Boots Grabbit Bargains Thread part 9 - post your finds here

Hi, just a quick bit of advice - when u return something to Boots and they take the points of the card, do they store this information? If i buy items with bonus points and return them later (u keep the bonus points! found that out today with the flight socks!!! ) they take of normal points only, will this be stored and eventually not let me do it any more??

Does this make sense? i'm not good at writing what i mean!
Thanks

thanks yep theres only a triple points offer on mouthwashes in store. I got a pink mf bag thing this evenign after buying some mf mascara to add to the pile. I could open a shop with all the spare make up i have that i buy when theres a free gift. Also got the fcuk free gift as well. and extra 150 points for £20 spend not bad. Though i did spend £14 in the other boots this morning but got nearly 500 points back its been a boots day.
Can anyone tell me though why some people dont get any points offers in the machine. becuase my mum keeps trying and she doesnt get any at all. I put mine in tonight and i only got the £20 spend but i think thats because I printed them all out this morning. Its confusing.

I got the free EA gift yesterday with the coupon but the SA made me buy 2 items to get it ( I got it all on my points so she over rode the free thing to show as 0.00 on the reciept) can I take the items back and will they let me keep the gift? or should I say that I lost the reciept so they dont know about it?

I got 100 points on a Toni & Guy mini making it 14p, will try more

Worked for me too. I got a mini conditioner and the 100 points were added. As with most things Boots, it probably depends which SA you get. There are 2 in the little Boots I go to, one is a real jobs-worth, the other couldnt care less, so I always try to get the couldnt-care-less one if I am going for a glitch

I went into my local Boots earlier, put my card in the machine and got nothing but competition entry offers. So I had a wander round, put my card in a different machine, and got lots of extra points offers..... Toni&Guy, Bodyform, another haircare one (cant remember which brand).

Confusing indeed!!

I've had that before with different ACM's giving different offers. Going slightly OT now I have just scanned some of my shopping in to my clicker on Shop&Scan & I think the battery has gone, I've only had it a few weeks! Does anyone else use Shop&Scan, also Consumer Pulse? I'm sure Consumer Pulse must think I either make it up or spend a fortune LOL with all the Boots stuff I put in.

I got 3 summer eye paellettes and they went through fine on 342 but that was 10 days ago.
