Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 54 - Post your finds here

Just back from a very quick visit to Welwyn Garden City Boots. A fair few bits of reduced shampoo and hair styling, but I am very OK for haircare, so resisted!

I couldn't resist this-though. It was reduced to £2.45, and I used a hairy, so 45p! Price on .com is £9.78

Here is the picture from .com:

Yesterday, I was really happy to find my favourite shampoo, with a reduced sel£1.35:j:T
I took 2 to the till handed over hairy and paid 70p for both:Ton my way out of the store I wombled 2 hairies. I went back for 4 more T&G and the SA put them all through in one transaction. He scanned both hairies with no beeps and I earned another hairy on a £1.40 spendI'm not complaning though:D:Tthis must be a glitch. I'm going tp try using 2 hairies again in one transaction and see if it happens again:)

I went to the Fosse Park store yesterday and printed out all the ACM coupons. I didn't have time to look properly in the store. so I put then in my purse to use another day.

One of the coupons was 350pt for £35 spend ( valid yest only).
All the others had 30th June exp. Including 200 pts for albums or frames.

I went to my local store ( Wigston, Leicestershire) and had a proper look.
I found on the clearance shelf some blue "baby" photo frames £6 down to £1.45 so I went to the till and asked SA if they were BOGOF.
" Yes" she said. I handed over my card and ACM voucher. She said "I could not use it as there is no ACM in our store". I said I had used them in the past from other, larger stores. (Was she right?)

Then she said they were only valid on the day of printing. It had a clear expiry date of next week.

I asked her to try it.........it did not beep! She said she may get in trouble with the manager for accepting the coupon.

I paid £1.45 for 2 really nice picture frames and got 200pts extra.

i found some reduced 17 nail varnishes today and some 17 eye shadow. the eye shadow did not work with the gwp.

i got one nail varnish for 65p and one for 85p so got the gwp for a £1.50 spend so really chuffed with that.

also got an iggle piggle in a wooden boat for £2.**

i am very tempted to get the new no7 mascara to get the gwp in the tin, not that i need a new mascara, does anyone have it, is it nice?

I got a GWP the other day with reduced dazzle dust and DD got one with reduced solo eye shadows. Which eye shadow did you try to get the GWP with? TIA:D

I have a voucher with my name on for 300 points on a £20 No 7 spend and my siste's given me one for £5 off a £10 No7 spend which has her name on it. Can anyone please tell me if I would be able to use these together?

The SA may not know the T's&C's for Advantage card if they don't have a machine instore but yes, you can use ACM vouchers in any Boots, regardless of whether they have an ACM. This from Boots website:

Why doesn't my local store have an Extra Offers Kiosk?
We have selected our larger Boots stores to house our Extra Offers Kiosks because they have a wider range of products than our smaller stores and therefore we can increase the number of offers available. Coupons can be used in any Boots stores as long as the coupon has not expired and the product is stocked. There are some Extra Offers Kiosks in smaller stores to ensure you don't have to travel too far to your nearest Extra Offers Kiosk.

Also, vouchers are valid until the expiry date, not just on the day of printing. Total spend vouchers are only valid on the day but it states that on the voucher.
