    NICE GLITCH

    Went into large Boots and saw they had the Ted Baker Explore & Navigator Wash Bags half price. Original price was £14.67 now half price at £7.34.

    Thought I would see if they would go through on 3 for 2 and they did :D So I thought I would pay £14.67 for all 3. Total cost was £7.34 couldn't believe it. The till had taken off 3 for 2 but then had taken 3 x half price of each bag, leaving me to pay half price for one wash bag. :D

    Till receipt shows

    Ted Bk Expel Wbag £14.67
    "" "" """ "" £14.67
    "" """" """" """ £ 0.00

    Save

    Saving £7.34
    Saving £7.34
    Saving £7.34

    Total to pay £7.34.

    Thanks so much Rubylou, Just been to Westwood (Kent) & managed to get 3 x Ted baker bags for £7.43 :j:j:j took OH with me & he couldn't beleive it! Then I found some Gillette Fusion Gift sets reduced from £14.97 to £2.50 & they were on a shelf marked 'All mens Gift Sets 3 for 2' When I took 3 to the counter the assistant said they were NOT inc as they were reduced so I just bought 2. Later popped back but went to lovely SA on No.7 who checked the sign & said that they should be 342 so bought another3 & she gave me the extra one free with the 2 previous boxes I had purchased! So 6 for £10 :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.
    Also found some Umberto Gianini (sp?) leave in conditioner (yellow bottle) marked to half price £2.4? picked up 3 & they went thrpough at £1.18 :T was really pleased as I always buy this & I ran out yesterday! Also on clearance Nat collection bath bombs (vanilla) reduced to 45p.....bought 3 but loads left............ so all in all a good day! Daughter happy O/H dumbstruck & fathers day sorted!

    Hi all, Am really annoyed - got the 20% off coupon (out of mag) for Mini Mode and can't find sizes I want in my store.
    They have them online so I thought I could order them to be delivered at said store and pay for them there to get my 20%, but no! You have to pay at checkout.
    Does anyone know a way around this?
    I have already missed the buy 1 get 1 half price.

    Hi,

    I've found a free delivery code for Soled Out Shoes (a Soletrader discount site).

    The code is NEWSFREE.

    Everything on the site is at least 30% off. Some interesting stuff on there, site is a bit slow though.

    Phil

    hmm SPAM anyone:rolleyes:
    I luv freebies

    I went back to the small store to get another perfume. It was Boss Femme reduced to £17.00for 50ml. I then noticed a 75ml for £22.51 so took that one to the till. The assistant said you cant use a voucher. I said I was told you can and then a young assistant appeared and said very nastily "Oh no you cant we had a message from Head Office to say so!!
    So I said well can you try the voucher anyway. The young SA got in a huff and walked off but the one serving me was fine and I said Mr B should not let the voucher go through if it does not work. Anyway she put it through and it was wrongly priced as for the 50ml size. So I got a £40 plus perfume for £12.00. My DD likes it so I am going back tommorow as I have another voucher. I also saw the Ted Baker sets in the next town so will go there aswell!! Off working for 10 days with no shopping time so I have to shop while I can!!

    sorry there isn't a way round it, minimode cant order stock into store and boots have nothing to do with it. the only thing i can suggest is to phone larger stores and boots or minimode staff will be able to hold them for you.

    Hi Sazzledazzle,
    I often find good deals at Westwood Cross & Ramsgate sometimes have a good clearance so too does Margate! I even manage to pick up some good bargins at Herne Bay which is a small shop! One of my favorites is Whincheap.... Always nice little bargins to be had!

    Hi All

    Just been on the Boots.Com website and it says:

    500 points with with two selected Elizabeth Arden products
    with a third purchase receive an 8 hour body cream.And a free gift gift worth £60 with any EA purchases over £40.

    Do you think all three offers would kick in if you bought three EA items costing more then £40?
