Okay Bootsers, the mystery of the failing Pinky/TS glitch is solved.
Transaction 1 :- no7 Hand Saviour - 50p to pay (TS/Pinky)
Transaction 2 :- as above but total was £5.50, thought it was grumpy SA not playing ball :mad: so I left it.
Transaction 3 No7 make up sponges £4 (using pinky only) - till beeped, SA quotes "cosmetics etc" I said I couldn't see that, and asked where it said that on the voucher. Result the Pinky she had (that had been swapped for a TS) was Out of Date, hence why I had problems yesterday as must have had another OOD one.
So you can all breathe a sigh of relief!:kisses2:Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That’s why we call it the present.audaces fortuna iuvat fortune favours the bold0 -
Now, I wish that I had.............. I have never been able to think clearly when bootsing .
You have my sympathies! My brain goes to mush as soon as I walk through the door. I must get organised and write a list. I'm sitting here thinking about what I should have done this morning, which isn't what I did do. Must try harder.........0 -
Oh happy, happy, happy happy days!!!
Got up bright and early this a.m., left babies in capable hands of daddy and went shopping - alone!
Arrived at boots and there were no no7 highlighting star pallets on display - I have wanted one of these since I first hyperventilated over it in the christmas catalogue weeks and weeks ago so I felt a bit glumLady sa said that they had only ever had six in!! Got one of the eye shadow compacts instead which is lovely and decided to go and get girlies some clothes from the baby dept when I felt a tapping on my shoulder - the lovely no7 lady had found a box of three star pallets and had run around the shop trying to find me and caught up with me downstairs so I got my star pallette:j
So, if any local boots employees are reading this - the No7 ladies at the Middlesbrough Cleveland Centre Boots are stars:smileyhea (can't find a star smiley so they can have some love instead) I went back upstairs and thanked them very much and told them how much they had made my weekend!!!
Had four good shops but forgot to use any of the extra 250 pointers out of the GWP's - and ended up with 2 x glossy locks and 2 x lipscreens to use my last pinkie and paid £6.50 for (couldn't use a 250 pointer though, it wouldn't scan) when I should have just got a mens no7 instead to use a 250pointer and paid 1.50 but never mind - got a bit carried away with bargains.
Finished it off with a latte and turkey, brie and cranberry toastie in M&S!!
Thanks for all of the posts with glitches and shopping lists etc - think I have thanked people when I have seen them and hopefully I can give something back when I find a glitch or bargain to share.0 -
Can i just ask....What's a pinkie?
Its a voucher that was being given out until this week, that entitled you to £5 off any Ruby & Millie or No7 item. You had to spend £5 in order to get one. The offer is now over, but the vouchers issued can still be used until tomorrow. We called it a pinky because the voucher was pink:D
There is now a new offer that when you spend £5 instore you get a voucher which we imaginatively call a bluey:D (no prizes for guessing its colour:rotfl:). This voucher comes in two parts, one part giving you £5 off selected skincare items, and the other part giving you £2 off when you spend £8 on selected healthcare. HTH:starmod:C'est la vie:starmod:0 -
Ladies move. Gentlemen move. Somebody ring the alarm, there's a MIMI on the loose!
Swapped my 2 x MEN's GWP for 2 x WOMEN's GWP. Used my last TILL SPIT on 2 x Tan Maintainer + WOMEN's GWP, BOGOF and only had to pay £5. (No stores are advertising the SUNCARE as BOGOF, don't be scared, just try your luck, if it doesn't work, take it all back or just say you have changed your mind).
Tried the TIME DELAY FOR MEN thing. Stupid ACM did not have the voucher on today. Thought I would use 200 mag points and 10% off. 10% off worked, but the 200 points only showed up as 100 points on my receipt. So please pay attention when you do this. 200 POINTS MAG VOUCHER ONLY SHOWING UP AS 100 POINTS ON RECEIPT! Decided not to query it as was in a rush. Not really worth it in my opinion.
Got 10 x NO 7 TRIO TRINKET things. I know some people wanted me to get some for them, I will be putting them on eBay, so find me on there! Managed to use some points up. Happy joy. PS. Can someone explain what the yellow/red things in there are and what is the silver amulet thing? Is it just for show? I'm confused.
Used 2 x BLUES. 1 on the ROC WIPES. 1 on the OLAY TOTAL EFFECT CREAM WASH. Had to pay 99p for each of the above. (Was looking a tad confused with what to get, and the troll SA that gave me loads of attitude the other day bounced along. She was so friendly I almost fainted. Was probably having her time of the month the other day! She told me what the cheapest items were. She was all smiles and sir this and sir that today. Almost wanted to give her a big hug, but decided not to).
Need to rest my arms as the whole of the above, after a gym workout has made me rather tired indeed. And my 2 x meal deals went through at £5.00 today instead of £6.00. It's all good. Woohoo.
Don't forget Mariah is on tonight.0 -
Spent my last pinkie today on No7 retractable lip brush. £2.50 to pay after pinky plus I used 250pts voucher from n07 GWP which scanned with no probs so brush was essentially free!
Bought S&G GWP for fiver, no 3 4 2 signs up but couldn't justify buying more. This is a gift to meeee! Haven't tried S&G before so thought would be good way to get acquainted with the range.
Got my EA quad from lovely lady with no hard sell. I stayed for a chat, don't get out much with 2 littl'uns so any adult coversation is welcome! Lots of ladies hovering with their coupons interrupted our consultation and she just gave them their free gift. So if you don't want a consult go when its busy and say you can't wait.
All in all quite chuffed with my bits!0 -
