    Think I have lost the plot on this one - how do you get it down £2.15?

    I don't get it either...Have you been given half price on it twice??

    I think maybe the 50% off voucher from the quit smoking kit takes off 50% of the original (full) price, not 50% of the reduced-by-a-third-price.

    So it takes off £6.50, or thereabouts, and then you save £4.33 as the third-off...

    thats what i got on friday
    seems like thats the only thing worth getting though
    the rapid stick you got was it ina box or the same as in the picture on the voucher?

    Yes, if someone could give us the last 6 digits of the barcode we would know we were getting the right thing. I am hoping my little Boots has it so I can do all my Boots shopping in one place.

    Just realised that with this item I can just about spend £10 - Maybelline/Bourjois nail varnish about £3 (with the £2 coupon) the whitening stick with the two coupons about £2, Bodyform liners and pads, £3 with two 100 points vouchers and then the total spend points vouchers.

    Can someone check my maths?

    Maybe also the Botanics pulse points thing with two vouchers - do they both still work?

    andrew on the photo counter downstairs is lovely and very patient takes all the coupons and always test them out.Avoid the witch on the no7 counter and the lady with the white overall top downstairs they both hate people getting a bargain.The maxfactor girl is really nice once you get chatting to her and you must have noticed the bored sleepy looking fellow on the main tills he doesn't care about anything.Avoid the lady who wears a blazer on the main tills (short with dark hair-she scrutinises evry coupon and voucher, even counts lunchoen voucher values and refuses if they are more than what the meal deal price is).I am well known there and they all whisper and gossip about me- it's not much of a clearance at the moment is it.
    Festivel park- isn't the new manager handsome!;)

    Crikey mate!!!
    You sure know your Boots!!!! LOL:rotfl:
    Not going till fri so will check out the fags thing, if you lot havent got there first!
    Im new to all this but I am loving it! When I got the poo pills glitch I was buzzing for hours after, haha, must get out more!
    The dragon on pharmacy wouldnt give me a ROC bag, I reckon she was pre menstrual...:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    Will keep a look out for other assistants, tho its a bit tricky with the way the tills are set out dont you think? Thats why i went to pharmacy but that backfired big time, she said "this is only free if you by product, would you like me to fetch you one"!!!!!! er no duck, I'll leave it!!!!
    Thanks for all your help X

    photo counter is best because it's downstairs so usually the male sa's can't be bothered to go and check upstairs-but avoid the lady with the dark red spiky hair .It's also handy to go and hide in the lift when they go and check things out if you want to avoid an embarassing moment.
