Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 52 - Post your finds here

Tiara_2

Hi Lea_t88 :hello:

A friend tried to do this last week. The till accepted the line lift voucher, however it didn't deduct the £12.70 from the total- I think it deducted £0.00 as the line lift was already free on the 3 for 2. It's a bit strange as others have got the highlight powder voucher to deduct £10 from the total even when it is the cheapest in the 3 for 2 and already free

So if you want to combine your two vouchers, I would suggest your best bet is to pick a 3rd item which costs less than £12.70. It doesn't need to be from No 7 either- you could pick anything from any of the skincare ranges currently on 3 for 2 . HTH.

Has anyone tried getting the glyco peel, line lift and something which costs MORE than £12.70. Getting the line lift free because of 342 and then getting another £12.70 taken off because of the line lift voucher going through till...

Only have glyco and line vouchers left and wondered if the price of the line lift comes off even when the line lift was the free item (as the powder did). Any help appreciated thanks everyone x

Here we go again...same old same old.....

grabbit used to be so good in the olden days.
Now its all ME ME ME
Nothing changes.

Lurkers lurk for a reason.
I lurk now because I got fed up of being shot down in flames, all because we all have different opinions. Others feel that they don't really have enough to post or feel they are not part of the 'gang'. In life some people chat more than others, this forum is the same. Except you are both in the wrong as this is for glitches, not chat!
You only have to look at how many thanks crazyposhgirls first post gets, to realise how many lurkers there are.

Grabbit is for grabbits, not chat.....no happy birthday, congratulations,you have a pm, come join my secret club, how cute your cat is, charity events etc etc.
This is not directed at anyone in particular so please don't shoot me down in flames!

But we get this all the time, so many times in the past, posters wanting to stop the lurkers. Its nothing new, and will carry on in the future.

I am going back to Lurkersville now....see ya!:D

Morning everyone, I hope you've all had a good few days Bootsing. I didn't have the chance to do anything over the weekend as we were busy Saturday and at Wembley to watch the football all day Sunday:beer::beer:

Finally popped to my local yesterday and it was much the same as last week really. They've got a clearance stand just for some tights but I haven't got any acm vouchers since the last lot ran out so I left them. The normal clearance stand was the usual toothbrushes & a few Med bits but nothing new. Oh, and some Just For Men boxes for £2 I think. I ended up buying just some essentials and spent a pooey on some more L'Oreal eyeshadow.
Nothing new for me at the acm either so all in all quite a boring trip. I hope some of you do better than me. Have a great day.

I was in our local yesterday afternoon too:) Maybe we saw each other without realising?:rotfl:I was the one clutching a see-through wallet stuffed with vouchers;)

Not much in that store at the moment. Clearance is pants:rolleyes:

BTW, the meet-up has been postponed to the end of the month. I will let you know when we have a new date:D

Hi everyone,

I'm just doing my 3rd Gyclo peel treatment and must say I already feel my skin looks and feels so much fresher and younger (and I'm only 32!)

Anyway, the instructions say there's enough for 8 treatments but I've had 3 and have used hardly any (after all it's only 4 pumps of product per treatment!)

It says 'there may be a bit left over' but at this rate it's going to last me far longer than the neutralising pads which I find really annoying!!

Am I doing something wrong or have others found this too?

TIA

Em xXx

Hi
I used it for the first time over the weekend and I instantly felt my skin was smoother, and yes your right I think the pads will run out before the peel, not too sure if you can buy the pads on their own?
Will have another peel session in a few days!!:T

well, you can't please everyone all the time. I for one like the chat and I know others do too. But we all know there are many peeps who don't like it and often complain to the mods. I think this thread would be so boring without it though. And, what about when someone mentions a new glitch. Are we not allowed to discuss it and compare notes on the best way to work the glitch? or is this kind of chat ok?

Was in Leicester yesterday and found myself near Fosse Park. Thanks to everyone on here who mentioned it, car suddenly ignored sat nav and found its way to Boots! (Wish Mr B wld give us downloads for sat navs to find stores.) Cldn't find reduced vitamins but there were loads of tights, tho not much else that I could find anyway. Bought meal deal & 342 tights reduced to £1 each & 50 pts acm voucher. Kicking myself that I didn't think to use other vouchers to get tights effectively for 50p in Boots logic. But got my first pooey and 3 magic vouchers from acm, tho' no time to try them yesterday. Am driving along M62 towards north Wales later today -- any tips on good Boots stores to pop into on way?

hi
NAB i'll find out at the start of the new term.
and everyone whos wondering why it isnt open to the public is because the hall wouldnt fit 700 people(staff and kids) and then the public on top. and its for the general safety of pupils.
i think you have to understand the concept of our school system to realise why they dont allow the general public. this annual charity even is just for pupils and staff to boost school morale before exams etc and obv for charity.
and Angel 50, most pupils at our school are very privelliged, a more common term is "better off" so i dont think they mind giving in stuff or spending money on things. anyway pupils bring in old stuff that they dont want so they dont really mind. a lot of pupils also bake cakes,cookies etc.
it is a shame that they dont open it for everyone but the event is to try and involve pupils, staff etc.
our school have a lot more charity events which raise a lot of money too, e.g coffee mornings, fun runs.
and also i dont think the charity event is such a big thing that it would be coverd by a local newspaper because its just a small, thing in a school.
oh, that was a long post.

Hi HJA,
I can understand that you wouldn't want to disclose too much information on the thread publicly, because of safety issues, but if the school has over 700 pupils and staff, then surely it's highly unlikely that anybody could possibly connect you just from the school's name. And would I be correct in assuming your school is a private school, from what you say about the pupils being "privileged" & "better off"?

I think there are a lot of people on the thread that have been affected by cancer in their lives, and if you could give a bit more information about the charity events that you have asked for donations for, (without compromising your safety or privacy obviously), then I am sure that all the very generous people on here would be only too happy to contribute to such a worthy cause.

Will the other charity events that you mention be open to the general public even though this one isn't?

I couldn't agree more with this. I post when I have something to post that is relevant to the thread I am in. If I want to thank someone, I press their button, I dont feel the need to create a post to say so. If I have something to say to one person only (eg happy birthday, sorry to hear you news etc), I send them a pm.

So many of the conversations in the grabbit thread would be better suited to the chat thread, but it just doesn't seem to happen!

sinw

I think it be best if this subject be discussed on the chat thread - cheers

I disagree with you, i think the boots thread is a very friendly inviting thread. i have never seen anyone shot down in flames for giving their opinion. I think if people want to lurk and not post thats up to them however a forum is about everyone sharing their bargains and glitches, not just a few doing all the work.

I also think it rather unfair for people to get the glitches and bargains but then to complain to the mod that there is too much chat. If you don't want to read all the chat then just skim read.

Saying that it's through the chat that most of the best bargains are worked out so without it we would be worse off for bargains!:eek:
