    Would this work?

    I take the EA Pillow Mist Spray and the Ab Toner to the till. I get the SA to try the £1 EA voucher - it won't work, as the spray is from the EA miniatures range ... so I look all disappointed <practice disappointed look :( > and say 'oh well, if it doesn't go through the till then it obviously can't be used with that item', then I hand over the 2 vouchers for the Ab toner and ask sweetly 'oh well try these instead' :rolleyes: They'll be put through the till and hey! bingo!!! :D Free Ab Toner :rotfl:

    When handing over two vouchers for the same item, I recommend handing the SA one first, let them scan it in, and then reveal that you have a second voucher and ask them to give it a try. I have found that if you hand them both vouchers at the same time, they are not as likely to give it a try at all.

    could someone please answer me a quick couple of questions.
    does the £3.00 hair voucher work on reduced items? and what is the cheapest thing to purchase to use the 300pt AC voucher for N07 skin concentrates? i have a vague recollection of it being mentioned that it would work on any N07 skincare product :confused:
    please help,

    many thanks

    Hair care voucher worked on Saturday with Lee Stafford reduced stuff - I used 2 vouchers on 2 diff transactions, and both went through okay. :D

    The No 7 300 point AC voucher will work on most no 7 products, some people have even managed to use it when not buying anything from no 7 range, but it really depends on whether the SA will put it through the till ;) I bought a couple of No 7 fake tanning bag things for £6.00 each, to use as gifts, and put the vouchers through with these okay! :D

    Sorry not sure what the cheapest no 7 thing is for the range that it's meant to be used for, but I think that the stuff is all about £10 - £15.00 :eek:

    DH was meant to take me to Bristol with him today - as on Saturday I couldn't get an ab toner or gym ball and so wanted them! - but the devil got up and left before I was awake :eek: and I got up at 6.00am. Guess he's trying to tell me that this addiction is getting out of hand. Now my car won't work so can't even get to the local shops to see if any bargains appear - argh! :rolleyes:

    I'm going to phone him and tell him he needs to come home so that I can do a quick round of the local Boots stores before I go to work tonight - me, out of control ;) never! Good job this ends today and I can get back to normal for a while, before the next bargains start :D

  • Boots, Sutton Coldfield have a few DR reduced items on the shelves with reduced stuff by the doors at the front of the shop (bottom shelf )
    They have contour toning gel £7.75 (half price) and The phytoslender capsules £9 (half price) & both bogof. SO 2 for £2,75 and £4.00 respectively using DR/TD £5 voucher

    A few other bargains as well eg Groovy Chick Mug & marshmallows £1 , lots of other reduced stuff

    Bham bull ring have no TD under £7 and no DR reduced

    Bham New St station - no TD under £8

    Bham Main store by M&S is the same regarding TD/DR
    They had capsule gym balls and gym kits downstairs (or at least they did yesterday afternoon) no Ab trainers although I did see someone walking out of the store with one - hope it was one of you lot!! :rotfl:
    Also spotted some of the Blissful EA perfumes sprays £2 each or £1 with EA voucher. Upstairs on bottom shelf. (by Naked,Karmatherapy, Flower Therapy stuff quite close to back of store on same side as tills where the meal deals are, roughly in the vicinity of the 'ladies' items with the £1 coupons ;) )

    Small Boots in Arcade (cant remember name of the Arcade) - its opposite Snow HIll Station (Bham) have loads of No7 Skincare items reduced to half price. (Are Boots too lazy to transfer stock between stores? :confused: )
    The twin eye care day/night pack only £8 and some others of the more expensive items and a few Christmas bits /electricals reduced - on shelves just inside door.

    Phew.... just trying to decide where to try today - need my last fix !! :D

    Hope that lot helps someone/ saves someone a journey today

    Last day, I know, but this might help those who still have some of the TD/DR coupons AND the DR coupons too. You can use one of each against DR in one transaction, and therefore pay nothing (helpful if they have no reduced DR stuff in your local Boots).

    The coupons have different barcodes, so the till will take both together.

    I found this out because I bought some TD and DR in one transaction, and the coupons took money off both DR instead (saving me an extra £1).
