    Congratulations Polls, you must be feeling really chuffed! So pleased for you. And may we ask for how many years you have been a Glitches And All Bootser?

    In fact, who was the first person on this thread who discovered the glitches? She should be crowned Miss Boots!! xx


    The old tarts (as they are lovingly named by Martin) are really well established but they are the long term experts. They know everything there is to Know. Me I'm a newbie still finding my way around.. Old names like Liverbird, Minx01, outrageous_monkey, bham_dave.... and loads I dont knowthe names of. Liverbird used to run this board.:T :T The only great glitch I have found is getting the 200ml P&P beauty serum for £25 instead of £99. ;)

    hi all ..
    been bootsing again today, went to kingston park, some model me were reduced to 75 at cleareance. Also have no 17 skin awakening blush for 1.89. Look similar with the new no 7 petal blusher. A lot of hair colour from loreal and clairol ..also some suntan and also rimmel lipgloss .. they still have girard set, bought one with love notes points voucher which i got from eldon sq yesterday. lots of olay purple GWP. Get one with Olay Definity Cleanser with wrinklie. Also bought the last Loreal Men Anti-fatique.

    Went to Eldon Sq. My first time buying Meal Deal. Got sandwich, fanta bogof and also Creme Egg Minis which have 9 minis in the bag. Then bought another meal deal but this time with Cadbury Dairy Milk with caramel Egg which also contains 9 minis egg. All of this and the 3 minis creme egg can be found downstair. I burnt a lot of calories by walking around sandwich counter, go down to take the chocolate then went upstair again to pay ..Now replacing the calories with all the chocolates ...:) .. also there is 3 putting set left..

    Gave up on my nails- everytime I apply varnish they split/feather! drives me mad! even the sally hansen stuff to stop nails splitting makes them split! Aghhhhh!

    Just catching up on today's posts and spotted this. I find that OPI Nail Envy really strengthens mine, I have stronger nails than I have ever had after using it. HTH

    Thanks to all for the tips my skincare and toiletries have had a good makeover since I started reading this thread. (When I think about all the vouchers I've thrown away in the past.)

    Managed to get the L'Oreal men's packs this morning and also found some Lemsip Plus at 75p on clearance not out of date until Oct 2010.:T :T

  • Thank you for the welcome and I think I am already addicted!:rotfl:

    I went to the ACM manchine a couple of days ago with my daughter and between us we got loads of points vouchers and she got a £5 P & P.

    Today I put my card in and I only got two offers that were both a bit rubbish :eek: Is it normal that once you print coupons that the offers disapear?

    No love notes in Sleaford Boots but lots of the gift sets reduce to £9.xx

    This has happened to me twice now. Put AC card in machine and hardly any vouchers. Went to machine sitting 2 yards away from the first one, and lo and behold, lots of vouchers. They also gave me two different total spend coupons, so potentially combinable -- except that I am trying not to spend money at the moment, just points.

    Enjoy the Bootsing addiction!

    Today I also only got the 2 absolute basic offers from the acm - points with minimum overall spend and points with minimum spend at dot com. Did not even get the usual points offers around store, competitions etc.:confused:

    Well went out Bootsing today in Maidstone - not sure I'm cut out for this - its all very confusing!! LOL!! Plus I don't seem to have the luck for it!! Went into the Fremlin Boots and lo and behold the ACM machine wasn't working!! Was thinking the universe was conspiring against me cos thats 3 Boots and no machines working now!! Anyway managed to find their clearance section which was right at the back - not great selection but got a few bits:

    Fremlins Boots
    Botanics Mens Body Moisturiser - £1.21
    Botanics Mens Sensitive Post Shave Balm - SEL £1.17 but went thru @ 58p due to multisave! (Strange cos both of these were on sale elsewhere fullprice)
    Gillette After Shave Balm 77p
    Xmas wrapping paper - got 4 rolls @ 73p each
    Loreal Elvive Colour Protect Condition (400ml) £1.50
    Passport holder (black with areoplanes) £1.95
    Neutrogena make up remove wipes £1.71
    Total of 40 points
    Got wrinklies

    Then went to 2nd Boots - ACM here working but only gave me pretty rubbish vouchers - 200 points if you spent £25 - 2day only and the 500 extra points if you spent £50!! And that was it!!!!

    Got a few more bits from clearance:
    Chequers centre Boots

    Lee Stafford Dehumidifier spray - £2.88 using £2 wrinklie - originally tried to use these on Lee Staffor minis but SA having none of it!!
    Time Delay Daily Serum - £6.74 using £5 wrinklie
    Sally Hansen Smile Brightening Lip gloss - 50p
    Aussie Shine & coloured hair protection Serum - 50p
    Mini makeup brush set - 50p
    Xmas card holder - 50p
    Total of 40 points
    Ended up with 2 more lots of wrinklies!! Keep trying to get rid of them and they just keep muliplying!!!

    Oh also picked up 3 love notes so if anyone wants the 500 points for Girard PM me your address and I'm happt to post out to you.

    Quite pleased with my bits but its all very confusing!!!
