Boots Grabbit Bargains Thread part 5 - post your finds here

Liverbird

Found a little Boots tucked away on The Wirral today. Must be no msers in the area as there was plenty of 90% christmas stock. Was like a kid in a candy shop! Strangely, loads of reduced Botanics too, so managed to get rid of a few 100pt vouchers too.!

i couldn't believe she had the balls to keep going back to the till - i'm sure i would have given up. maybe i'll turn her into a boots tart yet

I've given up on turning Mum into a Bootser, she doesn't want
(1) 'to get stuff I don't need'/ I only need the one......
and
(2) take advantage - despite me telling her that CS said to me that the suncare is clearance and the £3/£5 was to get people in to the store after Christmas.

She also disapproves of me R&R'ing in Tesco even though I only seem to get them unintentionally (check receipts and find overcharges).

At least I get her vouchers to spend so me and 'lil sis get a year's supply of haircare and suncare

I think men are harder to convert though, but I won't even mention my OH. I need Boots to make up for his inability to shop around.....:mad:

so theoretically you could get 3x3.50 which means the £10 spend would kick in but actual spend is £7 - £2 - £2.50 = £2.50 to pay and points back from acm :T will try it tomorrow if no-one does it this afternoon

Tried to get 342 Sanctuary today, total was £12.50 (2 x £4.50 and a £3.50) so £9 on 342.
Till accepted 200 points from Change one thing booklet, but wouldn't accept £2 voucher from No.7 wrap!
Didn't have a £2.50 facial one to try, if that works you would have £5 to pay and get 200points.
I took mine back £9 seemed alot for bits I don't really need - plenty free stuff to use up,lol!:rotfl:

My OH just thinks i'm a loon. He smiles knowingly every time i say 'im just popping to Morrisons' because he knows i'll be going to the Boots next door first!

I suggested painting the stairs at the weekend and he replied "why don't we just paper it with all those Boots carrier bags you have hidden in the wardrobe". ooops
