    he was like toni and guy 2 for 7 or 9.99 each do they do a mens one? :rotfl:

    I just bought two of these in the pink as i presumed these were the womens ones... mens blue?? i asked a SA nearby who said he didnt know but as they blue one had a curl balm in my hubbie said he didnt think they were mens..

    wish id realised now as id have got one in each colour.. bargain either way though.

    I've just been and bought more toys tonight from the metrocentre one but there wasnt much else in the other bits... shame if they are all half price again tomorrow :mad:

    Is that Bon Accord store?? Could kick myself, i was in Bridge of Dee one yesterday and picked up baby stuff and no 20% off. Typical!!!

    Yes Bon Accord centre, although was in Garthdee tonight and the 20% off was there too, so it must have just started today! Poor you, it is so frustrating missing out on these things!!

    Hope your overdue bump makes and appearance soon!

    Thanks, might just drag my 41+ week pregnant bump into town tomorrow for more bits. Might help kick start things! :confused:

    Both my daughter and myself have had a voucher in the post from the Boots parenting club, both have the same barcode and neither of them have our advantage card numbers on them but they do have some sort of number on them. The vouchers are for double points on every shop of certain baby items, none of which we are ever likely to use.
    So do we get them scanned anyway so the Boots computer sees this as activity and we might get other vouchers and offers? Or hurl them in the recycling bin.
    I expect everyone gets these vouchers so I dont suppose there is much use in passing them along - assuming that they will work on anybodies card.
    They are for double points on Boots own label, pampers nappies and wipes. Heinz baby foods, avent bottles and sterilisers, johnsons baby toiletries.

    I like the previous ladies idea of using the machine to cancel her baby club memebership and then rejoining again the next day and so hopefully getting all the benefits all over again. Has anyone else tried it?

    I visited 2 boots today-found the air brush prop pellant reduced to £3 so used points for that-wanted more but hopefully they will be reduced tomorrow so decided to wait, they were unpacking lots and lots of stuff and i saw some sanctuary bits-where have boots been hiding all this stock some of it is ancient and covered in dust!
    The second store was awful they had loreal, maybelline and revlon makeup reduced to £5 in a sale even the products that are cheaper full price were marked £5 which is ridiculous- I thought dream on mr boots!I only went in to check out the new sarah jessica parker covet perfume( i admit i sprayed lots on my top which I am planning to wear to work tomorrow) hopefully proper bargains tomorrow.

    I have continuously altered my due date for the parenting club on every visit I make to boots via the advantage card machine, and have now recieved in excess of 15 or so welcome packs with loadsa money off coupons - I also managed to get some great freebies when you could use the NO7 parenting club voucher against anything - i got the mirror and facial spa, and took both back and was given cash even without a reciept -also took the huggies bag back without a reciept and was given £30 in cash (think that was what it retailed at) :rotfl:
  • :cool: :rotfl: :T :A I forgot to say, it's thanks to you guys that I got and am always on the hunt for new freebies, so a big fank-oooooooo goes out to the lot of u, especially cookie who seems to be the mastermind to all these boots shenanigans!!!
    :money: :beer: :j :p;):D:o
  • Had an absolutely craptastic trip to Boots today. Had a list of things to get and marked beside it whether it was a coupon/ money off/ points so I wouldn't get muddled. Went in for
    Bourjois mobile lip glosses @20p. Still priced at £3.50
    Olay regenerist skin polisher (£3.75 on .com) 500 point coupon from parenting mag. Priced at £6.00 in store
    Olay regenerist daily creme wash (3.25 on .com) 200 point coupon. Priced at £5.50 in store
    Baby organic rice half price with parenting coupon-none in stock
    Hipp organic first taste free with parenting coupon- got it:j
    Reduced pantene which my sister bought for £2.50 for 900ml, 200 points coupon, none left in stock
    I had 2x save £1 on botanics bathing and 100 points coupon from h&b magazine and there was no reduced botanics left
    SA wouldn't put my toni & guy 100 points from acm through as I had a mini (thought I'd try it)
    SA also wouldn't give me the free changing bag without buying nappies.
    No memory cards under £10
    And the piece de resistance, after holding off to see if p&p was going to go into 3 for 2 I decided to get it today because I really fancied the gwp and my haggard face needs it. SA wouldn't let me have the gwp because I had a reduced no7 item to make it up to £18 so I just took the p&p.:o
    I did get my DD some reduced toys though which I suppose will be half the price tomorrow. Through most of this I had 2 crying kids
    I am rubbish at this, all you ladies who get good bargains, I applaud you. You have my respect, just be glad you don't live in Glasgow.:cry:
