    Just wondering about the 200 apology pts going thro twice - wondering if you're getting 200pts for each club - ie. 200 for hc and 200 for pc?

    Not that I'd know of course, having not had the letter or points at all.....:cool:

    Taffy I'm so pleased for you :D , let us know how you get on. I became the proud owner of one yesterday;) for free :j ( well had to buy the voucher off ebay). OH was pleased but he just didn't share my enthusiasm:mad: , i kept saying but it was free :confused: . Forgot to look for the paper i was so focused on gettin the blasted printer. I haven't dared open it yet, it's so pristine and i can print photos on my computer (if i ever figure it out).
    Went for a mystery shop lunch today in a town i don't normally frequent and found myself thinking, hhmmmmm, i wonder if ther is a Boots nearby. Sure enough, there was but it was tiny. No clearance or SEL bargains, had some nappies price checked - full price still :mad: . Tried the olay hc, free wipes & 500 points but SA said no to skincare voucher, she tried it after I insisted but till bleeped, oh well can't win 'em all. Got my vouchers for another day, another Boots.:D :cool: :p
    :kisses2:
    Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That’s why we call it the present.

    Had a pretty good shop today.
    2 X yellow photo albums 75p + 200 pts ACM. Only the yellow albums in Gloucester are 75p & BOGOF. Tried pink on Wed & refused but all others are classed as BRAG books & not albums so be savvy on that.

    TD kit £7.50
    meal deal £2.99

    Paid £5.00 spit & £5.48 cash recieved another spit

    TD facial scrub
    Paid with £5.00 spit

    Olay hand cream FREE with PC voucher
    Olay wipes FREE with PC voucher for buying above item

    ROC wipes £5.99
    Paid £5 ROC voucher from freebie & 99p & recieved another spit

    And I got a survey, great male SA so big thumbs up from me. Havent filled in the last one yet either!!!

    I am using the spits as I get them if possible to avoid wasting them like last time ( 9 wasted as nothing available to redeem against )

    No it can't be that at least not for me anyway. I am only in the Health club. at my age I dont think they would believe me if I applied to the PC. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I am more than happy with my regular 10% off all Boots brands. It certainly adds up fast. On a lot of the products I get it off the full price even when the item is reduced, (not always, it depends on the type of reduction)

    Thanks for the heads up about the paper pollsdoll and how the heck are you?.
    Taffy

    I am fine thanks Taffyscot. Many thanks for asking. I am hoping to travel up North in the next few weeks to visit one of my DS's who lives in Glasgow. So will be seeking advice here. I already know BG and Sauchihall street quite well, but need to find out where the clearance sections are hidden. :cool:
    Nice find again. Let us know when you get it.:T :T

    Super work Taffyscot! I'm so pleased that you have managed to find one. I love freebies so I was thrilled to discover that we could get this for nothing!Especially freebies that should cost £100! :T I managed to get two...one of which will make someone a very nice Christmas present!
    Our 1st baby is due 29th December 2007! :rudolf:
    I'm hopeful that this get's me out of cooking Christmas dinner!

    Baby Ruby arrived after 55 hours of labour & an emergency c section on Christmas Day at 14.41 weighing 6lb 6oz...And yes I did get out of cooking Christmas dinner!!:rotfl:

    There is an Olay Hand Cream for £4.97 that works with the PC vouchers, you get it for free plus points as well. Obviously depends if the SA is willing to scan more than one voucher. Put some more stuff in your basket to cover up purchases perhaps? It has worked for me, did it last w/e.

    Just back from Boots, Oracle, Reading:

    - there was no ACM WYS voucher in the ACM today, just a coupon for 10 points when you spend £15, which is the offer currently running in store. Boots is getting smart. No double-dipping. So ladies, don't plan on getting these during the weekend.

    - got 3 colgate whitnening but the £1 off from the healthclub did not come off :-( I have seen others use it for the cheaper toothpaste, so was bit upset about this. but I got a till spit with the rest of the stuff, anyway.

    - a lady next to me got a Ted Baker wash bag (small, blue with bath lotion and bath wash) for £5. the SA warned her it was on BOGOF. I went to check it out and the washbag was marked £10, so scanning for £5, in case anyone is interested. I can't find the photo online, sorry. Not sure if the rest of the range is on offer.

    - Yes, I paid with a pigsback voucher and got the change in a gift card. Thanks for letting me know in advance.

    - The TD hand creams were scarce. So if you're planning on getting a lot of those, you might want to hurry. Just a warning to the newbies, often the cheaper stuff goes out of stock nearer the end of the offer.

    This is specifically for those in Reading who may want to visit this boots, since these may be store-specific offers:

    - There were support tights reduced from £3.50 and £4.50 down to 88p and £1.30. I tried using the ACM coupon for 342 support tights, but the till would not let me. Good bargain though. I just hope they work.

    - Bits and bobs from N7 cosmetics highly reduced.
    - There was night and day cold and flu tablet reduced, nicorette, and other stuff there
    (the reduction stand is close to the staircase)

    - There were a few Lola rose MF boxes next to the Olay stand. The SA told me they are giving them out with Olay purchases. So got a few olay daily regenerating cream wash, which I adore!! I know they scan for free, but this is a much more worry-free way to get them!! http://www.boots.com/shop/product_details.jsp?productid=1068287&classificationid=1018012
