    Thanks for the tip; I like the idea of using one at a time better as that will draw less attention.
    You're welcome... I think it was one of the vouchers you sent me a couple of months ago so it's thanks to you really! :D:)

    I'd love a 92 expert bar code if anyone has one spare. But what I'd like more than anything is some help organising my vouchers/shopping as in the post below! Any ideas appreciated!

    I get so confused reading this thread that I don't take advantage of half the glitches - and I never seem to get half the PC coupons and mailing thingies you lot get!

    However, I am planning a Boots raid this saturday and wondered if I could enlist the help of you expert ladies to get myself organised re maximising points. I want to buy a baby bath support and thought I would get a few nappies n tings to get me over the £20 for the extra 500pts. I have the following coupons and I need to know how to combine for best results.

    expert 93 half price coupon
    500pts wys £20 on baby products
    double points on pampers, boots, johnsons, heinz
    free expert post preg conditioner wyb post preg volumising shampoo (can this be combined with the 93 coupon??)
    save £1 on pampers new baby
    100 pts on botanics baby
    100pts always
    100pts on alldays

    Will the 500pts wys £20 kick in before all the discounts are taken off (eg the expert stuff?) If anyone can come up with ideas for combining and the order with which to present my coupons I would be most grateful!

    Sorry Jojob, I'm not really sure about baby combos - hopefully someone will be about soon who can help you. (missing broclo lots - she's soooooo good with the combos and helping with peoples shopping lists. Is she back soon?)

    The TS PC/mag voucher combo - I know it can be done, someone has done it without beeps I believe - but I've failed on 3 occasions so far - paid up for one out of the two twice and left it once, so would be really interested/grateful if someone who has done it has the time to do an 'instructions for dummies' post with pics :rotfl:

    Your combo;

    If you want to go for 3 items, I don't think the hand saviour will combine with those vouchers, as it's classed as 'washing and bathing', not skincare. If you can wait, maybe leave it for a combo to do if you plan on going for the GWP when the current 3for2 finishes? Or if you really want it now, replace with one of the items below but would mean forgoing one of the lots of 500 points;

    skincare 500pts - (over £10) Essential Moisture day cream - £11.50
    http://www.boots.com/brandtreatment/product_details_brand_treatment.jsp?productid=1069973&classificationid=1031593

    Liplicious - (400+100pts) £9.50? (new one not online)

    Suncare 500pts - (over £10) Anti Ageing Facial Sun Protection £10.50
    http://www.boots.com/brandtreatment/product_details_brand_treatment.jsp?productid=1082200&classificationid=1031599

    Total Spend would be £22 minus your £5 PC voucher with 1500 points


    That's what I did with similar vouchers. Hth :D

    Blingbabe, I've just looked out of my window whilst thinking about your hand saviour and your combo..... Unless you're going out of the country on holiday, let's face it - you don't actually need the suncare item...:rotfl: :rotfl:

    We have flood warnings for goodness sake! (cries whilst looking at my own stash of suncare items which will probably remain sadly unused)

    I think what would happen is if you bought 2 expert baby moisturising lotions for example...

    Till would ring up 2x £2.49

    Then take off the vouchers 1/2 price saving of 2@ £1.25

    Then take off the difference between the 2 items which would normally cost £4.98 together but are being sold as 2 for £3, so would take off £1.98 - leaving your total as

    £4.98 - £2.50 - £1.98 = £0.50 to pay

    Not tried it but pretty sure that's what would happen :T

    I did that one on Mon as well - blodwin is right. 2x bum balms @ £2.49 came to 50p in total with just the one voucher.

    I think if you got 2x top to toe wash etc @ £1.99 then it would cost:
    £1.99 + £1.99 original price
    - £1 - £1 1/2 price voucher
    - £0.98 for 2 for £3
    = £1 altogether.


    BTW - does anyone need any haircare till spits? My mum just gave me a load so I've got about 7 and don't think I will spend them all now looking at the weather. :eek: EDIT: All gone. You girls are quick. :D

    Great thanks for that, I would love to try this but I think I will wait for another brave soul to try it first...There are a couple of dragon SA's :mad: in my local Boots!!!
