Better not to fight it - as you will be the recipient and be grossly overcharged by RM for any potential underpayment - they will hold your very important voucher booklet hostage until you pay up! I think they add something like a £1 "service/admin" charge on top of the shortfall in stampage...

That's what I was thinking ... when in doubt put too much postage, not too little, lol.

Just popping on to give my thoughts & best wishes to Dotchas re the op. Hope all goes well.

Apologies as off topic (kinda) but us Bootsers and our cars. Just driving to work this morning and some bloke decides to drive into my car on a roundabout for no apparent reason :mad: . I am fine just really shaken up as he drove into my side and i could see him coming at me but had nowhere to go. Am now sat waiting for the insurance to ring me back as they are 'busy'. Dweeby bloke showed no emotion whatsoever and i'm ranting and raving at him. B****y f*****g Idiot! Thing is my car still not got in from when i drove it into OH's van 3 weeks ago, i just know they are gonna write it off now. I am dreading all the hassle it causes, will have to get some Rescue Remedy i think

You poor thing - I hope you manage to feel calmer soon. Thinking good thoughts re the insurance company and all the rest for you.

ohhhhhh nooooo,

What is going on at Boots ,saw a lady having her details taken by s/a today.She had loads( and I mean loads) of expert baby stuff, in her basket and those red huggies boxes. SNIPPED

Can i ask how many was loads around 20, 30?


I was going to go to boots today, but had a arguement with mother (no change there) so yes, i haven't gone .

Can people post how any expert products they think is right, that won't be too much to get caught but still be able to get a decent amount off the total? Thanks

Good luck for your OP today dotchas! Will be thinking about you, please keep us posted so we know your okay! Best wishes hun.

Has anybody tried using the PC "Free Trevor Sorbie Professional Conditioner wyb any TS Prof Shampoo" combined with the mag's "Free product from TS Prof Long Hair range wyb any TS Prof Haircare Product"?

If I was to buy a shampoo, conditioner, and something from the LH range - styling or something, could I use both vouchers and only pay for the shampoo?

Hello!

I used my free conditioner PC voucher with the free TS mag voucher and got conditioner and shampoo free. The till beeped but the SA overrode the till. Not sure if the mag vouchers are still beeping or if someone has sorted them now........

I think at this point the only safe number of Expert products is zero. It may be time to abort this glitch as just too risky.

Otherwise, for those who still intend to do it, I'd guess six items at most (those things really pile up in your basket if you get more) and plenty of cover so that you spend a good 8 or 10 pounds over what is taken off. And use a few coupons you know will scan without a beep, so that you can put them between the two Expert coupons (might make them stand out less).

That's just my thoughts on it; keep in mind you'll still probably have people getting 12 or 14 items with little or no overage on the total and getting away with it, but that doesn't mean that you'll get away with it, too. Honestly, if I were Boots and people were getting a basket of Expert stuff free plus money off or back, I'd be getting serious about it, too! They aren't serious enough to just fix the tills it seems, but sounds like they are willing to get vindictive. Please be careful on this one!
