    A quick question regarding meal deals...
    How do you know what is classed as a snack? I love the sugar free bags of fruitella (£1.29 or similar!), and saw yesterday that they do them in Boots. They are placed away from where you would normally pick your snacks from. Is there a way to tell what's included and what isn't?

    even the staff dont know whats included in the meal deal as sometimes its totally random
  • Popped into boots to take advantage of the last day of the 2 for £3 on baby expert.

    Along with the expert stuff bought a toothbrush that was reduced half price to £24.99, used 1500 pts coupon WYS £30 +on an electric toothbrush and then used the £5 off voucher! Magic.

    Nice wee pressie for DH Christmas.

    Shop 1: Spent £30.18, saved £62.59 and gained 3240 in points.
    Shop 2: Spent £28.26, saved £54.39 and gained 1644 in points. (forgot to take the £5 off voucher in the shop with me! hurt.gif)

    POints card is now back up to £60 odd which is great!

    Oooh, I've nott been Boots shopping since the no7 vouchers finished, but popped into the small one down the road and got 1 a day chewy multi vitamins, 30 a box, 50 and 3 for 2! Got all 6 for £2, expiry sept 2009.

    Need to travel outbound soon though, somehow hurt my back sat/sunday, and want to get some heatpatches to help, getting the painkillers for half price with the health club offer was great :)

    Hi, just wondering if anyone who has the parenting club on both your and partners cards at the same address have had any problems with boots suspending your cards? After reading some of previous posts im wondering whether to cancel it from my dh's card or just leave it and take a chance, i definately dont want my card being suspended as I have too many points on it but if I cancel it from dps I wonder if it will draw attention to it - hope this makes sense! Think dp's card only has a couple of quid on it it hardly ever gets used

    Yes, people have had their cards pulled for just that reason (and lost their points, too). Apparently you can't have both parents claiming the same child (though why on earth Boots doesn't make that crystal clear online AND to staff at stores is beyond me).

    I used the voucher onthe first shop. I bought the oral b 8000 i think it was called. In the end i bought two as i can use th other one as a gift for my dad at Christmas too.

    The sa was very pleased that it worked and told me Im very lucky :rotfl:

    yeah i had all 3 cards cxxed by cs, lost points until i asked if cud hav anotha ordinary card, transferred me points (i'd spent most them cos knew was getting tugged); anyhow apparently they wont let u have ur points bak now?? I'd spend them especially if u r doing more than ur allocated coupons on the one card (which is known - ho ho). Spend them all and then cxx the other halfs card
