    well im on dial up at the moment waiting for a new broadband to be installed, and its taken me 3 and a half hours to read this new boots 6 thread. so now im off to boots to try and make it worth my while, ill let u know later. :rolleyes:
    it probably would be good for a chat thread and a seperate bargain thread as ive only found the ei offer in 30 or so pages.

    Want me to start a new thread for Boots discussion only??

    I agree the offers are getting lost amongst all the excitement!!

    What do u all think??

    The other option would be to list all the current bargains on the first post of each new thread. Of course this would mean that the person who starts each new thread would have to update their post as the offers from boots change.

    Oh my goodness... I've just done it too!!

    EI Hand Wash I picked up 10 and the Body Lotion I got 2. I was convinced that it wouldn't work, that Boots might have changed the tills or something. I got £15 worth of points.
    Again, that doesn't sound the right amount of points:-

    12 EI @ 150 points = 1800 points

    Sounds like it only gave you points on the EI Handwash (10 @ 150 = 1500 points)

    Don't want to patronise :) but are the 2 x body lotion definately EI products? If not, take em back!

    Yep, you're right about the points, I was all in a tizz when I got home and posted!

    Yes, the body lotion is definately EI, even the same bottle and label. :)

    I think it's long long overdue to be honest.

    Lose track of who the Board guides/Mods are on here, but if you could get them to have a Boots Offers-only "Sticky" Thread on Grabbit, and a separate "non-sticky" Boots discussion thread on Grabbit, I'd be terribly grateful!

    And if whoever posts in the offers thread keeps it nice and "bare-bones" minimalist with no waffle, that'd be good too. ;)

    It would surely help the site too - one of the Boots thread recently had over 100,000 views of a 100-page thread. That must have drained the servers a bit.

    Armed with a print out list to remind me ;), I had to go to my parents today and afterwards for some unknown reason :confused: the car drove me to Boots :eek: . So I bought:

    8 handwash @ £1.66 BOGOF
    8 body lotion @ £1.99 BOGOF
    2 No 7 Tan Moisturiser @ £9.50 BOGOF (I do use this in the summer)
    1 No 7 Lip Shine @ £5.50
    1 No 7 Hair Spritz @ £5.50

    plus different other things I wanted.
    According to receipt I got 2400 offer points (EI) and usng my double points coupon got an extra 220 points - so it didn't double the whole shop *sighs* :D .

    Did get ...............................................two No 7 bags though :D:D even though the No 7 Summer goodies are on BOGOF the till allowed me two bags.........................................:j . Shall give one of them to my neice for her birthday in March :).

    Receipts says I saved £41.27. I also handed in a voucher giving me £2 off a No 7 nail varnish - which I bought - and another voucher giving me 20% discount on Boots own range of toiletries but just noticed it didn't deduct the £2 or give me the discountl!!! Naughty Boots!

    EDIT
    The EI goodies did not have BOGOF displayed anywhere. So I took one to till and asked if they were BOGOF - just so I didn't look stupid with a load of them and then had to hand them back :p:o:D
