    Finally managed to get into Boots and join in the fun of the double up coupons. So a big thanks to all the contributors on this thread.
    Who remembers that last one like this - the Ruby and Milly mirror as part of the Xmas three for two? Hey ho, they were the days, but it's so good to "see" some of the old bootsters on this thread... where are you Mimi and Sandra Scarlett! :D

    Quick question to all you avid Bootsers - have I missed the boat on this? :eek: I have 2 sets of the £5 and £3 vouchers from Boots that haven't been used yet as I've not been able to get into town- am I too late to get a good bargain and what would be my best buy to use my vouchers? I don't have any of the till spits you guys have mentioned though. I guess things I would definitely use would be mascara, nail polish, skin wipes but money for makeup treats is tight so I would want to spend as little as possible. :D

    I can't work out how best to go about it - any helpful advice would be very much appreciated! :)

    yes I'm afraid you've missed the boat - and none of the items you'd buy are glitchy ones, so for example,

    mascara you'd get £3 off only with your voucher, plus possibly another £2 off if you have a Boots advantage card and get a £2 off mascara coupon from the acm machine. So you'd still have around £6 plus to pay for your mascara.

    wipes are skincare so you'd get £5 off them with one of your vouchers. So they would be £2 after using your voucher.

    nail polish is make-up so again, it would be £3 off with a voucher. £3 to pay (they are £6 each).

    :j Thank you so much balletshoes! Bit disappointing but I think my best (and cheapest) option would be then to get 2 x nail polish using 2 x £3 vouchers cost would be £6 and then 2 x face wipes using 2 x £5 vouchers cost would be £4 - total spend £10 is that right? No glitches or 3 for 2 offers for me unfortunately then :( Never mind - there's always next time - bring on the next glitch :rotfl:

    Just to clarify - offers change over tonight but both 3for2 and bogohp are carrying over into the next period. Your vouchers are valid until Sunday but no new ones will be given out.

    I don't know whether they'll still be glitching, but I wouldn't have thought anything will change so I'd still give it a go!

    I think it still works out cheaper for me to use my vouchers with staff discount than with this glitch as we don't have self service tills, but it's a brilliant grabbit!

    Well, there was some extreme Bootsing done by me tonight!

    Bought 3x wipes - £4 (did this twice)

    1x P&P foundation+tinted moisturiser - £6.25

    1x extreme length mascara+tinted moisturiser - actually got £1.75 back in cash for this! Was not expecting it. I panicked slightly because I had to keep calling an SA over as the SS till wasn't reading that I'd put the vouchers in the slot. Thought he would have rumbled me with the -£1.75 showing on the till but he didn't.
