Free Essential Aromatherapy items at Boots - Lilac change one thing (merged)

Options
Insert from Martin:

What is it?

Boots are currently running a 'Change One Thing' campaign for the New Year. As part of this there are a series of leaflets available in-store focusing on different topics.

In the 'Your Free Look Great Starter Pack' lilac coloured leaflet is a £1 voucher off Essential Aromatherapy products in Boots.

Whats the loophole?

There are lots of products in the Essential Aromatherapy range that are under £1 so this is a great freebie to bag! Items under £1 include the Orange Blossom bergomot blissful candle (74p), Grapefruit & Lime Awakening Hand Cream (87p) and the Pulse point gel (50p) (if you spot any more let us know below). In other words use the voucher and you'll get it free.

The important Terms and conditions on the voucher:

The voucher must be presented at the till before your transaction is progressed. Only one voucher can be used per transaction. This voucher is valid until 31/01/06. Photocopies of the voucher will not be accepted and the voucher is not transferable. This voucher cannot be used as part payment with Advantage Card points. Offer cannot be used on boots.com or bootsdirect.

Any issues:

The suspicion is that Boots wasn't really thinking that people would come in and grab multiple leaflets as they're able to do, and thus grab lots of freebies rather than discount. When this was the case with Boots Time Delay products last week (see thread) people reported stores running out of stock and leaflets being removed. Thus GO QUICK. GO QUICK. GO QUICK


Back to the original post...

____________________________________________________________

Good Afternoon, I went to Boots to get some Time Delay leaflets but unfortunately they were all gone and the SA advised they did not have any more (wonder why !). Anyway, I looked through the Boots Lilac De-stress leaflet and on the back inside page is a £1.00 voucher off the Essential Aromatherapy range.

So I looked in my big store as my local store doesn't stock this and found these 2 items:

Essential Aromatherapy pulse point gel - you rub it on your wrist, forehead etc, and it has a lovely lavender smell - priced at 50p

and

Essential Aromatherapy Orange Blossom bergomot blissful candle priced at 74p.

Both these items are therefore free with the voucher from De-stress, I tried it today and it worked each time (I got 2 of each). They smell lovely and well worth looking out for these and other products mentioned below, whilst looking out for the DR and TD ranges.

Hope this helps someone

    I got some foot scrub and foot creme gift set from the same range for 49p using the £1 off voucher.

    The cheapest thing I could find in that range in my local shops.

    I want a candle not fair only had the purple one in my local store.

    I couldnt find any of the Awake/Awakening stuff. Is it with the rest of the aromatherapy stuff?

    Do the offers continue after thursday? Is it just the leaflets that are being removed?

  • Hello Ellie2758 - I had to go into another town to a bigger store to see this range. It was next to the aromatherapy items. The vouchers for these items are valid until 31st January so "should" be availble until then. Today in my store the lilac leaflets were plentiful although the famous peach ones were all gone.
