Had a great shop today, the first time in Boots for almost 2 weeks. I missed out on the free wisdom toobrush, but managed to ge loads of reduced ones for 50p each in a small branch. The smile ones were BOGOF which I had not realised neither.

I moved onto a larger branch armed with my list, but did not bother with most of it. I bought

Go Naked Travel goody bag reduced to £5

2 x pink/white/blue stripey cases with make up brushes and mirror etc £1.50 each (great for hampers)

1 x Jungle formula roll on insect repellennt reduced to £2.49

1 x Valeline intensive care stick deodorant reduced to 95p

1 x pair blue aristoc angora socks reduced to £2.50 from £10 (Georgous)

1 x Boots lip care & gloss reduced to £1.14

1 x Boots essentials hairspray reduced to 40p

Free chicken soft toy from the SA

Expert dry mouth spray (Half price with AC voucher) £2.24

expert dental mirror £1.34

Could not find the free expert tin anywhere.:cool: (Can anyone please tell me which section it is in)

Umberto Giannini (White one) shampoo & conditioner 2 for £1.50 with haircare tilsplit and ACM voucher.:j :j Could only get 3 x ACM vouchers and had 4 tillsplits so used the last one for a JF serum £1.95. So I have 6 shampoos/conditioners for £4.50. Even the assistant was gobsmacked and said she was going to do the same transaction later.

Also found the big ted baker bag for £4.50 (The 3 section one) More pleased with this than anything. I have been after it from when I first saw it on display.

Returned a perfume, and exchanged it for a 50ml Gucci by Gucci, and got the 1500 pts.
So ended up with 2068 extra pts today. :T :T

All in all a great day as today we paid off our mortgage. All down to M.S.E, as it was this site that first gave us the idea and the incentive. So thanks to everyone for all the tips that helped us achieve our goal, to be mortgage free. It is a great feeling. :T :T :T

well done you think of all that bootsing cash you'll have now the mortgage is paid pff or better still use some of the money for a holiday abnd the rest for boots to get ready for it!!! Maybe we'll find oyu a sun cream glitch!!! Hehhe!!!

Congrats!!!

Hi Deborah

I bought 8 packs of Huggies wipes last week using a 500 points on £10 spend(kind swop from fellow MSE) on bogof. My daughter uses a pack evey couple of weeks so wont last too long!!! I think they might dry out a bit if you kept them for a long time!

My ACM vouchers are not very good.

50p on 17 lip gloss
50 points on natural col juicy lips
250 points on total expert body range
250 points on 3 min hair mask#
£1 off botanics bathing range
50 points on gor feet range

My daughter got the same except

100 points on nat col juicy lips
bogof on fcuk sport
bogof on hackett london for men.


What did you get?


No mailing yet for either of us.


Decided today to take a BOOTS purse in my bag with only Boots stuff and card in it, as all the Boots things were taking over my purse and I keep losing my card in amongst the vouchers!!1LOL.

Told the SA about it and she remembered me not being able to find my card the other day, she even remembered my name!!!!

I am just back from a terrible time in my local Boots. I tried to get the foundation on 342 with the free concealers. At the normal till the SA said it wouldnt go through, so she called the No. 7 SA. She told me she would try another way, and I paid 2650 points. Left the shop, walked around for about 15 mins, then remembered I hadnt got the coupons from the ACM. The sa saw me, called me back to the No. 7 counter, said would I speak to the manager. I said ofcourse. The manager said it clearly says on the sign only 1 per person, and took back my goodies. I felt as if they treated me like a shoplifter, and was upset by the whole thing. I feel like I dont want to ever go into that store again. I came back and ordered it online, no problems, didnt order the concealers, 3 just showed up free. So had to pay £26.50 plus £2.95 delivery, where as I wanted to pay with my points.

rosy, I'm sitting here and I can feel my blood pressure rising. How dare they do that to you? :mad: I'd implore you, and strongly, to contact CS asap. No-one should be made to do what you did, and subsequently be left feeling as you did.

I'm livid just thinking about it!

It's no different, in my eyes, than Boots overcharging a member of the public, and the member of public returning to the store and helping themselves to a refund from the till.

I'd have been straight round to C.A.B. or contacted the local paper, Watchdog, or whoever it is that deals with these things.

Please, please, please mail CS and complain about the atrocious behaviour they subjected you to. It could happen again to another unsuspecting shopper.

I'm totally gobsmacked!!! Take care and good luck x

No idea sorry, I get millions of emails but nothing via the post - have had my card years but only really used it since Xmas. DH had a few vouchers when I signed him up for an advanatge card recently but nothing since.

I don't get any vouchers with mailings either - except for PC:(

I only did a small shop today. I left half of my vouchers at home (a good excuse to go back tomorrow;) )

I bought:

17 eye liner soft brown 58p x 2
17 eye liner soft black 58p
lip glaze free with mag voucher
17 GWP - till beeped, but manager :eek: said I could have it 'cos i'd spent required amount:D
UG shampoo
UG conditioner 6.00 used 1/2price AC voucher and 2.00 haircare voucher

Total to pay 3.24 saved 12.27:j (just noticed 'total saving today' is back on boots' reciepts )

pollsdolls, congratulations for paying off your mortgage:beer: it will be quite a few years before mine is paid off - unless I win the lotto. Hmm, will have to start playing it to win it:D

RE: my eye problem. I've an appointment on the 24th April. It seems like a long time to wait though. Lets hope they can patch me up!

EDIT: 17 eye liners were not on shelf. I had to rumage in draw under display to find them.
