    For a change I decided to treat myself. Picked up a brita water jug and a pack of 4 filters for £15 in the clearance section. Decided to treat myself and used some of my points to pay for it. Things are far better when they're free.

    Yesterday I redeemed my points to get a couple of Sanctuary products in the sale. They didn't go through at half the sticker price, so ended up paying £5. I bought the same items and paid in cash last Friday, cost was £2.50.

    Go back & ask for the diff to be refunded - you are entitled to it!

    First time ever my points value is up over £300! Going to go into Boots on my way to pick DD up & see if there is anything I need, or anything in the sale for presents I want.

    The Boots in Winton, Bournemouth has loads of clearance electricals at the back of the shop such as Carmen Girls hair straighteners for £2.50 and hot brushes for 1.49.

    They also have dirt cheap digital cameras behind the desk - I bought one for £20, as a replacement for the identical one which cost me over £100 originally.

    It is only a small branch, but I got better stuff there than the huge one at Castlepoint.

    If only I had my advantage card:rolleyes:

    This is a bit geeky, but interesting to hear Boots take on the Advantage card and how they think customers feel about it.

    There's a big one at Piccadilly Circus, bang in the centre where I need to go - and others like Oxford Street nearby. I also know a couple of excellent bars/cafes etc for post-Bootsing refreshments. Coming Cerenia?

    This could end up being a mass gathering......imagine the SA's faces when a 100-strong posse of Bootsers march in! :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Thanks everyone for the advice on the central London stores!! My friend is going to lend me her card to obtain any vouchers there may be in the ACM's.

    Would love a mass gathering of Bootsers... but I'll have my 11 year old son with me! He gets v annoyed with me over my Bootsing!!!

    Just had this email from paypal saying there is a new offer on Boots.com for money off with £40 & £75 spends. Trouble is that it's only valid for new shoppers or first timers....details below. I think it's time my Mum put in an order!! :D

    Smartie - yeah but how happy will he be with a toy (Boots sale of course) and a milkshake as bribery? :-)
