Picked up my Boots.com order from the local Boots store today and the free No 7 gift i have to say, looks much better in the adverts than it did when i took it out of the carrier bag when i got home! It also smells a bit funny, like recycled tyre or something! Anyone else noticed that about the 'free gorgeous clutch bag'?

my friend got one and said it smelt awful so she doused it in perfume and then it smelt like a rubbery version of stella!

My AC seems to not work on some of the tills. It works fine in the AC machine but I'm abit worried that I won't be able to get it to work when the sale is on and am not keen to order a new one as it might not arrive in time for the sale!!!! Can I save receipts where points haven't been added and get customer service to add them manually for me??? If anyone knows the answer, would be grateful!!

Thanks

Angie

i'm glad i'm not the only one who thinks it smells bad!

I had thought of putting it up as a special gift, but now i think i'll give it as a stocking filler! The stuff inside is still an okay freebie but i can't believe i purchased more and more no 7 stuff just so i would qualify for getting it as a free gift :rolleyes:

I hope you get the rest of your order soon, fairy_gurl

I'm so gutted, went to do an order tonight and one of the main items I wanted is out of stock

What are they like for getting stuff back in? It wouldn't let me add it to my basket

yes, but you have to tell the SA to validate your receipt, before the transaction is completed, then a special bar code is printed on it. when you have your new card take it and all your receipts to the SA and they will add them on.

When i tried to order last week one of my items was out of stock too. I remembered someone saying use the quickshop way so i went to quickshop and put the code in and hey presto i was able to order one!!! It arrived on Monday - was sooo happy.

Hi

Does anyone know if the 10% offer on fragrance gift sets is in store too or just online?

Went out of town to see if I could pick up the pink bourjois tweezers with the £2 off voucher. Stepped through the doors and realized I had left the voucher at home:(

Decided to see if the tweezers were in store and yes..... they had loads. I decided to leave it and pick them up another time, so went to the AC machine and printed out some points coupons to use another time.
Found there was one for 45 extra points when you buy Appletize, (yes I know thats a bit random, but I was thirsty).
Noticed the drinks were 2 for £1.30, gave in my 2 x 45 point vouchers and they took them both...hello 90 points!

I mentioned to the SA that I had only come in to get the tweezers, so she said that the customer before me had not taken her voucher, so it would be alright if I used it. So I only paid 89p for them and they look quite good.

The AC machine also had another of the £5 off Botanics vouchers, on the screen it shows an orange scrunchie, with 3 tubes of shower and body products. Could not find it instore, but the SA said it should be in the indulgent bathing section in most stores. It has been said that it might be an expensive set, but having compared it to items in the xmas gift book, I think it could be a cheaper set. If anyone comes across it please let me know how much it is. Thanks.

It looks like a growing problem Sarah. I have had this problem on my Boots site for 9 days now and no sign of it changing. I have emailed Boots, and had reply that is is working (They lie) I have rang them up and its still the same.

Its is very annoying. I think that they are losing a lot of money as apparently CS say that loads of people are ringing in with the same problem.

Get it fixed Mr Boots as I am spending my money elsewhere, and its not in your store.

Once the error appears, it seems to hold on and mutate. I can still add stuff to my basket, I just can't get in to pay for it. :rolleyes:

EDIT Just noticed you are in Sarah,. Well done. Mine is still the same :rolleyes:
