Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 22 - Post your finds here

I had this bright idea in the bath,...

no7 is on 3 for 2 and when u buy the foundation u get the concealer free, get a 3rd item and pay for 3 4 1.

IF I buy 2 foundations, and get 2 concealers, with the 342 offer, will it work out to be 4 for 1? (ie: 2 concealers free, leaving 2 to pay. 342 offer, take one foundation off, so leaving one foundation to pay)

i know that the concealer offer is only 1 per customer, but i was wondering if say,..i take it and pay at the pharmacy till, will it go thru the till fine or will the till beep and say 'one per customer'?

Hi

This is my first post (so please be gentle).

I was just about to ask a very similar question ! I'd like to get the No 7 Protect and Perfect serum and combine this with the 342 offer and also the buy foundation and get concealer free.

So do you think the following would work :

1 x No 7 Protect and Perfect Serum 16.00
2 x Instant radiance foundation £13.25
2 x Instant radiance concealer £12.00

Total : 66.50

so would it take off :

2 x Instant radiance concealer £12.00 = 24.00 (as free with foundation)
1 x Instant radiance foundation £13.25 (3rd item in 342 offer)

So revised total would be : 29.25

Then I hope I could use :

£3 off when you buy No 7 Protect and Perfect Serum
Double points
150 points on spend over £20 from ACM

So Total to Pay would be £26.25

Do you think this would work ?

Thanks (I hope this is clear)

Have the 250pts for stay dry finished?

If so anyone know the cheapest way of making 1000 worth of points. I was saving for a bottle of perfume and have enough but for 10pounds more I can get double the size bottle so I think it is worth me waiting for the extra 1000 worth of points.

Do you have a benefit counter. If so you could buy 4 sharpners one of them costs £2.50 I think and get 500 points for each pair. Don't know whether if 4 put in one transaction would give you 1000 if so use a points on total spend as well so say 100 extra points.

I may be incorrect, but I think it will take off £12 for the 342, not the £13.25, in addition to the 2 £12 for the concealer being free. Why not buy another no7 item for about £12 as this will be free due to you buying 6 items. Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong:o Thinking about it again, the order they are scanned will make the difference I think...

e.g.
1 x No 7 Protect and Perfect Serum 16.00
2 x Instant radiance foundation £13.25
2 x Instant radiance concealer £12.00
1 x Stay Perfect Foundation Compact £12.00

Total : 78.50

so would it take off :

2 x Instant radiance concealer £12.00 = 24.00 (as free with foundation)
2 x Instant radiance concealer £12.00 = 24.00 (3rd item in 342 offer as a minimum) - might work as you said with £13.25 foundation

So revised total would be : 30.50 before any coupons

Certainly worth buying another product, as the concealers form part of the 342 as well as the free item along with the foundation...hope this makes sense

I think I had possibly my best boots shop ever yesterday. I have never done this before so I hope it all makes sense.

1 X TS conditioner 4.49
1 x disposable camera 7.99
1 x max factor creme powder 4.95
then got other little bits from reduced sections.

I used:
1 x lip glaze voucher so making that free
1 x TS free conditioner WYB shampoo making the conditioner free, also TS is 2 for £7 so in total paid 1.98 for both.
1 x 100 point WYB expert product
1 x double points
1 x 100 points WYS £15
1 x free camera

Total before all vouchers was: £32.36
After all vouchers total came to....£14.11
Total savings: £18.25 and gained 320points too!!!

2nd shop:

1 x FCUK mini body scrub 2.25

mrsmoneyspender

today i got p&p serrum 16.75
radiance foundaton 13.25
concealer .00

link save -12.00
p & p coupon -3.00
total 15.00
+108points
double points 108
coupon from mailing on £15 spend 100 points
so it brings the three down to £11.84

to double this up and using 150 points from mailing it would have been £27.18 =( 3 for £13.59) as till only accepts one £3 off p&p voucher

The order scanned doesn't matter, the till rearranges everything in order of highest to lowest so every third item will be free on 3for2.

Hello All, Just like to say thanks to everyone for sharing all their wonderful buys!!..This is my first time here, and i'm already addicted!!

Was wondering if someone can tell me if the double points coupon work on any advantage card, as I got one from my sister that I would like to use. And also, does the coupon work on special offers, for example on lancome you get 1000 extra points on two products, does that mean i will get 2000 back?

Have you all saw the Fitflop on .com. I think it works prett much the same as mbt shoes.

Also 600pts on a £60 spend again.

I bought a pair of the red fitflops last year when they first came out and they were realy very hard to get a hold of.

I loved them and wore them all summer as they were very comfy and I did notice a difference in my legs as I felt they did tone them.

They work the same as the MBT trainers as I have the sandals in them, but I feel the fitflops went better when worn with skirts or dresses and less than a third of the price.

I will have a look as I wouldn't mind them in another colour.

yes it will work on your card

and no it's only basic points that are doubled
