Lally, have you tried getting these freebies too with the lilac de-stress leaflets ?

Whilst looking for the DR and TD products also check out these 2 freebies which I found today, the voucher is in the Lilac de-stress as per thread below.

Went into local Boots - Loughborough - staff had never heard of the pamphlet they searched the store. Have every boots the same offer

They should do, it seems to be a countrywide thing. If you want some leaflets I have a few spare I can send you. I too am starting to get palpitations and think I need to go cold turkey!

When these vouchers first came out around 6th Jan, I went to a Boots with 8 vouchers, I asked if that was OK and she said yes, get as many as you want, I had another 8 vouchers in my purse so she said why not use them, which I did. Then she said, look they are free, it's a great deal, why not get some more !! so I got another 8 ripping the vouchers out of the booklets whilst stood at the till.

Yesterday, however, different store it was a completely different story, if only looks could kill !! I picked up 2 items and she moaned about scanning them through seperately, moaned to her colleague, rolled her eyes, and mentioned quite loudly that the manager was annoyed that people were using these vouchers (I mean how dare I!).

Funny thing is today in Cardiff Queen St, there is a woman on TD/DR voucher lookout, when I went in last week she asked if I needed help, Saturday she was still there and yep today still on duty !! I reckon she has a drip in place to feed her fluids as I swear she hasn't moved in the last 5 days !!! :rotfl:

I know I have previously mentioned this but my Nan died last week and with the TD/DR items I have collected from Boots I have arranged to donate them to the old people's home where my Nan lived, for their fund raising raffles and as a little treat for the people who were friendly, helping and nice to my Nan in her last few weeks.

I was in Canterbury Boots this pm, and they have moved the leaflets stand to near the cash tills. There were plenty of leaflets left, and I got some TD handcream. There were two security guards near the TD aisle, but they seemed far more interested in the woman behind me, who was undoing the boxes of concealers (not testers)and trying out the different colours!

There are plenty of TD products left, and there was a sign saying 3 for 2 as well.

Glad it was in Canterbury as other wise I would have said that was my mother.

She just pulls off anything like lipsticks and just opens them and tries them.

At that point I just run for the hills and pretend I don't who the hell she is.


:rotfl:

That is one reason why all lipsticks and eyeshadows etc should have a security seals on them. Even boxes of face creams as well.

But that is another story. And one I think I will take up with boots.
