Sorry! I think me and Torianut must have gotten the 14 remaining in stock. Either that or someone's keeping quiet and bought 48 packs...anyone?

But promise I won't be buying any more so from tomorrow onwards keep checking for restock.. they're all yours. My mouth couldn't take more.

Hi,
I am not saying to read through the thread but read the first posts!! They are updated versions of the deals that are on. Unlike other threads, this one is extremely organized and all the basic info is at the first posts!! Thanks everyone for this, by the way!!

Peace of Mind Mints
When you're having a stressful day, just pop one of these mind-clearing mints into your mouth and feel your tension melt away.

Darlin, they cant stop you going into stores either! Is there not another branch near you that you could use? I really hope your recent experience doesnt keep you away from some great bargains and glitches.

Just got my Boots.com order how I wanted it when it suddenly decided Origins gumballs were out of stock...
No problem, I thought... I'll add the Origins mints instead and treat myself to the Origins "knot free" shampoo and conditioner while I'm at it... (it is totally gorgeous, I trialled a bottle via a survey site some time ago and hunted it out afterwards, but nearly fainted at the price and decided I could live without)

All was fine in the basket, I had got it to 3500 points, free delivery and about £41 to pay when idiot here decided to grab some Head and Shoulders for OH at cheapy cheap price...
Returned to basket and found 2250 of points disappeared... why?... Origins mints out of stock now too!

I don't think they are out of stock at all, I think they just realised that they didn't WANT to sell them right now (just like the Benefit sharpeners online).
Oh well Boots, your loss, you just lost my order which was growinig by the minute :mad:

From 1 fella to another

best thing you can do with your voucher is use it to buy something for the OH, or for pressys for the sister/mum!

Anything up to 6 for 1 on No. 7 suncare at the moment, expeensive items now reduced to £6. could be BOGOF, could be 3 4 2 + BOGOF = 3 4 1, could even be 6 4 1 but hard to tell as it ranges store to store. My suggestion is play it safe, get 2 suncare items (not fake tan it doesn't work) reduced to £6, BOGOF, use voucher, pay £1 for 2 items thast should cost £24!

Bit of a chicken out way of doing things, but best I think.

Could you not go to another branch where you dont feel uncomfortable?

Before i was driving i used to just go to my little town store. I had a run in with an SA there. They were selling off madela electric breast pumps for £11 that should have been £44. I bought 1 and it sold on ebay for £30 within an hour. I saw an opportunity so went back down to buy another with my points. The SA enquired why i was back to buy another, so i told her. Just in normal conversation. Maybe that was foolish Anyway- she said i wasn't allowed to buy things to resell and refused to sell it to me. I had a moan and asked for the manager. He agreed that i could buy it- glad to get rid of the clearance stock- but the SA was really peeved. She fetched a red marker pen and scribbled all through the barcode and wrote on £11!! After that she did it to everything i bought- even shampoo and stuff....stupid c*w
