No signs up in the store I went into either, but I looked on dotcom before I left the house. Naughty SA was telling porkies Tiara.

So even though there are no signs up is the bogof definetly on

Don't want to draw attention by asking SA but also don't want to be embarrassed at tills

There are no signs up in my store but i did this:

Picked one bottle up took it to a manned till and asked the SA to double check saying - i was gonna buy it online this morning but i was coming into town so i thought i'd check, then cough and splutter a bit like i did cos im full of flu so that the SA humours you cos you've dragged yourself out when poorly.

Or was it cos she wanted rid of me quickly so she didnt get my germs.

BOGOF and 3 4 2 showed up on the till.

believe me moyilla, No7 suncare is definetly on BOGOF. I got 2 GWPs with 4 suncare items for free:T I used 2 tillspits and 2 pinkies. Go for it;)

Has anyone tried the No7 compact illuminating mirror today with pinkies and tillspits and the No7 GWP?

£5 off L'oreal, time delay, Olay (only more expensive lines within these brands) aka 'bluey'
Don't worry about the till spits (automatically issued vouchers from modern tills and self serve tills)- it sounds like they are a thing of the past.

My store has never done pinkies only till spits so will this change? Is it to give staff the power to refuse vouchers do you think? I cant see the point of using SS tills and then having to queue up to prove you are entitled to a money off coupon. Perhaps they are hoping SS customers are in a hurry and won;t bother to take a voucher?

who's gonna be the first to try the 6 4 1 glitch? SK, where are you?;)

sophisticated.

I had the ultimate shop tonight (I have to point out though that it wasn't down to just bootsing, it was mainly because of staff discount). I don't want to gloat too much with my whole shopping list but I can't resist mentioning....

No 7 star palette - £6.60
No 7 twinkle lip gloss - £4.95
+GWP
- £5.00 TS
= £6.65

17 eyeliner = £1.37 x 2
Got a GWP

I still have a pinky left, so planning to do the following tomorrow:
New No7 Xmas eyeliner for £2 (after TS)
Use 250 points from GWP, 100 points from ACM for eyeliner and 150 points from magazine for Xmas make-up.

someone said earlier its cos till rolls run out unexpectedly
what seems to be happening now is that the SS SA will give you the bluey - I know I'm not going to forget a potential cheaper spend, so their cunning plan won't work with me

Hello my lovelies...just a question

Has anybody ever won anything with the till spit surveys???

I always fill them in but have NEVER won a thing, Im getting disheartened!
I think its just a con to get us to dish the dirt on the service we get in boots!

whats the 6 for 1 glitch?

afroscot

I decided to nip in to use my last No7 pinkie. The aim being not to spend anything if possible. There at the door a clearance shelf with No7 eyeshadows and lipsticks for under £5! My plan worked got my lipstick for free. I also picked up a Best of Boots gift box for £2.99. I thought my luck was in when the SA told me there were vouchers inside! Unfortunately out of date - 2006!!!

Never mind a nice few stocking fillings for my sister.
