Hi Folks -
Although this is the first time I have posted on this thread, I read it daily so kinda feel like I know you.
I only have a small boots within 30 mins drive next biggest stores are over an hour away so I dont tend go bootsing often and am always admiring the shopping lists on here.
I do use boots.com and usually manage to get a code for some extra points but tend to miss out on any glitches as they have been snapped up before I get there.
However today I managed to get one!!!
I had to let you know of my super shop today online thanks to thegreenroom's post pointing out the glitch on Diorlyte
Diorlyte Sachets 12 x 2.58 = 30.96
Boots Baby Wipes 10 x 0.99 = 9.90
Total Spend 40.86 with free postage
Points Earned
6 x 500pts (500pts when you buy 2 Cosmetics glitch)
3 x 200pts (200pts when you buy £10 HealthCare)
1 x 500pts (500pts code AAAE22 - 500 points) - thanks to sarah skint
TOTAL POINTS - 4250
I actually should have had another 200pts for £10 spend on baby but stupidly only ordered 10 wipes instead of the 11 I needed to qualify - I was in such a buzz because I didnt think it would go through and didnt notice I had missed the offer. Still I think I did alright and now have a lifetime supply of Diorlyte if anyone needs any give me a shout LOL!0 -

There is also a lovely perspex lid that went over them all, but forgot to photograph it with that in place.:o
Included:-
Her purse perfume £39.00
Her body lotion £25.00
Her Shower gel £22.00
Her hair mist £22.00
Total £108.00
There were already a 40ml tube of shower scrub and 2 x Body defining lotions included as freebies. I already have the EDP so I did not want thatBut the Lovely SA added:-
2 x more body defining lotions
+
2 more shower scrubs.So all in all I was well pleased as I paid for it with points.:j :j
I had loads and I had earned £29.82 in just one day yesterday.Oh nearly forgot lovely SA is going to give me an Indian head massage next time I am in. :rotfl: :rotfl: I know, - I need it, and maybe a labotomy??
That's so pretty pollsdolls, I don't think I've ever seen those
Seen and had bought for me something similar by Pecksniffs, but not those. (Might be that I haven't been looking though). I'd buy one with points if I thought I'd use it and not just gaze at it lol, and I can't even admire it on a dressing table - no dressing table! But it's really tempting to use a few points and buy it as a gift.
Really pretty it is

I think it was all the talk of fanny craddock, slippery oil accidents and that with my excitement of being able to paste pictures without a hitch! I'm surprised that was my only slip up! :rotfl:geordie_lass wrote: »:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

(it could be a new term to replace the term i use to describe someone who annoys me slighty - think about it!)
Ahem
