    I also had this idea, how many packs of razors do you need in a life time? We would be doing Boots a favour they will make 31p for nothing lol:j :beer:

    Actually does make sense - might try it. Silly question-BUT would the razors scan again ?? :confused:

    How would you actually do it though? take them out of your bag and go to the till? discreetly.....???

    best have the receipt in case ............???

    could actually be quite funny
    being pulled by security and explaining what you're doing..and producing a receipt too to prove it..can imagine their faces! lol :)
  • I had 860 points on my advantage card today and wanted to use them on the soap & Glory body washes, 4.99 each and 342, not enough points for 2 so
    printed a 200 points for the skin care gift set, this is 3.49 half price, paid for it first to get the points, then bought 3 body washes with my points. the skin care gift set is quite nice, esp when it is effectively 1.49! ooh and also got the free gift bag worth £2
  • and a free toni and guy travel size with voucher from machine - already had one,didnt realise they repeat them, wish I had known!!
    If you buy two of these on the buy two for £2, then redeem the free voucher against it, you pay 41p. The till deducts £1.59 you see!

    Nice prezzie for medium daughter
    So many glitches, so little time...

    Got a Voucher out of Advantage Machine for Free eye cream with any 17 Mascara, as i wanted the gift set for my sis for Christmas also bought a Lip liner, went to till and it appears the 17 items are on 3 for 2 so i paid £4.75 in total for the 17 items and got the Mascara at £4.75 the Eye cream worth £3.99 free with voucher, the Lip Liner 3 as they are on 3 for 2 and the Gift Set. Excellent present.


    You only get offered the voucher once, really pleased with the offer.
  • If you are at a loss as to what to do with all your spare basic razors................................

    I have had 7 lots of the body glow stuff with the 31p razors, the obvious thing at this time of year is to donate them to your local CRISIS centre or SALLY ARMY.
    That's where mine went. Only a small effort to get them there. If more of us do it, they'll be wondering where on earth all the razors are coming from :)

    It'll look like Boots have gone all charitable for the season.

    We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars........................

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    The online sale has started. I love Boots but don't think I can face the pushing and shoving instore next week. Some great bargains to be had online but be quick!
  • Online bargains found so far...

    No7 Gift bags (black ones with lipsticks on) that were the freebie before the gorgeous one £6.50 - Buying 3 does not qualify you for the free gorgeous bag though.

    No7 Skin and body care bag reduced from £20 to £10 (these do qualify for free bag offer when you spend over £15)

    I just came to post this, but i'm always to slow *frown* :)



    As usual i have no credit card, so no bargains for me!.

    i did go xmas shopping yesterday, and the boots i went to even had a escalator to the floor bewlow. WOW, that's impressive :)
    I didn't find any Nivea gift set things though. Has anyone else not been able to find the dove sets for women or the nivea sets for men??. All they always have is the Lynx ones :(
