    Phew! It's taken AGES to catch up! Yes, take your Mum's card. And in reply to the person, many pages back who said:

    Shop 4:
    5 Pack Tights - £4.50
    Used 100 points ACM voucher (came from Mum's account, mine only gave me a 50 points voucher)
    Total to pay - £4.50 (received 100 points)

    .... I have used two acm vouchers on one product before now, if bar codes are different, so you probably could have used both your Mum's voucher and yours on the tights.

    Someone asked about putting sets in Manchester. I saw some in the Trafford Centre on Thursday, but no reduced Gillette.

    And it is snowing here...
    thanks i will

    Got another No7 GWP and all the ones I looked were with the code 31111 478 (which when purchased previously did not have the 250pts vouchers in them)... was quite tired of searching so decided to take the GWP only to find @ home there was a pts voucher!!! :T

    So apologies if this has been posted but it looks like some of the GWPs with the above code do bring the pts vouchers!

    I had almost exactly the same thing happen today - Edinburgh St James' Centre, 31115 478 only code they had, and when I opened it up it contained Divine and a voucher. Was a nice surprise. :)
  • Just woken up, and there's very heavy snow. I had my first Boots dream last night, and I woke up from it laughing!

    I was in the back of a left hand drive car, and when the driver turned round it was ....... Louis Walsh! He said "I know a short cut, and this is a very fast car".

    He sped through red lights, and cross roads, without stopping and we arrived at a huge branch of Boots, in the middle of the countryside.

    We went inside, and he called out "Here they are!", and there were millions of pink GWPs! He was turning them over, saying "I can't find the number!". Lots of other people were in the shop, plus Security and loads of SAs, but nobody took any notice.

    Then he said "Quick, there's the lift. Nobody goes upstairs till the afternoon", and the next thing I remember is we came out of the lift and there was Simon Cowell, with 3 GWPs in his hands, and he said "I've got the right ones Louis, you are such a loser". :j :j

    Then he handed them to me, and we all walked out the door, which amazingly wasn't opening onto thin air (remember we'd been up in the lift), but onto a wide red path.

    And Louis said "There's a bus stop round the corner", and then I woke up!

    Discuss and evaluate please!

  • Was that definitely the code? The 478 seen previously is 31115 478, of which some have vouchers and some don't, which might suggest that they ran out of vouchers whilst packing this particular batch. What colour was your lipstick?

    Have checked it again and yes, it's definately the code and the lipstick is... pink lemonade!!! The 'dreadful' GWP... I had my 8yr DD with me and we both looked and looked for a different code GWP but were unable to find one lol!:o In the end I just took one and thought to myself 'well, tough luck!' So I was quite taken back when I opened the GWP and saw the voucher!:eek:

    Dear all, I'm really confused by all the possibilities of all the vouchers floating round at the moment. Does anyone fancy posting a few shopping lists? I love them. I find they inspire me to try a bit coupon jiggery-pokery. I found myself staring at my wad of coupons the other day, then up at the hair/skin/shampoo shelf, back down to my coupons (etc,etc,etc) until I gave up and left with a bottle of pop (on my points ;)).
    (edit: By the way: I did get some men's Boots Expert shaving stuff the other day. It was reduced to 97p and I got it free with my £1.50 off mens expert from the ACM - no beep. I was hoping it might knock another 53p off my shopping :) - too much to ask I know !).

    Ok. Avoid Ventura park Boots then. That's where it didn't work.

    Oh great, thats where I was heading today!!!!
  • just wondered if anyone can help went to my local boots yesterday and tried to get the mens anti fatigue box set which was priced at 3.57 and also on bogohp using my £5 voucher but when the sa scanned it it would not go through she tried saying it was cos it was a gift set which clearly it wasnt so we waited to see the manager cos she seemed a bit dippy....when the maqnager came she tried to say again it was cos it was a gift set but when she tried others and it worked....she then said she wud let us have them under hte voucher but only one she was not going to honour the bogohp which i thought was wrong luckily my husband had wombled another voucher on the way in so we were able to get the two she was stroppy to say the least but i am sure someone said on here you could get them both under hte same voucher or am i going mad lol??? i then came out of the store and rang cs and they tried to say because it was on bogohp thats why it would not work with the voucher but i know last week the no7 stuff worked on 3 for 2 so surely that cant be right tried arguing with the lady on the phone but she wasnt having any of it...ayone else had trouble using htem on mens products as boots seems quite sexist towards women at the mo???

    hi evrione am loving the snow...just thought i'll let you know but when i was in ilford

    the smaller boots there was sure men reduced to 98p I think but went on the till for 49p and that was the last one BUT i thought let me try the other "flavours" SEL £1.XX to see if they were reduced and guess what!!! they were 49p too so worht getting price checks on other products of a clearance item you buy!
    HTH and will probably work in other boots too!
    p.s. when do boots refill their shelves/get more stock?
