  • Chuffed with my purchases tonight , managed to get 2 of the NC bag sets ( thanks for the piccy otherwise I would not have known what I was looking for x) my Dad was with me and he used his points ( which I have helped him accrue ) so got 2 bag sets for 220 points ( well 220 dads points x):D

    we should arrange our very own bootsers version of 'come dine with me':) and we would get to mouch around in each others wardrobes and cubards to find out who has the biggest boots stash:rotfl:


    A good idea in theory Sally, but we would all be so busy checking out the stash of the host, there would be no-one to do the cooking :confused:

    They have them at the Fort (was there tonight) but they're still full price unfortunately :(
    Clearance there was very poor, a few reduced deodorant SELS and that was about it really...xxx

    thanks for the info. I find the fort is always rubbish for sel and clearance its actually one of my least favourite stores tbh.

    I was there last week and I see they have moved the clerance stand to right next to the ss tills :eek: we are never gonna find any bargains with it being there.

    Town is much better but just feel its a big hassle when going with my son as he always starts crying when we go shopping lol

    The last time i was in it was "outside" the SS tills and as you walked in (if that makes sense!) but tonight it was actually right inside the SS tills area! A few Easter eggs, condoms and various other bits of junk were all that was gracing it im afraid!
    Yip, town is generally better-OH works in the city centre and goes to work with a list most days ;) (and an ac full of points to buy lunch to soften the blow :rotfl:)

    just a quick visit - have been away & not bootsing for hols. Glad to see you are well & back on form SS! :T
    Have too much to read tonight so will catch up tomorrow if I can, but did notice the curry competition - I'll chuck my hat in (I also have a secret weapon, my mum! :p Ok that is not so secret now lol :rotfl:) cos I am an authentic curry cook and a mean muffin baker! :cool: Although, looking at the size of my boots stash, I am waay behind on the that one compared to some on here!;)
    I also have 2 sets of 2 the Magic 3 hopefully waiting for another humiliating voucher - but didn't find any at the one Boots ACM I managed to visit (Cardiff Bay). They did have a few reduced reading glasses and some Balm Balm stuff reduced at back. Nothing else of interest but only had a few mins to whizz through as family were waiting impatiently outside. :A

    I save a lot of posts as I read them just in case. :confused: I then add them to my glitch list and take it shopping with me. Also it saves me searching for them later when I do have the vouchers.


    I have started to send myself texts of all the extra bits and bobs that people have spotted on their travels that I want to look out for. When I am reading through posts, I jot down the various things, then text it to myself.

    Then, when I am in a Boots, I look as if I am studying something important on my phone when I am actually sneakily reminding myself of all the bargains!;)

    As I almost always have my phone with me, I almost always have my Boots glitches/bargains list with me....:D
