Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 53 - Post your finds here

LauraR123

I'm new to all this but have been reading these posts for a few weeks now with great interest (it does give me a bit of a headache trying to understand it all!). I went on a mission to Boots yesterday and used my Boots card in the machine, I got a free No7 highlights illuminating powder voucher and 1/2 price glycolic peel voucher both valid until 19/05. What's my best option to achieve maximum saving/freebie??? PS. Boots a Cheshire Oaks is rubbish for sale items - or was it just me not looking properly?

TBH, I read this thread um, regularly, and the only charity question that has come up recently was someone whose school was doing a charity event but she was pretty vague on the details. What other issues were there? Umless it wasn't on this thread, in which case I stand corrected.

I could post the links to the original posts, but do not want to drag up hassle, I was simply letting people know that I had as the issue had been raised and some people would have fully read the post concerned

Fair enough. Must have been somewhere else then.

Which charity did you raise funds for? You haven't said.

Hold on a minute, did everyone that is getting the new mailing vouchers get some about a month or two ago? If so, I am due some, no doubt they will be the "150 points when you spend £20 or more" ones. Bullish! *** Hoping to get some cheap stuff with the binnies. Hopefully all the cheap items will not be out of stock still. If so, I am so not gonna be a happy bunny! *** I'm sure my posting on this forum yesterday has been deleted. Wonder why that is? Hmm indeed! Does that mean they want me to clear off?

Did you say anything in the missing posts that may have upset anyone?

Me? Upset anyone? Oooh Mel, you don't know me at all! I don't upset people at all. I don't actually know anyone on here anyway so would be pointless me upsetting anyone. Oh well. *** Anyway, I have press ups to do. Keep me posted about jobs! LOL.

I doubt anyone wants you to clear off but perhaps if you were offering vouchers then your post would have been deleted as against the rules?

Reference the above posts about charities and donations, this is not allowed on MSE as per the rule here.

This includes the gifting of things for charities, if you want to do this then please do it for your local charity as problems have arisen in the past and if you organise your own gifts then you can be sure your chosen charity will indeed benefit from your generosity. This rule is in place for your own safety as you really shouldn't give out your personal details on the internet to people you don't know.

I think it was - and I always blooming forget its there!! I MUST remember to try there next time. I've been twice & got bargains both times! The first time was when they were selling off the Lee Stafford Box of Tricks. Were the reduced cosmetics No7 too? The TC bargains were on the run of shelves coming down from the pharmacy, I think its at the side of the lift? (I never take much notice! Its the square thing in the middle upstairs! If you got to the top of the escalators, you'd turn right & then left & they're on your left)

Thanks for telling me where the TC bargains are. Was away for w/e so haven't had a chance to go there yet. No, I don't think any of the reduced cosmetics were No7. Shame!

Your right I never did say, I'm also glad I did not after someone on mse basically homing away info and strange occurances since!

I however have named them on another forum, to which many can testify.

I understand posting about charities, but still felt I should update people as the baskets would not have been half as lovely without the finishing touches

Is there a thread for pictures of the Baskets, as I am really wanting to do baskets for people - but when I try they look like the left over reductions that no one would want Would love some advice and tips on doing them x
