I don't know how, but if you read through the last day or two of posts you should find it as I'm sure that has been explained recently.

The 250 pts & magic 500pts voucher will work with reduced items, but only if you hand over a mimimum 1p after your £5 off voucher has been taken off. Thats the only way i could get it to work for me and SA confirmed this. By jiggling items and playing with the till.

The only reducued items it will work on are the items were the reduction is on a SEL, as some of the reductions have reductions stickers on the back of the product, if you buy one of these items and the SA has to manually put the price reduction into the till it wont work.

Also you are all referring to the magic 500pts coupon as being from 1 of the OOTW i have had 4 of the vouchers ending 3176 and i only bought 2 OOTW, so therefore they must have put some of the same vouchers in the GWP, as that is the only place they could have come from.

This is not always the case. I did 6 transactions the other day on reduced suncare etc, in each case I spent enough to get a blinky back, yet still the voucher bleeped. It has worked since but only on full price items
Many thanks to Alexandrite who originally posted this anomaly :j :j

When buying the reduced items now I use the voucher that expires end of Jan, (from the GWP) and save my magic vouchers for full price deals.

Am I mad?

EDIT

It would seem I am, and I've removed the above so as not to draw anyone else into any possible dubious situations.

Oh I am really intrigued now 1878:rotfl: :rotfl: its like seeing the end of the film, and missing the start

That's cruel, who knows maybe I am in this same possible dubious situation;) If it's pregnancy.... deffo no. Please put me out my misery.

Ignore, me, a poster has quoted you, so message is still there

Hi, has anyone used the 50% capri sun mag voucher with a meal deal? What is the outcome? TIA

jamtart6

i can remember 75% off sales happening every year since 2003 so I cant imagine 2009 will be the year when they dont have one!! especially since Mr B needs our money more than ever!!

Hi,
log in to boots.com
go to 'my account' (at the top, in blue) *
click on the pink 'Advantage card' button
scroll down, your ac number is under your address details.
right at the bottom is a 'tick box' to remove your advantage card from your account.
tick that (make a note of your number first!)
log out
log back in, repeat above, this time adding in your ac number
now scroll back up, on the left is a tab for the health club, add yourself to the healthclub, click submit.
That should be it. hth


edit; * forgot to say remove yourself from the healthclub first.
I know this method sounds long winded but it worked for me.
Hi :hello: to catalunya, char_student, cabsy83, ladymac and chazbee

cabsy83

Just a thought but seeing as mini mode clothes are made by adams I think its reasonable to expect a big reduction on these too!

Hi mrsbb - does the no7 gwp gp through on less than the required spend then please? I only ask because I was going to buy something for £16.00 and didn't because I thought I would wait until I could get the spend up to qualify!
