what is the little green dot and red/white triangle sign at the bottom of each post for please. and does a person whom you have thanked know who you are?

When the dot is green - shows you are on line/site. The triangle is to enable 'bad posts' to be reported. If you move your cursor onto the symbol all will be revealed.
If you thank someone your "name" appears at the bottom of the post.
Hope that helps.

The green dot shows when that person is online.

My mum was in boots in Retford and there was a notice up that said"Two purchases per customer"..The doncaster boots had no items under £5.50 but they had loads of DR nail sets still on BOGOF...I think each store has their own rules for the vouchers..

Hi Pudding, were the DR nail sets with the other DR items (i.e. near tills in middle of store)? I haven't managed to spot them! The Wheatley Hall Road store has TD stock but no hand cream.

Went into my local boots today and they had nothing left for under a fiver in fact the cheapest they had was £8 stuff. I had a good hunt around and found that they had put the TD handcream with all the others and there were quite a few left. So gave my mum a voucher and the box and sent her on her way to the till while i got another box and some other bits. She was so chuffed that she got to try it for free although she kept saying "they cant be giving you it for free!!" :rotfl:

I'm off to Lincoln tomorrow - not just for TD stuff honest! and wondered if anyone had been in there and if they had a good range of stuff (really wanting the toner to make up some mother's day gifts for me (from 3 ds),mum and m-i-l) or if the DR stuff was reduced ???

Our two other smaller branches had loads of leaflets left but if staff are removing the cheaper stuff not sure if anyone will want these vouchers ??

Hi Happyroly,
Yes the DR were near the tills in the middle..They had plenty of everything...No TD wipes or handcream though....Yes wheatley hall has hardly any of the DR stuff in..that's been for a while...

Thanks for the new thread - Perhaps we can hunt out some new offers. Apparently there are some starting tomorrow so the rumour goes!

Hi - I am fairly new to MSE so please forgive me if I am saying something you already know! I used to work at Boots head offices in Nottingham 8 years ago in marketing and although many things have changed since then, some things might be the same! Reading the message above from banana1975 reminded me that Boots promotions are organised by 'sales plan periods' and are generally a fortnight long. If you are in store and see a shelf edge ticket you can work out the dates of the current sales plan period by looking at the tiny text at the bottom right hand of the ticket. It usally has a load of numbers and somewhere in it will be two dates with a dash between them eg 14/01/06-31/01/06. It's useful to know how long a promotion is on for if you want to return for more, or when the sales plan period ends so you know when to come back to look for new promotions if you can't get to the store very often!

I used a £3 hair voucher today. One on Trevor Sorbie 'body & bounce' 250ml shampoo & 75ml 'everyday shampoo'.
250ml reduced to £2.50p & 75ml reduced to 70p, so paid 20p cash for the 2.............so it worked for me on a miniture. Mind you the SA spent about 15mins reading T&C's, so it was her fault if she took it!
