    hi,
    is the EI in the smaller shops as well as the bigger ones?
    thanks
    sarah
    I've seen it in smaller shops. :)

    (There was an EI glitch a few weeks ago when the stuff was free! Completely free, plus you got the 150 points! That's how I know a lot about EI :D)

    This is a bit of a cheeky thing to do, but if you see an AC machine with a pink Out Of Order sign but it looks fine (i.e. there are adverts flashing on the screen), you can pull the sign off quite easily and use the machine. I've done it a couple of times, and so have others on these threads. ;)

    (I think someone once mentioned that they put the signs on deliberately when the store is busy... even though the machines are fine! So really it's Boots that's being cheeky! ;) )

    Its strange you should say that as two machines did appear to be as you described. The sneaky monkeys. will be back there tomorrow. Only 1 more day left off work so i need to get all the quality shopping done asap.

    Many thanks.
    Watch out, you never know who is about.

    i think when i have kids itll be their first word! :)
    My little boy has a potty from Boots (naturally -- paid for with points etc :)). Anyway, it has a Boots logo on it, and every time he sits on it, he points at the logo and says "Mummy shop!" :rotfl: :o

    (Brainwashing him already :D)

    agghh... printed my EI voucher from AC machine, but couldn't find anything in this range instore.. (small Boots branch) scoured high and low.. even had SA's looking for me, a supervisor said it wasn't a 'brand' but anything that isn't everyday bathing stuff :confused:

    didn't spot anything that resembled the things mentioned on here so was out of luck!... didn't use the voucher, wonder if it will give me another in a larger Boots store tomorrow?.. Any idea's whereabouts I'll find EI products?

    EEEK...!!!! spent 22 actual pounds on some No.7 stuff, treated myself.. was hard.. But did get the free bag, and scrummy Lindor choccies tho :)
  • Are the vouchers transferable from store to store. Also, if i get the voucher on my card can my sister then collect the points on her card.
    Thanks for any help.

    Yes, you can print out the vouchers in one store and then use them in another. You can also let your sister use the voucher providing the SA isn't too fussy and notices that the names on the card and voucher are different.

    I did this last week, and it turned out that the machine was broken. When I went past it as I entered the store, the adverts were playing on the screen and there was a handwritten "out of order" sign taped to it. After going on a hunt for TD and EA, I headed back to the No7 counter, where the machine was, and the sign had been removed. I put my card in, and the slot must have been broken as I had to force it in. The card didn't go right the way into the machine, but I couldn't pull it out as there was nothing for me to grab on to. I had to go and find an SA to rescue my card for me.
