    Hardly anything left at Middlebrook (Bolton) this morning. Grabbed a couple of packs of cards and some sim-card readers. But that was it really.

    I did manage to use my last 8 vouchers, though. I got 3 x Olay scrubs, 2 x Sanctuary moisturiser minis, 1 x Sanctuary cleanser mini (for some reason, the till would only let me have one of these free) and 7 x Sanctuary masks. Phew! I thought I wasn't going to be able to use them all.

    Hubby is getting a bit fed up of tripping up over toiletries everywhere he goes, though!!

    Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who contributes to this thread, particularly the people over the last few days who have said that 2 sanctuary mini facial washes go through with the £5 voucher. Went to 5 different boots today trying to use up my last 3 vouchers, and none of them had any thing left for around a fiver. I had resigned myself to the fact that I couldn't use them. But it really bugged me as I love getting things for nothing! So I just went back to one of the bigger stores near me, to try the mini facial washes and it worked. Paid at the pharmacy counter with 2 vouchers for 2 minis and 2 face masks to see it if worked, and then went back for 2 more minis to use up the last of my vouchers :T :T . I am so pleased I didn't have to throw the vouchers away, even the guy on the phamacy counter said what a bargin it was :rotfl:. Strange thing is though I asked a lady in the same store yesterday if the minis were included in the vouchers and she said no!
    2016 is the year I am going to find time for me, and cherish the time I spend with my friends and family.
    It is also time to save - Aim £4,000 - So far this year - £230/£4,000

    The 90% off sale has started in Prescot, I went this morning! its still the 75% off signs up, but the sale items scan at 90% off. I think there was only some talcs and 17 purses left though?

    Thanks may pop back tomorrow then. In Gemini anything with a clearance sticker was 90% does this work elsewhere?

    I ordered some aswell, but it's still processing:mad: . I don't hold out much hope getting them now! I will let you know what happens.
  • Newbie to bootsing. Have just got the hang of fleecing tescos and thought it was time to move on to something else! Is there a sticky or post somewhere that would help me get started? If not, where can i get all these vouchers from? I've joined the clubs and now expecting a boots baby next month - is there anything else i should be doing? Also, whats a moc.. a mail order coupon perhaps? :rolleyes: I generally try to do my shopping online, as i'm a lazy cow but will go to the stores if need be! Any advice would be much appreciated. :D
    November wins...a book, a designer handbag (worth £550 :T) and a game. I am now an addict and thank everyone for taking the time to share and post. :D
