    Just in case anyone's thinking what I was thinking, the voucher for 50 extra points for Weight Watchers meal bars (£1.29) from a different Change One Thing leaflet (the weight loss one) DOES NOT work on the smaller Weight Watchers snack bars (59p). :o

    Today used the £5 Time Delay vouchers and got 1xcleansing wipes=free 1xtoner=free and 1x cleanser=Free! was very pleased and grabbed a few more leaflets on the way out the door.
    One question though - each time the SA asked for my advantage card but no points were added :confused: Is this because I didnt actually pay for anything? :confused:
    TIA

    I think they are programmed to ask for your advantage card and yes - you will not have got any points because you didn't pay anything.

    If you were going to get a few of these products and nothing else I'd be tempted not to give my advantage card as I am wondering if it realises how many products you are ( not ) buying? ( see my earlier post ).

    Anyone know if you can top up your Virgin phone at Boots without a top up card - ie. buy a voucher or a printed receipt?
    It's great that you get the £5 voucher.

    I got a few of the time delay bargains today in the Newcastle store but used different tills out of fear. My (much more brazen) friend asked for 3 transactions to be put through at once and no eyelids were batted. I have a feeling, however, that as this offer has only just gone on, the staff are not used to it yet, and haven't had to deal with mass abusers of the hospitality of boots (i.e. us :)). Some of the staff don't seem to care, but others seem to take it personally, as if we are taking the discount out of their wages.

    Anyway, to answer my question of this morning, the Daniele Ryman nail set (4 items in a bag - nice gift set) is £8.49 BOGOF, and both went through with one voucher (i.e I got both sets for £3.49).

    Also, the stuff was fair flying out the door, the shelves were half empty by 10am ! and the leaflet stand was by far the most depleted of the six "change one thing". Can't see this offer running and running ! This was Newcastle City Centre store.

    The ACM gave me nothing ! (well the usual clutch of digitial photo, eye tests etc...) but no decent vouchers.

    I bought a full set of the Time Delay stuff - plus paid 50p each for the eye brightener and line stuff. (it`s girly products and im` a bloke - don`t know the proper terms! )

    anyway all through 1 till as seperate transactions - not a problem. :)
