Couldn't resist Boots today, and have to say their sale is fairly good.

Did the T & G £8.99 bottles again, 2 for £7 (with 100 points off any shampoo) bringing them to down to £6 for 2 litres (may not have bothered with this, as normally buy cheapo shampoo, but the stuff really is good quality and has made a massive difference to my hair (frizzy, thick) so have stocked up

Also did the cuticura twice (cannot believe they are paying us 71 p to take this away !!!!), evening primrose gift pack (reduced to £3.50 from £7 with a 100 points voucher)

Also did a Boots 17 purchase (only a fiver now to get the bag) but with triple points and a voucher for £1.50 could not resist BUT beware, they had loads of sparkly bracelets (reduced to 99p) good for the kid's party presents, but these do not count as cosmetics, so they did not qualify towards the fiver.

Also bought (seperate shop) about 5 kid's games half price £3.50 and £4 for £7 and £8, with the 200 points for a £20 spend. Again, great for anyone whose kids go to a lot of parties (i have got 4 children, so my party present bill could run into the hundreds given the "invite the whole class syndrome")

Word of warning though, when not all my vouchers went through the young and lovely assistant was pounced upon by an battleaxe supervisor who said "you are trying to use too many vouchers" (my no.7 gift set, reduced to £7.50, for which i had a £1.50 (machine) and a £2.50 (red gift bag) off, refused to give me either voucher back, saying "you have had a good shop, now be satisfied with what you have got" (paraphrased).

Bah Humbug !

I would report her ("the battleaxe supervisor") Boots is not owned by her is it??? Call up CS and they will probably add some points to your card as a goodwill gesture for the traumatic post christmas stress that was put upon you.

This advantage card machine offer works on all shampoo, conditioner, gel, hairspray excluding travel sizes. With some of the own brand stuff selling at less than £1, again you can get paid to take it away. If you want to try the basics gel/shampoo/conditioner, you can get up to 70p for each one you relieve them of. Personally I went for the expensive 70p gel!

I had loads of vouchers from the machine today but they wouldn't go through so SA rang superviser who told her to put them on manually. OH was cringing at the delay it was causing -as though it was my fault! I got the No 7 plum mascara for £4.75 but used a 250 points voucher with it. It was also on 3 for 2 but I didn't need anything else.

I had a problem with vouchers going through today as well. 150 points for a £20 spend. The girl had to get the supervisor to come and add it. I held up as massive que. Make sure you check your receipt before leaving the que not like me. I must of spent an hour in their for my 150 points.

The points are for the limited edition FCUK and I could only see them for £3.95 are the points working on the normal FCUK - cant work this one out, I had a look today - can rolpaula explain please, I wouldnt want to miss out on a bargain.
