  • Just a heads up not really boots related but interest rates have dropped 1.5% down to 3%!

    Meaning more spare money...maybe for boots glitches!
    Will not spend more money:naughty:, but will spend more time looking for that great bargain!:dance:
  • Morning ladies (& Mimi! - your posts always make me smile!) - just to let you know that I managed a .com order yesterday of:

    3 x No7 Bath Soak (addicted to it after I tried a little one in a GWP!)

    It then added the new GWP & a gift bag (will wait & see what it is!)... then showed the bath stuff was on 3 for 2 so total of £16 for that lot! The GWP & gift bag still remained in the basket, only downside was the £2.95 delivery & I couldn't use a pinky! Very pleased about 3 for 2 (is this on instore still?) and the GWP!

    I;ve just tried it this morning just to check it still worked & it does! Hope this helps someone :) xxxx
  • I too think of glitches as a bonus (although i am a bit rubbish at them!). You guys are great with all the combos that you use - mr b should actually be grateful. i only recently started bootsing and have spent loads even whilst getting good deals because of this site. i never used to go into boots before that. their profits must be going through the roof with all that we have to spend to get the occasional freebies. i would hate to see this site go underground as i don't get many opportunities to look at all the sites (eg facebook). i think it should be 'quick grabbit while you can' because they usually bust most glitches anyway and well done to those that can get them - there will always be anotherone soon. just
    my humble opinion. i think i love reading about all your shopping trips more than the actal bargain!!!!!!

    I agree its all about cat and mouse, sometimes you win sometimes you dont.

    I think boots like this thread, mainly because since i have found it i have been in there everyday spending money which i normally wouldnt, just to see if i can get a glitch or a good deal. I only buy still i want or need, ie stuff for xmas. I doubt i will be doing much bootsing after xmas though.

    So even with my freebies i have still added a small amount to their turn over.

    There are so many offers on in boots it does get really confusing as to what is the best offer (clever ploy on boots part i think), So i do like to come on here and check im getting the best deal for my money, ie bonus points days, extra points on .com.

    Cos if boots are offering them out i'd be a fool to not use them especially as i'd be buying nappies / wipes / baby food anyway.

    Anyway i have 2 TS and 1 pinkie to use. I will go into boots later, see what will won't work. If it doesnt i'll cancel it and get bits to put into my son's school raffle. If Mr B is giving it away the school will gladly take it off his hands.

    There is nothing to stop the store ringing up the helpdesk when they realise they are running low and ordering more vouchers in. There are always extra boxes of vouchers available for stores to order.
    Unfortunately, though, they don't necessarily do this, especially if it's during the last couple of days that they run out. Last time the pinkies were on, I missed out on about 8 vouchers because they'd run out :( The excuse is always that it's "subject to availability" :rolleyes:
  • So, is pinky+till spit combo deffo out full stop, even if you have 2x No7 items in the transaction and still have a balance to pay after this?

    And can the 250pts voucher not be used with just a pinky or a till spit? off now then?

    I used the 250pts voucher from the gwp today after using a TS on 2 tan maintainers. £5 to pay, 250 pts and gwp :D

    On .com the hairdryer was £49.99 now £39.99

    so if it is the ootw do you think it will be £25 or £20 half the original or half the latest price?

    Sorry if i'm being abit thick

    Yes, you're right re the price - I've amended my OP :o

    I would guess it would now be £20.00 - half the latest price :)
    You can't control everything in life....... your hair was put on your head to remind you of that :p
