Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 6..Read first post for current bargains

  • I went to Kirkstall (Leeds) branch on way home but there was no essential indulgence offer in my machine :-(

    I did treat myself to some new makeup though and got the free No7 gift bag which is full of goodies + 250 point skincare voucher as mentioned earlier.

    I tested a theory too. When the AC machine shows an offer and you click 'print' then the offer is still there on screen and you can print it again and again (tested on a 100 point haircare brand offer). So, aslong as you dont actually go through the till with your voucher then you can get more than 1 of each offer per AC card. All the vouchers only valid for 1 day though so prob more useful for those dedicated boots bargain hunters who can visit more than 1 store a day to spend them all without SA arguements!!!

    The No.7 voucher for 300 points (Skin Concentrates) wasn't in AC machine for me today it was replaced by one for 200 points for High Lights Illuminating Powders.. forgot to try it against another No.7 item so not sure if it will scan (with obliging SA's) like the other one did..

    I think that is all I talk about to my sisters and mum. Not sure my husband is all that interested so don't bother updating him about my bargains. Spend so much time between Boots and this website I can't get anything done. Arghhh

    Quick question. I let hubby loose in to Boots to buy me a few items for a valentines gift the other day.

    Anyway I have had sneaky peek (I know, I know)anyway I think they are going to have to be returned. They have not been opened and they are worth about £11 so If it return them and get some other things like oh say No7 items ;) and get the total to £15 + I would still get a freebie bag would I not.

    And as they are boots own brand it is ok even with out a recipt as long as they are not make up. That is right. As husband the wally has lost it.

    Just want to check before I get husband to return them.

    Yours

    Think you'll probably be fine as long as they're not time delay products I think they will probably have a lot of people trying to return these who have 'lost' their receipt!

    If you take something back to boots do you just go up to a normal till - I don't think they have a customer service desk in most stores do they. Have an unused Boots hot hairbrush thing and am wondering if I could take it in and swap it for things that are more useful - really need to make some space in my flat :o . Also people who return things - do you take the things you want to exchange to the till with you when you want to exchange them?

    Managed to pop into boots last night at about 7pm and they were changing the offers over, hadn't restocked TD but did have 1 face mask lying on the shelf so got that for £1 so well stocked with face masks thanks to boots now.

    I returned TD and DR items.. different days (no receipts)..

    The SA on perfume counter didn't want to exchange, DR item but went off to ask after I said it was unopened.. eventually came back and said it was ok to..

    Swapped a TD item, young girl on main till, exchanged no problem (after checking unused)
