    Any know the answer to this. I ahve botanics voucher to get a free day cream when you buy something else. Well I use the eye gel from that range. Now I am going to be getting husband to get me some as a present for valentines day. ( I know no surprises).

    Botanics skincare is BOGOF at the moment. So will he get both free or I am getting to freebie and bargain mad at the moment. Or will the till have a hissy fit :rotfl:


    Yours

    Partner and I took 4 free TD products to a till in Warrington Boots. Thought the lady looked a bit snotty, but I was wrong! She let us put all the TD stuff through and was amazed at it being free. I explained how it worked and she was so grateful! I said I was thinking of getting some more....so she said 'no problem, go ahead!' so not wanting to offend her, went off and got some more wipes. :D No leaflets left there, so gave her a few of mine so she could get some.

    Not much left in the sale there though.

    Hi....just come back from local boots in Scunthorpe..........no leaflets out and nearly out of time delay stuff.......got a couple of eye gels...........but they had just reduced all the rechargeable batteries at 50p a pack for 4 aa size energisers...........excellent......grabbed the lot usually around £6 for a packet.......got a few pressies to put away for next christmas.....should have thought and instead of spending £30 in one go with only one No7 voucher for £5 i should have put them through as 3 individual lots of £10 hence 3 vouchers........oh well, really pleased with items i bought...........

    Boots essential Aromatherapy Orange, Blossom & berrgamot Candle

    Yellow square candle with sliver wrapping card

    i found mine i the clearance section of my store but other poster have found them with the other boots aromatherapy products on the shelves (at the bottom)

    reduced to 74p (somne stores not showing discount on shelf but going through at tills)

    Use £1 voucher found in purple de-stress leaflet

    As vouchers are becoming limited - don't know if this would work for everyone but I decided to get 2 of the candles and expected to pay 48p as I only had one voucher but it came up at zero! I wonder if there is a BOGOF offer on that isn't listed or if the SA put voucher through twice.
    Used one of my £5 vouchers to buy No. 7 High Lights Illuminating Lotion which was half price at £4.75.
    Still getting 300 points from machine which can be used with the No. 7 Skincare Treats gift box which is £3.75 (was £15). These are ideal size for holidays, only seems to be Normal/Dry left but that is great for us grannies!
    With the Pure 100 points voucher got 2 x 500ml Moisture Cream Bath which, like the rest of the range, is BOGOF and costs £1.24, I think, certainly less than the 150 points you actually receive. You might have to look for them as they weren't on the same shelf as the other Pure bath/shower products.
    Found some fantastic Julien MacDonald black candles in glass containers down to £3.50 - great if you have any Goths to buy for!

    afternoon all,

    i can feel a trip to teesside park boots coming on. i might pop over tonight. will post later if find any mega bargains left!

    it was this time last year that i bought a load of pressies cheap , they lasted all year for birthdays, mothers day, xmas etc. i have no doubt that i saved a small fortune over the year. its lovely to think that you have pressies in and that you don't have to run to the shops and spend a fortune on bdays etc!!

    thanks for all the boots tips,

    love dorry
