    I was at boots today armed with a list and my masses of vouchers.

    boo hoo it was rubbish again.

    I could only get a Time Delay lip plumper they had no wipes or the balm to use Quit vouchers with :( ... Is it right i can use a £5 voucher on the hand cream as i was thinking its not facial skincare???

    I did get a couple of things cheap:

    50p nail varnish

    A Stretchmark cream from expert range, £2.25 in clearance - i used my half price parenting voucher and it showed on receipt as was 51p now 50p?? she took my voucher but i dont think it worked from that.

    I tried to use: the botanics 1/3 of body ACM voucher, 100pts mag and 1/2 pulse points to buy the unwind one - SA said the ACM one wouldnt work with the 1/2 price so i just bought it for £2... odd.

    - Also im annoyed as i asked the SA to take my nappies off my points and i gave her a 75p off pampers voucher, took my voucher, didnt take it off my points so i paid and the only discount i got was the 20% off baby dept :(

    And i got another £5 voucher back but at this rate nothing is in stock to use them.

    ..not a good bootsing session today but im moany today so please bear with me LOL

    yes the voucher works on time delay hand cream. I got 2 the other day.
    As £3 voucher would not work with the £5 one.

    Just got back from my holidays and needed to get Bootsing again! lol I know it's triple points weekend but I can't get any codes to work for £55+ orders:confused: . It just says not valid at this time. Can we not use these now when it is triple points - does anyone know please? Thanks.

    Just bought 12 for £10.50. MIL loves Olay self heating exfoliator so I'll be in the good books! Will probably give her 6 and use the other 6 plus the 3/4 I already have for myself :D

    how much is the exfoliator?

    got some photos developed yesterday (collected today). used the 24h service for digital photos.

    I split my 50 photos into 5x10 lots and printed separate receipts for each transaction.
    I then used £2 off digital photo voucher with each lot.
    PLUS 200 points when you use 1h or 24h digital processing voucher from the ACM...

    So overall...

    5 x 10 photos = 50 photos
    5 x £2 vouchers = £10 off...so photos free.
    Then the best bit.... 5 x 200 points = 1000 points

    So i got 50 free prints + £10 in boots points! Very happy!:D
    Just make sure u split your order up into lots of 10s

    Hi can u please tell me where do u get the £2 off digital voucher from??
    I have mangaed to get the 200points from acm but cannot find any £2 off digital voucher

    As £3 voucher would not work with the £5 one.

    the £3 is only for radiance balm or moisturiser spf 15, so it only works in conjunction with the £5 for those 2 time delay.
