(a) A frenzied rush at 5pm on Christmas Eve for all 3 for 2s to be relabelled by the staff (who are busy thinking about their turkeys) as half price?

I'm not sure about Boots, but I used to have to work until 10/11pm in a high street store on Christmas Eve to prepare for Boxing Day. I'm guessing Boots probably do something similar.

JK files with 750 points is definitely working
The No.7 set; lovely SA tried to see if the offer had started today, but was still showing full price. but she did confirm that it would be starting Friday and would be £25. Also said they don't have many in, (I counted 10) :eek:. So an early start tomorrow I think!
The 342 will work if you are paying by points, but I think the GWP might be SA dependant.
TIRkiz, with that shop I think you've just graduated :T

Hello triplet-mummy , welcome.

i think for next year us hard working bootsers(thats all of us!) should have a line in our sig, to say how much we have spent to the nearest pound, value of goods(to the nearest pound) and points earnt, i think it would make us realise how much we spend in a good way and encourage everyone else.

Well i'm still a Bootsing Novice but i've just managed to rack up 3154 pts on .com:j

Total full cost of 20 items = £89.82

Total paid after discounts = £51.39

Total points received = 3154

Therefore Total spend (in Boots logic) = £19.72 for 20 items..less than a quid per unit...cheaper than the Pound Shops:D


I'd like to say a big Thankyou for all the tips, advice & humour you constantly pour out on this Board...i don't know how many times i've nearly choked on my coffee this week:rotfl: :rotfl::rotfl:

:eek:
trouble is, my OH knows my MSE name, and I don't think he realises quite how this bootsing thing works - he would just see the total spent bit and promptly have an apopoleptic fit! :rotfl: I've tried to explain to him how pinkies/blueys/points/BOGOFs/342s means that I am actually saving more than I am spending but he just doesn't believe me, men huh? Sorry to mimi, Mr BTVB and BhamDave (forgotten anyone?) you are the exceptions to prove the rule :T
