    How much... I got one of these in a not so local store for £1.50 ( no bogoff either like some) and thought I'd done well ( to actually find one by me really!) but 37.5p each WOW :p

    Hiya AM :) I was a bit surprised too tbh, but after I posted about the other two I'd bought (2 for £1.49 which didn't make sense at the time) had them price checked at 75p each, even though the label clearly said £1.49. Then both went through as bogof! I'm amazed lol.

    My OH is bald as a coot, has been since his early twenties ( i think) so he just shaves it all off every so often, looks really hard but he's a big softie really :love: so don't think i'll be needing any Fish stuff IYSWIM ;) . he's currently comatose after too much beer after going to watch the match - they lost! :p

    Had an -almost- great boots shop today!

    Went to medowhall in sheffield and after reading the worrying posts about people using multiple vouchers etc I was a bit wary of SAs ringing CS, getting carted off to the police station, or worse, getting my AC taken away :eek:
    Anyway I needn't have worried because the SA barely looked at my big pile of vouchers, just scanned them obediently :) I did get on her good side as she didn't think reduced photo frames were on BOGOF and I educated her otherwise ;)

    Anyway, bought:

    No7 Dual Protection Tinted Moisturiser £9.50 (neither mine or my father's ACMs had the voucher for this unfortuantely :()
    No7 Stay Perfect Liquid Eyeliner in Sapphire
    (this is absolutely gorgeous, quite tricky to use at first but identical to more expensive MAC one) £8.50
    No7 Eyeshadow in Truffle £0
    on 342

    Used 500 points on No7
    Tried £5 off No7 but till beeped :( haven't others been getting it when total spend less than £20 after 342?

    Reduced photo frame £2.50
    Reduced photo frame £0 BOGOF

    Used 200 points ACM
    250 points PC

    Oral B precision clean 8 pack toothbrush heads WAS £25 NOW £12.49

    Used Save £3 on brush heads PC
    Might have waited for 300 points PC but that's only on 4 packs which are more expensive currently than 8 pack...

    Free meal deal

    Used 20p off some organic drink which was just lying around so got 20p off shopping

    Total = £30.16 (supposed to be £25 with No7 voucher :()

    Used 200 points WYS £25, Double points, 75 points WYS £10

    So points received:

    120 normal points
    120 double points
    500 No7
    250 PC frames
    200 ACM frames
    200 WYS £20
    75 WYS £10

    = 1465 :D

    They had an SEL for 75p mini photo albums but they were all gone :( Plus quite a lot of other reduced photo frames but only had one set of vouchers. Probably had stuff around the shop with reduced SELs but didn't have time to look everywhere!
    ;) One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you! ;)

  • :T Popped into my local "tiny" boots this afternoon as I needed a couple of bits in town.

    Managed to get:
    8 x huggies boys pull ups @ £1.25 a pack
    2 x huggies nappies size 5 (54) @ £2.25 a pack
    12 huggies wipes @ 63p a pack plus on BOGOF so effectively 31.5p a pack
    6 sanex roll on deodarant @ 40p each
    2 sanex gents deo spray @ 50p each
    1 ladies sanex deo spary @ 50p
    2 Mitcham deo block stick @ 83p each
    Ruby Wax makeup bag @ £1.75


    Lovely SA said lets split these up so you get plenty of vouchers! Ended up with 4 bless her.


    They had loads of different deo's on the normal shelf but with a small writing clearance sticker - included mum roll ons, boots own brand deo's in sprays & roll on's, mitcham, sanex, etc, etc. At least with the warmer weather coming DH & I have no excuse other than to smell nice & fresh! Boots own brand stuff started at 14p! So if you know anyone smelly send them down to boots!

    SA confirmed all big packs of nappies were being resized hence why clearing them.

    As its such a tiny store doesn't have an ACM but still a happy bunny today :T

    After oh called me his "Bag For Life" :eek: :rolleyes: :D I'm going to wait while he's asleep, (open-mouthed as usual :rolleyes: lol) and then proceed to remove his remaining teeth, one by one, very s l o w l y, and without anaesthetic! :D

    Then borrow your OH's running shoes ;)


    Remember to extract using your Bourjois tweezers. Then put said teeth in your new TB bag, preserved in P&P as a souvenir.
