Looking for a bit of advice Bootsers -
I bought some patently obvious hand foamer when I saw it reduced to 80p ish, but I don't like the smell
. Is it worth me keeping the bottle, as its a "foamer" and putting other (nicer smelling and cheaper
) handwash in it?
I got some naked juniper handwash today for 98p, so I'm chuffed with that, and will use the contents of that instead at the mo.0 -

Boots disney moisturising baby bath £1.95
Boots disney baby lotion free as a BOGOF
3 x S&G mini hand food 40p *
*He had to void the sale and put the disney items through on their own and then had to put the S&G through in a seperate transaction. When I got to the till I explained that the voucher/coupons were 'akward' to scan. When they beeped, he did say 'oh, you have'nt qualified on your amount spent' I replied that no qualifying spend was mentioned and it did'nt state no minis, he trotted off for a supervisor, who said 'just put them through at 20p and scan this' It was a little barcode tag under the till, laminated, written on it 20p.
I handed over three vouchers but he only needed 2 as he still put it through on 342 :A which I did'nt expect to get. My receipt states
S&G mini H Fd HC50 .20p
S&G mini H Fd HC50 .20p
S&G mini H Fd HC50 20 NOW 0.00P
saving 20p
Total to pay 40p :T
'snipped'
All ready for some success following your fantastic example.....picked up 4 as had 4 coupons, SA told me on 3 4 2, which she would try to process with the coupon (all going so well) coupon bleeped, SA went and found supervisor who had a good read, agreed to override, went to till then remembered.... 'this is a new range due in at end of month'....why was the supervisor you had not nearby? Never mind picked up another couple of L'oreal mens sets for hubby, so a complete waste of time. Unfortunately no other stores in area stock the minis, so looks like a no go for me. Just wanted to give the range a try as am an S&G virgin, and also get a couple for presents for sisters.
Anyone know if worth a drive out to Ely or Peterborough to try S&G there? Many thanks for any advice

Evening all, i have got a little confused , When the offers for 150 points on tg, ts and ug first came out they worked on minis and reduced itsems is that still the case, or has this changed? I have seen a number of posts with people saying they were having problems and wondered what the situation was, as am going bootsing tomorrow. Thanks to all.:DYou laugh because I'm different......I laugh cause I just farted!
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. (A.C)0 -

They definitely still work with reduced items - I used a T&G one today on reduced shampoo. I also had a Model Me reduced item, handed over both, and the £2 was deducted with no beeping at all.
If you just buy Model Me, the till beeps, but then you just point out that Model Me is a T&G product, and the SA should manually add your points (well, thats whats always happened with my reduced Model Me anyway - 5 times so far
). 0
