Hi sorry but this is non boots related but i posted a while ago about a dodgy smear and i was panicking, i had loads of pms so just wanted to update that i went today and had to have laser treatment but he thinks they got all of it. Just wanted to say thankyou to everyone who put my mind at rest and to anyone else who is going through the same thing to just try to keep calm! Havent posted on here for ages as i just havent been able to afford to 'pop' into boots! sorry again for being off topic!

How scary...glad to hear you're ok:T

Tried again this afternoon with 3 dry shampoos @ £1.30 each and a thining hair spray but till beeped at voucher and when SA called supervisor over she just voided the cost of the thining hair spray so I ended up paying £3.90 for the 3 dry shampoos. Has anyone succesfuly purchased a dry shampoo as part of this glitch?



I had the same problem today too....ended up paying £3.90 for 3 dry hair shampoo's!!:mad:

Noooooooo!!!! really wanted this glitch to work...was going to buy other expert things though.....i'll try it to see if it works....if not...,well....bootsing is REALLY not much fun anymore then is it?:p

Hi jazzteddy, great list:D However, these vouchers don't usually work unless your total spend after all vouchers handed over is £30 I've had a lot of trouble with these in the past. Always worth a try though

Thinking about it you are probably right there Sally.
I have however used vouchers in the new Alliance chemists before now for a total spend.
Ie: £2 off wys £10 and £1 off wys £5, with a £5 off skincare voucher
and the till has charged me just £3 for a £10 spend and 0.00 for a £6.00 spend.
These were promotional vouchers for new refitted Alliance chemists
and are worth looking out for if your local chemist has recently been rebranded.

JTZ Expert glitch worked for me yesterday. HTH

Anyone tried the pepsi raw coupon as part of a meal deal?
I wonder if it will deduct the full cost of the drink from the £2.99?

Its a couponstar coupon, dont know if anyone has experience of how they work at all?

The coupon ends 000 so the price will have to be entered manually I think, might work if you get a nice SA who enters full price but I'm not sure how much it is

Hellooo JT I tried that yesterday in a newly refurbished Alliance/Boots store and the SA was having none of it. She would only let me use 1 of the coupons on either £5 or £10 spend. Managed to get 3 x Nivea Body Creme in the navy blue round tubs £1.97 each and wax strips £4.xx used £2 off coupon paid £8.xx

Thats a shame Mollie, it does work, SA willing.
I got quite a few of the L'oreal Face creams @ £10.xx each for just £3.xx each
when the skincare voucher was about and I must say they are nice products to use.
I think its pot luck really as with most Boots related purchases.

Some you win, some you don't, some you leave at the counter as you have mysteriously forgotten your purse.

Not found any bargains in Boots in nearly a fortnight, cos of the rubbish offers @ mo - its gone from having my salary paid directly into Mr B's bank account to spending peanuts - which is good for my purse & the small mountain of stuff in my spare room!

Just something that Sanctuary fans might find of some use (& sort of slightly O/T but the Sanctuary/Boots link is there!!) I went to my local T*sco on my way home tonight & checked out their clearance items. They had quite a few toiletry items on the shelves, including a gorgeous "Sanctuary"-type Body Therapy Spa Serenity Lurur Warming Sugar Rub @ £2 (rrp £8.79 - much nicer looking than the pic & is just like the Sanctuary Kyphi Hot Sugar Scrub that I got free from Boots with the magazine voucher a couple of weeks ago - smells a little different than the Kyphi but still smells lovely! I keep sniffing my arm where I tried it) & a Body Therapy Spa Malama Intense Moisture Body Butter (also smells lush!) for just £1.24 (RRP £4.94) - the only annoying thing is that they're shown as 3-4-2 on the links & so I wonder if I'd've got a 3rd item for free, even though it was on clearance?? Shame there weren't any more on the shelves, cos I was looking to buy more anyway!! Might be worth a try, if you find them!

Also, they had tonnes of L'Oreal De-Maq Expert Eye & Lip Makeup Remover at just 35p (RRP £5.86 in Boots!!) Takes off waterproof mascara & permanent lip colour (which is good, as I wear the No 7 Stay Perfect stuff, so it should take that off easily)

Well happy with the bargains, especially when I saw the proper RRPs. May make it to Boots on Sunday, but not expecting anything exciting!

Hi again this particular SA has worked in that store for years and she could barely work the old till never mind the new fangled Boots one. Its more than her jobs worth apparently (to try and put vouchers/coupons thru). I cant pretend to have forgotten my purse as its in me hand as soon as I step over the threshold lol(the lure/pull is too strong)

Evening all, well i had a mini boots trip and picked up a few loreal bits that were reduced on sel, used moc from loreal club (joined online) and so picked up some lovely items for pennies. Still havent spotted the busbi frame but will keep looking. Still got loads of fragrance vouchers and nothing to spend them on. But managed to get some ug finishing cream free with hairy. Since ive started bootsing all my make up, haircare etc has got upgraded without spending more yeah. Also just a note that the expert hair loss treatment has a use by date on it and mines only till sept, but ive got loads of hair so will probably finish it in the next two weeks lol, but do keep an eye out!
Im loving the max factor gwp by the way gorgeous, does anyone know of any other gwps coming out soon? tia

I have 2 different 20% off vouchers for Mini Mode. (Out of Baby mag and other mag) One expires on Tuesday.

Can I use both together and get 40% off? I asked today and the assistant couldnt find a manager to ask.

She said she could put them through the till but if only 1 worked I would lose the other as she couldn't put it through again.

Does anyone know? Sorry if this has already been covered!
