Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 29 - Post your finds here

I got Med Preg Mini sets (the ones that are £9.99) both for free using the PC bogof coupon. :rotfl: (Thanks SS!)

However, when trying to get Model me the til beeped and I ended up having to leave it. SA said you cannot get points when using a till spit to also get money off.
My TS combo also beeped so could not get both for free. Ended up paying for one and getting one free with PC voucher. Did manage to use ACM 100 points too tho', so essentially £3.49 for the two. Am not going to bother with any more stupid TS or MM, its so annoying when these vouchers are out there and yet the tills dont recognise them. :rolleyes: I was stuck there for about 15 minutes while the supervisor held onto all my coupons and took me to another til, etc.
Got another TD hand cream for £1.25 using 200 points wyb any TD.

The Nivea young range seems to be reduced too, picked up an exfoilating face scrub for £1.25.

Also noticed the ROC patches ( ) reduced down to £1.** but didnt bother with them 'cos tbh I couldnt figure out what they were!

Found a clearance stand in my local that Ameliasmummy had mentioned that I didnt even know was still there!!!! Only those thyme bath thingies and TB mini scrubs there really tho' Will have to keep an eye on it now though!

So my day was good in terms of the Med bonus buy (without buying! LOL) but awful afterwards. Does anyone else feel like a highwayman when they call most of the staff over to work out why your combo wont go through the til?

Hiya Jellybaby,

I'm off Bootsing soon, may even venture to your local. Which TS voucher beeped, did you notice?

Think I may give up on the Model.Me too as I rarely get SA's willing to manually input the points.

Lucky you with the Med glitch though. Just wish I had a med BOGOF voucher to do this as have 2 newly pregnant friends that would love those sets, never mind. Hope there's some TD hand cream left, I love the smell.

I've bought a couple of the Nivea Young Face Wash stuff with points and I really like it so will probably get some more.

Just waiting for DH to come home with my car and hope he'll babysit for a bit for me. Bootsing is so much harder with a 3 year old and 19 month old in tow.

Must go and organise my vouchers.............lol

Sorry, you can't use a coupon when paying with points. And it seems like the TS coupon only works with a few things -- I think you just grabbed one where it doesn't work (probably the TS Moisturising & Defrizzing Conditioner). Sorry you didn't get your deals, that is such a downer!

Thanks skibster - ah well, I'm still learning!

Just attempting to add a siggy so this is a test post to see if it worked Sorry for being O/T.

Yay it worked

They had several sets left in Boots Bristol Cribbs Causeway on Saturday lunchtime (£2!!!) and they should now have one in the Gloucester Boots as I took it back yesterday (noticed after I got it home that the box was broken - yes, I know it was only £2 but it wold be no good as a present - and I very rarely buy stuff for little ol' me! Annoyed I didn't check it in the store on Sat tho' as there were plenty of others I could have picked up instead, doh!)

Oh thanks for that! I suffer with SAD quite badly in the winter, thought i would give it a go for £2!!! Will keep my eyes open!

hi i have been collecting points for years and had over 500.00 on my card they have now withdrawn it and took all my points off me i rang them and they said 3 people at my addy joined the parenting club and they didnt join it at all. and they will not give me my points any advice please im gutted been saving for years why oh why didnt i spend them before .

lilian1977

Write to them explaining that no one has joined the Parenting club, send it recorded. I'm pretty sure they're not actually allowed to take your points in that scenario anyway unless they have a pretty high level of certainty that you've been defrauding them in some way?
