Picked up a stop smoking pack yesterday in a non-local boots (so OH could have a lolly!) I shook them all looking for the dinky little jar and the SA came over and asked me what I was doing. I just said "the master told me I must" in a very silly voice and he *ran* away.... Don't think I could have pulled that one off in my home store. :rotfl: :rotfl:
Didn't get a dinky jar though.
That was so funny, thank you (thanks button isn't actually working for me right now)! I actually cried with laughter, the poor SA, what must they have thought!0 -

Not available on their website - but found on Amazon HERE for spec info.
They are on the fixture with the other rechargable toothbrushes.
ACM gave 2 vouchers, one for 75 points off £10 spend, and the other 100 points off a £10 spend. We got a few other bits and bobs to take it over £10 and till accepted both vouchers - though they clearly state only 1 total spend voucher per transaction!
Next, Shirley high street store, clearance section just by the entrance and bought 2 Boots Repel Extra Strength Insect Repellent Lotion Was £5.99, Now £2.99 though went through buy 1 get 1 half price! Thus was charged £4.48 for 2 - cheaper than buying 1 at original price. - plenty left on the shelf.
Also got Boots Bite and Sting Relief Antihistamine Cream reduced from £3.29 to just £0.82! And we go on holiday in under 2 weeks so ideal.
The above are store specific reductions, but know there are others from the Southampton area on this forum, hence the post for their benefit.
Wow... what a day.
Popped out this afternoon to my local store in Portswood to find large tubes of Aquafresh reduced to 41p, Boots basic mouthwash reduced to 41p and best of all Gillette deodorants reduced to half price, but also saw pos for the 3-4-2 hadn't been taken down, so grabbed 6 lots and SA honored the deal as i pointed out the pos.
Thing is, there was a further pos that i forgot to mention the SA - oh silly me - it's still there!
From todays haul we have also grabbed at least 2 dozen stop smoking, and beach gorgeous packs - HeHe0 -

just a quick question;
If an item is advertised as BOGOF, and I take 2 and going to pay by using the points, do they deduct the points once (BOGOF), or twice (BOGOF doesnt valid when paying by using points etc.)
TIA
they only deduct one set ie: shampoo £1.99 on bogoff only 199 points taken as I did today

i must admit boots send me a second card as they thought my first card wasnt working and they forgot to take off the 16 pounds worth of points off the first so i quickly spend them and said nothing but i did feel guilty over it !!!Inside me lives a skinny woman crying to get out - but I can usually shut her up with cake!0 -
