    Quick question, how often do the machines change the vouchers that they print out?

    Thanks for all of your help on this forum, you seem a lovely bunch. xx

    Sorry snipped:o

    As a rule the ACM changes every 4 weeks, last change was Wed 25th mar so 4 weeks from then( Apr 21st maybe?) But do check throught the month, sometimes you get more of ones you have had already or you may get some new ones too!

    Finally got rid of the £5 moc on Roc (I'm sure SS or geordie_lass could fit that into a poem LOL) .....snipped...
    lol passion8 you might wish you'd never said that...:rotfl:


    There's a lass from the north by the name of Passion8
    Who wears a coat with ten buttons (though she only fastens eight)
    She oft frequented Boots on a daily shopping mission
    But Passion didn't enjoy the SA's smiles of recognition

    She went off for the weekend on a trip to the Big Smoke
    It was supposed to be romantic, just Passion and her bloke
    The romance was a smokescreen though, just for the sake of appearance
    Passion's secret mission was to raid Boots London clearance

    Enjoying anonymity, no fear of being recognised
    No longer would Passion have to wear her collar over her eyes
    For two whole days she wouldn't have to give two flying hoots
    As she wandered unfettered round the aisles of Colney Boots

    The day dawned sunny and Passion was soon on her way
    Her OH was packed off to the Tower for the day
    With a fistful of perkies, bulging brag book and a MOC
    Passion strode into Boots in search of verucca socks and RoC

    The shop was vast, the clearance shelves with goodies were a-heaving
    For three whole hours she prowled those aisles and showed no signs of leaving
    Passion was in her element as she gathered treats for herself to a-pamper
    What she didn't think she'd use would go nicely in a hamper

    Shelves plundered and at last it was time to join the queue
    Passion's feet were aching and she longed to take a pew
    But as our lass reached the tills, her dismay grew, she couldn't mask it
    It was never meant to be.....


    ...for her handle had no basket!
  • That is Brilliant, Geordie Lass!! :)

    thankyou :) still got some time to buy stuff for charity event. its going to be brilliant.
    Evening all hope you are well, havent posted for a few days, kids sick again:(. Its an endless circle with 3 of them:rolleyes:.

    Anyhow, if anybody wants a 250 points when you buy stayperfect foundation compact and liquid or/ and humiliating powder vouchers i have them going spare would love to trade for 2 of the £2 of professional haircare vouchers from mailing if any one is interested, pls pm me. Also i know that some of you are getting coulours that you may not be able to use or dont like with the illuminating powder, if so i have some of (the pink ones so if you want to swap for the other colours do pm me pls. Tia

    Also op said they found some almond extracts bags reduced?? Well i also found these and used the magazine vouchers on them (no bleeps) so look out for them cause it looks like its nationwide.

    Kings heath branch have reduced lip laquers and very helpful sa with dark hair will try all vouchers:D. Also there was one lee stafford box of tricks, i was tempted but already got one for myself and one for my mum. The hairdryer is great and the straightners are great, i have quite dry fine hair hth. There were also perfume box sets reduced including girard £6.xx kelly brook amongst others, loads of electric toothbrushes too. They also have no7 mens gwp at £6.50 and helpful sa tried to see if they went through 342 and they do. Didnt actually get them was just curious, so go get them, they are dotted around store.

    I also have some elle, olay gwp, loreal, no7 men and womens, 17 smoky eyes, sanctuary gwps if anyone has some fcuk or s&g that need new homes?:D

    Well i think thats everything, so sorry about the long post and a big thanks to all you lovely people who post on here, helping us to make the most out of our shopping:D. Since i started just b4 the 50% of sale i now have gorgeous thick and shiny hair , and my skin is so soft and instead of my basic cheap as i can find stuff i have loads of premium brands that cost me next to nothing or even nothing. Thanks again peeps.:T:A
  • I don't know how you lot do it. Huge shopping lists and spend about 2p. I managed to spend £29 of real money today. I did get a load of reduced med for my christmas stash and 3 no7 lip lacquers for me. Can anyone tell me how I am supposed to use these. Do I put the colour on then the clear stuff in the other end?
    I got the bourgeois (sp) tweezers for 83p with the pooey.
    Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination:beer:

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Popped out to a small local store today and had no decent vouchers just the usual opticians, money off when you spend £30 or watever it is. I wasn't impressed :mad:

    No it doesn't. :-( Paid full price today (thankfully at least on 3 for 2), and a toy, used illuminating voucher - it beeped. SA said I've not spent enough. I said is over £40 not enough. :mad: He spoke to another SA who for some strange reason suggested scanning my re-usable bag (yes I ended up getting cahrged 10p for bag I was reusing :mad: ) but I just wanted out of there. The other SA also said it was because the voucher had yesterdays date and it had expired but I pointed out twice it was valid until April. Another SA was called but as she was busy a team manager came over and tried scanning etc - eventually just deducted it off and asked if I would like 300 extra points. I was thankful as if I hadn't got all flustered I would have printed one off the AC machine anyway.

    What a horrid experience and thank goodness for understanding team manager. Anyway I didn't even really need 3 x R&R serums at that price or the powder for £40. :confused: Oh well back in my stash...:rotfl:
