Any hints on what to look out for instore tommorrow.

I am currently writing my shopping lists, so that im super organised, lol.

Off topic but i am getting the elmo live from argos, dont want to use the additions code as i have heard so much bad stuff about it on this site - as they look into your account and usually try and get it back from you at a later date.

*************A GLITCH I THINK?******************

Firstly, thanks everyone on this thread - I only discovered MSE earlier this year and have had a great time learning how to make the most of being a consumer! I have developed into a truly addicted bootser! Have even managed to train OH how to look at sels...

I've just tried something with .com and I think it has worked. I'm sorry if it has been posted before - I looked but couldn't find anything. I am hoping it is a real glitch that I can offer as thanks for all your hot tips.

I was gonna wait until I got a confirmation email but it involves the current OOFTW and the new No 17 GWP and as the switch over is tommorow (I think?) I thought I best just post it now in case it really is a real glitch and people don't miss out. here goes...

someone mentioned earlier the No17 GWP and the tan correctors so I ordered

3 x boots 17 lasting glow tan correctors @ 1.95 each but on 342 so 3.90
No 17 GWP
Babyliss Pro230 @ 48.93

total: 52.83

used 500 pt wys £50 or more

Total points 708

If I have learnt from all you wonderful bootsters correctly, that equates to about £45 in bootsing maths?

Regardless of the maths however, also brings my total points up to enough to get the No7 OOTW @ £35 and...

got 3.5% cashback (although only tracked order total as £49.94 but still £1.75 back :cheesy: )

best thing of all I have been on about getting the straighteners for a couple of weeks but OH could not understand why when he spent £140 buying my plain grey wide GHDs last year (don't ask about spend :eek: ). However, after getting excited and blurting in fast bootsing language what a great deal this was, he offered to pay for them for me for xmas! :j :T :beer:

HTH

P.S. still no confirmation email but order status has gone from 'received' to 'being processed'?

pps. email now arrived but says : We are now unable to change or cancel this order for you. Before your order is accepted it is subject to further validation checks and we will notify you of any issues.

I'd try refuse it! Be damned if I would return it to store to save boots £30!

Hmmm, although boots have had parcels left on my patio, i'd ansswer door, but say to driver to take back

Little rascal turned on due date on sunday and found out FINALLY it is a boy, which is really what I was hoping, so very chuffed, but hopefully will be a while as I have 2 busy days ahead!

Hi, good shop :T
I think the OOTW changes on Friday, at least I hope it does cos I'm thinking of swapping to those straighteners (I got the babyliss pro 230 £29.99) and my order doesn't arrive instore until thurs, Keep an eye out on here, someone will know!
:mad: I forgot my cash back - just when I think I've got the hang of bootsing, I forget something.
I got the confirmation email after 5 mins and I got the despached email just now 24hrs later, so I think they are getting faster.
the advisory notice is normal on the email, you should get your order no problem. hth

Just found the list of OOTW - thanks jamtart for saving it and thanks to op, whoever you are :T

so it looks like you'll have to wait until Fri for the No.7 make up, but don't worry this is a really good thing, 'cos your points from online orders don't get added until 5 days after despatch, which, if you ordered today might be tomorrow, so hopefully you'll get your points by Mon/Tue. You have to go to an acm instore to get them put onto your card, then you can get your No.7 collection :j
