers.

anyone have a pic of one of these please ?
