    I got the 6 pack diareeze? tablets and it worked fine on them - bogof @ £2.39 and £2.40 saving plus successfully used the 100 points voucher from AC which wouldn't work with the 12 pack last week.

    SA at pharmacy wouldn't let me get the 12 pack on BOGOF combined with the mag voucher. Spoilsport.

    I only just managed to disguise my purchase with a reduced rechargeable battery before the SA hit the button to call another SA over with the 1p the till was originally owing me. Phew. Stressful stuff this Bootsing milarky.

    Paid 99p for my battery and 2 x 6 packs of the diareeze? tablets and got 108 points back.

    Had a Boots to buy/ look at list in my handbag which as usual I forgot to refer to. Oh the stress... forgot all about checking the AC machine for any more mouthwash vouchers.
    Tesco points: 101 (£21.50, £19.50, £7.50, £21 & £5)
    Boots points: £0.28
    Pigsback points: 715 (4 xBoots£10 & 1 xPizzaHut£10, 2 x £10 clothing vouchers)
    Mutual points: 3417 (redeemed 8250)
    Rpoints:redeemed 28925 points)Cashbag:£8.91(£20)

    Had a great Boots trip....thanks to those of you who have posted the possibilities!

    Found the Roc free gift but only by chance, they werent advertised as being a free gift and just looked like decoration boxes on top of the display shelf. I was just cheeky enough to reach up and pull one down to investigate!

    My transaction was:

    Diareze 6 pack x2 (bogof and free with magazine voucher....I think)
    No17 Nail polish x 3 (3 4 2 and free fairy bag)
    Boots ibuprofen and free Deep Freeze patch
    Roc Hydra+ Dry cream moisturiser

    I used the following:

    £5 skin care voucher
    £5 Roc voucher from inside Roc free gift box
    Diareze voucher from Boots mag
    100 points for Diareze from ACM

    Ended up paying £1.44 !!??

    Pretty good for me as I usually end up getting flustered, forgetting to use the crucial voucher or forgetting the crucial purchase and end up paying a non-discounted price. I am getting better though.

    Thanks for everyones help. I will try and post a piccy of the Roc gift if i can manage to sort it out!

    Well done and welcome to the club! beware, bootsing is very addictive. I told myself this morning - today would be the last day of bootsing for me until after my hols, but then I saw the free olay gift glitch on the website, so now I NEED to go into Boots first thing tomorrow to try to get my hands on one...plus a few more of those horrid looking mouthwashes for the points. Mad or what?

    Some people have mentioned getting new £5 vouchers when getting lots of things free. Do you have to spend enough to pay £10 in cash to get the voucher, or does the voucher come when the items you get would have been more than £10 before all the bogofs and half price vouchers etc?

    I am really sorry but what is the toothpaste deal. I have looked through past pages and can't seem to find it. - Not that I need any more toothpaste!!!

    No it has to be a tenner cash after all the bits

    A mobile top up will work if you don't usually buy stuff from there. I think I would be lost if it was not for baby milk and nappies. That is how I manage to spend to get the vouchers.

    I think this should work but I am not sure, apologise if not.

    It is a bit dark but my camera batteries died as I took the photo so I cant redo it. Any offers on batteries anywhere anyone ????

    The voucher is not in the photo as I used it already!

    Hope this helps someone. As I said I found these on top of the display unit, quite high up!

    The square on the right is a handbag mirror and the white item above is a headband
