Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 45 - Post your finds here

I think it may have already been said - but I got the MF GWP today with only buying 1 lipgloss (£8.80)
Worth noting its only the SF smoothies that are 342 and not the milkshakes or any of the snacks.
I also suspect that the Rimmel GWP (which is amazing btw) would scan without spending as although i spent over £10 - it scanned without the dreaded 'beep' before putting any of the makeup through.
Also, the MF GWP DID beep before putting thru the gloss so you do need a purchase - just need to find out what the smallest spend is to get it!!

Boots on Gallowtree Gate - Leicester also has self-service tills but they were closed when I finished browsing so didn't get a play!!

Lastly, I got a 342 xmas gifts deal, but my lowest priced item was half the price of second highest, Am I pushing my luck if I try swapping it for more expensive item??

can anyone tell me if the 250 points voucher from the mens No7 GWP can be used on womans No7 too?:A Thanks

It's very hit and miss. It should be allowed based on the wording, but the darn thing beeps if you aren't buying no7 men's! It's worth arguing with the SA to get them to add it manually (unless you have other vouchers/glitches that you don't want to call attention to and are just trying to get out of there, lol!). If you've had lots of uneasy transactions at your store, I wouldn't stand there and draw attention to myself arguing over it, tbh.

I'm about to place an order for over £50, but didn't have an advantage card so I registered for an instant one to take advantage of the 1000 points offer. How do I collect these points without my card?

dont know about collecting points, im newbie myself.
i assume they will send you card later.
important bit, do not forgot to use current code for extra 500 points for 50pounds spend.

Now this voucher really get on my nerves! I have one that came with the last Men's GWP. Tried using it when I got the 3 4 2 No 7 For Men stuff, the till said COUPON OUT OF DATE even though it was in date! Not impressed. Then I tried it again this time with only one No 7 For Men item, and the flamin' thing still did not work. Has anyone actually got it to work or shall I just bin it? Thanks in advance.

PS. I still think you guys are swearing when you quote MF! LOL.

Don't think your pushing your luck at all- if I have the third item anywhere less then the second, I get really annoyed with myself- for this reason, 342 is a real headache for me:rotfl: and I can easily spend well over an hour in Boots searching for the best deal!:eek:

I wouldn't feel bad about taking it back, as long as the item you want to swap it for is less or equal to the second item, or you end up needing to refund the whole thing and starting again....could mean carrying around the whole lot all over again!

to everyone pming me i am having problems with messages i send them but they don't get recieved and i am struggling with trying to figure it out, but my dad is going to add some bits on my comp so maybe he'll fix it, my 5 year old had a party this afternoon and yes she has them little b*****s in her hair as well!!!!!

also managed to get 2 x lancome bits and was given a gwp bag, also got a couple of bits for my mum (so i get the money back from her!) used a 750 points coupon on top of the promo 1000 on lancome and the 1000 on a 50 spend, then spent the points quicker than grease lightning! spend 55 got back 36!! :beer:
