Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 52 - Post your finds here

After some Bootsers ACM vouchers success thought I was in with some luck but not so lucky... tho got the Free Highlight voucher on mine/sis'/MILs card... I also got the following across my cards:

25pts on NC duo eye shadows
100pts Botanics Men
100pts Boots Expert Men
150pts B's Expert Dry Mouthwash
50pts B's Expert toothpaste
Triple pts B's Expert Baby
200pts Expert stretch mark oil
100pts B's tights
100pts B's Original Beauty Formula
100pts Goodworks range

Nothing major there... Well, b4 I left 2 B's I was still confused on how to use the Highlight Free voucher as many had it beeping & some very few didn't... also was not sure how to use it with the No7 342 offer, ie, if I got 3 items and used the voucher or had to get 4 items 4 the coupon to work... decisions, decisions...:rolleyes: & who says we don't plan our shops? N e ways, I got all my shops as it follows:

No7 Highlight Powder @ £10
No7 Trio Eyeshadow @ £5.38 (these were on the 'Last Chance 2 Buy' shelves & it clearly stated Perkies could not b used against them... well, MT 2u all who posted these were going thru with Perkies! :T )
No7 Spec Case/ Compact Mirror/ Credit card holder (Made sure these were higher in price then the clearence items just in case the Perkies didn't work on the eye shadows *** purchased all these 3 as did 3 separate transactions ***)

Went to pay on a manned till as didn't want the Highlight voucher beeping on SS and the SS SA coming over... well, however, the dreaded beep came... The SA advised this was due to the 342 offer and this could not b used in conjuction with this... I, duly, showed my surprise I then asked her to try the Highlight Powder and the Eye shadow knowing the dreaded voucher would beep... it did but still the SA told me I could not have it 2gether on 342; again I tried my luck & asked her to put a 4th item thus the Highlight Powder would not b in the 342 offer... still the till was having none of it... she went to query with another SA who told her to check with the No7 SA... was expecting n e thing by now... to my utter surprise my SA came back and told me the No7 SA had told her they were having problems with the Highlight coupons & to put it thru as 0.00 AND that I could use it in the 342 offer 2!!! No7 SA must have been having a dreadful day, lol!! I must highlight here, that I had not shown my Perkie upto the last moment so as far as my SA knew the Highlights voucher was the only 1 I had... she debated with herself on how to put the transaction thru the tills and told me, on my 1st transaction, the free item was the eye shadow and I'd have 2 pay 4 the c/c holder... on the Highlight Powder she put the item thru as 0.00 and did not scan the voucher! After this she tells me what to pay and I produced my Perkie!!!:D She quickly went 2 say I could not use the voucher and, again (I am getting quite good @ this ) I pretended 2b dim & asked her to scan as had used it b4... and so she did! Voila! My Perkie went thru so 87p to pay!!!

Again on my 2nd transaction the same as above but purchased the Spec case so £1 to pay... and on my 3rd transaction purchased the Compact Mirror so 87p 2 pay! In the end success!!:T Had 1 more Perkie left in my purse so dashed back to get the Eye Palette (& tho it stated could not use with Perkie) went to another manned till & scanned it thru having to pay 38p!

All in all not bad I suppose... Again, a long post tho (runs behind the sofa)...:o

Had the same problem as most of you ladies with beeping illuminating powder voucher today. No7 SA told me that it was not down to me (as if I thought it was!!) but apparently the voucher was not meant to be out until 30th March and so is not being recognised!! :eek:

Still doesn't help us any though does it Keep trying girls!

Bet you've changed your name to "SoapandGloryWashbags" haven't you? :rolleyes: :rotfl:

Btw peeps, as I was buying one the SA took out a funny shaped coloured highlighter thing and started scribbling on the barcode. After exchanging a glance or two she said Boots had provided them to stop people returning reduced goods and claiming full price I was tempted to tell her the exact cost I'd paid in time, fuel, worry etc etc

The scribbling's not too bad that it spoils the effect if giving as a gift, but it is noticeable.

At least the scribbling is on the label. Noticed too late yesteray one of the reduced Med bags I bought had a huge biro mark down it. Can't give that as a gift now. Can't believe I missed it...............well I can I was most probs too excited I found reduced Med in main stores for a change.:rolleyes:

Please can someone tell me how to check that I'm subscribed to receive mailings. I can only see an option to receive email updates, not mailings.

Someone did post yesterday but now I can't find the post.
