    I tried it last night and they appeared in my basket but then I remembered I didn't need the stuff so deleted it all. Now that is moneysaving. ;)

    It would still have made a good investment as you could've returned the items to a Boots store and had an exchange at the full price. ;)

    My local Boots already have me on the "troublemakers" list due to all the loopholes I've made use of so I don't want to give them any more ammo to ban me. ;)

    Been using boots card loads - now have just over £100. Mainly go to boots only when there are pints to be had - and gained lots of points from glitches - eg the EI glitch and when there are coupons from the advantage point in store.

    Anyway - went into boots last week - got nothing except a voucher for 150 points on a £20 spend from the advnatage point.

    Tried again today - same story - have they banned me from getting offers from the advantage point??? Has this happened to anyone else?:confused:

    No, this happened to me last week and I havent had any good glitches for ages. Bootsing has lost it's thrill these days. :confused:

    Just for purchasing goods you're placed on a "trouble maker's list"?! I'd be suing for defamation and kicking up a fuss with the press!
