    Do you mean nettienoo ;) Are you local to us? Is it you that pinches all the bargains then...only joking:p Please orangemonkey tell me more..

    Whoops, Sorry nettieNOO! :silenced:

    Nope, I'm stuck in London. It's so hard to find stock for the glitches or good clearance stuff. Been to queensway boots 5 times this week and the ac machine is still down, clearance shelf still as empty. If only they update it as often as you guys up north. Would love to join in all the bootsing fun. I find it lovely how there's a live update of the boots in the region for each other almost everyday. And you even recognise each other's family! wow :)

    oooooohhhhhhh you guys.................
    what has happened to this lovely thread, i enjoy popping on here 3-4 times a day if i can to keep up with you all, but it really upsets me all the bickering and pm this pm that, we all use boots for points and boots uses us for money, but thats why we are here - because it 9/10 works in our favour.

    I hope this thread doesn't become locked and then restarted again, Can everyone start today a fresh, please don't call me an original an oldie, a fogey, a moaner - I am neither I am a bootser ;)

    and proud of it. I couldn't have achieved my sig target without everyones help.

    Can I add my 2p's worth to the general discussion? Yes, chat is nice but it does get boring to have to wade through pages of it that have absolutely nothing to do with anyone but the small handfull of posters involved and their private lives, their budgie's ingrowing toenail and whether they slept last night. Every dayzzzzzzzzzzzzz...................zzzzz....zzzzz.....

    How about if everyone resolved to only chat here about things that at least have a tenuous relationship to Boots and leave the rest for pms, MSM and whatever? I mean, it is supposed to be a thread about Bootsing, no? I was quite active here for a while then sort of got discouraged from posting...I would comment on something I'd found or the sucess/non-sucess of a glitch and folk would just keep right on talking about the budgie. So after a while I stopped posting. I still read the thread, but now it's a fast scan for the information to be gleaned rather than participate. And I bet I'm not the only person to be discouraged and that's a shame. The more eyes, ears and brains we have operating out there round the various Boots then the more glitches and bargains we'll find, surely? By turning the thread into a cliquey chat thread (sorry, but that's what it is at the moment) the Bootsing content has gone right down the pan. Cosy it may be, fun (for the participents) it may be, amusing it may be to read but ultimately this is killing the Bootsing content, gals.

    I can see in post #418 that it's saying that the image has been moved etc, but in post #409, the image is showing - it's three packs of scrapbook pages.

    *Hmm, just looked again and the image is now showing in post #418. :confused:

    Passion8 - as one of the old elite (ta for the compliment) I check the Boots thread front page several times a week, or get one of the servants to. Most of the "elite" still do.

    Some of us are simply not that interested in Boots any more.

    The chat I'm certainly not into (mainly cos I don't know the people chatting) and I think highlighting genuine glitches and latest finds in a different stand out colour is a fantastic idea.

    Sadly, I'd be amazed if it was universally adopted to make it worthwhile enough.
    “ Yes, but are you the “Bootsing People's Front” or the “People's Front of Bootsing”? ” (copyright, Monty Python’s Life of Brian, 1979).

    Now now boys and girls. I thought the point of this thread was to share bargains with other people who like to shop at Boots. Let’s unite, be nice and fight for better bargains !icon7.gificon14.gif

    I got some of those photo-paperweights in the shape of a heart yesterday, and they are fab ! BOGOF at £1 – so 50p each (although they don’t work with the pts off voucher) icon8.gif. The plastic cover is magnetic and just flips off so it’s easy to change the photos – makes a great pressie for grannies/dad’s/mam's desks.
