I can't see how it's policy, as if you want to return an item from dot com to a Boots store, I was told to return it to any Boots store. When I asked CS if they were sure (as I'd been refused previously) they said it's only a case of pressing a key on the till (or something) as there's supposed to be an option for Boots online items. I don't think many SAs were aware of it as when I did successfully return the item, it turned into a training exercise for the rest of the staff

Hth, but hope it makes sense too

I returned 3 of the 4 boxes of washing powder today (just didn't get along with it) to my local store. They don't stock any of that range but were quite happy to refund it. They refunded onto my debit card even though I paid with Paypal. I had to wait to see an assistant who knew how to do it but she was very friendly about it.

Thanks Ettenna

It does say on the Dispatch/Returns Note to take the note and items to your local store. No mention of 'local store that stocks the item' My local stocks the very basic of things - not much that anyone would order online iyswim?

It looks like some people are being fobbed off.

:eek: Hope they don't send your order 56+ times!
I've just had the one "despatched" email.

I wouldn't mind aslong as they didn't charge me 56 times!

Someone was asking about the time delay wipes - I had a reaction to them too - but had used the last ones ok.

I took 3 packs back, the opened one and 2 unopened ones without a receipt and asked if I could swap the sealed packets for Sanctuary wipes - which I know are fine for me as I got some with skincare spit too.

SA let me swap all 3 packets, i.e. the open one too, don't know how she put them through the till as the sancutary ones were a bit cheaper but she did it as a like for like swap and it was fine.

Cheap MF goodies sounds good - I'll have to keep my eyes peeled......

Got all my pinkies so I am going to head out this afternoon to get another no7 men deal with gwp and 3 mirrors and brush sets with 3 boxes chocs. Going to put them through in different transactions so keep getting ts. Have 5 pinkies and 1 t/s to start of with. Not sure if putting too much through on one day. But thinking about taking my mum to distract sa as she could talk hind legs of a donkey.

Hi
Is it ok to use a voucher from someone else's mailing - ie one with the wrong name on it?

Cheers

This will work, but the SA may query it. They do at my local Boots. Sometimes they let me use them, sometimes they don't.

Ha-ha! Good plan!
Can anyone remember when the John Frieda coupons run out?
