Its like a full time job but I love it! When I'm at Boots I'm scared that I'm missing some important post on this thread and when I'm on here I'm worrying about not getting the bargains :rotfl:

thats exactly how i am! i had to explain to dh last night that this isnt just spending money (as he put it!) - ITS A HOBBY- he has to not look at it as spending money, its more of an experience!! :rotfl:

I was nearly refused the Botanics, free item & 100points voucher deal today. The girl told me I couldn't have both deals and didn't look very happy when I told her I'd had it twice before. She went off to check and came back saying they'd told her to "just do it".

So a £1.50 spend on a Waffle Body Buffer got me the £5.49 Enritching Body Cream for free with 100 extra points. She didn't even register that I'd also sneaked another magazine through to get another voucher!

This afternoon, i went to 2 Boots, and the BOGOF, 3 4 2 glitch did work!!

First boots, i get
2 x Hair Spritz @ 5.50
1 x gental foam wash @ 6.50

use the no.7 voucher paid 1.50
the SA girl kind enough trying to put those into 2 transection, because she find a spare voucher at the till, but i asked 'isn't it 3 4 2?' so she scanned all of this in 1 time.

3x lip and face shimmer stick @ 5.50
use the no.7 voucher paid 0.50

still got 1 more voucher to use!

2nd boots
find a botantics boby bar (last one)99p, so got it and get a night cream 5.99 for free~

i think i will be going back to boots tomorrow, but I had already bought all the cheap suncare product, so need to find somthing else to get!

Having been in 3 different Boots store today (thanks to this site, and the 'glitch'!) I have noticed that the newly stocked up Lancaster Suncare has 3 SEL's priced at £1.00 for Anti Ageing spf8 cream, £2.00 for Tan Maximiser Aftersun Shower Gel, and £3.00 for Pre Sun Booster.
However.....the 'said' items aren't 'stocked up'. No-where to be seen.
I have asked 2 SA's, and they said "they must've all gone"!
Which is news to me, because these shelves have only just been loaded up, as the Sale Items have disappeared?!
I have Emailed Boots CS today to query......
Just thought people might like to look out for them....and Post Back any replies....?
These things are usually priced between £12 and £18.!
:rolleyes:

It's a shame we can't get an MSE "disloyalty" card to wave at SA's under such circumstances:
"What? You expect me to PAY for all this? Are you MAD?! Fetch me a porter to take these goods to my car and be quick about it!".

Another spot at the Whitechapel branch - quite a lot of Botanics stuff reduced to £1.50 - £2.00 on the end of an aisle near the stairs at the corner of the store. I've got so many free moisturisers now I'm in danger of drowning.

I finaly managed to get into town today
expecting to get all sorts of stuff in the
large Boots store,never got anything,I
was gutted,I had such expectations.

However,I also went into the smaller
Whitechapel store later,only because we had
gone for our cheap coffees in costa Coffee
with our cards

Have posted earlier this evening but two lots
of shopping £5.18 and £5.49 + 932 points
on my card.Got a heap of stuff staff really
helpful and also noticed the reduced Botanics

just goes to show its not always the big stores
that have the best offers.I noticed that a lot
of the stuff that was half price in the larger store
I have seen elsewhere with 75% off.

Armed with a list of what to look out for thought I'd give the No7 glitch a try today, bit of a disaster to start with but worked out ok in the end!

First time I went to the till with lip & eye screen, sunless tanning starter kit and purple giftbag and was charged £15.50! (was charged £9 for the lip screen!) Which came down to £10.50 with No7 voucher, still not right!

Anyway not one to give up I went round again and this time took sunless tanning starter kit, hair spritz and 'lipstick' giftbag to a different till but SA said you can't do all of these in one transaction as they are on a multibuy (not my lucky day I thought!) But she wasn't being awful, just trying to be helpful. She scanned the giftbag and I used a No7 voucher so cost me £1.50, then did the two suncare products but they weren't coming up BOGOF so we looked across where you could clearly see the BOGOF signs and said the tanning starter kit was not part of the offer at which point I said I'd just got some No7 items and the offer hadn't worked and also been overcharged for the lip screen so said did I pay for them at the No7 counter which of course I hadn't (after reading some people's experiences here!) So off she went to the No7 counter and then came back for me (oh cack I thought I've had it now!) But I have to say the No7 lady was fantastic. She refunded my £9 then put the lip & eye screen through with two hair spritz and with the £5 voucher knocked off it cost £1.50 RESULT! She knew all about the glitch but was still happy to put the three items through.
