Spent £42 in store today and pushed my points up to £150. Then I decided to go on a spending spree
Now I have £64 left on it and will probably use that next week.
I have loads of chocolate for christmas now, a nice wine pack for DH and some brilliant toys, the girl at the checkout was about to ask me if I had enough points to pay for everything I had when she suddenly spotted the figure on the till. The look on her face was priceless. The manager even came over to help pack it all and I got treated like royalty, even told that the wrapping paper (10m for £1.47) was on BOGOF and to go back and get another one
They must think I spend a fortune in thereOrganised people are just too lazy to look for things

hi - my bargain of the day was on tony and guy hair stuff. There was a sign saying ALL shampoos/conditioners etc 2 for £7 - this sigh was in front of the 1 litre dispensers of shampoo and conditioner which are £12.99 each. Took it to the till and asked them to check and it worked - 2 1 litre bottles for £7.00 - absolute bargain!! PLUS the voucher gave me a coupon for 250 points on tony and guy or trevor sorbie hair stuff!!0

they just see me heading for boots and leave me saying"DON'T BE LONG WE WILL BE BACK IN 10 MINS"
60 mins later they are tryig to get me out,still hunting for offers, so i never get to be in long enough!!!!

Speaking of which, I found the Cuticura hand gel thingie with 200 points - thanks OP. Also, I was exchanging something (kids' clothes) and because it's 25% off Mini Mode, I got an extra few quid off, even though I'd paid full price originally (the girl explained it to me - I was standing there thinking their tills have gone bonkers - well, even more bonkers than usual). Therefore spent £1.03 and got 314 points (for Evening primrose and Cuticura) - very happy!

Thanks for this. I went back in today and picked up a shampoo and conditioner! Cannot believe that this is part of the offer. Also had a voucher for 150 points for proffesional hair product and 250 points for Tony and Guy so in total cost me £3 for two 1 litre bottles.
Also picked up two more Evian products thanks to voucher for buy one get one free from the machine. But as already posted if gives you the discount off as well as the free item so got two moisturisors for £2.99. :santa2: :rudolf: :snow_laug0 -
another good day today!! the tony and guy voucher for 250 points says excludes minatures - thought i'd try it anyway and it worked!! got 2 minatures for £2 and used 2 coupons - so 500 points!!! they do say 1 coupon per transaction but it WILL work if you can get the cashier to try for you!!!0

did they run the two coupons through one after the other or in seperate transactions?All that glisters is not gold, except moneysavingexpert.com0

both coupons one after the other so i also got the 2 for £2 offer0

Does anyone know in what section I will find the Cuticura hand gel? The staff are great in my local one but a bit clueless as to where products are kept. I found the rest of the Cuticura range in the bath section but it was all so expensive I decided not to botherOrganised people are just too lazy to look for things
