Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 26 - Post your finds here

sally06

DD and I went boosting again yesterday. she loves all the goodies she's been getting, but cannot understand why I get so excited when I find a bargain/glitch. When I try to explain how a glitch works, she says "oh mum, I'm not interested in your boots addiction:rotfl: ...I'll convert her one day;)

I tried the T&G glitch again. The till is still saying no to my ACM vouchers so I used an express voucher and paid 3.51 (a big thanks to lililou for the voucher:A ) I got helena styling spray and dry shampoo. I know I could've paid less if I'd bought the more expensive items, but I've never used the dry shampoo before and wanted to give it a try:D

I tracked down some reduced sanctuary products at last. I got:

lomi body butter 1.87 x 2 used 3.00 S voucher and paid 74p:T

lomi relaxing bath 2.49 free with S 3.00 voucher:T

hand sugar scrub (green) 3.48 used 3.00 S voucher paid 48p:T till beeped with this one. Nice SA had to override till.

I'm off to catch up on all the posts I've missed. Gosh, you've all been busy. It will take me all night to read them all:D

I'm going to take some pics of my stash and get DH to upload them when he has the time (don't know how to do it:o maybe pollsdolls can offer me some advice...please??) I'm loving all your pics, by the way:D

So here are the pics of some of my stash. I haven't included my bottles and bottles of Palmolive Cashmere shower gel or all of the essentials handwashes that I bought from .com to get the palmolive free and I this isn't including any of the stuff from the 75% sale as all of that's in the loft.

I've given quite a bit of stuff away (like highlighters, JF mini serums and GWPs) and I also found some more Expert stuff and the expert tin GWP after I'd taken the pic.

A lot of this stuff is for forthcoming birthdays and xmas too.

wow this is one impressive stash! look at all those GWP!!! Well done you :T

Quote from CPG first post concerning Model.Me:

Using ACM voucher and Express voucher
helena Super hydrating Shampoo & Helena Radiant styling spray. Thanks RubyLou88
*To get the acm voucher to work without beeping you must choose a shampoo or conditioner from the range.*

--> Does this mean we get both free?

As for the Umberto Giannini offer on today's express it is valid until the 14-June, so hopefully we will have a new offer (241 perhaps ) by then!!
I know it might be late, but if you buy the Express at debenhams it is only 0.35£.

At least here in Reading they have run out of the mediterranean GWP some days ago and still have not received any stock, so I was planning on doing an online purchase.But I can't order the mediterranean GWP online... I wanted to order 2, thus making 1 free, since the butter butters are much better value in the GWP. Anyone know a way around this? Also the wonderbalm online is 4.50 and I got one in store for 2.99. Not happy :-(

Hi pcg2001:D some peeps have got both free. I haven't been so lucky. I've tried every combination possible with T&G. The tills do not like me and my ACM vouchers:(

I bought the express today, but haven't even looked at it yet:eek: must go and find that voucher.

Went to Nottingham with my sister today. Hit Primark etc and wanted to do some Bootsing as vouchers burning a hole in my wallet. Somehow missed the Vic centre Boots so went in to Broadmarsh on way to train . What a shock -was only a small one ! Decided not to bother as no clearance and very squashed up shop.
Also .............you know what ....... I think for me Bootsing is a bit of a solitary pleasure. Trying to explain to the unconverted like my sister just does not work -- I end up sounding a bit pathetic with my pursuit of Boots bargains when I can well afford to buy them full price ! Think I will hoard my vouchers until next week after a bad day at work when I can browse to my hearts content working out the best deals!

Is anyone else a solitary Bootster?

Went to get this today. Bought the city block and a bar of facial soap but didn't pay with my points like I was meant to! I couldn't resist the 500 bonus pts and 10 pts for £15 spend so I paid £24.50, got GWP and 745 pts!

The pic above doesn't do the GWP justice, trust me it's lovely and bigger! Not sure if I did the right thing by not paying with my pts but it was a better saving in the end wasn't it???

Went in a few boots today and noticed that the above GWP isn't in all the stores. Smaller stores with clinique counters had a plastic see-through "travel bag" with a sample sized mascara, make up remover and turnaround concentrate visible skin renewer (though I went to Brent Cross too and they had the smaller GWP too ).

Anyway, in Brent cross I picked up
Elle Macpherson Pedicure in a jar (with cotton socks!) - £4.98
E M Get glam sparkling powder (shimmery puff in a round box) - £0 BOGOF!
E M skin smooth massager - £2.98
E M skin smooth body wash - £0 BOGOF

Total £7.96 - paid with points
Also used my last Model Me voucher and got Erin conditioner and Helena vitamin spray. Paid £3.01 and now have a total of 6156 pts!

I'm really tempted to go back another clinique GWP Need to think of something I "need' first....

Oh you lucky thing i hunted high and low for those p&p sets but none came down this way :mad:

Wow! What more can I say?!!;) 4 of the lovely, lovely P&P round mother's day sets.... you lucky thing - or your lucky recipients! 8 pink No7 GWP?!! Wow - again! And are those the Steamy Showers sets lurking towards the back?

Thanks for the photo, great to see your goodies - have you got them all catalogued with what's for whom, or is it just a lovely surprise when you take them out to "have a play" and remind yourself what you've got?

Go on, treat yourself - open something and USE it - you're worth it!

The P&P sets 2 are for gifts, 1 I bought for myself and 1 was bought by DH on behalf of the kid's as my Mother's day pressie. So 4 of the GWP's are from that. The other 4 where from the well loved highlighter glitch when we were using the £5 off No7 pink till spit ( well it was actually a voucher but it worked the same as a till spit).

The S&G sets are for me but weren't as cheap as some of the one's you lovely ladies found. These were half price so £7.50.

I'm planning on using some of the stuff to make baskets at xmas, the No7 suncare stuff will be great for my sister in law who's going to New Zealand in January.

I have actually used quite a lot of stuff to be honest, this is the stuff that's left unopened at the minute. Have been through a few S&G bits from when you got 400 points on the spa range, lots of make up wipes, No7 face wash, expert bits etc. I haven't opened the P&P sets yet (the 2 that are mine anyway) because I'm still on P&P that I bought before that, lol.

Anyone else care to share pics of their stash? I have a feeling that mine may be small compared to some of you guys, especially those with 'boots' rooms (or boots 'boots' rooms hey Passion, lol).

No I keep trying to explain bootsing to people but they don't seem to get it:rotfl: As you said it does all sound a bit pathetic being on the search for bargains:D I can't convince my mum at all:D
although I think OH has been converted especially as most of the points have been put on his card and he decided to spend them today on some hair clippers:rotfl:

Sorry to be a pain, not sure if I'm missing something, does anyone know if there are any current offers of facial wash. Only thing I can think of is to get 2 clinique at £13 each, so £26 and the GWP(paid with by points of course!), but was really after a cheapy offer as go through tons of the stuff!

broclo, here's a link to face washes on .com, there are a few offers there but I guess it depends which ones suit your skin.

wow I wish i could organise mine like that:D at the moment it is all under the bed - I must sort it out and look at what I have actually got. I have got 3 hampers to make for July/August/September so that will free up some space - to make room for more goodies:rotfl:
