Then i repaid and got a voucher to enter the customer survey along with a goody bag as a thankyou with loads of Lancome and Revlon goodies inside. :j Result!

I got two surveys in different stores in one day but didn't get a goody bag for either :rolleyes: well done :j

Hi, excuse my ignorance, what is the ACM?

Thanks

Advantage Card Machine - whereby you put your advantage card in to print off some offers.
Not available in all stores, and not working in most that do have them

it's an Advantage Card Machine.... i think they are being rebranded in stores as "extra offers kiosks" and are smaller and bright pink!

i tried to use the vouchers to get the Olay total effects hand cream

Me too - sa said - you can't get extra points when you haven't actually spent any money - I said can you just try it please - she did - it beeped - she was smug!

I was smugger when I left as she had put the £5 voucher back in the bag with my handcream - handcream free - still got voucher! :T :T

I'm new to all this Bootsing lark but I had a pretty good day today (I think, lol)

3 for 2 on my (expensive) toothpaste and then an instore leaflet for £2 off an £8 spend on toiletries - easily achieved

a memory card reduced to £10 - half price at the till - then 500 points
Clinique bonus time freebie (very pleased with my non reduced purchases here) and I was only expecting to get one of the "extra" freebies here but I got both - so very pleased again.

And I'm not the proud owner of 3 £5 skincare vouchers - which will probably give me enough face wipes until Xmas.

Oh and triple points and 3 for 2 on Maxfactor - and I had a voucher for 200 points on a Max Factor Mascara

I feel quite smug anyway :cool:

Is this the start of a slippery slope? :eek:

Looks like your def on the verge of an addiction (Do they know you've escaped from the gambling thread?)

Well done on your shop.

Anyone know if the 500pts on Olay Total Effects from the Preg club will work on the Facial wash thats only £5.99 or 99p with the £5 voucher? Voucher says any total effects product!

Got the preg club 2 free cameras today and used the last Time delay £3 off voucher i had and she gave them back to me I asked why they didnt work and she said they did! So i get to use them again

What's this I see....a Jessicamb on the Bootsing thread.....surely the MB profits haven't slowed down THAT much (if at all)???:D

Welcome to the gang - the more the merrier - but be warned, it's great fun and VERY addictive!

Masses of Sanctuary clearance stuff refused to work with the GWP....even though it worked fine last week. Politely asked SA to void it all and just got Time Delay Moisturiser with £5 voucher and £3 stop smoking voucher - worked fine this time so not sure what went wrong yesterday.

And to make up for Sanctuary stuff, a lovely Russian lady behind me insisted I use my advantage card to get all her points AND take her £5 voucher because "I don't do all this silly things but you most welcome my dear". I didn't argue with her!!!! :T

I was in the big Oxford St Boots on tuesday and someone spent £200 and didn't have a Boots card :eek: :shocked: I was soooooo tempted to ask if I could have her points :rotfl:

Ok so I went to boots today armed with £5 gift voucher, £5 skincare voucher and my no7 250 point voucher. REALLY disappointed with the sale most of the items I wanted (the ones I saw the other day) had gone :eek:

However, I did find 2x no7 nail varnishes £6 to £2.50, one no7 lip compact thing red stickered £6 to £2.50, a reduced barbie perfume and bracelet £5, a red stickered wash kit £6 to £2.50 and a reduced nivea shower wash £1.25. This totaled about £16.25. Now I could have got triple points but that didn't occur until I was paying :eek: because I split the shopping into 2 groups to get the 2x extra £5 skincare vouchers. I used the £5 gift voucher and the extra points voucher on one shop so only had to pay £1.35 so total shopping cost £11.35 and 2x £5 skincare vouchers and points. Oh, also used the ACM for the first time and printed several points vouchers afterwards, basically printed everything that was offered :rotfl:

I now have 3x £5 vouchers to use and lots of points vouchers for lots of things. My question to all you bootsers is whats the best options/combinations for the £5 vouchers

You can use the £5 voucher with a voucher from the quit smoking pack on two items in time delay and there are also more offers on the front page too offer for these vouchers end 28th august.

Personally, I like to get things for free so have used mine mostly on time delay as they are under £5... for eg, i have got the cleanser, toner and exfoliater for 0.00 :T :T

I've more to spend tomorrow - wooohooo!
