    Just popped on to say that I was refused the mitchum vouchers today - SA phoned Manager to come down and explain to me that they had had a note from head office to say that they were no longer accepted - I have done it about 6 times buying 2 at a time and only using 2 vouchers at a time since the glitch was first reported so I havn't torn the ar*** out of it I dont think just thought I would let you know that it might be comming to an end :(

    Do you mind saying what city or store this was in? I wonder how fast it will take other stores to follow suit, as other people have used the Mitchum today. And I wonder why they had to go through having the manager come down; it would've been far nicer for the SA to explain it!
  • There was nothing in there on Saturday either. Was there any of the TS serum left?

    No no Serum at all. Might try Solihull one end of week so will keep you posted!
    thers some in brum main boots.

    Rubbish Bootsing today :rolleyes:

    Tried to get Olay hand cream and a Ruby and Millie bag.
    Was holding till spits in my hand, the SA snatched the No 7 one out of my hand and said "You can only use the No 7 voucher, that's £4.97"!
    I pointed out the hand cream was Olay total effects, and that there was actually a red label next to the hand cream price label saying "You can use your £5 voucher on this product", but she was having none of it.
    It wasn't even her refusal that annoyed, me, it was her downright rudeness!
    I said I didn't want the hand cream and would pick something else with the voucher. She then went on to try to charge my £4.97- I had to politely ask her to void the hand cream 3 times before she actually did it!
    She begrudgingly voided it eventually, and then decided it wasn't right I should get the Ruby and Millie bag for nothing :rolleyes: despite having actually scanned the voucher, and the till accepting it, she then said "Oh no, you can't have this with the voucher as it's already reduced" :mad:
    So I ended up leaving it, and even then she tried to keep my vouchers!

    Then tried to get some Sanctuary face masks with the facial voucher (paid upstairs lol) but the moisturising one hasn't worked with the till spit so got charged full price for that :confused:

    It's a real pain as that was the last Olay hand cream on the shelf (wonder why they've all disappeared if you can't use the till spit on them :rolleyes: :p ).

    I don't object to them being strict on the t&c's- you're probably not meant to be able to get the handcream anyway with the voucher as it does say facial, but there is no need to be so rude!! Oh I would love SS tills so much, at least they can't be rude to you if it goes wrong :rotfl:

    Has put me right off Boots now. :(


    If that were me sweetie, I would report that SA, there is no need to be so rude!! She could've just said, 'I'm sorry I don't think you can use your voucher because its already reduced'. I know how you feel, this is how I felt a few weeks back, when a SA was rude to me, but don't give up - for every bad or rude SA there is a lovely one too *big huggles*

    Mitchum Tin-tin has checked on the 'store net' alerts...this is where the boots management pull off all updates regarding any store alerts...there is nothing regarding mitchum on this and it is the only way in which store managers recieve their information from head office.
