Currently, these are half-price, 59p. However, there is a voucher from the advantage card machine, giving 25% off shower gel or bubble bath, bringing the price down to 44p. You can only use 1 coupon per transaction.

Official MoneySavingExpert insert: Boots has confirmed that this offer will be available online and in stores until Tue 15 May 2012. Thanks to dollywops for sharing.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    In store at boots I put my card in the advantage machine and obtained 2 coupons to get 25% off bubblebath/shower gel.
    I saw that Boots Relaxing Bubble bath (500 ml I think) was 59p (half price) instead of £1.19 so went to the till and I was charged 29p. I went back to get another of course! I think it took 25% off twice somehow.

    So my friend tried her card in the machine and only got 10% off!

    Hiya...its because the 25% off comes off the original price atBoots...so its deducted 30p (25%)..and put it through at half price...hence the 29p to pay :) i think this always happens at Boots ;)
    hoping for a very MSE Ts glitching 2012!

    Looked in the ACM and only 25% off shampoo/conditioner and no bath gel etc! If there something similar I can do with that voucher?

    yeah- L'Oreal Elvive is half price at £1.94- if you use the 25% off coupon it takes it off the original price of £3.98 leaving only 96p to pay :-) 75% off full price- I have stocked up- was only allowed to print 3 coupons.

    Happy bargain hunting :-)

    I put my card in the machine and it let me print out 3 vouchers. As it says only 1 item per transaction on the voucher I only picked up 3 of the bath essences.

    The lady on the till said they wouldn't work as the item was already half price but she was prepared to give it a go and scanned them all together and used one of the vouchers which took 25% of £1.77.

    I asked her if she would scan them individually and she did, using a voucher for each one and they then went through at 29p each!

    Luckily I had a nice assistant and there wasn't a queue.

    My question is: Have I used up all my available vouchers for this offer or is iy renewed daily?

    they are not renewed daily, but you might find another one voucher on another day - I printed off all I could last Saturday and had another few of the same this week.

    This is still working. I managed to get 3 bubble bath vouchers (after putting my car back in :D).

    Radox (not all of them so check you get the right one) bubble bath is half price so kind assistant and 3 transactions later I have 2 x Boots bubble bath 29p each and also Radox 50p!!

    Wonder if it will give me some more tomorrow....there goes my no buying toiletries....well I had been good since March....managed 2 months without buying anything.
