    Good for you I know exactly wot you have experienced the same when trying to earn extra points and GWP your made to feel like a shoplifter with some of these SAs that are right old jobsworths

  • It definitely works. I got 1x bath soak, 1x body polish, 1x body wash. It was 342 so £16.40 then 100 points from ACM then blinkie so £11.40 and GWP went through no problems.

    Thank you so much for this info. The till must recognise the original price, before the 3 for 2 kicks in, meaning you can get your GWP at a bargain price. :j :j

    I've got a shrewd idea that it was this conundrum that has kept me awake for the last 3 nights!!! Can you imagine going to the doctor and saying you couldn't sleep and he asked "and why do you think that is m'dear?"

    And you replied "Well, I want to spend £18 to get my GWP, but in my case, I have to spend £20, cos I get 10% deducted, and I thought I'd get the bath soak, that's on 3 for 2, then I could use the Blinkie that I found in my other bag, plus the 250 points from the last GWP, the £5 ACM voucher, and with luck I'd get another 250 points, plus a Wrinklie, which I think of as a Winkle, and it's in 2 parts, but I can't sleep worrying about it doctor".

    Then he would say "So is the Wrinklie Winkle the name you give to the whole voucher, or just one part m'dear?!

    And then you'd say (wait for it .....) "One part I think of as the Winkle, so the other part must be the Cockle!!!!!" :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
  • Today i only really bought the p&p lipcare becaude it was on of the cheapest things in the p&p range,but,i have to say ladies,iv just used it and its FANTASTIC my lips have never felt so soft and plump!

    :j Had my best Bootsing day ever. All receipts now destroyed (hiding the evidence) but did do my adding up list - how sad is that!
    Total Spent: £21.08
    Total Saved: £17.00 various vouchers, not including reduced HE or Model Me
    Total Points: 2020
    In Bootsing maths I make that a total spend of 28p :rotfl:

    Also met my very first other MSE'r (spotted by seeing the list and handful of vouchers), who was so very kindly and gave me the elusive P&P ACM voucher. :A
