Just want to remind anyone who buys huggies nappies that, although they are doing 2 for £10, their value boxes are 1p cheaper with more nappies!

Today, I wanted to use a boots points voucher they sent me and went to pick up 2 for £10 which would equate 60 nappies (size 5) But thought I'd check and see if they still had the value boxes, and they did! £9.99 for 75. Just a heads up in case others weren't aware.

In other news, all the items for the vouchers under £5 are constantly sold out at my local store!! Having accrued another £5 voucher I'm not impressed that I haven't even got rid of the first one yet! LOL, will try and get there bright and early!

My Boots tips.

I am sure we all organise our bootsing in different ways, I would like to share my tips with you and would be interested to hear yours.

1) I keep an MSE book by the PC, that I jot down useful info whenever I see it. Especially handy for the codes for Boots etc. I used to use bits of paper that ended up lost or in the bin. Or knee deep in scrap paper. Re codes, I put the end date too. Very handy for a memory aid to anything Boots related. So easy to refer back to also. Try to use a different page/pages every day, (Less confusing) and add the date if you prefer.

2)When reading the posts, and trying to catch up, I speed read, then copy all the interesting posts and paste them into an email, then send it to myself and read it later at my leisure.

So easy to 'lose' messages on a busy board. I then read it, edit it, delete anything I don't want and forward the final item back to myself, and print out if necessary. Keeping it in my book for safety of course. That way I can highlight important bits. Makes a great memory aid for the next Boots expedition.

3) I prioritise my vouchers, into most likely/least likely to use. I put the ones that I know I will use of my next outing into a small cash bag from the bank. Paper clip linking ones together.

The remainder I keep in a plastic sectioned sheet. The type that the kids use to keep their trading/football cards in. All the best in one side, not so good in the other. It folds up really small, and I can see in a flash what is there. All the spare ACM that I have not used, I fold in half with any duplicates & paper clip together. Keep totally seperate. (Just in case)

New ACM received that day go in my pocket for easy access that day. Most times I will only use the ones in my bank cash bag, and my pocket. But I know exactly where to find the others if I need them.

4) I sort everything the night before. Usually based on what I have read on the posts here. New glitches, bargains etc. It has helped me speed up my shopping, and makes me look less like a shoplifter. Mind you how many shoplifters go round with fistfuls of vouchers? I think I will say that to the next security man that follows me.:cool:

5) get rid of any ACM vouchers that last only one day, shred them, as they have your name on.

6) Carry a small pair of scissors in your bag to cut out coupons (More professional)

Can't think of anything else at the moment, hope these help. I look forward to any you can share also.:j
P.S. If there are still loads of pages to read and you are going to bed. Send yourself a link of the last page you read. Then pick up where you left off, instead of having to work backwards.

Yes. I'm really disappointed by it. Having missed the last one I was hoping for another set with some nice miniatures in. As for having to spend £20 to get it, well, let's just say I think I shall be passing.

mhe

Thanx for that pollsdolss. I keep my coupons in an envelope in my handbag so i always have them to hand. ACM vouchers also in pocket on trip to store. Put double points vocher in wallet with boots card so remember to use it. I too make notes of good spend deals and write down the page i was last on. I cant log on in work so there are usually loads of pages to go thru each night. Iv kind of become addicted and im a newbie - look at the time and im still up! I could stay up for the 5.30 sale update lol :rotfl:

Well done on your latest haul. And good luck with staying up. I am just going to check Boots.com once more and then off to bed. To be honest I have what I want from the sale (unless anymore XBoxes or PSPs appear;)) and will start to concentrate on boosting via glitches......damn Tena lady's are still not back in stock:rotfl: (never thought I would be looking to buy those for at least another 30 - 40 years :rotfl:)
