    Hey everybody. Went into Central 12 in Southport today after work but didnt stop long as had a bag of asda shopping with me that was weighing me down and as I had to go back to asda to get passport photos later I decided I wouldnt kill my arm then and would call into boots later on as well.
    Didnt even stay in long enough to use the acm, although as I have had my card years and rarely shop in boots (have only started shopping at boots cos of seeing the glitches here - thank you lovely people for posting the glitches!:D) I doubt I would have any useful vouchers in the machine! They would have taken the card off me years ago if they realised I wouldnt be spending much in Boots:rotfl:but thats slowly changing!
    Anyway.... I saw the TB things on a stand straight in front of you as you walk in, along with other mens gift sets such as a silver looking gillette bag and some KOS Razor sets. Didnt buy any TB as hadnt any hands to carry anything else and as there was a queue so thought I would go back later on. Does anybody know if there are any glitches from buying a combination of the any of the mens gift sets? I didnt notice whether there was a 3 4 2 sign up on them or what prices they were but has anyone tried any different combinations?
    Thanks
    Heath

    Had some good shops y'day but will post about them later. Bought 2 sets of 3 x TD for £7.33 so for 6 TD pd £14.66, real bargain...:T had not been able to find it @ my local as they appeared sold out but found them in another. Thanks Rubylou...:T Tried to read the receipt to understand the glitch and what seems to happen is the discount of 1/2 price comes off not only of the 2 items to pay on the 342 offer but also on the 3rd item which is free... having said that am a bit confused how some bootsers have been unable to get them @ the above price & having 2 pay £14.66? :confused:

    Also re Method coupon from the baby mag it still works on Method kids which were reduced @ £1...

    hi suzi,

    i agree tpark is often better than tcentre - i always go in there before the tcentre, the regents road one is great especiallya s you can get other fab bargains at hb and tkmaxx

    i also like the two stockport shops and the 2 bury shops

    if i had time i would do a bootsing tour of the north west :rotfl:
    bargain shopping is the only way to shop :j

    I tried to use the method voucher last week and it bleeped. Ohhhh I've just had a thought, maybe it's because I tried to get 3 (with 3 vouchers) ; the voucher says one per transaction, maybe that's what it was bleeping at that rather than the product its self. Did you just get one?

    I got 3 of these this morning in aintree and I got charged £14 odd, I was gutted that the glitch didnt work for me, :confused: I felt like crying cos I made a special trip there to get the sets:cry:

    They wont go to waste though with fathers day coming up but I really only wanted them because of the glitch.

    They must have changed something since I went, as I only paid the £7 for the three.
    3 stone down, 3 more to go

    Because it's a Boots voucher, if u have more then 1 in a transaction it will only accept the one... so if u want to use, say, 3 vouchers for 3 Method products u'll have to put them thru 1 at a time, so 1 voucher for 1 Method in 1 transaction; for 3 one would have to do 3 separate transactions...

    Hi ladies, I havent been bootsing for a while as saving up for my bubba but did manage to get loads of baby stuff last week and it seemed daft to miss out on the TB sets seems as I have six men to buy for over the year and my mens stash is nowhere near as good as my ladies one!

    Does anyone know when the double points and money off selected buggies finishes on .com? We finally found a buggy we agree on in a catalogue but need to see it in the flesh before ordering, just dont want to miss out as its £100 cheaper at boots at the mo. TIA

    When it was rung up at the till you should have just said " oh damn sorry I have left my purse at home" I have done this on several occasions when a glitch didn't work lol.;)
