    Most of the Essentials range at my end is full price. Only found 2 things that were reduced.

    I really wish there was parity amongst all the branches. :(

  • I got two blue aromatherapy body sprays for free in the Beckton boots. They were priced at £1 each, but only came up as 50p though. Also got two candles and a Christmas set reduced from £8 to £2 (so £1 with voucher).

    The branch was also stripped bare of any TD products worth less than £5, there were no Look Great leaflets and there were big signs telling you to only take one leaflet per customer. I only saw it after I'd taken a handful of Destress ones though!

    What will I do when I can no longer feed my addiction to Boots freebies???

    I have far too many Time Delay things now so I'm going to be donating them to my local Cats Protection bazaar. That makes me feel better about going to Boots so often lately!

  • "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 !!! "

    Guess who was on guard today !!! yep she is still there, this woman must have one of the most boring jobs in Boots at the mo. Guarding the DR/TD shelves in Cardiff. I think she is glued to the floor ! I bet she will be glad when the promotion is over. Funny thing is most of the shelf labels read sorry out of stock anyway.

    Got the DR Rescue Balm today used the voucher and as they were on BOGOF spent £3 for stuff worth £16 YESSSSS!!!!!! Was at the Trafford Retail Park. No TD stuff @ £5 or £5:50. Stretford only had the line stuff @ £5:50 yesterday. I LOVE LOVE LOVE BOOTS particullarly when they are "treating" us SO well.Going a bit further afield tomorrow. What fun. Brand new to the site(although have been reading for ages-just TOO stupid to work out how to log on correctly. Have avvidly read all your wonderful tips. Many thanks to you all.

    dont give up if freebie vouchers arent on display! Just came back from abroad- assumed i'd missed this boat. was in Aldershot yesterday - suprise suprise no peach leaflets out. I asked 2 assistants no joy but no 3 searched- reached under a desk ABRACADABRA!!!! a fat wodge of them sealed in polythene came forth (about 100 odd!!). Could it be that staff are keeping a few back for themselves???
    Yes it works on DR BOGOFFS -2 products 1 voucher, and for DR clearance (half price) plus voucher. Some cashiers wont let you grab more than 1 freebee at at time, no problem, just use one till, then use other till elsewhere in shop, or if small branch come back later!!!
    even in kingston surrey today, loadsa purple leaflets out!!
    JUST ASK!!!! (apologies to the AA)

    I dont understand why they are keeping guard of the stuff, we dont want to steal it just have it for nothing, if they dont want us to have too many then put a notice up one per customer (and we will just keep coming back). They are giving us the stuff and paying for someone to guard it (dont make sense to me) - maybe she is there to tell us we can have it for nothing haha (mind you she didnt tell me sour puss).
  • Hiya Sandra - they were up from the DR range on the same side up a few aisles and a side display with aromatherapy range above it. There were some candles and pulse point gel there today. Unfortunately, no DR leaflets the lady on the pharmacy said they have ordered more stocks and they should be in store soon.

    On the way home from the office drove to Cardiff Bay Boots, no DR leaflets again BUT plentiful stocks of DR items, all reduced to mostly £5 or less, including the hand kit - shame I didn't have any vouchers. They didn't have any aromatheraphy items so couldn't use my vouchers to get any freebies. The DR is at the back of the store on the clearance shelves

    Hi

    I am gutted I hope they have some in Cardiff Bay tomorrow, the DR stuff is really nice and I usually pop over to the Bay in my lunch and I didnt today, thanks for the tip, will let you know if I get any. Also thanks for the pictures of the aromatherepy stuff will have a look and see if they have any left.
