  • Morning All :)

    Just been for a little shop as you do on a Wednesday (over 60 discount in B&Q) and passed Boots so had to pop in got Expert Sensitive eye gel £1.74 on shelf went through as £1.39 used 100 points did that twice - no till bleep so that voucher must have been sorted now.

    Paid with points for 2 more S&G scrub box's and some shock wave gel B1g1f.
    and thank you to the OP for telling me that 1 glaze & 2 pencils are stilling going through for .50p did that 3 times - so now nieces have lip gloss, glazes & pencils in all colours for their hampers.
  • allso took 3 different toothbrushes to the counter but non would go through with the voucher from the magazine - what am I doing wrong :confused:
  • OH said I could have had some of his fine sandpaper instead of the mitts as his paper is smoother :rotfl:
  • If some kind person has time will you do me an idiots guide to using the photobucket link thingy - I can do a picture using tiny pic but would like to learn this other way.

    many thanks I know somebody will come to my rescue :beer:

    Off to get a hair colour, too as need cheering up. I used the Botanics elixir and it has given me thrush :( so now I'm going to have to spend Boots points to get me better....I hate spending money/points like that - it's not exactly a treat is it?



    Oh my God, I know how you feel, I got some FCUK sugar scrub and after using it I got thrush as well and had to spend 10 pounds on treatment for it. Its so horrible especially when you have spent money treating yourself to something nice. Hope you feel better soon. xx
    It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for something you are not.

    Went in today and the 17 342's finished.


    Was in a Boots (not my local 2) and asked when this offer will finish. SA went to some papers and said 25 March, so have a few days yet to get 341. Looks like my local ones have jumped the gun.

    (Caveat is of course, what happens in my Boots might not happen in yours!). HTH

    A great morning's shopping for me this morning :j

    Transaction 1: (in tiny store that I never usually bother with)
    Expert baby wash £1.99 (said £2.49 on the SEL though)
    2 x colgate total protection toothbrushes from clearance 40p each :D
    Used 100pts wyb any expert from magazine - went through no problem.

    Then went to the bigger boots and they had a pretty decent clearance shelf (about time too, they haven't had anything for the last few weeks!)...
    Transaction 2:
    3 x fcuk men's bodywash @ 88p each :D
    3 x fcuk men's bodyspray @ 88p each :D
    Best of all these were on 3 for 2 (which I didn't realise until the very lovely SA pointed it out to me)
    Expert sensitive toner £1.99 (said £2.49 on the SEL though)
    JF small serum.
    Handed over 100pts expert voucher (again, no problem, no beeps) and hair spit.
    Total to pay £5.51 with 112 points back.

    Transaction 3:
    Expert sensitive twin pack razors £1.49 (again, SEL said £1.99)
    Sanctury exfoliating foot wipes £2.50 from clearance (not sure of original price, will have a look on .com)
    JF small serum
    MF GWP ;)
    100pts expert voucher and hair spit handed over. Total to pay £3.99 and 108 points back.

    The SA looked quite bemused at the MF GWP, she said "errrrr, this is coming up free" while looking like this: :confused: I said "I know" while looking like this: :D and she said she was going to go and grab one before they all go! She reckoned the reasoning behind it was because of the out of date extra points voucher inside.

    Transaction 4:
    Used last remaining till spit to get another JF serum. If I don't have the smoothest, sleekest hair in Coventry I shall demand to know why!

    This was all in Coventry btw. Loads of Sanctury foot stuff on the clearance and loads of fcuk mens stuff left too :)
    You can't control everything in life....... your hair was put on your head to remind you of that :p

    They are in fact smaller than a cd case, when I heard of them on here I was looking for a glove thing in clear plastic, but it is in fact a smaller than cd size white cardboard cover.

    this is what they look like

    Hi everyone,

    Just wondered if anyone could give me the barcode of the toothbrush that works with the mag voucher?
    I popped into Boots this morning and I wasn't sure which one worked :confused:
    I'm hoping to get some to put into my Christmas shoe boxes:D

    Thanks x
