Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 7..Read first post for current bargains

OH has started to use the handwash from the EI range (I plonked a bottle by every sink in the house). He seems to like it (comes home from work with dirty smelly hands)...so as long as I can find some more vouchers I will stock up.

Maisie that was a good idea phoning. Not thought of that before and ocasionally do worry about the amount I've got on it :eek: if it went astray.

Maybe Boots Tarts should put the Advantage Card Number in their mobile, so that they can call and cancel their a/c if they are sure their card is lost.

By adding your card number after "Boots" in the name - ie "Boots AC - 123456789" you'll also have a constant note of your a/c number on you.

Begs the question why have I assumed that No7 or Time Delay ones must be better... :P

The Cucumber & Fragrance Free range (of which I'm an expert!) are OK and some of the products are really good - love their cucumber soap for about 80p. If you're on a budget (or just don't want to spend too much) they do the job.

But now I've tried the TD and DR stuff, I can see there's a real difference in quality.

The CC/FF Moisturisers do not fully absorb and are greasy compared with the better stuff (fairly obvious)

The CC/FF facial scrub is like ground glass compared to the gentler TD exfoliator

The FF cleanser/toner was very harsh and really dried my skin.

The CC facial wash however is really gentle - still going thru my last 8 bottles (have developed an OCD in the process! ) - using it up now as bodywash and handwash.

The CC eye creams although a tad greasy are great for moisturising too. (Using them up as body moisturisers - they're too old to be safe for my eyes now.)

Mostly I agree, but please sir, like with 'real money' sometimes a little splurge is okay, right? right? :T

Oh, if you must!

does anyone know what else is under, exactly or only slightly over £1 that can be gotten free or for a few pence with the different mens 100 point vouchers from teh ACM?[/

Not sure, but just be careful with the Trevor Sorbie range that the item isn't defined as "miniature" as IIRC those are excluded from the 100 points offer.

This does rot your brain, because they're all practically the same size, but some are classed as "mini" and others not!

when i was talking to the manager the other day when he was adding the points that the till hadnt added, he said u could use as many vouchers from the machine as u wanted to as long as u wasnt trying to use more than 1 voucher for something u only had 1 of, hope that makes sense. :rolleyes:

It does make sense, a lot of it in fact! It's just so annoying how many SAs aren't aware of this -- the most annoying ones are the ones that insist that it's just one (not one of a kind, or one per product, just one!) voucher per transaction...:rolleyes:

I can advise that the hair gel, 44p, gives you the points.

Hi

I tried to buy 3 Trevor Sorbie products in York and the SA would only let me use one coupon as the till rejected the others so I had to put them back and buy 3 different ranges to get my discount. Has anyone else found this.

Hi, i think ur doing a wonderful and fantastic job on ur first thread, :T :T but its getting longer and longer, i dont know if im the only 1 to think this, but its a pain to keep reading it all to see what u have changed i just wondered if anyone had any ideas of making the edited notes noticeable.
I feel sorry for the people who work all day
and to say this new thread was started this morning and how long it is after a few hours they have lots and lots of reading to catch up on if they follow this thread like i do.
I really hope u dont mind me mentioning this.
Thank you once again liverbird :T :T :T :T :T :T :T :T
