a fair few moons ago i had over 50000 points on my card :eek: but mr.b didn't like that...............:mad: I now burn my points when they around the 5000 mark

I've had up to 45000 over the last year with no problems. Did you have yours taken away by Mr B and if so, what occurred to cause that.

I intend to save up again for the year and am likely to hit that mark again, and don't want to upet the apple cart and lose them.

At one point I had 45000 points due to getting a mobile phone from boots. The amount of ladies would shout out "oh you have got lots of points . You want to be careful no-one takes your card"

Well It would have helped if they hadn't just a;alerted everyone.

Hi, my nearest Boots are Basingstoke/Newbury - I can't find anything to spend my two blinkies on! B/stoke has some of the stuff listed by laura 85 but it is at least double the prices she's listed. Any ideas? they're burning a hole in my purse!

I don't seem to be getting the hang of this Blinkie thing, or there is just some huge Boots conspiracy, to keep me from buying bargains!!

After not getting a blinkie when I spent £15 last week, then having the Olay GWP snatched out of my grasp yesterday & NOT GETTING ANYTHING in the sale (:mad: ) I went out this afternoon, determined to get some bargains!! I found some No. 7 nail varnishes for £3.06 each, so I got them on a 342, & paid £1.12, with a blinkie - BUT the SA said I couldn't have another blinkie, as I haven't paid out £5 cash - is that right? Do you only get a blinkie, if your spend is £5 over & above the £5 discount? I'm sure I've read other posts on here where people have only spent a small amount (after redeeming a blinkie) & got another one back? Or am I dreaming?? I wasn't confident enough to stand my ground, so I slunk off, very disappointed!! I was hoping to go back & get some more stuff with the next one! I've had one, solitary blinkie to spend & I'm feeling deprived!

yes thanks ! i think ive got too much though. Ive got about 21 gifts something :eek: :eek: i bought two gift sets thinkin they were for men and they are for women :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Bought myself a few things aswell
Elle take me on a journey
toni & guy gift set

lesson went ok thanks. I didnt wake up until 10:17 and my lesson was at 10:30 :eek:

EDIT: I didnt go sleep until 5am

I like your excuses, hun!! I bet you knew they were for women really!!

Don't blame you for treating yourself! If you decide you've got too many, I'm sure lots of people on here would pay to take them off your hands!

You didn't get much sleep, did you! And made the lesson by the skin of your teeth! I bet getting ready in 10 mins was fun! I take about an hour to wake up properly & get dressed! Usually surfing the net at the same time, though!
