I've had such a good day - too many things purchased to list but............I did 9 transactions at the ss till, one after the other and it didn't beep or freeze on me once :eek: . SA just smiled at me

Total paid £10ish, value of items £125ish + 2 gwps (one ladies one mans).

:j

Wow! Well done you! I totally bottled out of using TS/pinky combo at SS tills yesterday after my upset in Boots last week - have totally lost my confidence! So I just ended up getting some sponges - goodness only knows why, as I won't use them and don't know who I could offload them to! - and some R&M brushes which will prob go with the R&M bags and some other bits for Christmas pressies. Wishing I'd bought half the number of things, but on SS tills with pinky/TS and got £5 boxes of choccies as the freebies......never mind - got a huge haul of reduced M&S Halloween chocs all reduced to 10p so I guess I'm set up for a while....:rotfl:

Anyway, well done again I'm glad it all went so well for you.

Can I ask a question about the meal deals? I noticed the sign says get your 6th free when you buy 5 in a calendar month, now do you get every 6th one free, i.e your 6th and your 12th or is it limited to just your 6th?

TIA

Once you've got your sixth Meal Deal free, you start all over again. I've noticed London meal deals (for example, at Waterloo) are 50p dearer than elsewhere!

Morning ladies. I have to confess to being months behind with my bootsing. Its been a very long time since I had a nosey on this thread.

You and me both foxy! (months behind I mean)

I've been an occasional lurker lately but can't remember the last time I went into a branch of Boots. I just don't have the time or inclination at the moment but I must force myself as I need to get some christmas pressies.

I'm looking forward to catching up and who knows I might find a glitch myself again to share - (shazspice and I shared POTM prize for the time delay glitch almost two years ago now I think - how time flies!).
I still have a stash of No7 suncare from the 6 for 1 glitch. However, I don't think that would be appreciated in someone's Christmas stocking!

I've got some mailing coupons to use so I'm hoping to work out the best way to use them for the Christmas shopping night this Thursday - I bet I'll end up addicted again within weeks

Can't pay with points if you've used a pinkie, but all the rest should work. With 250 points voucher (from ladies GWP) mine scanned (no beeps) but was not added to card, it had to be added manually later , so check your receipt. hth

Got both the gwps today. Got bloomin clear nail varnish!
is this full size, could I just take it back like i bought and change it for a diff one of the chelf lmao.

No decent ACM vouchers for me Bought an eyeliner with pinky anyway. I'll prob get the voucher now! haha...

I also bought an eyeliner even tho I had no ACM voucher, so your comment made me smile.

I got 2 GWPs and both mine had Taffeta nail varnish in them ( I even got them from two different display stands in the hope that the colours would be different!:rotfl:). It's a nice colour but I don't really want two the same. If anyone else got two the same of a different colour (not clear) and would like to swap, please PM me.

A great point and well made. :T :T I know for a fact that there is at least one person on here that uses 2 or 3 diffferent names and addresses, and one has to wonder why? Anyone can be anything they want on here and that leaves room for abuse as well as anonymity

Blimey!:eek: I find that rather worrying! Perhaps I am just too trusting. I really like coming on here and catching up on people's posts, people seem so helpful and friendly,. But obviously all is not what it seems - the problem with someone being sent out of date pinkies has bothered me, too.

Anyway, hope you had a good shop, braved the SS tills and got what you wanted with your TS/Pinky combos.

I'm being really cheeky here I know, but I've got the prima voucher for the Elizabeth Arden gift and have now found out that the nearest boots that stocks it is 50 miles away
Is there any lovely person I could send the voucher to who would get it for me please?? I'd obviously send money/postal orders/paypal to cover postage etc.
Yours hopefully.....

Had 3 pinkies left to use, Got the gold metallic eye pencil for 2 pound and used the 250 points voucher no problem, then got the clear glitter nail varnish for 1.25 used the150 points out of mag and then got hubby some no 7 shaving foam 1.50 to pay and used the 250 points from last gwp would not go through by sa could see no reason why so added the points manually..

Excellent shops and perfect use of points vouchers - most impressed - you did what I should have done. Don't think I'll use my 250 points men's one now, or the women's one out of the current GWP as I ran out of pinkies- rats!

pinkies and till spit are the same thing, but can potentially be used together which is why everyone on here (inc me ) keep yabbering on about them. Last pinkie/ts day today so hope everyone gets some great deals. :T
btw with the ss tills they are not issuing ts anymore, you have to ask the SS SA to give you the new bluey and show her your receipt, or they might tell you to queue up at the normal tills like the SA did to me
