savingsgirl

fantastic Boots expedition today - spent £22, got £28 worth points. Got 4 looney tunes toys for the kids, then went and bought 2 estee lauder giftsets for Xmas pressies with points and got a free estee lauder bag of goodies for me!! ;D

Excellent saving

what did you buy??

6x natural collection shower gels, reduced to 49p and on 3 for 2

Glitter babes stuff 99p each, on 3 for 2 with 50 extra points voucher (150 points)

My biggest bargain though was the Traditional range - got 350 points vouchers and most are only about £2.20 each, so stocked up for Xmas pressies

what is the traditional range?

I looked in store today for this, but couldnt find it.

Did you get 50 points for each glitter babe item, I assumed it was only deducted once. As it says only one voucher per transaction

am i right in assuming that unless you hand in the tokens from the machine with the extra points you dont get them, so me buying the same products you are all recommending as great deals doe not give me any extra points at all????????????

I think this may be the case

- just make sure that the points go on even if you have a voucher. I've had to ask them to put them on manually before now as they havent gone on automatically even with the voucher

Traditional range stuff gets my hubby 200 pts but even then not that keen as the line is quite er... traditional? The hand cream is such that I just feel like leaving it in store after paying for it and getting my pts - its really awful stuff and yet I have problem skin on my hands.

Glitter babes scented roll on things were £1 each and 3for2 (and non-glittery! - hurrah as I hate the glitter going everywhere) bagged 9 of these for £6 and 450pts.

Good buy at the moment is the Skin Kindly soaps, they are 3for2 at £1.09 each and you should get 150pts for spend over £2 (alas these have to be added manually!)
works out 68p for 3 bars or 23p a bar!

Didn't realise what the advantage card machines were for until I started reading these boards!! Looks like I've been missing out! Looked through the offers yesterday and got a coupon for Crest kids electric toothbrushes BOGOF. Not bad as they worked out at £2.49 each

Also had a coupon for 50 points on any glitter babes purchase, but couln't find anything for less than £2(didn't see the roll on smellies) and didn't want to buy something just for the sake of it!! So left that one.

Will definately be using the machines every visit from now on

By using the vouchers from the machine you can shop for next to nothing - like I did yesterday! Its always worth having a look at the reduced stuff- sometimes you can get extra points on it or it could be included in a 3 for 2 - I got 6 Natural colletion shower gels yesterday for £1.96. I'm expecting ababy early next year so my points will be going towards a new sterilizer etc.. plus I'll smell lovely!!
