I didn't know you could get a smoothie with a meal deal. I will have to get one next time. I usually grab a coke:D

I hope you are all having a nice Easter:) I've spent most of the day having a mega clear out. My local charity shop won't know what's hit them:rotfl:

Does anyone know if our favourite shop is open tomorrow? TIA:D

I think most places are open tomorrow, but maybe just Sunday hours.

You've been slacking on the smoothie front - I choose my meal deals by seeing what the most expensive things to have are - triple sandwiches, smoothie and triple cream eggs are a winner.

Well done on your mega clear out - that's what I should have been doing today but never got round to - you don't fancy popping round to my house now do you, while you're on a roll.....:rotfl:

Welldone, what a fab shop, so much stuff, so little spent.:cool:

Am hoping to use my Elle Freebie Mailing Voucher and get these:
Elle Foot Butter @ £3.71
Elle Body Lotion Free with voucher
The range has a third off at the moment so it creates a mini price glitch.;)
I think it will work out with £1.89 to pay roughly, so hope it works.:)

:easter_ba Happy Easter Everyone.:easter_ba

:easter: Hope you all have a great day :easter:

it will;)just make sure you do it before 21st - change over day:)

Can someone cast an eye over my planned shop please, im going round in circles here and im running out of time !


If i cant get the highlight powder with the No 7 glitch and i get an item under £8.80, the total should be £8.80 yes ? ie:

peel £8.80
linelift £0.00 (voucher)
lipgloss £0.00 (342)

total to pay £8.80

or if no linelift,

Peel £8.80
highlight £0.00 (voucher)
lipgloss £0.00 (342)

Ive been up and down this thread and I cant find that many examples so will trawl through the old one for some more inspiration, I know it goes against popular opinion but its really time consuming catching up with this thread when you are looking for 'the answers'. The chat seems so much worse when you read back, reading daily its not that obvious as you only read 2-3 pages at a time. Ive been away for a few days now and ive got ALL of this thread and gods knows what on the other.

Its the main reason im a lurker, by the time ive finished reading my times up (that and the fact i only go to boots every 2 weeks so am always using the glitches rather than finding them)

TIA

Right I hope I am right and understandable.

If you do not get the " magic 3 vouchers " you are best to get something you actually want / need whateve the price.
for example:

Glyco - £17.60
Line Lift £12.70
then say Night sorbet £16.75 (prices are aprox)

YOu would then get charged
Glyco £17.60
Sorbet £16.75
Line lift free so £34.35 to pay.

Then put through the line lift voucher
- £12.70
Glyco voucher
-£8.80
will mean you pay £8.80 for the glyco and £4.05 for the remainer of the sorbet. so total of

£12.85

Hope this is understandable.

BBB I don't think the Line Lift voucher works the same way as the Highlights one... if the above example is followed and if the Line Lift is already free on 342 then the system won't take away another £12.70 as the free Line Lift voucher won't b accepted by the tills (I think plz correct me if I'm wrong); so probably, if my assumption is correct, it's better to purchase

Glyco £17.60
Line Lift £12.70
Another item value less then Line Lift to go FREE on 342 (say for example an item of £10)

The charge would b then:

Glyco £8.80 (1/2 price with voucher)
Item of £10 (Free with 342)
Line lift (Free with voucher)

Thus total to pay would b £8.80? Again apologies if I'm incorrect... HTH

I hope it leads to Scotland Couttsey, as I think it's only up there that Boots and Mr T's are open :eek:

But I could be wrong and hope I am

Funnily enough, Yes! Lol

Mr B's was a little disappointing today- not just because there was litterally no clearance shelves in either of the Mr B's I visited, but I bought a whole rake of clothes for DS birthday, and some more to put away for DD birthday in June- and a lot of them were not properly reduced. Some of the ones that were marked as 50% off, only deducted 25% at the till- only once I got home I realised :rolleyes: But I shouldn't complain, as with the 20% voucher, they still worked as 45% I guess.

No glyco peel for me today, so I still haven't had the chance to try out the magic 3, I think it's probably a little late in the day now to expect an ACM voucher before the 'deal' expires. You win some, you lose some!

On other news, and- sadly- o/t...... We got to the retail park to go to the second Boots, and there was Police and Security crawling all over the place! Parked and walked over to Mr B's only to bump into a friend. I asked what on earth was going on? She told me that Herself, her DH and DS were in Pizza Hut when the whole place was evacuated! There had been a bomb scare/threat :eek:
Usually when you go to Mr B's there is 1 SG that wanders down the aisles, but today there must have been at least half a dozen! (Not a big Boots by any means, one floor, no premium counters or anything) Every shop at the retail park was like that

Glad to be home now though, also managed to get DS a Peppa Pig birthday cake! :j

Hope everyone has had a lovely Easter, and the sun has shone upon you all!
