it's going to be interesting to watch... let put it in our diary ladies...

I already had that circled in the TV guide, but reading the article was quite interesting; thanks! Fingers crossed they find one of the brands I own actually works!

To those wondering, my local was offering the 1000 points PLUS GWP when buying two EA products.

I messed up a bit....bought two lovely photo frames marked at £10, said £2 on the shelf and came up as £11 . Absolutely lovely SA said she'd put them through at £2 for me so got them and med soap combo....and forgot that frames are BOGOF too so total came to £4 so no till spit - booohooo. Still - got 200 points extra cos of the ACM voucher.

Also "spent" a till spit on Olay hand cream...till beeped but lovely SA overode it and put it through for me :j :j

Told her about Express deal and made a mental note of her face & name!!! Will go back tomorrow with Mum's card to see if I can get more frames.

Just a quick post. Managed to get the little black photo albums at £1.25 today with 200 pts back from ACM and BOGOF. They're actually quite nice. Had to get points put on manually though.

Did this twice so had 400pts for £2.50.
There were quite a few left as well as other little heart photo paper weight frames at £1.

Forgot to look for hydro shave gel.

What a gorgeous day!

yes, there is one for £5.50 face one and £4.99 body.... none in my store unfortunately at the moment...

TD range online dont have all the products you can get in store...

all I could find today, was wipes, wipes and more wipes:rotfl: I like the wipes though, they smell lovely:D so I redeemed another 4 tillspits on wipes! I was hoping to find at least 1 TD hand/nail cream, but they are nowhere to be seen. I have started doing a lot of gardening now the weather has improved and the hand/nail cream would come in handy (pardon the pun:rotfl: ) I managed to get hold of quite a few of the 4.99 gradual tan body moisturiser and hand/nail cream when the tillspits first came out, so I cannot complain (thanks boots:T ), but now that the stores have signs up telling peeps what they can use the voucher on, the shelves are looking very
empty!

That must be so frustrating Sally, especially now that they have included the whole range. Don't the sa's ever try to override it for you??

I have no problem with it (Just a problem finding it :rolleyes: )I love the hand cream, and the smell is georgous. But I am fed up with the empty shelves. I was thinking of camping out overnight to see if that made any difference.:rotfl: :rotfl: I went lt Boots ealy last sunday, and the shelf was almost bare, either there are loads of lurkers where I live or they are just not re-stocking the shelves.

I have 9 to use up. I keep finding them everywhere I go too. Found 2 in a basket I picked up the other day, then the assistant at the next till gave me one that a man had just refused, and you cant say no can you?:p

I only managed to cash in 2 that day but came home with the 3 freebies, and the 3 that I had from purchases. Oh but don't we just love the Boots merry go round:p

I didn't know the whole range (total effects) was included I haven't seen any signs up, only signs for TD. The SA's always say the hand cream is not included. Oh well, you win some you lose some!

I've found a few tillspits too:D everytime I get down to my last 2 or 3 I found a few more. Not complaining though;)
