    Just wondering if there are any MSE regulars in my area - Sutton, Surrey? :wave:

    It gets a little lonely Bootsing on my own sometimes.

    :wave: I am! haven't been Bootsing for a while (well, since the Sanctuary moisturiser in January). Will have to study this thread properly and see what's what.

    Any MF bags in Sutton by the way??

    i was at the sauchiehall branch in glasgow earlier - tried a reduced santury bodywash which was £2.50 with the 200 points voucher from the ac machine but noticed it hadnt worked when i got my receipt. tried saying i didnt want it as i didnt get the points. but she was having none of it so will have to exchange it at a diff store later today. she said the points wouldnt have worked as it was reduced - eh why not!??can any1 shed any light on this please!?

    I managed to get reduced Sanctuary cooling scrub yesterday from Edinburgh and the 2.50 worked with it, however, the SA had to put my 200 points on manually. I would phone up CS.

    EDITED: I have some of the essential aromatherapy vouchers from the ac mchine if anyone wants them pm me.

    Not really got a clue what all you "Bootsers" get up to - or why - but it's obviously worthwhile - so can someone please explain or point me towards a post that makes it all clear.

    I've read the posts at the start of this thread and can see the attraction of getting extra points etc - BUT - what do you do with your points and how much are they worth? Are they at all like Tesco points, where they're worth 4x as much if spent elsewhere, or can you only use them to fund purchases at boots?

    If the latter, presumably it is only worth building up a big "points bank" if you regularly buy stuff from Boots?

    Thanks

    Yes, the points are great, but I mostly go 'Bootsing' for all the offers we work out between us on this thread. For example the recent 'glitch' where you could get 6 items for the price of 1 and use a money off voucher aswell, so you only payed about £1 for the lot.... or people pointing out which stores have free gifts that you can get with a minimum or no cash lay out.
    Page 1 usually has all the info you need to get the best offers/deal/freebies/glitches/vouchers......

  • Thanks for that ragtimeplayer, saves me a trip :rotfl: . Shame though it would have looked good in my ever growing collection :D .

    Still may have to go one day this week though for some toothpaste and sanctuary products. It really is addictive. Thanks again and good luck in Wakefield - dont think I'll venture that far with the little one.

    If they have any in Wakefield and I can get more than 1 Rachel, I will pass one on to you :)

    Hi, what store were you in?
    I can confirm that the reduced Sanctuary Brightening Cleanser £3.50 went through with the £2.50 voucher and 200 points from the acm. 100points to take it away!:T The store was Straiton.
