    My mum needed to get some new curtains for her bedroom so I offered to take her shopping - knowing that I could have a peek in boots while we were out!

    Todays shopping consisted of:

    TS Long Hair Shampoo
    TS Long Hair conditioner - buy 2 for £7
    Picturemate cartridge & 135 photo paper - reduced to £12.49 from £29.99
    2 x Lexmark High Quality Photo paper - reduced to £1.75 from £6.99
    1 Berry Toiletry Holdall (Roll type) - reduced to £3 from £12
    2 x small photo albums BOGOF but also reduced to £1.49 (coupon holders!)
    Ruby Wax large holdall - £5 not sure original price but think it was £20
    Small box mini Lindt easter bunnies - 28p (to keep 19mth old happy while I could look around)
    Sanctuary Nail Buffer - 38p
    Sanctuary Face Buffer - 36p
    Sally Hansen Lip Gloss - £1.74 reduced from £6.99
    No 7 Exotic Eye Shadow - £2.75 (not as good as 50p but still a bargain)
    Expert Dry Mouth Spray £2.49
    Expert Baby Wash £1.99
    Sunglasses £24.00

    Used following vouchers:

    ACM extra 300 points WYS £35.00
    ACM 200 points on photo albums
    ACM 150 points on dry mouth spray
    Triple points on baby wash
    Half price sunglasses voucher
    2 x expert 100 extra points from mag
    PC free TS conditioner
    ACM 100 points on TS
    PC half price baby expert

    Thank you Mr Boots you paid me 51 points to take away your photo albums and 1 point to take away baby wash. Dry mouth spray was effectively free as I gained 250 points for an item that cost £2.49!

    Also bit of a glitch on shampoo/conditioner. On offer 2 4 £7. Receipt shows minus £4.49 from PC voucher and a further £1.98 for offer so actually paid 53p.


    SA was marking lots of stuff up for clearance shelves. She said she had loads to put out - odds and ends - no SHOOZ bags though which is what I really wanted. Told me to go back later in day but TBH I spent too much so didn't bother. Don't get paid till next week :T
    Not sure where you are from but cheshire oaks had about 4 shooz bags on normal shelf for £3 each yesterday.
    This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.

    I didn't mention buying make up per se, simply a returnable item.

    Sorry thought the till spit had to be used on colour cosmetics

    Dereham had some RW bags with the handles for £3 at the weekend

    I asked the girl on the counter past the No 7 stuff if they had the Expert tins and she looked down her snooty nose at me and snapped "No!" :o

    Still have not seen the tweezers!

    There were some reduced R & M brushes today but dare not try them as I am sure someone posted that they did not work.

    I tried on the RM £2.88 angular cheek brush but the puter said no :(

    Have 7 of the blinking spits now - not managed to use 1 :rotfl:

    They are not the friendliest SA in there unfortunately. Had a survey till spit last time I shopped there - did mention this and also the fact that you always have to queue for ages whenever you go in there!

    Might pop over on Saturday afternoon - did they have the shoe bags?

    I have around 4 of the till spits and keep trying to get tweezers or sharpener -- every time I pop in they have either all gone or just one left .Still have not seen the tweezers! There were some reduced R & M brushes today but dare not try them as I am sure someone posted that they did not work.
    Saw some new Ted Baker bags but they are not on .com yet.Very nice but a bit pricey!

    I bet the staff have nabbed them all - when I went to Peterborough a couple of weeks ago with work I got 2 pairs of tweezers - they had loads then - SA said they wouldn't work - I asked her to try for me knowing they did and she was really surprised. She asked if they had anymore as she had loads of vouchers she needed to use. She mentioned it to next SA to her so I guess they hadn't seen it work before.

    If I see any on my travels I will get you some as I have bout 12 vouchers now. I have to go into Norwich on Monday so will look then for you.

    No hon just the ones with 3 compartments inside and they were dusty on the bottom, nice though :)

    Yes just that 1 till - there was a right bloomin queue by the time I'd finished :o

    I got a survey on each of 2 transactions - do you get anything for doing them?
