    did three shops in ashford town centre boots today. they have virtually no minimode boys stuff reduced - out of town has loads but wont take my vouchers :( have some Mediterranean body butters left at 49p each and gorgeous feet flip flop things reduced to 98p - buy 1 get 1 half price and use Boots voucher to get 200 points.

    shop 1
    NC strawberry bath pearls 2 @ 63p
    NC power shower trio £4.99
    Gorgeous Feet foot scrub £1.99
    Gorgeous Feet Over night rescue £2.49 BOGOHP

    Spent £9.43 got 450 points (GF voucher had to be entered by hand after transaction for me to get the points but in shop 3 on reduced items worked fine:rolleyes:)

    shop 2
    NC lipgloss £2.49
    NC headband £2.49
    NC mask 99p
    Olay wash £5.86

    Use Olay £5 off voucher so spent £6.83 and earnt 250 points

    shop 3
    Gorgeous feet flip flop 2 @ 98p
    Water cartridge (no offer) £2.99
    NC headband £2.49
    NC stripey flannel (in different section and two would cover offer) £.245
    NC hair sachet 99p
    Med mini body butter 4 @ 49p
    Mini mode dungaree set £9 (was £18)
    Mini mode swimsuit £8

    Used Mini Mode Baby mag 20% off and Boots mini mode voucher 20% off. Clothes subtotal should have been £17 and altogether I paid £9.44 (not sure how or why its this total???)
    Spent £21.79 and got 450points (200 for Gorgeous feet voucher and 250 for NC)

    I think I did well (£38 and 1150 points to spend). I am now gathering mini things and NC collection stuff as I am going to do all the ladies mini hampers this year for xmas (am trying to spend £5 per person ... its amazing how much I can get for that by bargain hunting:D) . Just need to find cheap make up bags next. Hopefully Ill have got majority of bargains needed by June so then xmas will be sorted and i can just look out for bargains for all the birthdays. :T:T:T And I now have over £20 in points (was down to nothing) - normally save these for Xmas but this year I can use them on us .... or maybe the birthday pressies i will need ;)

    The ACM 200 points wyb any Photo Album or Frame works with items like
    the mini print your own Photo Calendar for £1 and some of the mini Photo Books for £1.46.
    Might be an idea for those looking for Brag Books too.
    I think they are around £2.89 and come in pink, blue and lilac.
    Handy to keep your ACM and money saving vouchers in plus 200 points back. :cool:

    I'm sure I'm about to sound silly but how do you get the photo calanders/photo books. Do you use those kiosk things or just go to the photo till and ask?

    I've never actually been near that section of the store, but this could make a good gift for my OH for when he's deployed :o

    My trip last week to boots may have been a waste, but I did just buy a Boots Botanics Mini Body Treats set for £1.20 in my local charity shop. So I feel a little better now :D

    Not sure if the offers are still on, but when the tablets first came out a couple of weeks ago, they were MUCH cheaper at Tesco and Asda.

    These items are in the same section as the Photo Frames and Albums.:cool:
    The Mini Calendar, comes blank with spaces for you to put a small photo of your choice on to the page for each month.
    Its about 6" x 6" in size so handy for a desk etc. The Photo Book is a tiny 3 1/2"x 2 1/2", and again you can put small photos inside,
    which you will need to stick to the blank pages and you can write a comment beside each piccy.
    I thought they would be nice in a gift hamper once filled with photos. Lots of people have mobile phones
    that take nice photos and have memory cards, so even these pics can be used for this kind of momento. HTH.:)

    Don't forget the 200 points you get with the ACM voucher.

    Can anyone confirm that my ideas about ordering in store are correct?

    I am under the impression that if I go to the photo counter and order CK Euphoria to be delivered in store I can pay with points.
    I only ask because atm on boots.com there are two really nice gwp wyb CK and I'd like to get them both. :o

    Also do you still get free delivery when paying in points?
    TIA
    :hello:Hi Cocoa - Butter! Your impressions are correct! You will need the item code from .com though for the SA to type in to the till. You also get free delivery in to the store if the goods are over the £25 mark (unless this has recently changed - anyone?!) HTH x
    :p

    There is a new code in the ACM that may have been listed on the codes thread? If not, I'll pm you ;) Has your mum heard some of the ucky stories about alli, i.e needing the loo urgently....:o:eek: Need I say any more?! I totally recommend Bootsdiets - it's on offer at the moment, just over £1 per week if you sign up for 3 months, plus you earn points, plus if you recommend a friend you earn 500 points! Better still I've just lost 1/2 a stone on it! :D
    :p
