Thanks for the tip off about the new voucher Sam, I've not been able to get out to get the last one but now I've got a reason to make an effort tomorrow.

(face mask sachets x 3 are 1.25) and 200 pints back.

You might need more than a detox after 200 pints!!

Got some new AC vouchers today, but unfortunately no EI or Hair Science. Did manage to pick up 2 hair gels (can't recall which range) where SEL said £1.75 but there were 2 of the old packaging style which scanned at 44p with 100 points a piece in return. Thanks to the original poster on this one, impossible to have known otherwise.

Picked up some more bodyform.

After "buying" a few at Boots with vouchers on, went past Wilkinsons on the way back to the car, so thought I'd see whether they were selling it cheap too - which they were - 99p with the vouvher on as well - confused the SA, superviser and the till because the £1 voucher is a higher value than the product you're buying ("well that just can't be right" unquote!). They were convinced I was buying the wrong product, and after drawing the attention of half the shop to the lady buying sanitary towels, said that as the till had accepted it, they would have to let the transaction stand...

I just did a double take when I saw your post. I thought I'd posted it but I knew I didn't lol. Then I noticed the 67 not 61.

Hi everybody
had a pretty rubbish trip to Boots in Birmingham City Centre today. Honestly i must be the worst shopper around as i never seem to find any bargains(Sob, sob, sob!!) or we must have the rubbishest (that isnta real word is it??) Boots store in the world. I havent had an EI voucher, theres no old style TS, no hard candy makeup. NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING (i'm getting all jittery now as i need a BOOTs Fix )
Please can someone tell me where to look as i went round the store twice today, i got some of the new style TS for hubby for valentines and after knocking off the £4 it came to £9.66!! stupid woman that i am, i didnt realise i should have picked up a couple of packs of chewing to push it over £10.00 to get the voucher!! and the crabby SA didnt say anything either. I also had a choccy voucher which i tried to use and she smugly told me that they had run out yesterday, so i was even more annoyed!! not a good day.
i need a hug!
but well done to everyone else on getting the goodies.

cant find a hug so you'll have to have this :kisses3:
I think we've all missed a voucher by a few pence - so don't beat yourself up about it - you won't do it again!

Today in my local store there was a 200 points on the AC machine for detox toiletries. The detox is in the sale at the mo (half price I think). BEWARE the 200 points only gets counted once on each transaction but when you're at the ac machine you can always print off multiple vouchers and put the items through seperately (face mask sachets x 3 are 1.25) and 200 pints back. Not bad :heartsmil



Hi could you please let me know what these sachets look like and where they ar about in the store.

thanks

Hi brummiebird433, sorry to hear about your bad day, aren't there ANY bargains in your store?? Have you looked for reduced Lynx? coz you can use the Lynx Click voucher with these..one per item but the machine gives you multiples. I got my reduced TS stuff fromt he shelf displaying the new stuff, it was all mixed up, just look for the old style logo...I think its a circle... Look for the Bodyform there should be some of those, if not check out Morrissons, Superdrug or Tescos they all have them. Hope you find some bargains soon. Good luck.

In my store (Wokingham) the detox products are just sitting on the two shelving units they have in the middle of the main shop floor. I'm not sure where they were before that (I had never noticed the products before). The packaging is white frosted plastic with a mottled lilac panel on. The items in the range that they have on offer in W'ham are the salt scrub, hair shamp/buff duo, masks (3 sachets in small plastic box) and body brushes (again - boxed). I imagine they were previously sitting with the natural collection / mediterranean products.

Hope this helps :heartsmil
