  • Took DH for a ride on the DLR - so sweet! He was like a child pointing to everything! Then we went to Canary Wharf:

    Shop One
    Sumptuous Bath Soak (I have enough of this to bathe the world!)
    Used 250 points from GWP, 100 points from ACM, Perkie
    £2.02 to pay and £3.50 back in points

    Shops Two & Three
    Identical to Shop One. SA said "You could have got 3 for 2 and a GWP". I pointed out that it would have cost me more. She scanned the things and said "You're right! Well that doesn't seem fair" and winked ;) and put a GWP in my bag! I thanked her profusely. :T See, you win some, you lose some.

    Then we had a 2 for 1 at GBK and DH was very impressed and kept looking at people in the l-o-n-g queue and saying "he's got a voucher, she's got a voucher"!

    Then we went to the other branch with SS tills.

    Shop 4
    P & P Day Cream cost £19.50, less over 60s discount £17.55 and GWP
    Used 250 points from previous GWP, 100 points from ACM, Perkie, £5 from ACM
    £7.55 to pay, £3.50 in points, gained GWP, Wrinklie, Hairy & Perkie

    Shops 5, 6 and 7
    Time Delay Moisturising thingy £5.27 after over 60s discount
    John Frieda Serum £1.95
    Used Wrinklie & Hairy each time, 27p to pay each time

    Wombled freely round the exit, as the SA who was hovering by the SS tills was giving the vouchers out, and Rich People were just dropping them into the empty baskets! Can you imagine dropping a Perkie!! :eek: :eek:

    Still have 4 Wrinklies & Hairies to use tomorrow, but have exhausted my supply of P & P £5 vouchers now, and 100 points ACM, and the 250 points in the GWPs last till the end of April. So now I shall just concentrate on the Clearance items.

    Topped up my phone with £10 worth of points acquired today. DH was so impressed how I managed to get so much for so little!

    Doing lots of London Boots tomorrow, plus my pay-what-you-like lunch, plus Thriller and ................ an icecream! :rotfl: I get so excited by so little!

    Have a great weekend everyone.

    hi sally they were near the perfume counter they were over 20 one when i left the shop before closing time and i m 100% sure they were 3.90 :cool: and other staff as well :rolleyes:

    Hi there fellow luton Bootsers,

    In answer to Sally06's original question I went into our local this morning too as I had a hair appointment at 9.30 and I saw the stand with the Nivea DNage Zone (I got one at £7.80 the other day!!) and I first only saw all of them at £7.80 and then found one (and checked them all) for £3.90 and took it to the till. There was only one SA serving at first and she didnt think that it would work with the £5 off skincare voucher but agreed to try it. Needless to say it did!!! Sorry but I guess that must have been the last one!! Maybe they will reduce the rest.
    I picked up some T&G conditioner for DD No1 and handed over the 100 points voucher and it beeped!! The till said conditions not met!! This happened the other day too but the SA added them. Today the SA said 'no' though. Dont know why it stopped working cause It worked on the T&G that I got last week reduced!!! Maybe I should have given her the points voucher first?:confused:

    I went back after my hair appointment to use my new £5 off No7 voucher and picked up a Brow Perfector, P&P handcream and GWP and used the £5 off P&P (my daughters!!) and the £5 No7 new one and paid £9.30. I am going to Milton Keynes tomorrow (had the week off work and convinced DH to take me (any good stuff in there at all?)) and was hoping to use another £5 off P&P and the £5 No7 and the 250 points from the GWP. Does this beep at all and is there an order I should put the vouchers through.
    Also when I got home there was a sample from Boots of Olay Regenerist wrinkle filler with a 500 points coupon to use in Boots on any Olay Regenerist product. Has anyone else got this and have they tried it with the £5 off wrinklie for say the thermal polisher at £6 odd.... which I would have to pay about £1 something and get 500 points back?
    I have two £5 off P&P I printed today from my DD's card if anyone wants one!! I have 2 first class stamps ready and a postbox outside my house (need to post before 5.30pm though) for the first 2 to PM me?
    TIA.......

    Called in both Merrion Centre and Albion St Boots in Leeds, but was rushing round so nothing new to report, but managed to get a couple more ACM £5 No7 P&P vouchers and wondered if there was anyone with a spare perkie who fancied a swap so I could try using one of each together?

    Still got these left as well that I could chuck in if anyone wants them:
    100 points wyb No7 Body Beautiful * 2
    100 points wyb any 17 Trio Eyeshadow * 2
    Save 1/3 wyb Boots Expert Sensitive facial skincare * 2
    50 points wyb any Boots Baby Expert * 3
    3 for £1.25 on any Heinz Mums Own Recipe Jars 128g
    2 for £6 on any Philips Avent soothers

    Will be around for the next hour ish, but might not get chance to check again after that in time to post them so be quick!:o
