I presented a P & P Serum, Line Lift and Highlights at Lakeside, at the beginning of The Glitch, at a manned till (no ss ones there), produced the Line Lift & Highlights vouchers, but the SA insisted I had to pay over £16.
She scribbled all over them, and called the No 7 assistant, who said they couldn't put more than one voucher through. So I said I'd leave it, but could she write on them that I'd changed my mind about the purchase.
I then presented the identical items and vouchers yesterday at Sedley Place, at the No 7 counter, everything in exactly the same order, and it all went through, without any problem! :T I paid £6.15!
Let's hope the next glitch goes through beautifully for you and you don't have to get The Tremors as well!

I will never understand Boots tills, well done for trying the same vouchers at a different store with success.:T
I did my second magic 3 at the weekend, but only used 2. (I didn't want another peel)
so I followed your example and got
The P&P serum
Highlight powder
Line Lift
For the grand sum of £6.15.
I did it on a SS till again, as I just did not want to chance it on a manned till.
So thanks Sandra for 'testing' that transaction our first
Looking forward to see what wonderful things we will get in the new vouchers from ACM and also the new voucher (Not sunglasses again hopefully) :think:~ What goes around comes around ~0 -
I never see the "bargain" bit in Boots either! I always enter the Albion St store in the entrance next to what used to be called "Zavvi"?0

Found them, thanks! Unfortunately not as cheap as everyone else seems to get them though - seems to always be the case for me! No Highlights powder things left either so couldn't get that, rubbish!0 -

The clearance shelf is upstairs, right by the door to the shopping centre, near all the toys. Although they do move it around from time to time just to keep us Bootsers on our toes!

The clearance stand is upstairs near the entrance/exit but don't rush to get to it it's not usually much good.Maybe worth a look if you're passing.Bullsfacey:hello:0 -

I also bought the beauty serum for £18.50 but got charged the full value of the serum so no extra £10 off for me. I really can't afford to paying out for things I don't need (already have the serum and have never actually used it). I think I need to re-evaluate my bootsing
Sorry to hear that the glitch didn't work for you! This has happend to me a few time but I just say 'Oh........I've done my sums wrong! :eek: Can I leave it, I thought it was going to be less than that! ' Hold me head high & walk away! Never feel you have to go through with the transaction especially when you don't need or really want it! Better luck next time!

What a gorgeous day,wish I could go for a nice walk instead of being stuck in the office.
The one day I walk past Boots and don't go in for a quick look they reduce the NC bags! darn it. Hopefully there will be some left at home time!!! Thanks for the tip off! :T:j0 -
I haven't been Bootsing in ages, but thought I would try the Peel/Line lift combo - very pleased with my shop -
1st basket - Glyco peel, Line lift, No 7 mascara, Bourjois NV remover
- used "magic 2", pooey, 100pts wyb No7 mascara, 100pts wyb any mascara.
Almost got out the door but decided to go round again!
2nd basket - Time resisting day cream, Line lift, Sumptuous bath soak, Bourjois pink tweezers, 2 small bars Green & Blacks choc (reduced from 83p to 50p), OJ, Extra ice spearmints
- used line lift vchr, pooey, double pts coupon & 150pyts wys > £20.
Total spent = £29.94, Total saved = £56.96, Points gained = 546.
This was in Crawley - couldn't find a clearance shelf downstairs, upstairs had No7 bronzer, stocking cream, SPF25 facial, some Ted Baker lippy sets, support tights, and something else I've forgotten.
Found the hanging strip for the Nivea lip trio but they had all gone.
