    Argh... dratt... i just deleted my post as i thought it appeared twice, when in fact it didn't *forehead-slap*

    As i was saying... someone else mentioned tricking the till into thinking it was a £15 spend for the wrap using wipes... I managed this on the weekend

    Got 2 x suncare (one £8.50, one £9.50 on shelves.. both scanned at £6... on BOGOF) plus 2 x tanning corrector wipes (£1.65 each, so £3.30 for two)

    Till thought I'd spent £15.30 (£6 + £6 + £3.30) but as it was BOGOF it was only £9.30, then used a £5 off No7 red voucher to make it £4.30.

    ...and i noticed that one of the wipes is listed at the bottom of the reciept on it's own, whereas the other was "bumped" to the top together with suncare as a link-save (to get the wrap) so it may work with only one? Not sure... will have to study the receipt, boots ones confuse me

    Been treating myself all morning with boots goodies -used my no7 mirror for the first time today and had a shock with the magnifying side, did my eyebrows and also trimmed them with the no7 trimmer, used a sanctuary face scrub and mask(excellent) had a long soak in sanctuary bath foam and used the no7 pedicure thingy on feet .Moisturised with free times voucher sanctuary moisturiser and curled eyelashes with no7 curler(not good).then used bits of no7 makeup ive had at ridiculous afffordable prices with vouchers and finished with lipgloss from the freebie maxfactor box.Im now all cosy with a cuppa & 2 for 70p creme eggs(from boots) and feet in 342 reduced priced pretty polly socks form boots.Very pleased with everything and going out later to treat myself further with more boots goodies by using pigsback vouchers.

    P.s sitting on a betty boop cushion from boots from the clearance section and my little one is playing with the clinique bonus gift mailing.

    not sure if this has been posted before but I looked at the boots on line and noticed that if you bought two no 7 products this week you got an extra 300 points it did'nt mention any spend limit. Could someone check this too see if I'm correct I wouldn't want to miss lead people, new to Bootsing.

    Just a quick thank you to all those who post on top buys in boots.

    I got my 2 pregnancy booklets (2 advantage cards in slightly different names-and yes, i am actually pregnant!), and went to 2 different boots to get the free disposable camara (on bogof as tipped on here earlier). 1st boots was no problem, went throught till ok, with my other goods etc.

    2nd boots got an eyeshadow (using no 7 voucher) and the 2 camaras (£8.99 each!) using preg voucher-total went from £15ish to £1.50, sales assistant got funny and said preg voucher states only 1 single disposable camara i argued the point with her, but she huffed away to check with manager, who to my delight said i was perfectly right, they were on bogof so i was entitled to the free one 2!!!!!!!!!

    Hooray for mse and boots pregnancy club and boots tarts, 4 disposable camaras with flash for free!!!!!!
    Mortgage free 04/03/2025. Thanks to this site and lots of overpayments bit by bit.
    Next stop: house repairs, holiday fund, replace our very old cars, more financial security/early retirement savings.🤞

    To fellow Mser in Crawley , Noticed benefit lady wasnt there today when i went in so walked around the counter , didnt spot any bags :rolleyes:

    Also the No 7 is full price at this store ??? (upstairs in suncare section ) Forgot to look to see if any more sanct bags are in , :confused:

    And walked out of Boots with nothing !!!! :eek: I think i lost the plot !!!:rotfl:

    Re benefit crawley-i went through the drawers yesterday and couldnt find any of the bags.

    The suncare is bogof and reduced-get them to scan it at tills

    however Horsham swan walk has sun stuff really reduced-bag of 3 items was 19.50 now £6 and BOGOF.

    Hey u!! OMG i have been on the same mission as you!!

    No benefit bags in sight...hmmm slightly odd since they are in the other stores, but its ok since i managed to get in early online and got the free bag (which is very cute :j ), but just thought i would try in store as well, but no luck!

    I didnt see any sanct bags anywhere! i wanted to get the moisturising lotion with my times voucher but looks like people have cleared them out as there wasnt any.

    i guess i will wait until next week and see if they get more cream in or i will end up with a cleanser which i dont want!

    i have noticed that Crawley seems to be a bit rubbish at the sale stuff. i havent even seen any clearance makeup that some people seem to find, mind you i havent looked very hard! also havent seen the mf boxes anywhere...hmmmm better luck next time to us both, as i also walked out with nothing!!!;)
