ha ha:D I'm not going down there again until saturday. Maybe someone else would like to do it;)

I would but I'm miles away

any who I bought "some" ricola, lemon ones are alright but the herb ones are horrible! will be getting a refund after the glitch has finished as I did spend some money on them and have 8 packets of herb flavoured.

Will be interesting to see how they refund me. 8 packet = £8? as my receipt is super long:D and confusing too.

Sally was there any sale stuff instore when you went in?

hardly anything in piccadilly. Just gok sets and a load of stuff that's been trashed! would have been brave and got the shots if i'd found something decent in the sale to buy.

I've also been to these stores today: Brent cross - rubbish sale, but found some shots & ricola. Notting hill - found shots, ricola & S&G tins:T 3 stores on Oxford street - no shots & nothing worth buying in the sale. I don't really need anything. I'm happy enough with all the freebies I've had from boots with the vit glitch:)

Personally I wouldn't risk 15 through a manned till, but 6 might be possible if you buy some other bits & pieces. I was happy just getting 3, because I'm not really doing it to get money off my other shopping. I really like the shots, and I'm hoping they & the free vitamins will help me get less colds!

Must be a North Down thing but out of 10 transactions, only one was trouted and not a single one was an SS till.

I've done probably a dozen or so transactions on this glitch through manned tills and not a single trouting.. almost all have been over a fiver in total though..

I think if there's no SS it's super difficult and you just have to sweet talk the SA and distract them. Say hello, talk about the 75% off sale, weather, Cameron anything! just keep them busy :rotfl:

The extra sad thing is that there were ss and I still chickened out! I'll take myself back in tomorrow and see if I'm anymore confident. I was scared I'd get reprimanded!

Well done on the calcs , Gaz.....we make a great team!!!:T

had another wee visit to the famous high street chemist and am up to 85 shots now.........details to follow!!:D

Real life catches up eh...off to have Dinner!:cool:

As promised!;)
I got 2 lots of 15 shots both with my old friend Ricola:p (almost all stores stock this it's just a case of hunting it out!)

Got a load of the gift sets in the sale to hide my shots and riccy's, that's most of the Xmas and b'day pressies sorted for the ladies in my life!:D

Final cost was a shade under £10 and savings of over £110. :T

Wow, are you doing a boots tour of London? I went to the large one on Oxford St at approx 3pm and they had some shots (I was too scared to pick up). Would you recommend Brent X for picking up the vits? I only really want 3 or 6.

don't go with 15 of each first of all. maybe 6 of each and some shower gel or whatever you fancy for £3. Use SS, if it works then repeat and repeat.

Plus I wouldn't recommend scanning the vitamins and shots all after one another mix it up with shower gel then shots then more shower gel as you don't want the negative figure on the screen. HTH

I think I'm lucky as there's no one ever looking over the SS at my local and if there is I just try to cover the screen as much as possible:o
