Im so dissapointed, I was just getting all my Boots goodies looked out to see what was going in what hamper and what I still had to get, and I noticed my Breast Cancer lipgloss has a big finger smear over it!! I was sure i took ages picking one that noone had touched (not an easy job) its been stored away in a drawer so noone had touched it.
Anyway i realise I cant take it back or anything but does anyone know if they are still doing them? It was going in a special pink pamper hamper for my mum.

Hi does anyone know if you can use manufacturers MOC's in Boots and do you have to buy the product. Apologies if this has been discussed before. I only ask because Tesco lets you have money off even if you don't buy the product but I'd rather spend it in Boots.

Been away for over a week now...missed Bootsing!
Can anybody please advise how this would work?

Hi angel69, someone on a previous post mentioned the S & G bags going through for 1p - not tried it yet but if the bags also went through at 3 4 2 then would be 2p - worth a try as worst case scenario is 3p :j

Saw a couple of them reduced to £1.67 in my local Boots this morning...so hunt round you might find one

Also managed to get the Umberto Gianni shampoo and conditioner for blonde hair reduced to £1.05 a tube - then used 3 x 100 points vouchers from the ACM....marvellous! :rotfl:

Does anyone know if the blue voucher can be used against the Olay handcream, I know the facial vouchers in the past have included this item but was wondering about this blue voucher?

They still had them in my local but if you cant get them then they are still on .com too so you could get it delivered to your store

No, tried this morning!!! The sa tried a couple of things for me - all the things i would have bought so, unless I can get any roc wipes my blue's won't be being used:rolleyes:

I don't use anything harsh on my mush as I am a sensitive soul and all the offer things are a bit too heavy for me - may try and olay day cream if I get my £400 vouchers through from Park anytime soon - if they don't get delivered tomorrow I won't be going to this shopping event evening either:mad: . I can't justify spending cash when I am going to have vouchers which I have been paying for all year:o

Hi georgie262, supermarkets seem to be clamping down on coupon use and whilst Tesco accept coupons even if you don't purchase the product of late it seems to be 10% or one coupon which is fair enough. Boots seem very strict on coupons other than their own and in my experience would not allow you to use a coupon if you have not purchased the product. I'm not saying they wouldn't scan just they would not do it. I think someone on here once mentioned putting the mitchum vouchers through the ss tills without a purchase and it worked but not 100% certain.

I don't think I'd chance that I dont mind being a little bit cheeky and asking but I wouldn't just do it! I'd be scared of getting caught.:eek: I need to avoid boots til I get paid on the 18th anyway;)

I used the mitchum vouchers in boots but I had actually bought the product.They were on offer at £1.79 so each 1 cost me 29p!
