penniesforme

went to boots today, and bought another load of fcuk products. They were 87p each. got 2 fcuk bags free and loads of little travel sized bottles of shapoo, etc. will keep them as birthday pressies to give away.

in the clearance section, i managed to get loads of 20pence hairties, etc. hehehehe. i was planning to get some from Claire'sbut these are much nicer ones!!

then,..in 6 different transactions, i bought: 6 different sanctuary wash, lotion, spray etc with the skincare vouchers. (i had accumulated 5, and i found on on the display. ..its not from one of you is it? i hope nobody hid somewhere to watch my happy delighted face when i found it *blush*) SA was lovely! (there are some good ones in there after all!!) very patient and happily scanned all of them for me. yayayy!!


no new vouchers today, but i am a happy bunny. No mags so no diareeze tablets. oh well..i dont need them anyway.

Hey_Dude

2 days ago I placed an order for 3 lots of P&P.

Then the order went on 'hold'.

To cut a long story short whenever I've seen P&P come back in stock I've ordered some.

Now I have 3 orders on 'hold'.

Am I in trouble with the Boots Police?

Hi,
Read through the last don't know how many pages, but can't find the answer. Have not been bootsing for a while and don't know what the toothpaste glitch is. Can anyone please explain?


There is a glitch on toothpaste - not quite free but big savings. The Boots expert whitening pastes have been reduced from £3.99 to £1.99 and are on 3 for 2. I bought 3 tubes (boxes actually) and was charged a total of £1.98.

The receipt shows 2 x £3.99 less 3 x £2 saving, i.e the 3 for 2 kicks in and the discount is applied to the 3 tubes. Basically you get an extra £2 saving on each 3 tubes. Considering these were at some point £3.99 each you are actually only paying 66p per tube, which seems cheapish for a decent whitening paste.

I would suggest initially buying as many of the cheap mouthwash as you can, which combined with the machine voucher for 100 points per mouthwash glitch should build up your advantage points reserve (remembering to also use a total spend voucher if the cost is over £10/ £15 and claim a skincare/ sunglasses voucher) then using the 'free' advantage points to 'pay' for the toothpaste. Minty fresh for the next 5 years!:D

Don't think so but the girls on the till always comment on my balance which is usually a couple of hundred. I tend to save up for bigger items like ipods, pushchairs etc.
