    I've been Money Tipped!
    Was in local Boots today and picked up a few offers, I checked the machine and got 100 points again after it being 50 points the other day for Med range. Anyway, picked up some conditioner, mint and vanilla I think it was. Anyway it was marked down to 55p got that, along with a four roll pack of film (that the SA picked up for me, was going to get 3 for 2 before that), that got me another 100 points, and 100 points for £10 spend and double points so got around 500 points total. I didn't want to hammer the Med range again, only a few bottles of stuff and I'm not too keen on them. Just picked up the stuff that I liked. The SA I kind of knew from being in the store a lot, anyway she was surprised at the points I picked up, when I paid 55p and got 100 points. Told her about the site etc and she asked if there was many of the conditioners left etc, so I picked up three for her, she will also be getting her staff discount too. She'd been on the site before but just for Boots points, when it came up on a search but now she said she'd be checking through a bit more thoroughly than before. A MSE convert (you know who you are). ;) Hope you pick up some bargains. :D

    Nervous as this is my first message - I had a really good shop today. Bought a managers special - No 7 make up travel set, reduced from £25 to £7.50, a Charles Worthington colour bright shampoo £4.19 and Mediteranean face mask for 66p. The assistant told me that some points had not been entered so manually entered them - I was given 350 points! I don't think that the 100 should have been given for the face pack! I realised when I got back into the car that I forgot to give my double points voucher - dismay. Total spend £12.35 instead of £32.19 plus 350 points excellent days shopping.

    I went into Leamington Spa branch today, still gave me 100 points voucher out of the machine and they've got the toners marked at £1 that go through the tills at 66p. It's not quite over yet!!

    Got a 100 pt voucher for Med range out the machine today - but sure enough, gift bags are excluded. I laughed out loud when I saw that - sure they think I'm a complete nutter in Boots now, laughing at the points machine. :D

    Was in Boots today studying the buys for the £10 electrical voucher. I had a 100 points voucher for Med range along with a ton of other points offers etc for makeup, lotions, pills and potions etc. Picked up some shampoo for 65p a bottle, SA on the makeup counter wondered about the points I got, have to say some of the SAs have been none too happy about the amount of points I'd been getting with this offer so was quite surprised when she appeared chuffed that I've been raking in the points. Mentioned MSE and the newsletter, said she definitely be checking it out.

    Went to the Advantage machine today -as u do Including the one for 100 points when you buy from the Mediterranean range. So off I went to the reduced section- there was 2 types of Mediterranean conditioner reduced, wasn't sure on price so only got 2.

    Discovered mint vanilla milk conditioner 55p and wheat germ apricot walnut conditioner 65p.

    Got free sample of Eliz Arden 8 hour cream.

    later after lunch went back got 3 more mint vanilla milk conditioner from the shelf and made the SA put them all through separately so I could get the points added.
    had to be added manually.

    So spent £2.85 and got 510 points back

    Went to another 2 Boots spent points on 1 x Vo5 SHAmpoo £1, 1 x baby SHAmpoo £1, 1 x jar baby food 34p - all from reduced section.
    Tesco points: 101 (£21.50, £19.50, £7.50, £21 & £5)
    Boots points: £0.28
    Pigsback points: 715 (4 xBoots£10 & 1 xPizzaHut£10, 2 x £10 clothing vouchers)
    Mutual points: 3417 (redeemed 8250)
    Rpoints:redeemed 28925 points)Cashbag:£8.91(£20)

    Went to Boots this morning and they are still giving out the Med voucher with 100 points from the machine though it now says that you can't use it on face packs, gift bags and miniatures.
