    Thanks amyb for posting about the BMI card thingy, was wondering if it still worked. Have acquired another voucher through swap so will have another go ;) . Fab shop BTW!

    Poundsinbucks x :D
    Mine beeped. The SA ended up overiding it and gave me the actual 50% off :eek: . I paid up - didn't want to go "Oh no, I don't want the offer on the coupon" so felt in an awkward position. So paid 50p instead of them giving me 400 points:eek: .
  • Just wanted to say, I LOOOOOVE the way you put all the little pics into your post ! It's so nice to see straight away what you are talking about (and what to look out for). (*It doesn't take much to please me:rotfl: *)

    I've got too much time on my hands:rotfl: Btw I went to Brent Cross all the No7 Suncare had been moved away from all the other bogof sun ranges, so I didn't even attempt it:rolleyes:

    For those who asked for clarification on the 641 from me earlier...my post was a bit mumbled. Crazyposhgal has got it right here

    However Pcg2001 has just confirmed here that 641 will not work this time around

    Looking forward to the Umberto Giannini glitch, it seems rude not to try :D

    :mad: :mad: #$% #** #*** ohh how weird some words don't seem to come out the way I type them:rotfl:

    Never mind we'll catch you again Mr Boots, sooner than you think:rotfl:

  • I've become totally addicted to this thread and bootsing. I used to buy the odd thing here and there before in Boots before discovering this thread, now I'm in there all the time ! Its terrible, when I read a glitch, its I have to try that and its costing me a fortune. So need to be good.

    I was so exciting to get my mailing, I got

    - 350 points wys £40
    - double points coupon (can use twice)
    - BOGOF on Dove Summer Glow
    - 100 points wyb Boots Eye Drops
    - 50 points wyb a Boots Essentials body lotion
    - £1.00 off wyb Abtustax leg spray
    - 10 free digital photos
    - 500 points wyb any product from No 7 P&P range

    Not bad I suppose

    So I'm hoping to get the following :
    3 x P&P Beauty Serum (3 for 2 and I really like this product) £16.75 each x 2 = £33.50
    4 x Jemma Kid nail file (£2 each) = £8.00 + 1000 points

    Total to pay £41.50
    use :
    500 points wyb No 7 P&P range (mailing coupon)
    350 points wys £40 (mailing coupon)
    250 point wys over £30 (acm coupon)
    double points coupon (normal points 166 x 2 = 332)
    (1000 points already mentioned above for JK nail files)

    So total to pay = £41.50
    Points 1932

    Do you think this will work ? Anyone think of any better of maximizing my points on this kind of spend (approx £40) ?
    When does the Jemma Kid offer finish (get 500 points when you buy 2 products) ?

    Also had a small shop in my local Boots, got :

    2 x Bts silver photo frames £2.50 (BOGOF)
    Belle Hair dye from clearance section = 11p (yes really 11p and in colour I use)
    Panasonic AAA (pack of 20) for 75p
    Cadbury cream egg (to keep my strength up for all this Bootsing)


    Total to pay £3.67
    used :
    200 points wyb any photo/frame from acm (got ages ago, only got 1 ever of these but have bought LOADS of albums/frames in clearance & BOGOF)

    Points received 212

    Not bad as my usual hairdye is normally £4.99 alone (so really all other things free and 212 points)
  • Oh and would I get a free No 7 GWP as I'm spending over £20 (I'm really excited now as I really like the pink box one)
  • Oh and would I get a free No 7 GWP as I'm spending over £20 (I'm really excited now as I really like the pink box one)

    That offer's now finished:(

    I think that one is unfortunately over. The Med one as well, no sign in store nor online.

    Botanics Radiance Beauty Balm was down to £2.25 on the SEL today plus buy one get one half price so two for £3.37-think this is the one they showed on "How to Look Good Naked" so it's worth looking out for. This was in Stockton on Tees, don't know whether it's nationwide.
    Also there were some No7 SPF15 sun lotions reduced to £3-don't know whether these are last year's stock though as they weren't with the rest of the suncare stuff but on the No7 counter but worth getting if you can get 200 points plus 342.

    Thanks for letting me know pcg2001 and my_old_mans_a_dustman.

    I'd still be happy to get the Beauty Serum on 3 for 2 without a GWP (shame theres not a glitch for 3 for 1, or 4 4 2 or even better 6 4 1 ! on that product)

    Did the rest of my list look ok, any way of boosting my points further ? Thanks

    just to say at my local boots (milton keynes westcroft) I went to get a kodack photo paper kit for g600 printers, and the 50 sheets kit was marked on the shelf as £19.99, but went through at £5, so I went back for another one and it did the same.. will be keeping an eye on any more turning up!!
