    Hi,
    I work in the city centre of Newcastle and quite often have a dander around boots to make the most of the more than generous offers they tend to throw our way! The thing is I get so jealous when I hear of people find tons of bargains because in the Eldon Square Boots I CANNOT FIND THEM!!! Can anyone point me in the right direction of where to look for these mega bargains! I've seen the little section behind the Benefit counter that sometimes stocks old sale stock but nothing on any other shelves. I promise I won't take it all!! Thanks!!!

    Eldon Square Boots is very hitty-missy. Usually the only bargains they have are the little section you've already found - I'm convinced the staff there keep all the good stuff hidden away for themselves! Usually the place to find sale stuff is on the back wall upstairs, & around the tills, but I don't know where it'll be this time cos the holiday stuff's there this year.

    The big boots in the metrocentre is much better for bootsing - usually a few baragins to be found although you've got to hunt for them, cos they keep moving the discount section!

    Best of luck, let us know if you find any bargains! I'll post any I find on here, and promise I won't take them all!

    i'm asking for help please, i have lots of boots vouchers and want to buy an ipod (8g nano or 30G). Liverpool doesnt do them anymore and Trafford centre doesnt have one, i am off north to the lakes (keswick) this weekend and would appreciate it if any of you boots experts know of a branch with ipods in so i can buy one with my points. ideally near the m6 so i dont have to take much of a detour. (Thanks in advance as my button doesnt work)

    Oh, and I forgot to mention, sometimes the better place for bootsing bargains in Newcastle is (surprisingly) the little boots at the haymarket, although it depends what you're looking for - stock range isn't huge, but what they do have is usually good.

    Unfortunately it doesn't get 500 extra points!

    I worked late yesterday and didn't get a chance to nip into Boots to checkout the sale. So I went first thing this morning. Wish I hadn't bothered. What a rubbish sale and expensive too! I saw some Botanics gift sets for 5.00. I bought these in the January sale for 2.00 + I got a free cream with each one (remember the glitch?) I checked AC machine for latest offers and got 500points on any memory card again. Still no memory cards on sale in my local store though, but they are valid for a couple of weeks so might try another store. Searched high and low for reduced R&M but didn't find anything. They have a sign up saying reduced items are not included in the 500points offer. I'm not sure how this would work though, as the points would go on automatically, wouldn't they? Best to pay at pharmacy if you are lucky enough to find any reduced items (Well done to the person who said they'd found some reduced items and gained a load of points), just incase you get a jobsworth removing your points.

    I still haven't had my points from my mouthwash order a few weeks ago. How long have other people had to wait for their points?? Should I phone up and query it?? It does say that they are pending on my account page on .com - has done for a while... and still nothing but comps for me on the ACM! Haven't had anything on there for ages!!!
    But I did pick up 3xSanctuary bath stuff for a £1 each and some foot cream for a £1. Friends bday pressies sorted:D
