    It looks like a really nice top. It is added to the basket automatically, but there is no choice of sizes. So I guess it's pot luck really. At least as you have seen it, you will have an idea of the size. I will look out for it now when I am instore. Just had a thought, any male sa's wearing this will freak out if they see all these women (Of all ages) eyeying them up :rotfl: :rotfl: Then again it may just make their day. :T :T

    These are also available in store. The small St Mark's Square store in Lincoln had them, alongside a bag gwp with £30 of another fragrance - sorry can't remember which. Bag was nice, but I don't do fragrance.

    Didn't see them in the larger High Street store:confused:
    Slowly getting organised enough to actually write a signature...:rotfl:
    Boots points: £72.75 when I lost it lol Tesco points 2140
    Pigsback £4.65 MSF £3.41

    Nothing to be had today i went to 3 local boots to try and get nappies for the nappy cake i'm doing for my cousin but they were all sold out apart form a huggies walkers big pack was £8.98 on clearance at £2.25 but i handed over a £2 off huggies walkers coupon and got them for 25p:j

    in another store there was a nice pan10 gift box reduced to £2.48 i tried to use the £2.00 off and or 200pt but the computer said no for the 200pts i don't know why and the SA said NO for the £2 as not to be used with any other offer blah blah blah i liked it so i paid with points no gwp in store

    oooh, which store had the reduced Pantene please Kitiaracat?

    And sorry, I've gotta ask...... what's a nappy cake?

    Ooh think i found a glitch (ish) :j
    Baby expert item £1.99 (use 1/2 price pc voucher) so 99p
    100 points mag wyb expert
    100 points acm wyb any baby expert (i think)
    Worked for me today! SA said i'll be owing you in a minute!:p
    I also got (another) Borjoius Sharpener and free Baby Organics jar.
    Paid 99p got 200 points, similar to stay dry glitch but that only involved 1 voucher not 3!

    Which baby expert item is 1.99? Is that the cheapest?

    I agree: Is it just me or does Moneysaver12's treatment by Boots seem waaaaaaay over the top. I mean, if they wanted to ensure people use only vouchers issued to them they could easily print people's names on them (like they do with ACM vouchers), so the SA could check they match the advantage card. It annoys me when Boots issue all these vouchers to entice you in and you get treated like a shoplifter !
    I mean, all coupons issued say "only one coupon can be used per product", yet the tills allow 2 through, so whose fault is it? I would say it's not the customer's. How do they know that the customer wasn't given the voucher by a family member, which isn't against T&Cs.
    Surely if you are using vouchers, it is up to the shop assistant on the till to be trained sufficiently to offer advice on what is allowed or not. This treatment, over a few coupons, is so OTT, in my humble opinion. (Hope that rant made sense! :o).


    It made sense lol

    Why can't the barcode on the vouchers be made valid to the ac issued only.

    I bet CS monitor what staff buy and monitor Ebay for goods if proven are they going to take away staff cards?

    I had the same voucher beep for me but it didn't result in a phone call to CS I don't understand it:confused:

    I would say that the only way any of us could be guaranteed to avoid the same sort of situation is to only use the vouchers etc that we're actually 100% entitled to.



    Bottom line? The only way to be 100% safe is to toe the Boots line and keep on the right side of the T&C.
    :T :T :T :T So very well said, I take my hat off to you valk_scot. :T :T :T :T



    For that very reason you wont find me replying to Money saver 12 on this board. I pm'd her instead.Paranoid or cautious, I dont really know. I only know I wanted to support her but did not want to post anything that would only make her situation worse.

    Just had a brain wave (must be 16 kicking in!)

    17 clear mascara
    17 Nail polish
    17 gwp
    17 lip glaze

    Coupons:
    lip glaze
    50p off mascara
    100pts wyb any mascara

    WOW!! I actually thought of one!!!!!
    I'm off to calculate!

    The 17 GWP has ended :(.
    My local store was changing all of the displays over this morning. There were some 'bronzing' type summer things going there. But they were not out yet...I only saw the empty display box with stickers on!

    What do they do with the remaining GWP???? There were loads left there at the weekend.

    Can anyone confirm what you have to spend on pantene to get GWP. I found some gift sets reduced so grabbed some and spent £15 and grabbed gwp used £2 off voucher and 200 pts voucher both worked fine was pleased with this. Then had an awful thought the spend was less that £15 which would be about right for me:rotfl:
