Boots - Points Bonanza Continues... II

littlemisscheap

"Thats amazing Little Miss Cheap!! You are the bargain queen! " ;D

SavingsGirl, I actually think they just come to me - its like a magnetic attraction they have - sometimes I just wanna stop but boy is it addictive and do they leave me alone -uh uh! ::)

Take for example, Tues was my xmas shop at Ilford but then weds was open invite xmas shop at Liv St.!!

How could I not repeat the t&g process? ::)

Then from now until 7th there is the same going on online (1200 pts per £50 shop but not t&g) ???

Then from 8th-30th there is 10% off in local retail park store. :-/

Likewise although unlikely to have t&g (got so much anyway ) on the 1st Dec, there is yet another open invite xmas shop at Liv St!

What's a girl to do? except wait for the January sales, of course


BTW, talking of "Problem now is how to spend my 80 quids worth of points", reminded me of another good points deal that I got.....

Estee Lauder have a fabulous gift bag due out on 8th but already at Liv St. with any fragrance purchase so I bought (yep, with pts)

£39.50 Vanity Case including gorgeous makeup
£17.50 Beautiful 30ml perfume spray
Total of £57 (in t&gpts) + free matching holdall too

littlemisscheap - i thought I was a boots tart, but i think you REALLY take the biscuit!

well i didnt go to Retail Park Boots @ Inverness because the weather was minging. Went to trusty old Eastgate and didnt spend enough for a total spend so didnt need to use the machine. Also when i went in they were restocking the shelves so loads of assistants on shop floor to ask questions - however today i didnt need help1 typical thats all the way it happens.

HOWEVER Warehouse in the Eastgate Centre has closde down and i have to get gift tokens for there as a birthday presnet. Which means on Tuesday i have to go to Outfit. Which means i have to go to the Retail Park, hurrah! Guess whos gonna trash the Meal Deals section as none in Eastgate then? lol

I have got three 10pc tokens, ones valid till Tuesday coming and the others are valid 17th-23rd and 24th-30th November. However these are ONLY valid @ Eastgate, NOT Retail Park. Before i left for Boots dad was humming and hawwing about a digital camera so i thought there was no point wasting the token on my piddly amount of stuff - so what we can do is go to Retail Park for lunch, get the tokens go to boots for take-home lunch for Wednesday and look @ digi cameras then go back to Eastgate put back me stuff then get digi camera and of course - get total spend token off machine! with dad help! yay!

i am a happy bunny as i bought two cds and two dvds today along with all my usual friday rubbish.

Oh dear, hope they weren't meant for your mother-in-law!  ;D

Yeah, me agrees so now my hubby says I have to leave my boots card at home!

That's worse than saying I can't shop there, I can't even purchase with er... the few  :-X....pts I already have  :'(...okay, I do have "serious stuff" to get through :-/ but...  I hope to get it back by the xmas shop in Dec  ;)

Noooooooo!!! How can you live without your card!! Tis a serious addiction but makes me happy!! Got 2 lego sets reduced from £18 to fiver each yesterday AND they were still on 3 for 2 so got a stocking filler for my little boy too. All paid for with 1000 points- hurrah ;D

Ticklemouse

littlemisscheap - get a second card! Then you can tell hubby you've left your (original) one at home. ;D

Now if heavens forbid anyone told me i couldnt use my beloved Boots Advantage Card......................

.......................theyd probably get a bawling from me! that is sooooooooooooooooo dreadful littlemisscheap. i know i have too much toiletries, so ive cut down. most of them are actually from a posh shop called Lush, not from boots which i find quite funny.

i do however miss getting points on my lunches now Eastgate Centre which is easy to get to took all the yummy things to purchase away - that has SO cut down the points total I SHOULD have at the minute, as Retail Park which still has food is a pain in the neck to get to. Yes there are buses from town to Retail Park but they stop off near Tescos car park then i dont know where to go to get over to the actual shops so might fall on me bum. So therefore me doesnt go there much. Me was supposed to be getting to go to RP outlet on Tuesday but as the 105 off token is only valid @ Eastgate there isnt much points in going away to RP then faffing about in traffic to come back to Eastage. so no lunch for wedsnesday out of boots then.

also dozy me forgot that i wont actually be allowed to get the total spend token if i use the 10% one with the one token per transacton rule.

i think i know where mum put the magazine for sept/oct though so i can get the token for the bags of nuts because we seems to have got a display of them @ Eastgate, funny because most other food has gone bye bye. however i wont be able to use that token in same transaction as the didi camera so will have to check what day the bags of nuts tokens ran out. phew i thought it had been chucked out i couldnt find it.

only two and a half weeks of points collection to go, going to glasgow to cash them in on 25th november. which will be very sad, mum said i frowned the last time i actually spent any of the blooming things! lol!

savingsgirl

Advantage_Card, you shouldbe able to use the digital camera voucher and 50 points food in the same transation - I use lots of different vouchers at the same time and they all go through

Hi all,

Has anyone received a little boots booklet in the post (selective and oldtime customers) showing xmas gift ideas and with a voucher in it for bringing yourself and a friend for 1200 pts on a £50 shop? It also has double points vouchers too and shows when and where the next 1200 pts evenings will be.

I think we ALL want one! (I didn't get but a friend did!)

Hi

Yes I got one of these booklets yesterday.

I wonder if its because I didn't register for the earlier boots christmas evening so they are trying to get me to go now!!
