    Hi All :wave:

    I haven't posted here for ages and not been bootsing either. Had a lot going on in RL and been laid up sick so haven't really stepped out of the house!

    Hope you are all ok and enjoying your acm vouchers - i'm dying to see what I have or if I have won the 1000 points. Can't really ask DH to check for me as he gets confused very easily :rotfl: He wouldn't know what to do if I had won :rotfl:

    Loving reading your shopping lists - I always make such a hash of voucher order etc. Sorry to hear of some of the bad experiences - I always worry about the SG even though I've not done anything wrong :rotfl:

    Oh yes, didn't get a chance to use my last purkie :eek:

    Sorry maybe I should have used the chat thread :o

    I'm getting all confusified!!! Can't remember whether it was here I posted yesterday afternoon or the temp site! Anyway, I had a Line Lift and Glyco Peel voucher and decided to buy a P&P handcream so I'd get 342. I wouldn't work at all in Swindon (Brunel Plaza) yesterday and came to something like £27 so I said thanks but no thanks! Today however, it worked fine in MK (Kingston) and even let my use my 250pts voucher (from one of the past GWP) alongside! So for £8.80 I got the Glyco, Line Lift, P&P handcream, 250pts back and a £2 pooey!

    I did absolutely NOTHING different - gave the products in the same order and the vouchers! Isn't it just so confusing that every boots seems to have it's tills set up completely differently!

    Em xXx
    :D Mummy to two gorgeous LO's and always in search of a bargain!!! :D

    does anyone know of any vouchers e.g. £5 off, 500 points etc. that i could use because im going to spend nearly £20 on a pair of curlers in boots
    thankyou
    Hi
    do you mean online? if so try the CODES THREAD , but all those are for a £50 or more spend
    In store the acm might be nice to you and give you 250 wys £25 or in another store 300/350 wys £35. If you can get hold of both, and if you can make up your spend to the higher amount and if you can get a willing SA willing to combine them, that's 500 ish points, but it's a lot of 'ands' !

    I used mine on Saturday Sally ,but stuck to the SS tills. I just kept very calm, and included 3 reduced Med body wash in my shopping.

    Everything scanned fine, and there were no beeps:j:j:j Much to my amazement. I only had to pay 56p, so I made a big show of feeding in the 10p's into the slot.

    I usually set off alarms, and bells ringing everywhere. I should actually just wear a flashing neon sign saying 'look at me'

    Reciept says:-

    Total savings today £42.68...including £11.43 link save and £8.80 Kiosk save coupon

    + 40 pts and a £2 pooey. It was just a flying visit as OH was waiting in the car.:rotfl::rotfl:

    Good luck with yours:T:T and thanks to BBB for discovering it and to evryone who posted about the order, and their success. Ta girls x
