Happy easter weekend to you all!

SuperKeenMoneySaver here:

went to liverpool street station yesterday and they have SELF SCAN CHECK-OUTS!! I was sooo happy! Went to double-check whether S&G Clean of England had been reduced to £1.20 but sadly not here. NO MF gift sets to be found. Went to the Estee lauder counter and asked whether they were still doing the mascara exchange but they said no!

Went to london colney yesterday evening and the lovely estee lauder gave me my free sample (courtesy of glamour mag) and she let me exchange an old mascara for another (different) sample! Very happy! Also managed to get:

Shop 1:

eyelure eye jewels set £2
no7 mens face wash £6
Olay total effects hand cream £4.97
Total to pay: £5 + 350points + £2 till spit received!

Used: £3 off no7 mens, 250pts on no7 from GWP, 100pts on no7 men from mag, £5 off Olay mosturiser PC voucher.

Shop 2:

17 precision eye liner black 58p
17 precision eye liner grey 58p
17 lip glaze

Total to pay: 58p!!
Used: free lip glaze voucher from mag

Shop 3:

JF 5ml at £1.99
Total: FREE
Used: £2 till spit - which i didn't realise till i was in the car but the SA gave back to me!

Might call up CS again to tell them how wonderful the staff in London Colney are!

Watford Harlequin Boots has a big stack of the MF black hexagonal GWPs and I got one free today:j .

Sadly my Advantage Card has stopped scanning so I requested a new one which will be 2-3 weeks. I got the receipts validated but I begrudged not getting total spend points and couldn't get the Soap and Glory stuff I wanted

Just incase you feel you are missing out, you can have the points vouchers from the advantage card machine added to your receipt they just scan them like normal and validate, so maybe if someone else was with you they could print some for you to use. i am assuming your card has stopped working in the acm.

I also thought i would share, my mum needed some more points to buy a meal deal for her and dad at the airport, i didn't want to lend her my card so i just had some of my receipts validated so that she could add them on to her card and have enough.

This could be a good way to help out family or friends saving for large items who are only a bit away from the total, it's good to share

So, when I go in I buy the meal deal and something else to make it up to £5 to get the JF till split and get a magazine without having it scanned.

You could rip the coupons out of the magazine before queuing, then have it scanned with your shopping.

Then I use the vouchers inside the magazine to get the Expert mitt and toothbrush, the till split for the JF hairspray and for the mens No7 I use my 250 points voucher, 100 points magazine voucher and the one from the meal deal. Can I use all these vouchers on 1 item? Have a magazine scanned.

Yes, I've been using all 3 coupons with the mens No7.

I have another 2 of those 250 points vouchers so can I keep going through the tills with them and the 100 magazine points to buy more No7?

Yep.

I think I will need to get 3 magazines to do this and each time I go through the till if I spend over £5 will I get a JF till spit?

You sure will.

Just be aware that some of the sandwiches don't have the £3 voucher in anymore, so probably best to get any more £3 vouchers you need now, rather than wait until next week.

Good luck!

I've just got back from Camberley and they have those Ted Baker bags reduced there, too. I was sorely tempted. I wish I'd got the vanity bag now as it is really nice. I did buy the usual toothbrush, JF spray and expert items, also a baby toothbrush using PC voucher and I treated DH to a Lily O'Brien Easter egg with points and myself to a hair colour - finally! Will be doing that tonight. No more mags left in Camberley at all, haven't been for ages. Any in Bracknell, hesjane?
