    Oooh, I think we should battle it out for No1 Boots Addict Curry Maker. Bet you mine is better than yours. It's all authentic and gorgeous. LOL.

    Hi mimi sweets, my curries are authentic too, bet i could give you a run for your money lovely;):D. Scrap that , dont want the money, an afternoon bootsing with you in Leeds sounds much more fun:A.
    You laugh because I'm different......I laugh cause I just farted!

    Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. (A.C)

    Also the original glitch was found and explained by me, not Broclo (although you did explain it good).

    If I remember correctly this was your first glitch - what a great one to start with :T Well done and thanks for sharing. Have managed it once and still checking ACM every day to see if I get another powder voucher, if not will make the most of the other 2 vouchers.
  • Hello all.... not been posting on here for ages but I dip in and out.

    Am going to a big boots tomorrow and am armed with No7 glycolic peel voucher and line lift vouchers from ACM. Can anyone recommend how I should use these to best effect? The item I actually need is the Eye Brow Pencil that comes in the box which costs about £12. Can someone tell me which item will work out free if I use these vouchers and how much will be left to pay?

    BTW - am amused to see the Minimode baby catalogue voucher is now being combined en masse with reduced stock. I posted on here nearly a year ago that this worked but sadly never got the credit on the opening page of the thread.:confused: DS has been dressed head to foot in Minimode ever since :D - and I was using old Parenting club minimode vouchers in conjunction with the catalogue vouchers and it worked out you got stuff around 70% off. I just hope now other people are doing this that he will still have some clobber left!!
    Thank you for the orignial post about the vouchers. I wondered who the lovely Bootser was. I have saved a lot of money thanks to you. Unfortunately my dd1 is turning 6 sooon so will have outgrown them (may have to start her smoking to stunt her growth a bit - JOKE). Am sure dd2 has many more years of bargains left though . Thank you x
    I may have lupus but it doesnt make me useless! :rolleyes: I am a true believer in Karma, and am a typical cancerian. I have a hard outside, but am mushy on the inside.:o

    We could do a charit curry making event.

    Answer to question on glyco and line lift vouchers, please skip if you don't want to read this again.

    Hi mi55mp

    Glyco is £17.60, line lift £12.50 and your pencil £12.00.

    3 4 2 will make you pencil 0.00, hand over line lift voucher making line lift 0.00, then ½ price glycol making glycol £8.80.

    Total spend £8.80, less than the price of the pencil you actually need.

    Has anyone had a highlight voucher from the ACM recently? I had one when they first appeared, but got confused at the checkout so ended up not using it but the SA took it from me anyway. I know people have mentioned getting the Line lift voucher or peel voucher in the past few days, but just wondering whether its worth putting off buying an illuminator pen that i want incase the voucher appears before change-over day. Tia :)

    Hi all, not been too well lately, and been Confined To Barracks, so I was very pleased today to be taken out "for a short drive" - so naturally I asked if we could go to Boots!

    I didn't want to have the Peel, even though I had the voucher, but did want some more P & P Beauty Serum.

    I scanned:

    P & P Serum (£18.50)
    Line Lift (£12.50)
    Powder (£10) Total cost of goods: £41

    Then I scanned:

    Line Lift coupon
    Powder coupon

    and I used my over 60s 10% discount and paid £6.65 for all 3, which I thought was very good value! :j:j

    My friend, the BV, has been doing the Peel/Lift/Powder glitch in London, with London prices, and has been receiving £2.38 change!!

    Hi Sandra, so nice to see you back on here.:hello: I hope you are soon back to full strength. I see you haven't lost your bootsing mojo though, well done ;) and neither has BV by the sound of it.

    I added some extra to my basket so I wouldn't get change back. (OK so I am a chicken):o
