Help!! I keep reading that you are all using the mag vouchers for 200 points when getting the time delay stuff with the till splits.I've tried this loads of times but get refused each time,SA(different ones each time) says Boots cant pay you to take away a free product, which I suppose is true,(never stopped them before!!);) but they wont even do it even if I've bought something more expensive and paid the difference.One SA did try it but it beeped and she made me feel so greedy I left it. Am I doing something wrong? Would have been so handy to boost my points.........

You could try handing over the points coupon first, before the tillspit (if you haven't already tried this!) If you have done this then it should work but obviously depends on a willing SA to try it for you. If all else fails, hey, least we got our free Time Delay!
I used up my 4 vouchers yesterday and totally forgot to use my coupons with them - was so annoyed with myself!

Yesterday I found some of the ruby&millie eyeshadow pallettes so thought I would try to buy one with no7 voucher.It wouldn't go through and kept beeping so the sa had a look and decided to overide, she did so and then changed her mind because the pallete was halfprice & decided I couldn't have it after all. I had to use my voucher on a r&m i brush in the end.In the same store on saturday I had purchased a ruby&millie mini brush kit from the mettalics range for free with the no7 voucher(it was reduced from £10 to £5 and that did not beep) and the sa had accidentlly given me 3 no7 vouchers intead of one:rotfl:.Also if anybody is looking for reduced perfume for future mini bootsers then barbie and bratz perfumes are reduced in the normal sections in hanley, also reductions on the purse sprays for morgan which are great little stocking fillers & I have noticed a few reductions in normal section on sanctuary bath accessories and mr mascara bath accessories.
If you have points to spend on a new perfume then diesal unlimited is very nice and has a lovely gorgeous bottle -also like the new jpg bottle madame which looks lovely too.
Has anybody tried Lancome hypnose parfum and is it nice?Off topic but I managed to get a bottle for £7.37 from Mr T and don't want to ruin the packaging in case I don't like it.I realise I have got a bargain:D
sorry for long post

I've not tried the TD vouchers yet as I've to find any of the under £5 items. Do the TD mag coupons always beep then and have to be overridden? Was going to use them on SS tills but I won't if they're gonna beep

i tried that ., i handed over time delay exfoliator and 200 points SA said have u got a till spit for this , i said yes and she goes "well you cant have the points then" she knew i was using the ts , so it does really depend on the SA , some are nice and accept the points some are nasty and dont,:)

Didn't get till spits when buying just TS for 1p yesterday, would have got a Mitchum as I know that works, pay 80p, but didn't have vouchers.

Is it just one Mitchum you need to buy then with the TS to get further till spits?

When I used the Mitchum voucher, 1 can cost me 15p....so can I get the TS and 1 mitchum and get till spits anybody????

Thanks for the advice(sorry I dont know how to quote earlier post!!) I hope I wasnt being greedy,:o was more than happy just to get my free/cheap TD stuff but saw what you guys did and wanted to try!! Perhaps I was just unlucky(SA's either really good or really bad round here!) but dont think I'll try again
Thanks again

I am looking for 500 points when you spend x on baby and the free changing bag when you buy nappies.

I've not got either of those, but do have other baby related ones, so please let me know if there are any others you can think of
