I noticed on Sat that the Oracle one (i think you're a fellow Reading bootser) had clearance on some tens machines, there were 3 I think on Sat down to £19.99. It is worth trying the health club £5 off tens machine voucher with it too.
OMG how could I forget the gwp:eek: I think I need to write a list like the organised bootsers!!!!
Yes I saw the reduced ones too but thought I'd wait til xmas event to help towards the #50 (i don't know where the pound sign has gone!) Do you go to the Calcot branch too? If so what's it like? I really want s&g gwp #5 each but neither Oracle nor Broad St had them.
PS How do I know if I am in the Healthclub? I did the online thing but there isn't anything to confirm it - also where do I get that health club voucher? tia0 -
I'll be attending my first ever Xmas event this week. So can you tell me if the £50 has to be spent in one transaction or can it be split as long as the total using your advantage card reaches £50 on the night?
Also, do mocs count towards the spend or not? (Like nappy coupons).
My local is not a large store, but big enough to make it worthwhile going - but I'd like to plan my strategy as well as possible, so any hints and tips greatly appreciated :beer:0 -

The £50 does have to be spent in one transaction. However you can do a few £50 ones.
If the coupons are brand coupons that start in '99' then that does not effect your spend. IE: Spend £51.00 get points, minus £4 brand coupons = £47 and still get the points
Oh dear that is drivel, but you should get my drift :rotfl:
ETA: Points from the acm can be spent at the event, most stores start theirs at around 3. They remove/block the acm so best bet is to get there half hr before then you can print out extra points coupons and use them when the xmas shopping event starts

Does anyone know if the 500points when you buy 2 clinique Make-up is online only?
If it was automatic like the JK nail files were, I thought I might use a 750pt voucher in combination with it at the next xmas event (wednesday)

The tens voucher was from a recent HC Mailing, but depending on your options you have chosen(kids/pain/vits/heart/weight/smoking/allergy/womens/pain etc) will depend what(if any!) vouchers you get.
I did not get a tens voucher as pain is not an option I chose, but I bet there is someone who is not needing theirs

Hello ladies and gents,
Found this cute little Botanics Facial Pampering Set online thanks to a poster on HUKD (can't find the original poster but wanted to credit him or her anyway).
It's only £1.95 and contains :-
* Skin brightening deep clean gel 50ml
* Day shift moisture lotion 50ml
* Skin brightening toner 75ml
* Night shift moisture cream 10ml
* Quenching face mask sachet 8ml
Quite good value for the money, but I'm unsure if it's available instore, but would be a great buy if it was especially for teachers / helpers etc etc.0 -

Suppose it depends what areas of hc apply to you most, but it seems vits and pain ones offer more coupons in the mailings, think maybe i should change my options even though i never use pain bits as atleast they are useful to pass on. Weight has been good for slimfast etc in the past if that interests you thoughIndianGirl wrote: »Thanks Broco
