  • Went to do a spot of late night shopping at Boots this evening after reading the thread today. Turns out the retail park has had a gas leak & so no one was allowed to enter :eek: Oh well, wasen't meant to be.
    Now thanks to Tommix & Queen Bear, now Lady Westy of Woodpecker :)

    Could someone please help as I've now got a bit lost on the board here.

    Today I got the EI, the 1800 points, the choccys and the £5 voucher. So, to get the No.7 gift set do I use the £5 voucher or can I use the 1500 points to buy something? I.e, could I buy No.7 suncream for example?

    Sorry to be a bother but I'm hooked on Boots but get all muddled sometimes!

    Hi

    Could someone please print a picture of what the eastern products look like? Are these the same as EI?

    2x Eastern body rub - Now 75p each.
    1x Easter body wrap - Now 75p
    2x Eastern body nourishing wrap - now 75p.
    All that glisters is not gold, except moneysavingexpert.com

    No they arent the same but the wrap cream stuff comes in a tub. It has a black lid and is a yucky green or yellow/orange colour. They have a small label and rest of pot is see through. Web site not working to find a pic.

    Yes, if you buy something with 1500 points from No. 7 range (e.g. suncream, makeup, skincare) you will then get the free pink bag and goodies.

    Whew, I go away for less than 24 hours and come back to over 200 new posts! :eek:
    I have a question for anyone who has been on this board for more than 6 months. Is it always as good as it has been since November? As I am unsure just how much to stock up on stuff. Also I wonder if I can stand the pace... :rotfl:
    I'd say it's been very good since November, but Boots have been very generous for a long time. :D

    The biggie glitches like the TD/DR probably come once/twice a year (anyone remember the Body Science bonanza? That was about a year ago, I think ;)), and smaller ones like the current EI loophole appear about every couple of months or so... The problem with the EI-type offers is obviously that not everyone gets the voucher from the machine -- but the majority of cardholders usually do.

    I haven't personally stocked up on the EI yet, as I've still got stuff from the last time it was free... :rolleyes: Probably will get a few more at the weekend if the offer is still going as would like to get my points balance up... :D
  • I would love to get some more of the Everyday Indulgence but I still have ten bottles from the last glitch that made them free!

    Mind you, I can feel the pull of Boots and will probably end up going in tomorrow :D
    Stopped smoking Jan 2007 after 23 years!
    Cigarettes NOT smoked = 240,945
    Smoke free days = 11 Years :T
    Cash saved so far = £125,45,11
  • Can anyone confirm that the EI voucher gives you 150 points for ALL EI products in the transaction, regardless of what they are (eg handwash, body lotion, etc)?

    I seem to remember a MSEr posting something about buying a mixture of handwashes and body lotions and only getting the points on the handwashes.

    I need to know because I am hoping to stock up on body lotion only.

    Thanks.
  • Found Bodyform on offer at 99p in Boots (free with voucher)with vouchers on the pack.
    Must try to get somemore tommorrow.
    I am I right in thinking that you only get a EI voucher every second day i.e If you got one today you wouldn't get another tommorrow?

    Apparently you only get one, so use it well!
