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've been getting the amazing eyes and metallic eyliners for £2 with the blinkie, which is a bargain as they go on so nice and are great colours. Eyeliner always gets used!

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!

I'm afraid she was right... when using a blinkie u have to spend £5 or more after redeeming the blinkie to get a new one... but if using n e manufacturers coups I think this would be taken off as 'money' by the tills (i.e if buying some Huggies nappies which cost £5 and u gave a £2 manufacturer coupon the till would still c it as a £5 transaction not a £3 one... n e correct me if I'm wrong:o ) HTH

Oh, OK - I feel a bit better about that, then! I thought it was just me that everyone in Boots had a vendetta against!! I'll know in future!
