    I didn't get one:confused: well done Becky:D

    This is what I bought today:

    TD hand/nail cream = FREE with 5.00 skincare voucher
    TD gradual tan body moisturiser = FREE with 5.00 skincare voucher
    PK of socks reduced from 6.00 to 1.50 = paid with points
    expert heat protection colour care shampoo = 1.32 + 100 points

    Total cash spent 1.32 + 100 points

    Then I went into superdrug and got 2 x natural Aloe vera and water lily body butter for 33p each with vouchers from sunday mirror:j while I was there I spotted 2 SA's from Boots:eek: they had a basket full of stuff:eek: :eek: I overheard SA 1 say to SA 2 "things are much cheaper in here aren't they?" SA 2 replied "yes, look at that, it's 6.99 here and in boots it's 14.00:rotfl:

    Well, I have been making the most of buying the "essentials" such as toothpaste (342 on colgate 99p each), cotton wool (2 for £2), boots pure soap (4 for 99p). And this stuff is not cheaper elsewhere!! and get a freebie worth £5!! :T Gotta love boots!

    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.

  • Hello! :hello: Well done on the picture frames! I got a few last week that were reduced & BOGOF. It worked out that Boots paid me to take them away as I had PC vouchers for 250 points on frames.:T

    Wow excellent stuff - my babies are all grown up now, so I don't benefit from the PC vouchers...unfortunately 'cos they seem great. i've joined the health club and recently got a mailing, but I wasn't too impressed - grateful of course, but can't work out additional points with current offers!:o

    This is a great store :beer: went for the first time last week, SA's couldn't have been more friendly :A

    Plus i just LOVE any Boots on a retail park. Directly there, free parking...ahhh :)

    x

    I know, I emailed CS about them. They are the sort of ones that say, "these are on 3 for 2, do you want one free, wait there, I'll fetch you another one" :j :j :j
