    Hi Everyone

    Any leeds bootsers out there? There are some photo frames in the clearance section upstairs and I've noticed that all frames are on buy one get one free - willthis work on the reduced ones too?

    It did for me, frames and albums, I also had a 100 points from the ATM when buying any frames or albums.

    Had a great boots shop today, finally getting the hang of it.
    Bought the tony and guy full size shamppo the other day and was happy with the price and my extra 200 points but today i went and tried the mini's. bought 3 (sep shops) £1.12 each and 200 extra points each.... thats even better. So thanks to whoever spotted that. Also got the free blissful kit was willing to buy the two products for xmas pressies but getting it free with no extra spend was brill!!! Thanks for all who report on here, my card has gone from a measly £3 to an amazing£15 in just 2 visits.
    Would love to earn an extra £40 a Week. Trying to find ways to :-)

    Hi guys, got an idea/ theory.

    On 17 products, I've seen a parenting voucher - free "Get Cheeky" when you spend £5 and a £1 off a £5 spend and in the acm, Soem people in the acm have had "Free 17 eye creme when you buy a mascara", so how about :
    17 mascara £4.75
    17 pencil sharpener (cheapest thing) - £1.99
    Free eye creme with mascara
    Free Get Cheeky
    £6.74, take off £1 parenting voucher = £5.74 for 4 makeup items (5 if 3 for 2 is still on), and in those couple of stores still with fairy bags out - free bag as well!

    Is it 3 for 2 still on 17 as well? Any any acm 17 vouchers?


    Also:
    The email 100point on a £10 spend voucher, and the one off 100points on a £10 spend in acm, and the valid today only 75points on a £10 spend, would they all go together? So £2.75 back on a £10 spend?
    Inside me lives a skinny woman crying to get out - but I can usually shut her up with cake!

    i have just called cs to ask about my points and am now feeling really annoyed. to start with, the call cost me quite a lot as i called from my landline, and was put on hold. lasted a good 12 minutes.:eek:

    the lady said that the points are correct and my new card shows the right points. i protested and said that the old receipt shows 3929 in points, whereas i was only given 2901 on my new card. i have my receipt still so i read out the stuff that i purchased and the points i was given. and...the end of the receipt says:

    points received : 28
    * offer points* : 1000
    new points total: 3929

    then, she went to consult the manager. came back to tell me that THE MANAGER DECIDED that i will be given my points(WHICH ARE RIGHTFULLY MINE ANYWAY), BUT, "the manager realised that this has happened in the past". (i called up once when my double points coupon did not go thru..) she went on to say that because of this, I need to be 'careful' and 'check my receipt properly' before leaving the store. :mad: :mad: her next sentence,: " you should have really checked your receipt". but she will add it on nonetheless, but i'll need make sure that this doesnt happen again. (how can i make sure their effing tills give me the right points? does she really think i have control over the tills?:mad: :mad: :mad:

    i was about to lose it as she was advising me on checking my receipt, as i always do check my receipts. and on this occasion, it WAS PRINTED that points total is 3929. (would i, in my right mind, leave the building with 4 nail files and no points? ) its not my fault it doesnt add up on the card. :(
