Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 46 - Post your finds here

iloveboots

Hi All
Went to local store today to use some vouchers, got a few things and then got informed that my ac has a fault, have rang cs and they said it could be up to 3 weeks for my new ac to come.......wanted to use my points in the 75% sale. I am fed up now. I know i can validate my receipts etc but i can not use my points..

What is "wombling" - do you all have to walk in a funny way, as you go into Boots?

hello everyone. i am not very up to date with bootsing at the moment and i've tried to flick through a few pages to get up to date with the glitches/best offers going on but wondered if any of you had a min to update me on the most valid things as i don't have much time to go through all these pages!

i understand that you get a £5 blinkie for every £5 you spend - is this correct? what can you spend the blinkie on? is it just no7?

am i right in thinking that no7 is on 342 at the moment also? so you could take advantage of this as well as the using the £5 blinkie?

i haven't got the most recent mag either to see what coupons are in there but i have had a look on the first post page to see what offers etc there are but they didn't coincide so much with what i've read on the last couple of pages so wondered, if you don't mind, filling me in on your best finds! thanks in advance x

p.s is it the 14th that further reductions take place? also, i just wanted to check... the gift sets that have been on 342 for christmas that are now in the sale - do you still get the 342 even though they are reductions?

LOL - you DO make me laugh!

It's collecting "litter" of a blinky kind in the current scenario and recycling it - by using it!

hi all,
Could someone kindly expalin to me what a blinkie is please? And also what is the deal with the pantene sachets and the olay gwp?
I have read through lots of pages but havnt really got the gist of it.
Thanks:beer:

a blinkie is a nick name for the No.7/Ruby + millie £5 off voucher dthat you get when you spend £5.
Pantene is 100 points per product, the cheapest is the sachet at 97p next cheapest is 200ml shampoo/conditioner £1.75
The Olay GWP seems to be going thru @ 0.00! with out having to buy anything from the range (unless you need to disguise it, of course!)

Yes!

Don't think post 1 has been updated yet, I havn't seen a mag yet

p.s is it the 14th that further reductions take place? also, i just wanted to check... the gift sets that have been on 342 for christmas that are now in the sale - do you still get the 342 even though they are reductions?

BTW, I've found another GWP that scans for free (I'm on a roll now:rotfl: )the l'oreal one. OOh, it's lovely. I got one yesterday. As soon as DD saw it she said "I need that lip gloss" I will have to go back for 1 more:rolleyes:
.

Oooh I wonder if I can get this one - can't find the Olay one anywhere.
Whats in the L'Oreal one, and which products did you find it beside please?

Oh thanks!! :A :A :A Of course!!! Remember you're a Womble!! :T :T To think I am a Champion Wombler, and never knew it!

Still wasn't sure how much Pantene to use, so settled for about a third of a sachet, and then a wee bit more. It's great! I was going to try to turn the top over, and keep the rest for the next time, but I got in a mess, and as it was free, I gaily threw it in the bin!!

Must watch Claire Sweeney now - not so much for how she gained 2 stones in 7 weeks, but how has she lost it! Shame Bootsing doesn't burn up more calories!

Are there going to be more reductions on the sale prices tomorrow? What time will it start?

I think you can relax re M&S...sounds like media hype again...job losses workout about one per store...natural wasteage like retirements will produce the same result.
