    as well as the 200 points wyb any no7 suncare or self- tan product from
    the boots mag.


    This is an old offer, no 200pts in the new magazine.

    You can use the 500pts ACM and/or 5.00 off No7 PC.

    Hi all!

    Had a good Boots shop today, bought £10 worth of baby products-
    stocked up on johnsons baby oil to get my eye make up off every night :o
    used 500 points wys £10 on baby products voucher and the double points
    on baby products voucher, got 580 points on a £10 spend :D

    However, now I am a little confused about this no7 deal going on- I have
    the acm 500 points wys £10 on no7 facial suncare (or something) voucher,
    as well as the 200 points wyb any no7 suncare or self- tan product from
    the boots mag.

    Am I right in thinking that both vouchers can be used together, as they are
    both for no7 suncare? (i.e. 700 points back on a £10 spend?)
    also, do you get the no7 gwp if you buy the no7
    suncare? :confused: If so, can anyone please tell me what to buy with the least
    amount payable.

    Many thanks in advance

    200 points wyb any no7 suncare or self-tan product from mag finished 01/07/08

    I used one of those digital printing vouchers from the mag today. I ordered 8 6x4 photos on 24 hour service. Picked them up today and the SA started to say that I couldn't use it - had to be used on the 1 hour service.

    She seemed to think that because it says "Free Boots digital photos worth £1.50 - for example five free 6x4 prints on the one hour digital processing service" that was the only service that could be used. I tried to explain to her that I read it as you could use it on any service and it was worth £1.50 off digital processing.

    I asked her to try scanning it but she said it wouldn't work. She got in a bit of a strop and put the photos through at 10p total (£1.60 less £1.50) and then tried to scan the voucher. Suprise suprise it didn't work and she took great delight in telling me that it wouldn't work.

    On the voucher it tells staff to calculate the order normally and then scan the coupon and it would take off the discount. No wonder it wouldn't work.

    Has anyone else had any problems with staff taking this voucher??

    And also found some Simple wipes reduced to £1.50 and on 342 :) Got 3 and might go back for more later.

    Ugh, sounds similar to a problem I had with my Kodak voucher, which turned into a big mess and I didn't get the free med product I probably should've. I won't use Boots photo processing again no matter what the discount, as it's way over-priced without the vouchers, and with the vouchers you risk getting an SA who is surly/clueless and you may not get the deal (and it's hard to say "I'll leave it then" when it's your personal pictures!). Which is odd, as the photo staff are great for everything else - glitches (if not on photos) and returns, lol.

    29th is Tuesday :)

    There are 3 Botanics offers...
    £5 for 2 haircare
    3for2 washing and bathing (which would include the shower gel)
    Free wipes(quick fix cleansing-not sensitive cleansing or pore perfecting, even though all same price!!!) that are with selected facial and body (only appear to be on body items that you do not use to get clean ie: foot range, cream, lotions and scrubs).

    When i did my expert shop last week, apart from the 500pt voucher used, there were standard points, double points(voucher)and tripple points(instore offer) on them...seems the tills have been changed :)

    I got the Botanics sensitive facial wipes free yesterday with clearance Botanics face masks. They scanned as free on their own; the SA didn't have to override it or anything. hth

    Big thanks to MEGANE for sending me the link to the new MC voucher that doesn't expire until 28 August (there should be no problem using it for next month's issue). I was too sicky to get out today and was just moaning to the hubby about missing a voucher, and now I have it, lol. Here it is:

    I saw some for a pound on clearance. It's gone now, but perhaps it means other stores will be marking it down?

    Thanks, skibster.
    This stuff is luverly - at £1 a go, I'd spend ALL:eek: my points on it - but I guess I'd better give in and buy one at £6.99, before it goes up any more in my local. Was £3.99 when I bought the last lot!
    I can't imagine life without it (hmmm... if I use DH's card, I'll get his over-60's discount....)
