That's good advice to any new Bootser about collecting the free store H&B magazines (free with Advantage card, anyway). I get one almost every time I go to Boots, even if I don't think there's anything I want in there. And I save all the coupons in the back until they expire, even if they don't seem interesting at the time. That's because some glitch/combination could come up that makes an uninteresting coupon become very sought-after, like in the last mag when the coupon for a half-price toothbrush actually let you get paid 1p to take the toothbrush out of the store after the store put them on 1/2 off sale! Also, some of the extra points coupons could be in demand unexpectedly if you find an item on clearance for say 50p, and you've got a coupon for 100 points or so!

I should hasten to say I don't feel like I'm depriving anyone else of a mag by getting so many, as one of my local Boots always has tons of mags right up until the day they put out a new issue.

There's been loads of the current H&B magazine up here skibster, and same for the previous one. The highlighter one was a bit different, and I ended up buying a magazine

But I miss the last one with it's Expert, S&G, 17 lip glaze, (and Wisdom toothbrushes etc, as you mentioned) because they all seemed to 'make money' in some way or other (when the wizards got to work that is )

And after having to buy one (and sending a few vouchers out) I'd never feel guilty about how many magazines I took either!

The stupid thing is, if I saw TD wipes on the stands tomorrow (I haven't found any so far this time round) I would grab a pack (or several) then go round the store looking for things to buy just to get the required number of tillspits to get them "free". I don't really need them, goodness knows I have enough TD cleanser, toner and facewash to groom a small horse, but the point is, they're free......aren't they? :rotfl: Well, that's my excuse and I'm stickin' to it

If the next one is for money off sunglasses though I think I'm in for a reprieve for a few weeks. I mean, I only need one pair, well maybe a spare pair too, just in case I leave them on the bus, oh, and one each for the kids, gotta protect those eyes.....and if I see some cute pink ones at a good price then they would look great in hampers alongside those pink tweezers and sharpeners.... Then there's bound to be an elusive bargain pair that a few Bootsers have got that I'll hunt down and buy, just for the kudos....... :rotfl:

When I spotted the TD wipes yesterday, they'd been such a rarity that I nearly bought some :rotfl:

And I can't see myself spending too much on sunglasses either geordie_lass Woo hoo, bank manager will love me

Does anyone know if the the sun glasses till spit is only valid on certain makes of glasses. I need some new glasses and am waiting for the new till spit but if it only the expensive ones I'll not bother buying stuff just to get a till spit and buy cheaper ones instead iyswim:D

:mad: :mad: :mad: Hi

i recently had a voucher for half price sunglasses and it was off any if that helps.

After i have read on here previously and been shy i often stand glazed eyed in boots looking for this magazine you all talk about and never seem to see one...i do use the ATM but see things i would not buy and then i think hmmmmmmmmmmmm they all seem to know all these ways of making them work lol...should write it all down in a book for my notes when inseide store lol.

My last boots sunglasses were STONE brown ones if anyones interested they should be £30 i had them two years and they are brilliant, they have little diamonte gems and have been told they look like designer ones, i actually bought another pair with my half price voucher to hide away for future.

My boots is not open today i was ithcing to go with my £5 voucher, i was sure i had been told in the past you had to spend £5 to get £5 off:mad:

I may go in early tomorrow and see what to get with it.:T

thankyou

I'm eagerly awaiting the half-price sunglasses voucher. I had a coupon and took my OH into Boots to choose a pair for him. We were in the queue when I realised it was out of date. Fortunately I noticed so he was ordered to return them to the shelf. I still owe him some glasses though!!

Was amazed to see loads of time delay wipes and hand creams in the boots in bolton (city centre). Shame i couldnt find the clearance section, was after some hair accessories.

You know you have to spend £20 on No7 to get the GWP. If you use the £5 off £20 coupon, does it still count as ''£20'' so you can still get the gwp?
