Still catching up with recent posts - and I've been reminded of the Max Factor GWP as well as the others I was lusting after! Aaaargh! What do you lovely lot do with your GWPs - do you keep them for yourselves? I think I would be a bit embarrassed to give a freebie as a present - although personally i would be very happy to receive them. What do you all think?

put it away until it's not a freebie and then give it as a present....they'll either never know or not remember...or you can always add a little something extra from the Boots stash to make yourself feel less guilty.;)

Really chuffed with my Boots shop this afternoon.....I got


TOTAL SHOP VALUE - £57.39

Used the following Vouchers:
£5 wys £20 on No 7/RM PC voucher
£5 till voucher on No7/RM (from previous £10 spend)
200 pts on No 7 (from 75% gift set)
100 pts wys £5 on No 17 mag voucher
200 pts Max Factor PC voucher
500pts WYS £10 on baby stuff - PC voucher
Free Alldays with Always purchase (reduced bill by £1.89)
£10.25 highlights voucher - current mag

So total discounts of £22.14 meant a balance to pay of £35.25

Points added 1919:j

So in effect I paid £16.06 for that little shopping trip.

And.....I got another £5 voucher....so even better!


I love Boots:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

Edit: .....yes I know I could have gone through the till a few times and got more and more No.7 vouchers back but I already have four (from friends and neighbours who can't work it all out!) and just got another one

Wow, bet you feel really chuffed with that lot! Great stuff! And now you've got 5 vouchers to work out what to do with.....:rotfl:Enjoy!

Well I was more successful today

Am I getting the hang of it now, am I a real Bootster yet?

I'm impressed - I think you did it all perfectly and certainly qualify for your Bootsers award:j! Hope I am that successful next time I go....

I'm going to split up the GWP jewelery boxes i got today and add them to my hampers and save the 2 boxes for my Daughters in their Christmas stockings

I've also ordered some stuff from Avon with GWP again bags full of contents and will split those too

Highlighters are going in hampers too lol

Surely im a DFW now!!

Hi everyone

I recently signed DH up for a Boots card and PC and Health clubs. Have got the relevant vouchers through...and used them against my card.

Question is.........do you ever put transactions on your partner's card or do you just build the points up on one card.

I wondered whether I was being daft or sensible by putting all transactions through on my card.

Any thoughts or experience greatly appreciated.:D

I felt more confident today, I knew what deals I wanted to get and just focused on them, the other day I think i tried to do too much and lost the plot!

Someone mentioned on here on an earlier thread she looks on website and writes a list before going, think if you can visulise what you are looking for it makes it easier

Good luck with the next visit

I'm a Gloster bootser too.
Any one fancy being more location specific?

I live half way between Gloucester and Bristol so either go to Glos on a Sunday (when parking is free - money-saving and all that) - or to Cribbs Causeway where parking is free all the time!
Any suggestions of anywhere else I should venture to?
