    Its ok! Ive got the photo thing to work! Im no longer cursing the thing! Its alright for 4.90. Especially as when i bought a bag of crisps with it that meant I got a hairy! Done this twice now. Went to formby today after school and bought 2 trevor sorbie shampoos that were £1.20 each and got them with a hairy for 40p! SA seemed impressed! The man infront of me bought a No 7 item (not sure what - but it was a black box and cost around £15) and he said he didnt have an advantagge card. couldnt bring myself to ask him if I could use mine and get the points! wish I had though!

    Theyve changed the rules :mad: instead of 300 extra points, it now says that you get 180 offer points and the rest is made up of the 120 normal points!!! Thats hardly worth making a spend up anymore.

    That explains it! Did quite a big shop the other day with phone topup and various bits to use both the acm total spend voucher and the one which came in a mailing and was very puzzled about where the 180 points had come from! Decided I had just remembered wrongly what coupons I had used and resolved to write it down in advance. So thank you for this. Meanie Mr B!

    hi i bought 2 dresses from boots at full price. went to boots today and saw they are half price in sale. heart broken as i paid £32 for both.
    would boots take them i have till reciept and then buy them again with the boots h and b voucher (just found that from reading on here)
    thanx

    You can try. I think they refund if you have the receipt (but others will know) and if SA is nice, they might let you buy them back at the current price. I did something similar at Christmas when I had a senior moment and bought two items, forgetting about the 342. I just took it to the till, with a third item, and my receipt, and the nice SA refunded and then let me buy them back as 342. But my total spend stayed the same. But it is worth a try.
  • Hi is there a £5 spend on still at the moment and what for. Really need some No 7 stuff
    sw start date 23/09/2013 4 st 8 pounds to go....as of 21/10/13 not 3 stone 7 to go for first target. updated 18/11/13 now 2 stone 10lbs to go to first target.

    I've read this in Martin's Top Deals of the Week but thought it's worth posting here for anyone who doesn't read that bit as I sometimes don't bother.

    On sunday the News of the World magazine has a voucher in it for £5 off a £30 spend at Boots. You could also use the printable £5 Ruby and Millie moc too.

    The magazine also has a voucher for a free haircut or facial at Saks too. £1 spent on the NOTW this week could be £1 well spent.
  • I had a fantastic time in my local Boots with all the clearance items, here's what i got
