    If anyone's planning on buying loads of stuff (like me :D ) are you going to buy/pay in small lots to get the blinkies or is that a bit too cheeky? I WILL have a trolley (about half a dozen of them at the entrance!) full. Think the SA's may get funny about it maybe...

    I don't think it's too cheeky, and the SAs shouldn't get funny. If they do, stand your ground -- it's not an unreasonable request. If it makes you feel better, say the items are for friends/relatives who want a receipt. I don't know that I'd stand there and have them do 10 or so separate transactions in one go as I'd feel a bit embarrassed, but I'm sure people have done it before and there's no real reason not to. :)

    Spend the points, then return them!
    Not sure that is something we should be promoting to newer forum members? Or anyone? Surely buying something to gain points, spending the points then return the items is quite a dodgy thing to do?
  • Anyone doing a online shop for the sales there is a 500 points code for min £50 spend about to use.

    I have used iot twice now on the same account and works fine for multiple use too.
    there is also a £5 off code which can be used instead, id rather save a fiver than have it in boots points

    Wow, really?!:eek: Last year they only put them at 33% off in the beginning, and they stayed that price when the 75%/90% sales were on too!

    Last year they did go to 90% as I bought a basket full of them, but it was after the sales started HTH

    Here's an exercise from a voice therapist...to soothe or give your vocal folds a work out...get yourself all relaxed, upright, then start humming. You are looking for a single note which makes your lips tingly and tickly... it took me ages to hit the right note, but when I did, it helped so much. Hope it helps you, and enjoy your holiday.

    Thanks ever so much for that! I have just tried it out and will keep doing it throughout the evening! I am so excited about my holiday and had many excuses to get to Boots to get my blinkies for all holiday essentials! Glad I wont be missing 75% sale though ... really going to miss this thread though for a whole 2 weeks!!! Thanks again! Zoe
