    i sent in to my daughters school today a big box full of botanics stuff that i had aquired for next to nothing, you know when we get the reduded and get more in points lol, they sent a letter home early in the week asking for toiletries for the harvest festival - when i handed them in they were really pleased as they have had poor interest - so i have room for more boots stuff and others get stuff they need - happy days!

    Thats lovely its such a shame that harvest festival gets a bad response! and may i just say thats a HELL OF a lot of points on your and your OH's card! How long have you been professionally bootsing for?! well done!!!

    I take it that you didn't tell them about Bootsing at interview!:eek:

    Of course not! ;) The lady asked if I knew much about the company..... I said well I shop there! I left out the fact I shop there every day :rotfl:

    In the warehouse I saw all the shelves of nappies, wipes etc along with everything else..... Boots heaven :rotfl:

    since january we decided that we needed to have 400.00 on my advantage card to be able to afford presents on 342 for the kids, I have 4 from 6yrs to 11 months.

    Follwing all the tips on here and all the lovely help and advise from all msers we achieved that massive total a while back, and now they keep building, we bought a digital camera and printer last month with points and i have also bought a few things with points to turn back into cash ;)

    ps, theres a great code for 5 off 20 on tesco direct can be used on presale prices and order a value sim, free delivery, I got 4 presents with free delivery for under 3quid!! Nice clocks!

    A little hard work really does pay off! and i think i'm finally turning OH's head on coupons as he was well in my handbag doing my shopping at morrisons today, told me i couldn't have any choc unless i had a coupon - out came a 3 pound one :D
    coupon over here, coupon over there, every crack filled with coupons even down there
    (meaning under the buggy lol):D

    Theres a code for tesco direct that gives £5 off a £20 spend BUT if you buy things that are in clearance, they give the discount for the code before they take the discount for the clearance so you het mega bargains!

    I hope that mekes some kind of sense!

    The code is here

  • Been to Boots in Liverpool today (don't go there often as it's too far to travel). Not much left in the sale but they were reduced to £1.00 - I got a Pilates/Yoga Starter Kit reduced from £14.99 to £1.00. There was a few of them left this afternoon but don't know what will be there tomorrow. Loads of hair accessories there but not sure how much they were.

    They also had some perfume/aftershave but these were 75% off - got some aftershave for DH for £5.50 instead of £22.00 and some perfume for myself for £9.00 instead of £36.00.

    Tried 2 of the ACM's and neither of them worked.:sad:

    I was pleased with what I got and thought I'd done alright seeing that I'm new to this.

    :beer:
