The comment was probably to do with the fact that the date of the sale is mentioned almost every page of the thread, and yet someone asks when it will be on almost every page, lol. I wasn't sure if you seriously wanted to know or were asking jokingly, lol. The link above gives what sounds like a reliable date.

You can use your points for anything, except, prescriptions, baby milk up to 6 months, stamps and gift cards.

I used my points before xmas to treat myself to a lancome perfume set - magnifique and its lovely.

Im really anoyed now RE: the NO you cant use the voucher as its already reduced malarky. Especially as its a 40 mile round trip and i went especially to print of loads of pics.

In fact in peeved with my boots totally today:
ACM has been 'out of sevice' since monday,
ALL the photo machines were 'out of service' and they have no idea when they'll be back on again, and the main printing machine was also 'not working due to unforseen circumstances',
my 250pts vouchers when you buy a No7 product WONT scan and the SA's refuse to add them manually even though i have met the conditions of the voucher. And i have about 8 of them.

So thats it MR B im not shopping in boots anymore till you get your staff trained properly and all your machines working. And you'll have my DF to answer to cos he'll start moaning when i start look like ive been dragged through a bush backwards, begin to adopt a not very nice smelling aroma, and make the kids cry cos i havent got my face on.

just take a glance at your dates on those 250 points vouchers, a couple of mine were declined, one i think for being just out out of date and on another occassion one was declined because it wasn't valid till the next day. If the date is good then i don't see why they aren't scanning if they are accompanying a No7 product. Hope you manage to get it sorted as that is a significant number of points to be diddled out of.

So you know its been asked a lot, but couldn't be bothered to read any of the thread as you just wanted it handed to you?

I wasn't having a dig, it's just that it has been asked rather a lot today. It's best to go have a look around before asking. Remember that you can search the forum too (search bar located top right, remember to click on the 'forum' and not 'main site' option though)

I don't think you were having much of a dig, lol. I'm all for us continuing politely answering the question about THE sale, as the helpfulness is what makes this a nice thread -- and I'm sure all of us have at some point asked something that was recently answered already. But I'm to the point I don't even care about grabbing 75% off items anymore, I just wish they'd start it NOW so that people would stop asking every hour on the hour when it will be!! lol

Of course, then the question might be "Has the sale started yet?" and "When is the 90% off sale?" And before anyone asks, it has been stated on here that the 90% off sale should be 28th Jan! lol

Went into Boots today as I thought that I would treat my dd to her favourite Clarins products. They had a lovely body lotion on offer but the sa said that I couldn't use my advantage points on that or the Clarins gift sets.

If you go to the Clarins website, it offers you free samples and a gift with every order...

Just been catching up on the thread and it has moved so fast over the last few days. I went to the new Westfield shopping centre today,
checked out the boots store of course, didn't see any ss tills.
Left all my vouchers at home and the ACMs were not working either. I think the big Brighton boots is bigger, but thats just my opinion.
Did get 2 phone top ups to get 2 blueys. Saw the new No7 gwp, thought it looked a bit small and cheaply made really, but the mineral makeup looked very nice.
They had moved all the half price xmas gifts into one small corner downstairs.

I_am_mad don't worry hun, you just asked on the back of an 'almost' argument regarding questions being asked(on top of the usual chat chatting lol) that has been going on for a bit (hope your well )

It is in fairness hard to search for the 75% sale as the search function does not recognise it etc

CPG...I know we are just technically speculating, but do you think when you get a tic you could pop the discussed speculated dates on the first post, it will not stop the question being raised again but it may reduce the amount of times? (BTW Hope your not to worn out!)
