Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 43 - Post your finds here

Liverbird

Just back from Gemini Boots at Warrington. Managed to use the last of my pinkys/ts on stuff for me for a change.
Apologies to person who hid 3 S&G gift sets on bottom shelf behind other sets..... my radar was on and I managed to snaffle them.

Cambridge City Centre (Petty Cury) had quite a few S&G GWP left this lunchtime. Used my last pinky/TS combo on the SS tills without any problems so No7 sharpener and S&G GWP for £0.50p:D .

Not been on here for ages as didn't have internet for a while. Now trying to catch up with Bootsing without spending too much! :rolleyes:

Today, I needed to return something I bought last weekend, as part of the "get 1000 points back when you spend £50+" deal. (It was one of the things I had paid for btw, not a free item.) I was worried about losing my points, but the SA said an exchange was fine, and for to choose something else to the same value (£12) and I wouldn't lose any points. I came back with 2 x £6 things, and as she was putting it through the till she said to go and get another one, as they're 3 for 2! I thought that was so kind of her - it really made my day! A little thing, I know, but I thought you lot would understand! :T

I then went downstairs and got a No7 Metallic Blue pencil and No7 Clear Glitter Nail varnish today, with my last two pinkies, and was also able to use 250 points coupon out of the recent No7 GWP, and 150 points for Christmas No7 items, out of the magazine. And that was at the No7 till as well! So, I was pleased with that!

The No7 till is quite near the SS tills and I overheard (earwigged!) the SA who was manning them go over and void someone's transaction and tell them off (in a polite way) for using 2 No7 £5 vouchers in one transaction. She said you can only use one and put the whole lot through again. The till had shouted out "1 free, 1 free" really loudly! To be fair though, the SA fished one of the vouchers out of the slot and gave it back to the woman to use on something else. So please be careful if you use the two vouchers together on noisy tills!

Sorry for long post. I hope I'll find some offers and bargains to post about here soon.

I bought 2x tan protector BOGOF yesterday and got the mens gwp and used pinky so still working

so did I;) but when I was browsing dotcom late last night (as you do:rolleyes: )I tried adding bogof suncare items to my basket. Did this the other day too (with the same products) but the only difference was; the first time I qualified for a GWP, but last night I didn't

All tillspits gone now, phew!! I am determined to keep off the latest merry-go-round with vouchers. I really don't need any more skincare items:)

snip...me too, I just cant afford to spend 'extra' on top of the vouchers just to use them. I normally go to Boots for nappies as i get these anyway but Asda have a huge box for £8.00. Ill just have to spend my mums blueys for her when she gets them. Ive got her right into Bootsing but she doesnt read any forums so she relies on me for info and tips. Everyday she txts me to ask 'whats occuring' (meaning whats new at Boots ) :rotfl:

I ended up with two ladies no7 gwp's and one mens from yesterdays shops - when I unpacked last night one of the ladies ones literally fell apart in my hands so will parcel it up in a little basket for a pressie, though I would do the same with the other one so opened it and it had been opened previously - tissue paper was all torn and scrumpled up and no vouchers inside:eek: I know it was free but flippin' 'eck!!!

And, are the no7 trio of trinkets current or clearence please?

Awww hunni I know you are going to put them in a little basket anyway, but it might be an idea to ring CS and explain to them your disappointment, and also so they can inform the store to be more careful of their stock...imagine if you had of given them as a present? :eek: That isn't fair really

Thanks MrsBB - I hadn't thought of when I was giving them, I am going to be giving them to members of the same family on christmas day so when they had opened them one would have been nicely packaged with all items present and correct and the other would have been scavanged - could have been embarrasing:cool: . The ladies on No7 counter are lovely so next time i am in will mention it to them, may ring cs about the vouchers not scanning on any of the no7 I had bought - suncare, mens, make-up - so will mention it too.
