Hotpot I'm using mine at the moment. The cartridge that came with printer didn't last long so have had to order some more. They came this morning and I'm on my second cartidge:eek:

When I was looking for replacement cartridges which Boots no longer stock. I went on Epson site and the printer on there is £69.99. So have Boots added £30 on top of original price to eliminate saving for PC voucher fooling us into thinking we had a bargain and actually we hadn't and they hadn't lost anything. Except they did loose in the long run:rotfl: :rotfl:

I know i think the one that came with it is for 20 photo's. But i did manage to get 2 x 150 packs for 750 points each, there was another 2 there i should have got them too :mad:

Well i just back from Bolton boots - only round the corner luckily and i wasnt allowed to get the bag full stop. Its the same hard faced bat that got me last time with the free RoC bags. I went in saw the bags so grabbed one and walked off - she rushes over to me and says - you gota buy sumfin to get that free. I just said oh i was wondering how much they were. Went back to roc stand but it was so expensive. Security gaurd was following me too. Then the bat came over to security guard and i heard her say - keep an eye on him with that bag - its free wen he buys something . I kicked off obviously - dumped my stuff n left. Went in today for a few bits saw the nc bags and thought wow my luck has changed next thing i got an "excuse me" turned round to be face to face with that nasty woman again. She said sorry you cant have one of those - i said why - she said bcos you have not bought anything in the range - stuffed a reduced balm under her nose and said - what the hell is that then - she said no cant have it unless you spend £10. Asked her why on earth has she got it in for me. She scarpered quick so i just dumped it onher trolley and left. None in my other boots. Sick of that nasty bat now

Sorry if ive got this wrong (and you did have something else nc or were going to spend £10 on med) but she was right as in you have to buy something else nc to get the bag free and med bag isnt going through with a spend under £10? (unless you use pc bogof coupon on preg med)
She does sound rather ott though:eek:

WGC still had a lot of NC bags but no reductions. I did buy a strawberry bubble bath from the NC for £1.99 and picked up 2 bags - one for me and one for my sister. Also bought some more reduced Baby Johnson's (for my sister as we have loads already). When I got to the till the bags did indeed scan for free. The SA was very puzzled. On the tills was the store manager as well who came over. She was lovely :A - explained to the SA that there was a 'glitch' with the bags and that they would go free with any spend. She then let me keep my two bags as she said I was a 'loyal shopper' (she always seems to serve me when I'm buying baby milk and nappies!). She then said that someone had been in earlier and tried to get 5 bags for free - they were letting people get one bag for any spend but no more.

No.... was just having daft moment, was wondering if there were 'men' in boots (ie suited ones) or you were inviting the local fire service around to check your fire alarms *cough* No idea what I thought, it is the effect the 'model me' has on my small brain.

Now really am going or no hope of you getting a NC collection bag and DS has been awake ten mins now(naughty mummy!).
