any bootsers managed te expert glitch successfully in lanarkshire/glasgow area??

I'm unsure about that, but it worked in Aberdeen on Wednesday. Items out-of-date, and glitch fixed by Friday (26th).

Perhaps store-specific. If more of us MSE'rs in one place, then prompt action needed and taken. Whereas, other areas might take a while to even notice us going in for the kill :rolleyes:.

Anyone got any updates on the notw £5 off vouchers?

Does it scan as a boots coupon, so giving 20 points for the £5 taken off?

Can you use it with other vouchers, so you spend less than £25?

Does it work with a £30+ extra points threshold spend coupon even if you actually pay less than £30 cash?


TIA to anyone who could let us know about this voucher. Im gonna give it a go tomorrow, so ill let you know how i get on, but it would be nice to know beforehand what does/doesnt work so i can plan how to use it best

Hi all I have just noticed that a post of mine from yesterday has been removed and I would like to know why. There was nothing in the content that was abusive, offensive or malicious in any way. If someone has a problem then I would rather they came out with it rather than going behind my back and reporting it. Im sure someone in the know can help me out. Thank you. Oh I have already emailed Abuse and am awaiting their reply

hiya:DI can't take full credit for the glitch, as someone else used the voucher before me and discovered it took off the full price of the hair loss treatment and not the reduced price, resulting in a credit of £3.33

I was the one who discovered you didn't need to spend £5 to qualify for the freebie, by buying items with 1/3 off, bringing the total spend down to 26p:jI hope we get more of these double glitches from Mr B:D

small store in shepherds bush has the latest H&B mag instock:jnot read it yet though.

That was me, but Sally came up with the fantastic combo, MSE teamwork at its best.:T:D

I'm certainly not a person in the know, but the Internet is a vast expanse, and people from all walks of life that don't normally interact will try and sometimes fail to interact in any way shape or form - no matter what you say or how many smileys you use to try to convey a lightened tone.

I can tell that you are conscientious, and I would be the same as you in wanting to know why a post was deleted for no apparent reason.

I'll give you hugs and :kisses:. We're all one big MSE family (said in an Eastenders tone - I said FAMILY - Peggy Mitchell style).

We all have something equally important to say - whether it's what OP want to hear or not.

Don't let it worry you. Keep on being you.

Some people have bad days, and one minute they might interpret something in a bad way, and the next day they would interpret the same post in another light.

I'm sure we all care for one another in our own little ways.

PS Just thought I'd add that if I had a problem, I'd PM someone, and that it wasn't me who complained. Just wanted to clarify that point. Speaking generically and somewhat tired - hence why I'm babbling - again.

Bon Accord. Going through at full price on last Friday.

If you can get down there, they've got a whole load of perfumes reduced (e.g. see my other post, as well as Prada at a tenner, DKNY at a fiver, and various perfumed creams and lotions at £3.00 - or a threeser if were keeping it consistent - e.g. Versace, Givenchy, etc). Two lovely reduction meisters plugging away reducing an entire stand (next to the warehouse entrance). They seemed to be happy reductioners, and I was happy to watch them fill the stand).

The Manager was miffed that I used my vouchers, though.

Haven't seen this sort of reductions since the bargains of yore at Chrimbo time, e.g. one pound for normally very expensive R&M items. Oh those were the days - lol - and my neice was (and still is) a pampered Princess.

Like a good little MSE'r, there I was with voucher slyly in hand and calculating combos (so much fun - doesn't take a lot to amuse me!!!)

I think, as previously mentioned by other OP's the Expert glitch works only in certain stores... this b'coz I tried the same combo as Sally on the SS y'day but the dreaded msg came up as 'deal qualification not met'; left the items as my mind went blank & didn't want to end up spending more & have the SA manually enter the free item price...:eek: however did some small shops to use up some (if not all!:p) of my vouchers!

Purchased the following again lol!:rotfl:

R&M Lip Gloss *3 @ £2.88 each = £5.76 (342)
Used £5 R&M voucher so 76p to pay! I have to say I've been lucky with the different SA's I've been served by using this voucher!:D

GF Intense Moisturiser @ £1.99
GF Intense Moisturiser BOGOHP @ 98p
Paid £2.98 with 200pts back! *** Did this 6 times ***

Also bought

Coolwater EDT 30ml £10.27 (1/2 price)
Used £5 Fragrance voucher so £5.27 to pay with 20pts back + £2 haircare voucher *** Did this 4 times! ***

My haircare vouchers seem 2b breeding & I also have some of the £5 fragrance vouchers still left! The reduced haircare items r nowhere 2b seen @ the mo... also to use up my fragrance vouchers how I wished I had the same bargains as Tibbs, TFH!!! Well done U!:T
